Thermage FLX System
Thermage FLX is a new generation of high-tech intelligent skin tightening treatment. Through the exclusive technology of unipolar radio waves and the principle of 3D volumetric heating, it accurately reaches the dermis and subcutaneous tissues, and through the effect of whole-layer heating, it helps to stimulate the action of more collagen and elastin, and activate the body's automatic repair response to achieve the effect of smoothing the wrinkles and tightening the skin. It also restores the skin's elasticity.

3D Heating: Activating Collagen Rejuvenation and Reactivation
4.0 Purple Drill Probe: 33% increase in contact area, 25% increase in efficiency
Principle of action
The Thermage FLX system vibrates about 6.78 million high-frequency radio waves (RF) per second, generating electric currents in the surface layer of the skin and directing them to the deeper layers of the skin, generating heat at 55-65 degrees Celsius, which results in wrinkle reduction, skin texture improvement and skin tightening, and continues to induce the action of collagen to rejuvenate the sagging skin.
AccuREP Intelligent Optimization Technology x 3D Volumetric Heating
The exclusive patented AI system performs in-depth calculations within 10 milliseconds of each shot, automatically and precisely detecting every inch of the skin's needs and adjusting to the optimal customized energy to optimize treatment performance.
3D volumetric heating effect in X, Y, and Z directions to achieve firming effect.
3 types of probes - different parts of the body Precise action
The new generation of Thermage FLX 4.0 Purple Diamond Intelligent Probe has a larger area of contact with the skin than its predecessor, and the speed of the treatment is dramatically increased by its comprehensive coverage.

Q & A
With Thermage FLX, you can see the firming and lifting effect of the skin immediately after the procedure, and the effect is most obvious 3-6 months after the procedure. If you maintain a good lifestyle and diet, as well as adequate daily skin moisturization, the effect can last for about 1 to 1.5 years depending on individual skin conditions.
Generally speaking, after Thermage FLX, a slight redness and numbness will appear on the skin, which usually subsides within 24 hours. Thermage FLX is a non-invasive treatment, and no special skin care is required after the treatment, as long as the basic moisturizing and sun care are sufficient.
Thermage FLX is a non-invasive procedure, and the upgraded multi-directional circular vibration of the new generation of equipment can greatly reduce the pain sensation, coupled with the cooling sensation produced by the segmented refrigerant, which can immediately relieve the heat of the radio waves and enhance the comfort of the treatment. If you have a low tolerance for pain, it is recommended that you consult a professional doctor before the treatment to assess whether or not to use local anesthesia.
After Thermage FLX, if you maintain a good lifestyle and diet and moisturize your skin, the effect will last for about 1 to 1.5 years. If you want to keep your skin in the best condition at all times, it is recommended that you return to the clinic every six months to one year for regular treatments.
Skin has 70% collagen, but after 25 years old, it will start to lose 1~2% per year. Therefore, it is recommended to apply Thermage FLX after 25 years old to prevent skin relaxation and aging phenomenon as early as possible.
The depth of action of Ulthera Sonic Lift and Thermage FLX is different. Ulthera Sonic Lift mainly works on the SMAS fascia layer with fractional heating, while Thermage FLX works on the dermis layer with volumetric heating to reach the dermis layer through heat conduction. If we describe it as a cosmetic product, radio wave is like a foundation, which acts on the face comprehensively and extensively, while sound wave is like a concealer, which acts on the skin locally, point by point, and deeply.
Pre- and Post-operative Precautions
Pre-operative Note- 01People with heart disease, pacemakers, pregnant women, scleroderma, and lymphoedema are not suitable for this program and need to be evaluated by a physician before scheduling the program.
- 02Patients with a history of photosensitivity, severe skin diseases, immune system abnormalities, special medications, long-lasting fillers (e.g., gelatin, Yardmax, etc.) or permanent implants (e.g., artificial noses, artificial chins, etc.) should discuss with their doctors before having the procedure performed.
