What Is Thermage
Thermage is a professional, non-invasive radiofrequency aesthetic treatment designed to support the cosmetic improvement of skin firmness, texture and overall appearance.
This treatment delivers controlled radiofrequency energy to the skin surface using a specialised applicator. The energy is applied in a measured and targeted manner to support gradual visual refinement of the treated area over time.
Thermage FLX represents an advanced generation of this technology, offering optimised treatment algorithms and enhanced comfort features to support efficient and consistent treatment delivery.

Most clients experience minimal downtime. Temporary redness, warmth or mild sensitivity may occur and typically settles shortly after the session.
Treatment Applications
Thermage may be selected by clients seeking improvement in the appearance of:
Skin firmness and tone
Skin texture irregularities
General signs of skin ageing
Overall skin smoothness and clarity
Individual results vary, and multiple treatments may be recommended.
