Thermage Lifting
Procedure Summary
Thermage FLX is the most powerful skin tightening procedure currently available, using radiofrequency thermal energy to smooth and firm both the dermis and surface layers of the skin. The evolved Thermage FLX from the 3rd generation is recommended for those who want to experience various effects such as skin elasticity, tightening and lifting effects, and fine wrinkle improvement without surgery. Furthermore, Thermage incorporates an automatic adjustment algorithm technology that controls the timing and amount of energy delivered, providing suitable energy based on the thickness of different skin areas.
Thermage Lifting
Procedure Features
-
A non-surgical procedure that improves elasticity by regenerating collagen in the skin.
-
Upgraded Total Tip with double the effectiveness compared to the existing version for rapid and effective elasticity improvement and lifting.

Promotes collagen regeneration by causing denaturation and contraction of collagen fibers in the skin through radiofrequency energy.
-
Proven safety with KFDA and FDA approvals, and provides a comfortable procedure with minimal pain.
Thermage Lifting
Procedure Principle
Thermage FLX uses radiofrequency currents for the non-invasive treatment of wrinkles around the eyes and face through tissue coagulation. By cooling the epidermis and generating heat in the dermal tissue, it efficiently delivers radiofrequency energy, causing the denaturation and contraction of collagen fibers, effectively promoting collagen regeneration and wrinkle improvement in the skin.

FAQ
Thermage CPT is the previous generation model of Thermage FLX. Thermage FLX has superior pain reduction effects and a more sophisticated radiofrequency radiation system, allowing for quicker procedures.
Thermage uses radiofrequency energy and primarily targets the dermis. Its main effects include skin tightening and improvement of fine wrinkles. On the other hand, Ulthera uses ultrasound technology and mainly targets the SMAS layer, offering lifting effects for sagging skin.
Thermage FLX uses vibration energy from radiofrequency instead of light-based energy. Therefore, it can be performed regardless of skin color. However, as the skin may become sensitive after the procedure, regular use of sunscreen is recommended.
The latest Thermage does not require anesthesia, reducing the procedure time to about 40–60 minutes. However, if cream anesthesia is applied, including consultation, it may take about 1–1.5 hours depending on the individual.
In some cases, results can be seen immediately after the Thermage procedure. However, depending on individual collagen regeneration capabilities, results may appear over 3 months post-procedure.
