I discuss the potential risks of fat atrophy and fat melting associated with Thermage treatments. I explore three scenarios that can lead to these issues: using older, refurbished platforms with swapped parts to cut costs; having untrained or unskilled providers who don't understand proper temperature ranges and patient biofeedback; and the use of numbing agents, which we never do in our office for Thermage procedures. #thermage #skincare #skin treatments #aesthetic procedures
In this video, I explore the critical aspects of using radio frequency for skin tightening and collagen stimulation. I explain how the temperature range and depth of the radio frequency arc are crucial for achieving desired results without melting fat. I also discuss how newer platforms have built-in safeguards to prevent overheating. #thermage #skincare #skin treatments #aesthetic procedures
Thermage and similar devices use various forms of energy like radiofrequency, ultrasound, and microwaves to stimulate collagen production in the skin. I break down the science behind these treatments and how they work to improve skin appearance. #thermage #skincare #skin treatments #aesthetic procedures #laser treatment
