Thermage is actually used or designed for tightening the skin, to replace the lifting of the face or any part of the body, abdomen redundancy of skin. It could be used after child delivery or losing a lot of Wight, and also after liposuction, to remove the extra skin and contouring, also an addition for contouring any part of the body and removing extra fat, and improving cellulite, if the cellulite is severe I can see it when the patient is laying down, if not it could be seen when the patient is standing.

What will happen to the skin of the patient immediately after the procedure is done?
Everybody tries to escape major surgeries, to avoid sleeping at the hospital going under general anesthesia; in addition surgeries leaves scars long cuts which are hard to remove, like face lifting, it's more expensive and if it's done wrong it could have so many side effects, thermage does not give the same exact result as plastic surgery but it improves the three functions: tightening the skin, reducing fat, improving cellulite.
