1) What Thermage FLX Does

Thermage FLX delivers monopolar radiofrequency to uniformly heat the dermis and fibrous septae, triggering immediate collagen contraction and a months-long remodeling process for firmer, tighter-looking skin.

2) Why Choose Min Clinic for Thermage

Physician-led protocols, careful parameter selection by area and skin type, and photo-based progress tracking—so results aim for “refreshed and lifted” rather than overdone.

3) Best Candidates

Mild to moderate laxity, softened jawline, early jowls, under-eye crepe, or post-weight-loss skin looseness. Works for most skin tones when settings and passes are tailored.

4) Areas We Treat

Full face, jawline, cheeks, forehead, eyes (upper/lower lids), submental/under-chin, neck, and select body zones (upper arms, abdomen, knees) when appropriate.

5) Session Flow at Min Clinic

Consultation and skin typing → treatment mapping → coupling fluid and tip placement → controlled RF passes with feedback on comfort → post-cooling and aftercare instructions.

6) Comfort, Safety, and Downtime

The FLX platform optimizes energy delivery and cooling for tolerability. Expect transient redness or warmth that typically subsides within hours; makeup is usually fine the next day.

7) Results Timeline & Longevity

A subtle “tightened” feel can be immediate from collagen contraction. Visible lift and texture refinement build from 4–8 weeks, peaking around 3 months, with result longevity often 9–12+ months depending on skin biology and habits.

8) Thermage vs. Other Tightening Options

Compared with microfocused ultrasound options, Thermage FLX emphasizes broad, uniform dermal heating and is needle-free. It pairs well with collagen stimulators or RF microneedling on separate timelines when goals require.

9) Aftercare Essentials

Hydrate well, moisturize, and use broad-spectrum SPF 50+. Avoid intense heat exposure (sauna/hot yoga) for 24 hours. Maintain consistent skincare (gentle retinoids, peptides, sunscreen) to extend benefits.

10) Pricing & Treatment Planning

Investment varies by area (face/eyes/neck/body) and goal complexity. You’ll receive a transparent quote and calendar plan (often one comprehensive session, with optional yearly maintenance).

FAQs

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients choose a single comprehensive session with optional maintenance after 9–12+ months.

Can Thermage FLX replace a facelift?

No—this is a non-surgical tightening option for early to moderate laxity. It can delay or reduce the need for surgery, depending on goals.

Is it safe for darker skin tones?

Yes, with appropriate settings and technique. Thermage is color blind and does not rely on melanin targeting.

Will I look “puffy”?

Temporary, mild swelling can occur and typically settles within hours to a day. The endpoint aim is natural definition, not bulk.

Can I combine it with fillers or toxins?

Yes—sequencing matters. Many plans use toxins first (2–3 weeks prior) or fillers after tissue tightening has settled. Your clinician will map the order and spacing.
