Are you interested in smoothing and tightening facial skin without the worry or complications that surgical or invasive procedures sometimes create? At Mariposa Aesthetics & Laser Center, we offer a number of non-surgical, non-invasive treatments to assist with this common aesthetic issue.
One of the newest and most effective is ThermiSmooth. This treatment can help revitalize your skin’s texture and appearance without surgery. ThermiSmooth treatments align with our ethos of delivering efficient aesthetic medicine that can often be administered within short timeframes, such as a lunch break, helping you seamlessly integrate treatments into your busy schedule.
What Is ThermiSmooth?
ThermiSmooth is a device that uses radiofrequency waves to help smooth and tighten facial skin. It is helpful in the treatment of mild to moderate facial lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture, and even early signs of sagging and looseness. The most common facial areas for ThermiSmooth treatment are:
- Forehead: The forehead is often one of the first areas to show signs of aging due to repetitive facial expressions and environmental factors. With ThermiSmooth, it’s possible to address these early indicators, giving the forehead a smoother and more youthful appearance.
- Lower eyelids: The delicate skin around the eyes can become lax and develop fine lines over time. ThermiSmooth eyes is a targeted approach that helps refine the skin texture beneath the eyes, aiding in the reduction of crepey skin and imparting a fresher look.
- Jawline and Chin: The contour of the jawline and chin can lose its definition with age, resulting in a less defined profile. ThermiSmooth assists in enhancing the firmness of this region, creating a sharper and more refined silhouette.
- Neck: The skin on the neck can become slack, leading to the appearance of “turkey neck” or horizontal neck lines. With ThermiSmooth, the neck can regain a firmer and smoother appearance, complementing the facial aesthetic.
- Lips: Over time, lips can lose their plumpness and develop vertical lines. ThermiSmooth can be used to rejuvenate the lip area, helping to smooth away lines and restore a more youthful pout.
How Does ThermiSmooth Work?
ThermiSmooth works by delivering heat in a very precise way to the surface of the skin. The sensation is like a warm massage. This heat stimulates the natural collagen in your skin; collagen is the protein that helps keep our skin tight, toned, supple, and smooth. When the collagen is stimulated, new collagen grows and skin improves both immediately after treatment and over time.
The process of a ThermiSmooth is very simple to understand. One of our skilled medspa practitioners uses the special handpiece on the surface of the skin being treated. The radio frequency heat delivery system — known as ThermiRF — is set to the specific temperature for the best results. The technician then moves the handpiece over your skin in sweeps or gentle circles, and the skin is gradually heated with no discomfort or pain for you.
As your skin heats up, the handpiece automatically regulates to ensure constant, precise heat to treat problem areas. Generally, small areas of skin are treated for about five minutes at a time, and the best results occur after several repeated sessions with ThermiSmooth.
