How RF Energy Contouring Works

The Thermi250 is a specialized device that produces a programmed delivery of radiofrequency energy. It looks like a wand and has a gentle, rounded metal tip. The wand is moved over the area to be treated, and the lower dermal layers are slowly warmed up. As the tissue temperature rises, the computer to which the wand is attached reprograms the device to deliver a different energy output.

Existing collagen shrinks and the area being treated becomes slightly inflamed. This stimulates the production of collagen, and the result is a firmer support tissue beneath the skin. Fat is also heated, and the body transports the excess fat away via the circulatory and lymphatic systems.

What Patients Should Expect

Before the Termi250 is used, a coupling gel is applied to the skin. This helps keep the epidermis from heating up and also concentrates the energy directed toward the lower dermal layers. Each section of skin being treated is subjected to the gentle heat for about five minutes.

Patients feel no discomfort. Instead, they describe the treatment process much like a gentle massage. In most cases, the treated area is allowed to cool, and the process is repeated one or two times.

Long-Lasting Results

As collagen production increases, the skin becomes more smooth and elastic, while wrinkles and fine lines begin to disappear. In the areas around the waist and belly, the excess fat is slightly redistributed. More importantly, however, the large folds decrease in size. The result for the patient is a smoother waist without the saggy fat deposits.

There is no danger of overheating because the temperature of the skin is constantly monitored. When the session is complete, the skin and underlying tissue quickly cools down to normal temperature. The visual results last a long time because of the increase in healthy collagen tissue.

Who Is A Candidate For Thermi250?

Adult men and women who have excess fat deposits in their abdominal areas, waist, and lower belly are certain to benefit from this type of RF contouring treatment. An initial consultation is necessary to determine the extent of the treatment. Our clients are given complete information about the effectiveness of Thermi250 during a consultation.

After a simple injection of anesthetic into the target area, we use radio frequencies from a computer regulated probe to heat specific areas of the body. The procedure is extremely precise in its execution and is designed to melt fat in the targeted area. Once the fat has been melted, it is eliminated from the body through waste. Unlike most cosmetic procedures results are immediate, and patients can resume normal activity within 24 hours.

While exercise is always a great way to improve physical well-being, the body cannot will itself to target areas more prone to fat storage. Yes, exercise does reduce fat. However, the human body will lose fat where it wants and will, in its time, attack our “problem areas.”

Thermi Aesthetics Skin Tightening immediately targets the back, arms, thighs, buttock, love handles and other areas that seem impervious to exercise. Because swelling is minimal, results can be enjoyed right away. Thermi Aesthetic Skin Tightening is a friendly procedure that can be done right in our office.

The ideal candidate is one who desires a procedure that yields a result of several years. Candidates will also include those who live generally healthy lives, exercise regularly; yet maintain pockets of fat that is often synonymous with age or children. Whether its fine lines or loose skin around the neck and jaw, Thermi Aesthetic Skin Tightening can help you reclaim your youthful appearance that matches your energetic spirit.
