Thermage® Treatment - skin tightening in munich

Who is the Thermage® treatment suitable for?

As we get older, our skin loses firmness and elasticity. The signs of aging are particularly noticeable on the face and around the eyes: the first signs of sagging cheeks, fine lines, or drooping eyelids (hooded eyes) can make us appear older than we would like. However, decreasing skin firmness also becomes visible in other areas of the body: the dreaded “bat wings” on the upper arms, unwanted fat deposits, and loose skin on the abdomen—especially after pregnancy or weight loss. The décolleté also suffers and loses its youthful firmness.

The Thermage® procedure offers a gentle yet comprehensive option for rejuvenating the skin. This non-invasive treatment is suitable for nearly all patients. Our experienced dermatologists will always assess each individual case to determine if the Thermage® treatment can provide you with the best possible results.

Good to know: Our practice in Munich has been successfully using the Thermage® procedure for over 10 years.

Uncover the Secret to Youthful, Radiant Skin: How the Thermage® Treatment Works!

Thermage® makes skin tightening possible without surgery. The procedure uses radiofrequency waves, which penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and tighten the tissue. At the same time, the body is stimulated to produce new collagen. You’ll see an initial effect right after the session, while the formation of new collagen fibers takes between three to six months.

This skin tightening doesn’t result from a superficial smoothing but rather from rebuilding the deeper layers of the tissue. In essence, Thermage® provides a “natural anti-aging” effect by promoting new collagen growth.

Good to know: The Thermage® FLX treatment is suitable for all skin types.

Procedure of the Thermage®-Treatment in Munich

A Thermage® treatment takes between 20 and 30 minutes and can be performed on an outpatient basis in our Munich practice. Because the procedure is gentle, no anesthesia is required—you can resume your normal activities immediately afterward.

Radiofrequency waves generate heat. To keep the treatment comfortable, we first apply a cooling gel. The Thermage® device is then gently moved across the skin, heating the deeper layers of tissue. This process tightens existing collagen fibers while stimulating the body to produce new ones in the following weeks. Most patients feel a mild warmth during the procedure.

For long-lasting results, three sessions spaced a few weeks apart are typically recommended. The outcome can last up to three years and can generally be repeated without any problems.

Thermage® reduces fine lines and wrinkles while improving skin tone and texture. The result is firmer contours and a naturally lifted, rejuvenated appearance. This treatment is not only suitable for the face and eye area but can also be applied to the rest of the body. The following aesthetic concerns can be addressed with the Thermage® procedure:

Loss of contour and volume in the face
Wrinkles and fine lines
Drooping eyelids (hooded lids)
Contour improvement of the neck, chin, and décolleté
Tightening of the abdomen, upper arms, thighs, and buttocks
Treatment of cellulite

Frequently Asked Questions about Thermage®

At what age does a Thermage® treatment make sense?

Skin aging begins as early as around age 25, and in the following years, the first fine lines and wrinkles may appear. In principle, a Thermage® treatment is suitable for any age, but it does have its limitations. In cases of severe skin laxity, radiofrequency therapy may be used alongside more invasive treatments. However, those who start combating the signs of aging early can often avoid more extensive procedures later on.

We generally recommend beginning Thermage® treatments from the age of 30.

How long does Thermage® skin tightening take?

The treatment itself takes about 30 minutes. We generally recommend three sessions to achieve the desired results.

When can I expect to see visible results?

Initial skin-tightening results are visible immediately after the first treatment. The long-term effects—smoother, firmer skin—due to stimulated collagen production become clearly noticeable after three to six months. The rejuvenating effect can last for up to three years.

Does Thermage® help with cellulite as well?

By improving the skin’s overall structure, Thermage® often helps reduce the appearance of cellulite. The deep tissue tightening brought about by the heat can make the underlying fat tissue less visible on the surface in many cases.

What is the difference between laser and radiofrequency skin tightening?

NAL devices (non-ablative laser) utilize different wavelengths of light to specifically target certain tissue chromophores and renew the upper layer of the skin.
