ThermiTight RF at Charlotte Skin & Laser
Tighten Skin, Skip Surgery
ThermiTight RF is the first aesthetic procedure that delivers controlled thermal energy under the skin to stimulate collagen, providing a tightening effect for loose or sagging skin. ThermiTight RF uses temperature-regulated radiofrequency (RF) energy delivered through a tiny probe to gently heat specific tissues to a predetermined therapeutic temperature. Areas that can be treated are the face, neck, abdomen, arms, etc. This procedure is ideal for patients who want more results than non-invasive procedures but still wish to avoid surgery.
How Does ThermiTight RF work?
ThermiTight RF is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local anesthesia. A tiny probe is inserted under the skin, and radiofrequency energy is delivered to the target tissues, stimulating collagen tightening. The tip of the probe constantly provides feedback on the skin temperature during the procedure. An infrared camera is also used to monitor the external skin temperature, ensuring a safe and effective treatment.
What Can I Expect During My ThermiTight RF Treatment?
Local anesthetic is used to numb the treated area, which can cause minimal discomfort during the injection of the numbing agent. After the area is numb, there is little to no discomfort. The most common sensations during the procedure are pressure and warmth. The procedure can also be done with or without medications to help with anxiety or pain.
The procedure itself can take about 1 to 2 hours. Depending on the area treated, the duration may be shorter or longer.
