Thermage FLX is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to gently heat the deep layers of the skin. This process stimulates collagen regeneration, tightening existing fibers while encouraging new collagen formation. Unlike lasers or microneedling, Thermage FLX works below the skin’s surface—targeting the collagen-rich dermal layer to firm, smooth, and contour from within. Thermage FLX effectively addresses:
Because it works deep in the skin without surface damage, Thermage FLX requires no anesthesia, injections, or downtime—making it one of the most convenient and effective tightening options available today.
Your treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation with one of StudioMD’s trained providers. We’ll evaluate your skin tone, elasticity, and treatment goals, then design a personalized plan that targets your key areas of concern.
After applying a cooling gel to protect your skin, your provider uses the Thermage FLX handpiece to deliver RF energy in precise pulses. Each pulse includes cooling and vibration to maximize comfort while ensuring even heating throughout the treatment area. The procedure typically lasts 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the size of the treated region. Most patients describe the sensation as a brief warmth or tingling—easily tolerated without anesthesia.
Following your session, you can return to normal activities immediately. There’s no downtime, and makeup can be applied the same day. Some patients experience mild redness or swelling, which usually resolves within hours.
