If you are searching for the best wrinkle treatment for your skin, you have a lot of options. You have probably already heard of Botox cosmetics, collagen injections, and creams that are supposed to remove fine lines.
But you may not have heard of laser treatments that could possibly be even more effective, one of them being thermage.
Thermage laser treatments are administered using a device that sends out radiofrequency into areas of sagging or wrinkled skin. During the procedure, a patient’s skin is marked with grid lines as a guide for the physician to use. The energy that is transmitted through the device heats up the collagen in the lower layers of your skin, helping to contract the collagen fibers. As this happens, the skin tightens, giving it a smoother appearance.
“Visible results are immediate with Thermage. One great aspect of treatment is that results typically continue to improve for 4 to 6 months following initial treatment and can last for years,” says Dr. Tom Y. Woo, Dermatologist at Laser Rejuvenation Clinic and Spa.
Because thermage results can last for a long period of time, patients don’t have to spend inordinate amounts of money on keeping their skin looking younger and fresher.
Another common treatment for aging skin is fraxel. This is also a laser treatment, but it send tiny laser beams deep into the skin that eliminate old, dead skin. This stimulates the collagen production in your dermis, which will add more volume to your skin. This procedure is fairly popular as well, and after about three to five treatments, you will see a major difference.
You could try both and see if you like thermage results or fraxel better. Either way, you will be able to ward off wrinkles and fine lines.
