Treatment Overview
Thermage FLX is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the deeper dermal layers. This stimulates collagen contraction and remodeling, while also promoting the production of new collagen and elastin over time.
For loose neck skin, Thermage FLX effectively tightens sagging tissue, smooths horizontal neck lines, and strengthens fragile dermal layers. It is one of the most advanced RF-based tightening treatments available in Korea and is a preferred choice for those seeking long-lasting, natural results without surgery.
Purpose & Benefits
- Neck Tightening: Firms sagging skin and improves contour.
- Collagen Remodeling: Encourages new collagen growth for lasting firmness.
- Wrinkle Reduction: Smooths horizontal lines and creases on the neck.
- Elasticity Improvement: Restores resilience to thinning skin.
- Non-Invasive: No downtime, safe for delicate neck areas.
- Long-Lasting Results: Improvements continue for months post-treatment.
- Synergy: Often combined with Rejuran, Exosomes, or HIFU for layered results.
