Treatment Overview
Neck Rejuvenation with Thermage FLX is a non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) procedure performed in Korea to tighten and lift sagging skin on the neck. Thermage FLX delivers controlled monopolar RF energy deep into the dermis and superficial fascia, stimulating collagen production and remodeling for a smoother, firmer, and more youthful neck contour.
Unlike surgical neck lifts, this treatment improves skin elasticity, reduces horizontal neck lines, and tightens jowls and submental areas without incisions or downtime. When combined with Juvelook skin boosters, the therapy enhances hydration, elasticity, and long-term collagen support.
Purpose & Benefits
- Neck Tightening: Firms loose, sagging skin for a defined neck contour.
- Wrinkle Reduction: Softens horizontal neck lines and early platysmal bands.
- Skin Firming: Stimulates collagen to improve texture and elasticity.
- Submental & Jawline Support: Helps reduce sagging under the chin and along the jawline.
- Non-Invasive: Safe, painless, and minimal downtime.
- Synergy-Ready: Can be combined with Juvelook, threads, or other RF treatments for enhanced rejuvenation.

- Men and women in their 30s–60s with mild to moderate neck laxity or sagging.

Possible Risks & Complications
