Patient Information
The Thermage NXT procedure is the only non-invasive treatment that delivers tighter skin, renewed facial contours and healthier collagen in a single treatment session. (Collagen is the building block that provides structure to your skin.)
The Doctors and Nurses at MD Cosmedical Solutions are your best information resource for determining how this treatment will most benefit you. The more commonly asked questions about this popular procedure are listed below.
What is the Thermage NXT procedure?
The Thermage NXT procedure employs a patented radiofrequency (RF) technology called ThermaCool™. It has been clinically proven to tighten and gently lift skin to smooth out wrinkles and renew facial and body contours. The incision-free procedure is fast and easy, and requires no downtime from normal activities. Unlike lasers, the procedure can be performed on patients of all skin types and skin colours. The ThermaCool device has been cleared by the FDA for the non-invasive treatment of facial wrinkles and rhytids. The ThermaCool device is registered in Australia with the TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration).
How does it work?
The ThermaCool system uses a sophisticated treatment tip called ThermaTip™, which delivers a controlled amount of RF energy. With each touch to the skin, the ThermaTip device uniformly heats a large and controlled volume of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin and its underlying tissue while simultaneously protecting the outer layer of the skin with cooling. This deep uniform heating action causes deep structures in your skin to immediately tighten. Over time, new and remodelled collagen is produced to further tighten skin, resulting in healthier, smoother skin and a more youthful appearance.
What does the Thermage NXT procedure feel like?
With each touch of the ThermaTip device, you will experience a brief, deep heating sensation as the RF energy is delivered to your skin and deep underlying tissue. This deep heating sensation is your indication that your collagen is reaching effective temperatures for tightening. The doctor or nurse controls the amount of energy delivered to balance procedural comfort with maximum results. The ThermaTip device is cooled before, during, and after heating to fully protect your skin and make the treatment more comfortable. Prior to treatment, your doctor may administer oral analgesia (ie. Nurofen or Panadiene) to enhance your comfort. The need for further pain management is extremely rare.
How long does it take?
The Thermage NXT procedure can take anywhere from a few minutes to over an hour, depending on the size of the treatment area. Additional time may be required for skin preparation prior to the procedure.
What will my skin feel like after the procedure?
Immediately following a Thermage NXT procedure, your skin should feel tighter, smoother and more youthful. Overtime, you will notice additional tightening.
How many treatments will I need?
Unlike many laser procedures requiring four or more sessions, a single Thermage NXT treatment has produced results in the majority of patients. Your doctor will determine the course of treatment that is right for you.
When will I see results?
Recently published studies conducted by Thermage NXT show that measurable tightening improvements appear gradually over 2 to 6 months after a single treatment session. However, many patients have reported seeing an earlier response.
How long will the effects of the Thermage NXT procedure last?
The Thermage NXT procedure causes immediate tightening of the collagen structure, with additional tightening over time. Unpublished reports by experienced cosmetic doctors indicate that results may last 36 months or longer based on the patient's natural aging process.
Is the Thermage NXT procedure safe?
The Thermage NXT procedure has an excellent safety record. With over 500,000 estimated worldwide patient treatments to date the reported incidence of side effects is less than 0.2%. The most frequently reported incidents are classified as swelling, redness, bumps and blisters on or around the treated area. These side effects have usually disappeared in a few days or weeks. A rare (<0.2%) but longer lasting side effect described as a skin depression has also been reported. Consult with your doctor regarding this and any other questions you may have on the safety record of the Thermage NXT procedure.
How long before I can return to my normal activities?
Most people return to their regular activities immediately following the Thermage NXT procedure. Some people experience mild redness (like a mild sunburn), but it usually disappears quickly. No special care is needed after treatment unless otherwise instructed by your doctor.
What are the benefits of Thermage NXT compared to cosmetic surgery procedures?
q There is no need for any cutting or other invasive procedure
q No need for anaesthetic – cost saving and far greater safety
q Normally no “down time” or recovery period
q Very little discomfort
q Substantial saving compared with a hospital based procedure
q Time saving compared to other multiple treatment optionsSingle treatment compared with multiple laser or other light based treatments
