Thermage® Skin Tightening in NYC
Combat laxity, wrinkles, and loss of definition with Thermage® at Park Ave. Derm in New York City. This FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten and contour treated areas, including the face, neck, eyelids, abdomen, thighs, and arms, all with minimal downtime
What Is Thermage?
Thermage is a clinically proven RF treatment designed to firm and lift sagging tissue by stimulating collagen remodeling deep within the dermis. It delivers controlled heat to the treatment area while protecting the surface with cooling technology. This allows for noticeable tightening and smoothing of fine lines and wrinkles without injections or surgery.
Benefits of Thermage at Park Ave. Derm
Thermage® is revered for its ability to deliver noticeable skin tightening without the need for invasive procedures. Key benefits include:

- Enhances jawline and facial contours

- Firms arms, abdomen, and thighs
- Non-surgical with little to no downtime
- Stimulates long-term collagen renewal
How Thermage Works
Thermage uses monopolar radiofrequency energy to uniformly heat collagen-rich layers beneath the skin. This process contracts existing collagen and stimulates new collagen growth. Over the weeks following treatment, skin becomes firmer and more lifted as collagen is rebuilt. A single session can deliver visible improvements in texture and tone.
Popular treatment areas include:
- Face (cheeks, jawline, nasolabial folds)
- Eyes (eyelids, brow area)
- Neck and decolletage
- Abdomen
- Upper arms
- Thighs and knees
Who Is a Good Candidate for Thermage?
Thermage is appropriate for those experiencing mild to moderate signs of laxity or collagen loss. Good candidates typically have:
- Noticeable wrinkles or fine lines
- Loss of firmness in treated areas
- Mild jowling or hooded eyelids
- Clinical evidence of cosmetic concerns
A consultation with one of our dermatologists can determine if Thermage aligns with your rejuvenation goals.
What to Expect During an NYC Thermage Treatment
Thermage is an in-office procedure that typically takes between 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the treatment area. After cleansing the area, a temporary treatment grid is applied to guide the RF delivery. The handheld device then delivers controlled pulses of RF energy, accompanied by cooling sensations to protect the skin.
Most patients describe the treatment as comfortable, with intermittent heat and vibration. There is no need for anesthesia or numbing.
Recovery After Thermage
You may return to regular activities immediately following your appointment. Minor redness or swelling may occur and generally resolves within 24 hours. Since the procedure is non-invasive, there are no incisions, stitches, or significant restrictions after treatment.
Thermage Results and Maintenance
Results develop gradually over 2 to 6 months as new collagen is produced. Many patients report a visible lift, smoother texture, and firmer tone in the treated areas. While results vary, the benefits typically last 1 to 2 years, depending on your skincare regimen and sun avoidance techniques.
To maintain optimal outcomes, follow-up treatments may be recommended annually.
