Tampa Thermage
People have been looking for a long time for a facelift where they do not have to go under the knife. They may have found the answer with Tampa Thermage . Some people want facelifts because they do not like the fine lines and wrinkles that form on the face. Fine lines and wrinkles form on the face due to collagen in the face breaking down.
Tampa Thermage re-starts the growth of collegen cells and hopefully gets rid of those fine lines and wrinkles. The Thermage procdure first involves a device called ThermaCool that sprays a liquid on the surface of the skin that tightens and lifts the skin to get rid of the wrinkles. The Tampa Thermage Cool also emits a radio wave that heats the deeper layers of the skin. This combination should make the wrinkles go away.
Dr. Randall Roenigk, a Mayo Clinic, told CCN that currently, it would not replace a facelift. He said, "It would probably used best in people who in their mid-to-late 30s, or 40s and 50s who have a just a little bit of photoaging or wrinkled skin."
Does it cause any pain? A numbing cream cream is used on all the areas that are worked on, but according to Amy Otto, 33, also interviewed by CNN, it does cause some pain. "It's like a burning and pinching sensation," she said. "By the time you think this really hurts, it doesn't hurt anymore." Thermage may not be answer for all people, but it certainly can help some people.
