How ThermiSmooth Works
A small handpiece is moved across the skin in a circular motion, gradually raising the tissue to a target temperature and holding it there. That sustained gentle heat is enough to trigger collagen production without any injury to the skin.
Because the heating is gradual and the temperature is monitored throughout, it can be used safely on delicate areas where a stronger treatment would not be appropriate.
Who ThermiSmooth Is For
ThermiSmooth suits patients who want gradual improvement with no recovery:
- Fine lines and crepiness around the eyes
- Early laxity on the face and neck
- Decolletage texture
- Patients who cannot take any downtime
It is gentler than ThermiTight or Thermage FLX. If your laxity is more advanced, one of those is the better use of your time.
What to Expect
No numbing is needed. Gel is applied and the handpiece is worked over the area for 20 to 30 minutes. Most patients describe it as a warm, comfortable massage.
You can go straight back to your day, makeup included.
Aftercare
Mild warmth and pinkness for a short time afterward, and nothing else. There are no restrictions.
A series of three to six sessions spaced a week or two apart is typical, with results building over the following months as collagen forms.

Can it be used around the eyes?
