When you consult with your provider, you’ll discuss your treatment plan, including the areas you want to treat and the number of sessions you’re likely to need.
Each session lasts 30–45 minutes, and your provider will tailor it to your treatment goals, focusing on the areas of your face where you want to address laxity and lines.
After applying a gel that helps conduct heat safely, your provider touches the handheld ThermiSmooth Face device to the surface of your skin and sweeps it across the treatment area in a circular motion. Each area will be targeted for 12–15 minutes.
Radiofrequency energy is transmitted through the skin without breaking the surface. The device adjusts its temperature in response to your skin heating, maintaining a comfortable level of heat the whole time.
No anesthetic is needed. You can expect your treatment to feel like a warm massage, though you should let your provider know if it feels too hot so they can adjust the temperature to keep you comfortable.
Side effects include minor redness and swelling, but you should be able to continue with your day post-treatment, with no recovery required.
