No matter how well a person takes care of his or her skin throughout a lifetime, the effects of aging will eventually show. Even if a person puts on sunscreen every single day, drinks plenty of water and exercises regularly throughout a lifetime, eventually a point will be reached where the body cannot replace the collagen in the skin fast enough to prevent the signs of aging from showing.

Slide 3: 

Not only age, but sun exposure and other lifestyle choices can expedite the breakdown of collagen, which may result in saggy skin around the face and neck, wrinkles on the face (especially around the eyes, forehead and mouth), and similar problems with sagging or wrinkling around other areas of the body.

Slide 4: 

The key to reducing the appearance of such signs of aging is to encourage the production of more collagen in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue, or in other words, the layers of skin that don't show.

Slide 5: 

One way to accomplish this reversal in the aging process, to encourage more collage to develop, is by stimulating the under layers of skin with techniques like Thermage.

Slide 6: 

This skin therapy uses radio frequency technology, and heats the layers of deep skin tissue. In the past, such procedures might have burned the epidermis or the outer layer of skin, but thanks to new cooling technology developed with Thermage, San Diego medical professionals have discovered how to prevent this problem.

Slide 7: 

As the deep layers of skin are stimulated by the heat, the saggy or wrinkly skin is actually replaced leaving the person with tighter, smoother skin. The overall effect is younger looking skin.

Slide 8: 

This treatment is different than laser treatments in that it does not heat the outermost layer of skin. This outermost layer is frequently replaced by the body meaning that using radio frequency technology instead will go straight to the underlying source of the problem for more immediate, and permanent, results.

Slide 9: 

Additionally many people have found this form of treatment beneficial in that absolutely no recovery time is needed. With some procedures the patient may be out of work and unable to complete daily activities for days.

Slide 10: 

With the required multiple treatments for many laser procedures there is a definite drawback to taking so much time to recover.

Slide 11: 

With a procedure like Thermage the patient can be back in action and looking better than ever straight away, after just one treatment. Such advanced technology might not be available just anywhere, so be sure to look for the best providers using the most advanced technology before committing to a procedure.
