A Thermage® or XTherma session typically lasts between 45 and 90 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. Your appointment begins with skin preparation and the application of a temporary treatment grid to ensure precise coverage. Once the procedure starts, your clinician delivers a series of short radiofrequency pulses across the treatment area, with each pulse lasting only a few seconds. Because Thermage® and XTherma are single-session treatments, everything is completed in one visit. After your appointment, you can return to your normal routine right away, with no extended downtime needed.

Does the length of treatment vary by area?

Yes, smaller areas like the eyes may take less time, while larger areas of the body may take longer.

How much time should I plan for my appointment?

Most patients are in and out of the clinic in under two hours.

Will I need multiple sessions?

No, Thermage® and XTherma are designed as a one-time treatment, though results may be maintained with future sessions.

Is there recovery time after the appointment?

There's little to no downtime, so you can get back to your day right after treatment.
