What Is Thermage FLX?
Thermage FLX is a device designed to support skin-firmness care by delivering radiofrequency (RF) energy to the skin. The treatment approach is determined after consultation based on the area and the individual’s skin condition. Cooling and vibration functions are used together, while the tip type and treatment range are planned by the medical team according to areas such as the face, eye area, and neck. After assessing skin condition, radiofrequency energy is delivered with surface cooling. The detailed plan and response can vary by individual condition.

Whether sedation is appropriate is determined based on individual condition and medical judgment. Sufficient consultation and guidance are required before treatment. STAR Dermatology reviews individual skin type, facial shape, areas of concern, and care goals to thoughtfully plan the treatment area and range.
