Your Best Skin Ever With ThermaLift at New Star Med Spa 

ThermaLift is an FDA-approved face and body treatment that tightens the tissue without surgery. Also known as thermoplastic contouring, this is a non-invasive procedure that requires no or minimal "downtime" required. It's a non-surgical facelift that uses radiofrequency energy to improve the appearance of the skin safely, targeting various areas including crow's feet, jowls, neck, and forehead. ThermaLift is also used for treating acne and acne scarring.

New Star Med Spa provides patients with minimally or non-invasive alternatives to lessen the appearance of wrinkles and tighten loose skin while stimulating natural collagen formation. This is a great solution for lax or sagging skin and soft tissue, excess fat in the face, and pronounced frown lines. You get the rejuvenating results that you want without having to go through the downtimes that surgery requires. Since ThermaLift involves delivering energy underneath the skin, the treatment is essentially painless.

New Star Med Spa's ThermaLift technology uses computer-controlled radio frequency energy, which will tighten your skin without damaging the epidermis and help with collage. Our team will make a thorough assessment of your face during the initial consultation and then we will recommend a procedure that is tailor-made for your needs and desired results.

How ThermaLift Works

ThermaLift uses a radiofrequency tool to stimulate your skin into producing collagen and elastin. The device delivers heat to the cells in the lower layers of your skin (dermis) without harming the epidermis, which is the upper layer. The heat makes your existing collagen contract, which tightens the structure of your skin right away. 

New collagen and elastin will grow over time after the procedure and this will diminish the wrinkles on your face and reverse the signs of aging. This is a non-surgical, pain-free solution to a more radiant, more youthful-looking skin.

Patients can expect natural-looking results that do not look like they have had any "work" done on their face. This is because of the collagen and elastin's effect in increasing the skin's elasticity and diminishing the wrinkles. It treats all five layers of the skin and is effective on all skin tones. Sessions take only 45 to 120 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. ThermaLift has become known as the "the lunchtime facelift" since you can easily return to work or resume your daily routine after your session.

You don't have to worry about downtime after treatment and you can already have great results after just one session. Results last up to a year, so you really get the most out of your investment.

After getting your ThermaLift treatment, expect compliments left and right on how smooth and firm your face is. You can never go wrong with this safe and FDA-approved procedure, especially if it's delivered by a trusted facility such as New Star Med Spa in Frisco TX.

Enhance Your Appearance With the Powers of ThermaLift

  • Boosts elastin and collagen production - collagen is essential to healthy skin and as we lose collagen as we grow older, the skin ends up looking loose and wrinkled. Elastin is another component that maintains the skin’s tautness. ThermaLift stimulates the skin into producing these two.
  • Breaks down older collagen - the treatment breaks down the old collagen in your skin in order for stronger and healthier proteins to grow. Think of it as old and weaker foundation blocks being replaced by new ones. The surge in collagen is essential in fighting the signs of aging.
  • Gives skin a silky sheen - smoother skin has a natural sheen; younger skin is softer and more supple. Cell turnover, which is essential for better skin, slows down as we age. ThermaLift encourages faster cell turnover, removing the dead ones and pushing the healthier versions to give your skin that healthy, satin-like sheen.
  • Versatile treatment - ThermaLift is commonly used in making lines and wrinkles disappear, but it is also effective in tightening loose or sagging skin around the eyes, in the forehead, and along the jawline. Jawlines are important in making the face look younger, as jowls can make one look so much older than they really are.
  • Very natural results - gone are the days that people shy away from facial treatments for fear of showing that they have had "work done." Treatments such as ThermaLift give awesome results but do this in a more subtle way, as compared to those who have undergone plastic surgery.

ThermaLift VS Ultherapy: Know the Difference

ThermaLift and Ultherapy have a lot of things in common - both of them are non-invasive treatments that use heat to stimulate collagen production. Both promise to tighten the skin and improve its overall texture.

ThermaLift uses radiofrequency waves technology in targeting the collagen in your skin, stimulating new growth in order to achieve the desired effects. The treatment reaches all layers of the skin, which makes it effective for different body areas. ThermaLift can be used not just in the face, but also in the hands, neck, and other parts of the body that need tightening.

On the other hand, Ultherapy uses ultrasound to treat common signs of aging, such as wrinkles and sagging in the face, brow, neck, and chest. In the process, Ultherapy treats three different layers - skin, muscle, and wrinkles on the surface level. When it comes to discomfort, you may experience a bit when you get ThermaLift, although it's barely noticeable thanks to the cooling of the skin at the start of the treatment.

Which Is Better for You?

ThermaLift is best for skin tightening and treating fine lines and also immensely effective for lifting the skin, especially saggy necks and jowls. The best treatment for you will still depend on the advice of your doctor and they will take all factors into consideration. A lot of them actually recommend combining both in order to get the best results.

Good Candidates for ThermaLift

Those who want a safe and practically pain-free alternative to plastic surgery will benefit from getting ThermaLift. Middle-aged patients will reap great results for sagging necks, brow, eyelids, jowls, and cheeks. ThermaLift is also recommended for those who have had a facelift before and now want something non-invasive for maintenance. Of course, those who couldn't get surgery for any reason can count ThermaLift as one of their better options.

The usual candidates for ThermaLift treatment are men and women between 30 to 65 years old who are burdened with the early signs of aging such as sagging and facial laxity. These can make a person look tired and worn-out, which leads to a more aged appearance.

Realistic expectations are a must when it comes to getting ThermaLift. As effective as it is, ThermaLift is not a substitute for work done by a plastic surgeon. ThermaLift results are not as dramatic or long-lasting, but it's still one of the best solutions for those who refuse to go under the knife. More advanced signs of aging such as deep or heavy lines, folds, and wrinkles, as well as severe facial sagging, may be better dealt with by surgery.

This is why it's important to have a thorough discussion with your doctor to know if ThermaLift is really the better fit for your issues and expectations. Our team here at New Star Med Spa will assess your face or other body parts you wish to improve and advise you on the best treatment plan possible.

Popular Areas For ThermaLift Treatment

  • Eyes - even younger men and women can look haggard because of hooding, fine lines, and furrowed brows. Lack of sleep and genetics are some of the culprits behind these. ThermaLift can erase these obvious signs of aging and transform your upper and lower eyelids for a more rested look.
  • Face - loose jowls and sagging skin can make us look tired and run-down. Fight these markers of age with ThermaLift, as it can smooth lines and wrinkles and remodel collagen for your skin's overall health. What you get is a firmer jawline minus the jowls and tauter cheeks, enhancing your facial features.
  • Body - as our body breaks down with age, these problems start to creep in: sagging skin in the arms and stomach, dimples, and unwanted bulges. Even those who are not obese can have these tell-tale signs of aging. ThermaLift firms up these problem areas and can even improve the appearance of cellulite temporarily.

Generally, patients will see some results immediately after treatment. Full results will gradually unveil up to six months. You will definitely notice the changes in your face, eyelids, and neck. Results can last years, depending on your skin condition and your body's aging process.

Careful Pre-treatment Care

ThermaLift requires very little preparation before the treatment session since it's non-invasive and does not require anesthesia, although you need to do the following:

  • Before your session, let your doctor know if you have piercings, staples, pins, metal implants, or a pacemaker. Most probably, you would be asked to remove those before you get down for the session. As for pacemakers, your doctor will advise you if it's possible to get the treatment even if you are wearing one.
  • Stay hydrated 2-3 days prior to treatment. Drink plenty of water and avoid alcohol and other liquids that can dehydrate you.
  • Shower and cleanse yourself well before your session. Apply rich moisturizer on the area to be treated on the day of your appointment.
  • If you're worried about possible discomfort, you can take 1 or 2 extra-strength Tylenol or other pain killers an hour before your treatment. Ask your doctor about this just to make sure.
  • Remove contact lenses if you are getting treatment in your eye area.
  • Go make-up-free before you approach the treatment area. If you do prefer to wear make-up on your way to the clinic, arrive 10 minutes earlier so you can cleanse your face before treatment.
  • Skin treated with ThermaLift does not require staying away from the sun completely, but it's better to wear sunscreen before you go outdoors. You can resume your daily activities, even swimming and exercising.

Safe and Flawless Treatment Procedure

After making sure that your skin is totally cleansed using alcohol and free of body accessories, your doctor will take pictures of the area to be treated for an effective before and after comparison. While your skin is still wet, the doctor will apply a temporary, pre-drawn grid on your skin. This grid is specially formulated so it will not interfere with the radiofrequency. A special plastic eye shield is provided if you are getting treated in the eye area.

Your doctor will then do a test pulse to check if you can tolerate the heat level. He will adjust the machine accordingly to the level that you are most comfortable at. Using the grid as a guide, he will distribute the pulses evenly throughout the area.

Every now and then, he will be applying coupling fluid to improve the delivery of the radiofrequency. He will concentrate on the areas that need more attention. As there is no anesthesia involved, your doctor will constantly ask if you are still okay with the heat level. The heat will become more pronounced on the bony areas, but the discomfort should be tolerable.

When your doctor is done with the pulses, the treated area is cleaned and the grid removed using alcohol. A ThermaLift session typically lasts between 45 and 120 minutes, depending on the area for treatment. If you need work on multiple areas, your doctor will spread out these sessions.

Expert After-treatment Care

One of the best things about ThermaLift is that there is no need for downtime. After treatment, you can safely resume your normal activities. You may experience minor cases of swelling, redness, peeling, bumps, and blisters immediately after you have left the clinic - these are perfectly normal and therefore not a cause for alarm. These will go away within 24 hours. You can wear makeup right away and there are no special creams that you need to put on, but it's best to apply sunscreen before you head outdoors.

The full results of your ThermaLift treatment will show after 3-6 months, but you will be able to see visible effects in between. As the treatment works on your skin gradually, you can help the process by using good skincare products, such as sunscreens and topical Vitamin C. You can also take 1000 mg of Vitamin C orally daily for the duration of your treatments.

If you're 30-50 years old, one ThermaLift treatment may be enough. If you're older, the doctor may advise two treatments done six months apart, plus maintenance every year or two.

Our Specialists here at New Star Med Spa can also create a customized skin care program for you to follow after your session. This will help maximize and maintain the benefits of your ThermaLift treatment and get optimal results. You can check with your doctor while you're waiting for the full effect of your treatment to appear.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How Safe is ThermaLift?

The procedure is completely safe as long as it's done by a licensed and experienced practitioner. At New Star Med Spa, standard safety measures are in place during treatment. We make sure that our patient's skin is completely clean to make sure that there will be no interference with the radiofrequency. Our doctors always wear gloves and no part of their skin will touch the patient's during the application of the pulses.

2. Who Must Not Use ThermaLift?

Generally, those who are wearing pacemakers or defibrillators are not allowed to undergo treatment. Same thing with those who have extreme skin redundancy, as well as those who have an autoimmune disease or are on long-term corticosteroids. Unlikely candidates also include severely obese people. Those who have had corneal surgery or Lasik will have to wait for a few months before we give the green light for ThermaLift.

3. When Should I Begin Getting ThermaLift?

There really is no set age for getting ThermaLift since all of us age differently. Factors such as genetics will play a huge role in how we get those wrinkles and sagging skin. Lifestyle is also key - those who smoke, spend lots of time in the sun, and eat poorly will definitely age faster. Signs of aging start to become more noticeable once a person reaches her 30s, so that's a safe starting point. But people in their 40s, 50s, and even 60s can still reap the benefits of ThermaLift.

4. Can I Have ThermaLift if I Already Had a Cosmetic Procedure Done on Me?

Yes, the treatment is safe for patients who have had laser therapy and plastic surgery. Those who have had Botox or fillers (except for the silicone ones) can also undergo treatment. Consult with your doctor if you have had the following.

5. Is There Any Special Preparation or Follow-up Regime?

None. You will get no scar or bruising after ThermaLift treatment, unlike when you undergo plastic surgery. You don't need to stop taking your medications or do fasting before your appointment. Temporary redness may occur, but this goes away within 24 hours. You can have a superficial blister, but that goes away quickly as well. You can return to normal activity after getting the procedure.
