Tighten the skin by using a device called Thermage, which uses radio waves.
Marianne Northington, assistant professor and beauty expert in dermatology at Marian, said: "Thermage emits radio waves that go deep into the skin and subcutaneous tissue, promoting collagen remodeling and helping to tighten the skin.
"Thermage works well in patients who don't rely on surgery, injections or chemical applications to expect younger appearance and better skin tone.
"It is safe for all skin types, light skin and dark skin and works well for all body parts," Northington added . ".
"You tighten your skin immediately after treatment, and then over time the skin will improve over time for 4 to 6 months.
"Heat therapy is performed without anesthesia and can be done once or twice in 20 minutes to more than an hour.
Thermage treatment heats the skin and the skin absorbs RF energy to tighten collagen.
