What is Thermage FLX?

3D Heating for Total Rejuvenation

Monopolar RF ā€˜bulk heating’ contracts collagen immediately and sparks new collagen over 6+ months—ideal for eyes, face, neck, and body laxity.

Thermage FLX reaches collagen-rich layers up to 4.3mm with calibrated RF energy. You get a single-session tightening plus months of collagen remodeling, without surgery or downtime.

Deep penetration

Targets structural layers (up to 4.3mm with Body Tip) for meaningful tightening.

AccuREPā„¢ precision

Real-time calibration tailors each pulse to your skin’s impedance.

Comfort pulse cooling

Integrated cooling and vibration make FLX markedly more comfortable than prior gens.
