Thighs and Knee Skin Tightening
Excess
fat deposits are one of the most common causes of skin distortion in the knees
and thighs. Flabbiness, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity are usually the result
of poor circulation to the skin, and this is in turn caused by unwanted fat
buildup underneath the dermal layers.
ThermiRF
heat treatment is a new, virtually non-invasive method for removal of excess
fat underneath the skin. It is being hailed as the next generation skin
tightening procedure, and it is rapidly becoming the preferred means of
eliminating skin folds and wrinkles.
Unlike
potentially dangerous chemical procedures such as Botox, ThermiRF treatment
involves the use of a specialized heat probe in combination with an infrared
monitor. This is good news for anyone looking to get rid of those ugly thigh or
knee wrinkles.
Reducing Fat Deposits and Increasing Skin
Elasticity
The
Thermi heat treatment system uses a small probe that is inserted underneath the
skin. Depending on the type of treatment and the thickness of the skin itself,
the probe may be positioned directly below the epidermis, in the fat buildup
layer, or in the uppermost neural layer.
This
gentle application of heat will actually melt away a portion of the fat
deposits. The result is a more supple skin surface, a decrease in the size and
number of wrinkles, and an almost immediate increase in skin elasticity.
The
procedure is monitored with an infrared display that allows the cosmetic surgeon
to accurately pinpoint the areas in need of heat treatment. Generally, these
procedures are completed in less than one hour.
Is This Type Of Heat Treatment Painful?
The probe
is very small, and the procedure is practically non-invasive. A series of anesthetic
injections are given just prior to inserting the probe. The patient feels no
pain or extreme heat during the procedure. The probe is inserted just through
the epidermis on the knee or thigh area being treated. The equipment has a
simple temperature monitor that allows for the exact application of heat for
the proper duration.
After the
procedure is complete, a heat pad wrap is applied to the knee or thigh. This
helps to eliminate any pain as the anesthetic wears off. Patients are back to
their normal routine in less than 24 hours.
An Alternative to Chemical Injections
Some
people are wary of chemical treatments or liposuction procedures. There is good
reason to be concerned. These fat-reducing procedures and skin-tightening
measures often have dangerous side effects. However, the ThermiRF treatment
involves only the application of targeted heat via a small probe, and the
patient endures no lasting effects from the probe’s heat. There is absolutely
no danger of tissue degradation when this method is employed.
Growing
rapidly in popularity, this new type of cosmetic procedure is affordable and
safe, and it promises superior results without the need for specialized plastic
surgery or chemical treatments.
