What Is Thermage FLX?

Thermage FLX is a non-surgical, non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses monopolar radiofrequency (RF) energy to warm and regenerate collagen beneath the skin — no needles, no surgery, no downtime.The heat re-tightens and re-aligns collagen from within.Like steaming a stretched-out knit so the loops draw back into a firmer weave, the heat re-tightens and re-aligns collagen from within.

Who Is Thermage FLX For?

Thermage FLX may be considered in the following situations.

  • Loss of skin firmness, fine lines, or early to moderate sagging is a concern
  • The goal is to manage skin firmness before sagging becomes pronounced
  • A non-invasive tightening treatment without surgery or injections is preferred
  • A treatment with relatively little recovery burden is preferred
  • Loss of firmness across several areas such as the eye area, cheeks, and jawline is a concern

Treatment is not possible, or requires individual assessment by the medical team, in the following situations.

  • An implanted electronic device such as a pacemaker or defibrillator (excluded from treatment)
  • Metal implants in the treatment area (excluded from treatment)
  • Pregnancy (excluded from treatment)
  • Active autoimmune disease (eligibility judged through individual consultation with the medical team)

Suitability is determined through consultation with the medical team before treatment.

What to Expect: The Thermage FLX Treatment Process

1.Consultation: Skin laxity is assessed and contraindications — including metal implants or implanted electronic devices — are screened.Suitability for Thermage FLX is confirmed.

2.Preparation: Metal accessories are removed and a return pad (which completes the RF circuit) is placed on the body.Rather than applying one fixed guide treatment grid to everyone, REPIC Clinic takes a personalized approach — shots are distributed differently for each patient according to face shape and skin laxity (a treatment grid can be drawn on request).No anaesthesia or numbing cream is required.Real-time patient feedback during the session allows energy levels to be adjusted safely.

3.Treatment: The Thermage FLX Tip is pressed firmly against the skin one zone at a time.Each shot rapidly cycles through surface cooling, deep RF heating, and surface cooling again, protecting the skin surface while delivering controlled energy to the deep dermis.

4.Finish: Soothing post-treatment care is applied.Normal daily activities can be resumed immediately — no dressing, no downtime, no restrictions.

Thermage FLX Safety Information & Aftercare

A prickling or warm sensation and flushing can occur during and immediately after the session.Temporary redness or swelling typically settles within a day, though this varies by individual.If symptoms persist or worsen, a follow-up visit is recommended.

For the first few days after treatment:

  • Avoid saunas, hot baths, excessive sun exposure, and strenuous exercise
  • Keep skin well moisturized and protected with SPF
  • Light makeup is generally fine the same day

Who cannot receive Thermage FLX: Thermage FLX is not suitable for those with a pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or other implanted electronic device, metal implants in the treatment area, or pregnancy.Those with an active autoimmune condition require individual assessment.Metal accessories should be removed prior to treatment, and any dental prosthetics should be disclosed at consultation.

This information is for general guidance only.Effects and safety vary by individual, and a medical consultation is required before treatment.

Frequently asked questions

What are Thermage FLX shots?

Shots refer to the number of RF energy pulses delivered — the coverage and density of treatment.Each shot is a single, non-invasive energy pulse applied by pressing the tip firmly against the skin.A session of 600 or 900 shots indicates how many pulses are delivered across the treatment area, ensuring consistent and thorough coverage.

How many Thermage FLX shots are needed?

Because each shot treats approximately 4.0 cm², 600 shots serves as a reference dose for covering the full face.Rather than applying one fixed grid to everyone, REPIC Clinic takes a personalized approach — the appropriate count and how shots are distributed are tailored to each patient's face shape, degree of laxity, and treatment area, and confirmed with you before the session begins.If a wider range or denser coverage is needed, 900 shots may be selected.

What is the difference between the Thermage FLX Eye Tip and Face Tip?

The Face Tip covers a larger surface area per shot (approximately 4.0 cm²), suited for broader areas such as the forehead, cheeks, and jawline.The Eye Tip is smaller and calibrated for the delicate skin around the eyes, delivering lower energy to safely treat fine lines, hooding, and laxity.

Is Thermage FLX painful? Is anaesthesia needed?

Thermage FLX is generally performed without anaesthesia.Because each shot is designed to alternate cooling and heating, a prickling, warm sensation is felt.Energy is adjusted in real time to a level the patient can tolerate, and pain sensitivity varies by individual — letting the team know how it feels during the session allows the intensity to be adjusted.

Can I return to normal activities right after Thermage FLX?

Yes.Because it is non-invasive with no incision or needles, no dressing or recovery period is required and normal daily activities can be resumed immediately.Temporary redness or warmth typically settles within about a day.
