What is Thermage FLX?
A 4th-generation monopolar radiofrequency (RF) platform operating at 6.78 MHz that
delivers energy from the dermis through the dermal–fat interface to drive collagen
contraction, renewal and lifting. The new AccuREP™ algorithm calculates tissue impedance
on every pulse and adjusts output automatically for consistent heat points, while an
integrated vibration & cooling system minimizes discomfort during treatment. (Thermage, Susanne Ilmd)





Each area's thickness, elasticity and fat layer
is assessed in advance with ultrasound and palpation,
so shot spacing and energy can be set to fit.
Topical numbing plus vibration and cooling,
with optional oral analgesic if needed.
PRX-T33, PDRN skin boosters and others
can be added every 2–4 weeks to
amplify collagen remodeling.
Shot maps, energy levels and temperature logs are
saved so re-treatments can automatically
recommend each patient's optimal settings.
| Category | Thermage FLX Improvements | Clinical Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | Total Tip 4.0 cm² (vs. previous 3.0 cm²) → up to 25% shorter treatments |
Average full-face treatment time drops from 35 → 26 minutes, reducing fatigue and discomfort (Thermage, Susanne Ilmd) |
| Energy Precision | AccuREP™ auto-calibrates output and impedance pulse by pulse | Heat-point depth and temperature stay uniform across areas, improving lifting reproducibility while lowering overheat risk (Thermage) |
| Tip Design | Ergonomic handpiece + 4.0 Tip with optimized heat distribution | Greater heat volume per shot at the same shot count means more collagen stimulation → potentially longer-lasting results (Skinlab — Injectable & Laser Clinic) |
| Patient Comfort | Built-in vibration module + continuous cooling, reduced noise | Most patients can undergo treatment with topical numbing alone, with less post-treatment redness and swelling (Thermage, echelon.com.hk) |
| Shot Efficiency | CPT 900 shots ≈ FLX 600 shots (equivalent energy) | Lower consumable cost and shorter treatment time, better economics (Skinlab — Injectable & Laser Clinic) |
※ Individual results and longevity may vary based on skin condition and lifestyle.
Is it very painful?
Blood draw is similar to standard donation; during the injection, topical numbing keeps it tolerable for most patients.What's the downtime?
Mild flushing and slight swelling typically resolve within 1–3 days; washing and makeup are fine right away.How many sessions are needed?
After one session, we observe progress for 1–3 months before deciding on additional treatments.Any side effects?
Bruising at the injection site and brief warmth have been reported rarely;
One session,
a firmer face line and smoother skin texture
