Thermage® Thermacool-TC™
Tighten Your Skin Without Invasive Surgery
Dr. McCune was one of the first to offer Thermage® treatments to the Kansas City area. He was been selected by the Thermage® company to train other physicians in the procedure.
Thermage® is a FDA approved device that tightens and tones the skin without invasive surgery. It utilizes a high energy radiofrequency generator to create heat in the superficial and deep collagen layers of the skin and underlying fat. This allows the skin to tighten and recontour across treated sites in a three-dimensional fashion. The skin surface is usually not affected producing a no or minimal downtime procedure. The incidence of side effects is rare (less than 4 out of 10,000 procedures), and the safety is high.
Although not as aggressive as invasive lifting procedures, over 90% of patients achieve a positive result after a single Thermage® treatment. The degree of improvement may vary widely and is very unpredictable. Some patients have great results while others experience little or no improvement. Improvement is gradual over 4-6 months. Additional treatments can additively enhance results.
The newest innovation in radiofrequency non-invasive tissue tightening is now available at Kansas City Laser and Dermasurgery Center, P.A. – The Thermage® CPT device. This remarkable advancement in Thermage® technology allows deeper tissue heating with no to mild discomfort. Thermage is FDA approved for treatments of the face, eyelids, and non-facial sites (neck, arms, waist, abdomen, flanks, buttocks, thighs) for non-invasive tissue tightening.
