What Is Thermage FLX (5th Generation)?
Thermage is a radiofrequency (RF) device that delivers controlled heat energy deep into the skin, targeting the dermis and SMAS layer to stimulate natural collagen regeneration. The result is firmer, tighter, and more lifted skin. The FLX is the latest 5th-generation system, featuring significant upgrades in comfort and treatment efficiency.
Rappoel Dermatology Clinic uses the genuine Solta Medical Thermage FLX system. Every treatment tip is scanned and verified through the manufacturer’s authentication system before use.
4 Key Upgrades of the FLX (5th Gen)
The new 4.0cm² tip covers more skin per pulse, meaning fewer total pulses needed and faster treatment times.
Improved cooling spray and vibration mechanism significantly reduce heat sensation and discomfort during treatment.
An updated algorithm ensures consistent energy distribution, preventing hot spots or under-treated areas.
Full-face treatment is reduced from 60–90 minutes to approximately 40–60 minutes.
Which Areas Can Thermage FLX Treat?
- Full face:Overall skin laxity, jawline definition, double chin reduction
- Eyes:Periorbital lines, upper eyelid sagging, crow’s feet (using the dedicated eye tip)
- Neck:Neck lines and sagging skin
- Body:Abdomen, arms, thighs, and other areas with loose skin
The Rappoel Thermage FLX Experience

2. Preparation: Skin is cleansed and grid stickers are applied to mark the treatment area.
3. Tip Verification: The new treatment tip’s verification code is scanned and authenticated through the official system.

When Do Results Appear and How Long Do They Last?

- 2–6 months:Continued collagen production, results peak at approximately 40–60% improvement
- Duration:Results typically last 1–2 years depending on individual factors
