Edmonton, AB -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/17/2014 -- Thermage is a device that uses radio frequency energy to produce heat which in turn stimulates the production of collagen, and it also tightens the skin. It is the subject of this week’s short video review from Edmonton cosmetic dermatologist, Dr Barry Lycka.

In his latest video, Dr Lycka highlights the Thermage device and skin tightening procedure. He explains that although it has been available for several years, there are new uses for it, with new ‘tips’ to enable its use around the eye area for example. Dr Lycka continues his video with a reference to Thermage versus Ulthera, a different device which uses ultrasound technology, and which also lifts and tightens the skin.

This video is part of a new mini-series of videos about the latest facial rejuvenation, skin and body treatments available, particularly those which are non-invasive or non-surgical but which still deliver great results for patients.
