Thermage: monopolar radiofrequency

Abstract

Monopolar radiofrequency treatment may be appropriate for patients who desire skin tightening but will not tolerate surgery and/or downtime. Patients generally can expect a 5% to 20% improvement, but results in any particular group are unpredictable. Key to this treatment is providing patients with detailed information to ensure that expectations are realistic.
