Introducing Thermage FLX & FLX Intense at Contoura Medical — the gold-standard in non-surgical skin and body tightening.
Book Your Personal ConsultationWhat Are Thermage FLX & FLX Intense?
Thermage FLX is the latest generation of Thermage radio-frequency (RF) skin tightening technology, delivering controlled deep-tissue heating to remodel collagen and firm skin for face, neck, eyes and body. It’s more comfortable than previous generations and offers effective skin tightening without pin marks like Morpheus8. It is a walkin, get done and walk out and go for lunch an hour later treatment.
Thermage FLX Intense builds on this with higher energy settings, intended for patients who require stronger contraction or more challenging body zones due to more advanced laxity. Both treatments are non-surgical, feature minimal downtime. The intense version is doctor-led at Contoura Medical for optimal safety and results.

The Science Behind Thermage:
Thermage FLX utilises unipolar radiofrequency energy to safely heat the deep, collagen-rich layers of your skin. This controlled heating causes existing collagen to contract, leading to immediate tightening. More importantly, it stimulates your body’s natural collagen production, resulting in progressive tightening and contouring over several months.
The AccuREP™ technology ensures optimised energy delivery for consistent, effective results and enhanced patient comfort. Thermage FLX Intense leverages higher energy settings to target more significant laxity, offering a powerful non-surgical solution for comprehensive skin remodeling.
Unique Advantages of Thermage FLX:
- Gold-Standard Technology: A trusted and clinically proven RF platform for skin tightening.
- Comfort with AccuREP™: Integrated cooling and vibration technology for a more pleasant experience.
- Single-Session Potential: Often only one treatment is needed for significant results.
- Progressive Improvement: Results continue to enhance for months post-treatment.

Common Treatment Areas
Your Thermage FLX Procedure: What to Expect
We guide you through every stage of your Thermage FLX treatment with utmost comfort and clarity, ensuring a premium experience.
Comprehensive Consultation
Your journey begins with an in-depth assessment by Dr. Anthony, where we perform a detailed skin and tissue analysis. We discuss your aesthetic goals to create a customized treatment plan tailored specifically for you.
The Treatment Day
Depending on the area size, your session will last approximately 45-90 minutes (e.g., 45-60 mins for face/neck). Thermage FLX uses proprietary AccuREP™ tip technology with integrated vibration and cooling for maximum patient comfort. You will feel a warm, deep-tissue heating sensation. For FLX Intense, stronger comfort protocols or mild sedation may be used.
Post-Treatment & Results Timeline
Mild redness or swelling is possible, but most patients return to normal activities immediately. You'll notice some immediate tightening, with full effects developing gradually over 2-6 months as new collagen forms. Final results are often seen by 6-12 months and can last 1-2 years or more with proper maintenance.
Safety & Aftercare with Thermage FLX
Thermage FLX is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment. Its advanced design prioritizes your safety and comfort, ensuring effective results with manageable recovery.
Minimal Invasion, Proven Safety
Thermage FLX is FDA-cleared for the face, body, and multiple skin types. Being non-surgical, it carries significantly fewer risks compared to full surgical procedures, making it a safer alternative for skin tightening.
Manageable Side Effects
Temporary side effects such as mild redness or swelling are common but typically short-lived. Burns or blistering are extremely rare when performed by an experienced doctor like Dr. Anthony.
Comprehensive Aftercare
We recommend gentle skincare and broad-spectrum SPF post-treatment, avoiding intense sun/heat for a few days.
