Summary

  • A lot of people who visit board certified Dr. Ronald Shelton’s practice in New York are looking for ways to get rid of the wrinkles on their face and have skin that is smoother and tighter. Dr. Shelton offers his patients the option of Thermage to get rid of wrinkles. For people who dislike procedures that are invasive, Thermage will be blessing. Patients need not worry about the incision scars or other issues associated with invasive procedures when it comes to Thermage.

    The way in which Thermage gets rid of wrinkles is by applying radiofrequency to the skin of the patient. This radiofrequency will go through the patient’s skin and deep into the underlying tissue while causing no harm to the surface skin. The collagen that is already found in your skin is stimulated by the heat of the radiofrequency, resulting in a simply stunning outcome. Furthermore, since this treatment is completed in a short period of time, patients do not have to disturb their daily schedule to undergo it. By undergoing this treatment, patients can be given a younger look and be more confident when in public or at work.
