The Harris Clinic is proud to offer the Eyes by Thermage^TM procedure - the latest state-of-the-art technology in skin/body reshaping without expensive and invasive plastic surgery.  Thermage^TM is FDA/Health Canada approved. 

This procedure reduces hooding of the eyelids, improves texture, tone and smoothness of the eye area, and softens fine lines and laugh lines.  Patient's treated in a multi-center study with Eyes by Thermage were satisfied with the procedure overall, experienced minimal discomfort during the procedure, and reported smoother, tighter skin.  In the multi-center trials, the majority of patients studied reported improvement in their appearance, ranging from subtle to dramatic.

What is Thermage?

In simplified terms, Thermage^TM uses radio frequency (RF) to heat the dermis of the skin to induce a "healing response".  As a result, the skin tightens and wrinkles disappear over subsequent weeks from treatment (only ONE treatment is required).  It takes between 2-5 months to see the full benefit of the treatment and results are permanent, although the skin will continue to undergo the normal and usual effects of aging.  The therapy can be repeated as often as desired but long lasting results are the norm.
