At ฿30,000 → Ulthera face fits the budget and reaches 3 depth layers. Stretch to ฿50,000 → Thermage for longer durability.
I'm flying to Bangkok for a few days and want skin tightening without surgery, how much does a full-face Thermage FLX session cost at Waleerat?
A full-face Thermage FLX session at Waleerat starts from about 28,000 baht, with the final price depending on the number of RF shots and the area treated. The cartridge is single-use, so pricing scales with shot count. A doctor confirms the exact plan and final price before we begin, and results build gradually over about 2 to 6 months.
My friend wants to do Profhilo on the same visit while I get Thermage on my face, can we book together and is there any package discount?
Yes, you can both book the same visit and combine treatments. Thermage FLX (monopolar RF tightening) and Profhilo target different things, so they can pair well. The exact plan and pricing depend on the areas and shot count, confirmed at your consultation.
I'm in my late forties with mild jawline sagging and I'm a bit nervous about RF, is Thermage FLX safe and right for my skin?
Thermage FLX is generally suitable for mild to moderate jawline laxity, and most patients tolerate the FLX comfort-pulse well, though a doctor confirms if it suits you. It also helps the cheeks and under the chin. It is not advised during pregnancy or with active infection in the area. Results vary by skin and age.
12 more questions
I only have a three-day trip in Bangkok, after Thermage FLX is there real downtime and can I safely fly home the next day?
Thermage FLX has essentially no real downtime, so most patients fly home the next day comfortably and return to normal activity right away. You may notice mild redness or slight swelling for a few hours. We suggest gentle skincare and sun protection afterward. A short trip is usually fine, though individual recovery can vary.
How many Thermage FLX sessions and how many shots would I realistically need for sagging cheeks and a soft jawline?
Most people need just one Thermage FLX session per cycle, with a full face commonly using around 600 to 900 RF shots; cheeks and jawline alone need fewer. A session is typically repeated once every 12 to 18 months as collagen renews. The doctor sets the exact shot count after assessing your skin, and results build gradually.
How is Thermage FLX actually different from HIFU, and which one should I pick for loose skin on my lower face?
For loose skin on the lower face, Thermage FLX firms a broad area with monopolar RF while HIFU lifts deeper, targeted zones, so a doctor advises which suits you. Thermage heats the skin's surface layers for overall tightening and texture; HIFU (MFU-V) sends focused ultrasound deeper to lift specific spots. They can also complement each other, and results vary.
Is it painful?
Sensation is described as a brief deep heat. Modern protocols are significantly more comfortable than early-generation devices.
How long does one Thermage session take?
A full-face Thermage FLX session is 60–75 minutes including topical anaesthetic and post-care. Add 30 minutes if you're combining with the neck (typical for patients 45+ where the neck softens before the face). For time-conscious professionals, we book Thermage in the late afternoon — you walk out at 5:30pm and go straight to a normal evening, no downtime.
Will I need multiple sessions or is one enough?
One Thermage FLX session is the standard protocol — collagen remodelling continues for 6 months after the single treatment. Maintenance is once every 12–18 months, which is what the maintenance package is built around: locked-in pricing for the follow-up session at the 14–16 month mark. Patients who skip maintenance see results soften back over 24 months; patients who maintain hold the lift indefinitely.
Can I get this done during my lunch break?
Realistically — yes for the procedure itself, but plan a long lunch (90 minutes including parking + topical numbing). The treatment is comfortable enough that most professionals walk back to the office and finish their afternoon meetings. Skin may be mildly pink for 30–60 minutes post-session; for camera-facing roles (Zoom-heavy days, presentations), we recommend booking after-hours instead.
Is Radiofrequency Tightening (Thermage FLX) halal-friendly?
Energy-based treatment — no injected or topical substance enters the body. Halal-compatible by default (no ingredient question). If you avoid animal-derived materials, this treatment is open to you. Tell the physician at consultation and the specific product and lot used on the day can be confirmed with you. This reflects the ingredients used, not a halal certification.
What happens during a Radiofrequency Tightening session?
Mapping — Treatment grid mapped onto skin. Pulses — Each pulse heats then cools — protecting epidermis. Sculpt — Vector-based pulses for structural lift. A physician assesses your face first and sets the plan; what is done and where follows from that assessment.
Who is a good candidate for Radiofrequency Tightening?
Generally considered for: Mild to moderate skin laxity · Brow, jawline and neck softening · Patients prioritising clinical longevity. Whether it suits you is decided by a physician at assessment, and there are people for whom it is not advised.
What is the recovery like after Radiofrequency Tightening?
Downtime: None. That is the general case rather than a promise about you; ask your physician before planning anything that depends on the date.
How many sessions before I see results?
Initial tightening immediate; full remodelling at 4–6 months. Lasts 18–24 months.
Thermage, Ultherapy, Oligio and Ultraformer — how to choose
Ulthera and Ultraformer are focused ultrasound: energy is delivered to the deep support layer, and that is what produces lift. Thermage FLX and Oligio X are monopolar radiofrequency: the dermis is heated more broadly, and that is what firms skin and improves texture. Lift and firmness are different problems, and many patients are treated with one of each rather than choosing between them.
Ultraformer MPT is where most patients start — the shortest session, no downtime, and the lowest starting price of the group. Across the clinic's own treatment history, Ultraformer has been used by more patients than any other lifting device. Patients who want a deeper or longer-held result move up to Ulthera SPT or Prime for lift, or Thermage FLX for firmness across the whole face.
