Overview
Preheat Thermage is Gangnam Hera's two-step synergy lift. First, the Soprano Titanium laser warms the skin deeply, priming the tissue and organizing facial lines. Then Thermage FLX radiofrequency contracts and regenerates dermal collagen to complete the tightening. Priming before the radiofrequency stage lets energy pass more evenly and comfortably, for a firmer, smoother lift than radiofrequency alone.

Why it works
Titanium laser preheating primes the skin so the following Thermage stage tightens more completely.
Radiofrequency contracts existing collagen and stimulates new collagen in the dermis for lasting firmness.
Pre-warmed skin receives radiofrequency more smoothly, refining facial lines with less discomfort.
Treatment Areas
Precisely targeted and placed, tailored to your anatomy and goals.
