Quick answer · What is Thermage Eye?
Thermage Eye is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical treatment that uses monopolar radiofrequency with a small eye tip to heat the dermis of the upper and lower eyelids. Protective eye shields are placed and cooling protects the skin surface. The heat tightens collagen and stimulates new collagen, improving mild hooding and fine lines over two to three months. A session takes about 30–45 minutes with minimal downtime.

How it works
Radiofrequency designed for the eyelids
Thermage Eye uses a smaller tip so radiofrequency heat can be delivered safely to thin eyelid skin, with protective shields over the eyes during treatment. Existing collagen contracts and new collagen forms over the following months, which helps firm mild hooding and smooth crepey lines.
-
Preparation & shields
Numbing cream is applied to the lids, then anaesthetic eye drops and protective eye shields are placed.
-
RF pulses
The eye tip delivers short pulses of warmth across the upper and lower lids and crow’s feet.
-
Firming builds
Shields are removed and skin may look smoother the same day; tightening develops over two to three months.
Before & after
Smoother lids and a fresher eye area
