NCT ID NCT07187297
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing a device called Thermage FLX that uses radiofrequency energy to improve wrinkles and tighten loose skin on the neck, abdomen, upper arms, and face. About 164 adults with mild-to-moderate skin laxity or wrinkles will receive the treatment and be followed for 180 days. The goal is to see if the treatment safely reduces wrinkles and lifts sagging tissue.
