It is done in four to six sessions at two to four week intervals. Because it holds a target temperature, each session gives a modest stimulus, and the count makes up for it. The jawline and neck look tidier over one to two months, and the result settles more evenly as sessions add up.

Thermage heats strongly in one pass and holds one to two years; InMode maintains a target temperature across several divided sessions. It measures temperature continuously and adjusts power automatically, so no spot ends up unusually hot. If you want less intensity and a more even result, InMode is the one.

There is no downtime and you can wear make-up the same day, because the power is adjusted automatically so the target temperature is never exceeded and no wound is left on the surface. It feels warm during the session, and you only need to skip the sauna on the day so the heated areas can settle.
