It is a comfortable procedure with no downtime, that is well-tolerated by patients.
Our skin–the body’s largest organ–is wonderfully resilient. But as we grow older, small imperfections gradually become more prominent. Over time, the skin loses its ability to produce collagen and other substances that help the skin regenerate and keep the skin supple. Fortunately, there are innovative treatments that can help you combat the signs of aging.
New York board-certified dermatologist Dr. Cameron Rokhsar is pleased to offer ThermiSmooth1 treatments at both his Manhattan and Garden City, Long Island offices. An expert in expert in non-invasive cosmetic procedures, he has helped patients achieve more radiant skin–without surgery.
ThermiSmooth is a non-invasive procedure that uses controlled radiofrequency (RF)2 to smooth fine lines, stimulate collagen growth and improve skin laxity. The innovative device delivers heat energy to the dermis, jumpstarting a collagen-building process. Over time, the skin will reveal the effects of the procedure, with full results visible in about 3-6 months. It is a customizable procedure and can be focused on areas of more concern. Ideal areas for this treatment are around the mouth, eyes, cheeks, and neck. It is a comfortable procedure with no downtime, that is well-tolerated by patients.
The ThermiSmooth RF skin treatment has several advantages:
The best candidates for ThermiSmooth are in good health and have mild-to-moderate skin laxity. It can be an excellent complementary treatment to other skin-enhancing procedures. The treatment is not appropriate for individuals with advanced signs of aging and severe skin laxity. In some cases, surgery may be the best option to lift the skin and realize the desired results.
Dr. Rokhsar will perform your ThermiSmooth treatments as an outpatient procedure at either his New York or Long Island offices. During the treatment, Dr. Rokhsar applies a small handheld device to massage the skin in target areas and deliver radiofrequency waves that heat up the skin. As the skin’s temperature rises, an anti-inflammatory response is triggered in the skin. The typical outcome of this response is the production of new collagen. A series of a few treatments are recommended to achieve the desired cosmetic result that can vary per patient.
After treatment, patients can expect to experience some mild swelling or redness. These symptoms are normal and typically subside within a few hours.

ThermiSmooth is a non-invasive, painless procedure that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten and rejuvenate the skin, promoting the production of new collagen. The treatment is effective in reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, especially in the cheeks, around the mouth, and on the neck. It can also be used on the forehead and around the eyes. The procedure is performed using a temperature-controlled handpiece that is gently rolled on the skin, while heating targeted tissues below the skin’s surface. The heat stimulates collagen regeneration and provides a smoother surface, diminishes fine lines, shrinks the appearance of pores, and improves skin firmness. ThermiSmooth treatment has no downtime, and patients usually describe it as feeling like a warm massage.
In general, the results of ThermiSmooth treatment typically begin to appear within three to six months after the initial treatment and can last anywhere from nine months to over a year. This timeline may vary depending on the individual patient’s response to the treatment.
Maintenance treatments may be necessary to maintain the initial results. These touch-up sessions may be recommended every 9-12 months.
The final cost will depend on your individual needs and the treatment plan that is developed for you. During your consultation, we will evaluate your skin concerns and determine if ThermiSmooth is the right treatment for you. From there, we will provide you with a personalized treatment plan and an accurate cost estimate based on the number of sessions required.
The better version of Thermismooth is the Thermitight procedure. Both Thermismooth and Thermitight both use radiofrequency energy to heat up the skin to cause skin tightening. The Thermitight procedure gives patients much better results due to more effective heating delivered from inside out. The areas are first numbed with numbing fluid. A gentle probe is inserted under the skin to heat up the skin for maximum contraction. The Thermitight procedure is painless after numbing.
