The future of non-surgical skin rejuvenation has arrived—on wheels. As part of a groundbreaking national campaign, Thermage and Fraxel have launched the illumiNATION Tour, a cross-country initiative designed to showcase the latest innovations in skin tightening and resurfacing technologies. With stops in major cities across the U.S., this tour aims to educate patients and providers alike about the transformative power of Thermage CPT and Fraxel re:store Dual systems.
These technologies are already generating significant buzz in the beauty and aesthetics world—and now, they’re rolling into the spotlight for a broader audience.
What Is the illumiNATION Tour?
The illumiNATION Tour is more than just a promotional campaign—it’s an immersive educational experience. Sponsored by Solta Medical, the company behind both Thermage and Fraxel, the tour brings top industry experts, live demonstrations, and media coverage to showcase how these technologies are redefining skin care for modern patients.
Throughout the tour, patients and prospective clients have the opportunity to witness treatments firsthand, learn about safety, efficacy, and see before-and-after transformations—all from real users and trained professionals.
Spotlight on Thermage CPT: Comfort Pulse Technology
One of the main highlights of the illumiNATION Tour is Thermage CPT. Known for its ability to tighten and contour the skin without surgery or downtime, Thermage just got a significant upgrade. With the introduction of Comfort Pulse Technology (CPT), the treatment is more effective and more comfortable than ever before.
Key Benefits of Thermage CPT:
-
Increased Comfort: Vibrating handpieces and controlled pulse delivery make the treatment far more tolerable for patients.
-
More Efficient Heat Delivery: CPT delivers radiofrequency energy evenly across the skin’s surface, increasing treatment precision.
-
Improved Skin Tightening Results: Patients can expect better contouring with fewer sessions compared to older Thermage models.

Fraxel re:store Dual: The Next Generation of Laser Resurfacing
Also featured on the tour is Fraxel re:store Dual, a revolutionary treatment that offers dual-laser capabilities. Designed to tackle everything from sun damage and fine lines to age spots and acne scars, Fraxel’s newest system includes a 1927 nm Thulium laser, allowing for greater versatility and improved results on body areas beyond the face.
Fraxel re:store Dual Highlights:
-
Dual-Wavelength System: Targets both surface and deep skin layers
-
Faster Recovery Time: Improved comfort and quicker healing with new cooling features
-
Effective Pigment Reduction: Quicker clearance of unwanted pigmentation and tone irregularities
-
25% Increase in Treatment Speed: Get more done in less time without sacrificing results
Together, Thermage and Fraxel represent a powerful non-invasive duo—one focused on firming and lifting the skin, and the other on improving texture and tone.
