Si tratta del titolo di una brochure che illustra tutti i trattamenti medico-cosmetici di dermatologia che si effettuano in una spa, centro termale d'avanguardia che include anche trattamenti tradizionali a base di acque termali, fanghi etc.
E' accettabile "Themal plastic dermatology" o suggerisce piuttosto l'uso del calore. Qui si parla di peeling, picotage, filling implants, rimage, bio lifting e cosi' via.
Grazie anticipate.

Thermal Dermatology
Plastic Dermatology is an Italian invention. I would definitely use "Thermal" but be careful with "Plastic". Few people will understand why it is used in this context so it's better to keep the title generic. Since your client practices state-of-the-art techniques you might want to leave it to arouse curiosity.

Instead of \"plastic\" I\'d use \"Aesthetic\".

Your note - I\'d drop \"Thermal\" then making it simply \"Aesthetic\" or \"Cosmetic\" Dermatology without \"at the Spa\".

Mirella:
That\'s why the medium level of confidence. This treatment is carried out with radio frequency and it is the alternative to surgical lifting:

Besides, I couln\'t find any reference to the literal translation.
I can think of *non-surgical lifting* but it doesn\'t sound that appealing...
I will keep on searching.

: In "plastic surgery" the word plastic is used to imply "remodelling". Now it's more common to use "aesthetic" or "cosmetic". Here "plastica" is used the same way.
