Thermage treatment is best demonstrated by before and afters. It is great for loose skin. But its subtle. In fact its perfect for the loose skin one gets after weight loss and even after a liposuction treatment. Let me make it simple and put a few up with explanations. Almost every picture is from 3 to 9 months after the procedure. You have to understand a properly administered Thermage treatment affects the collagen layer. It needs to be strong enough to stimulate the body to grow new collagen which creates an even smoother and greater effect which actually begins at around 3 months and continues on to about 6 months. DONT let anyone retreat you in less than 6 months. You will actually stop the most important part of the process. Unless its a highly skilled office with an Exilis machine which they can set at a cooler setting that can actually encourage your body to make even more collagen. Another strong treatment at this point would interfere with your body making new collagen. Look critically at the before and afters for any procedure you are considering. Its obvious that Thermage treatment sweet spot is loose skin. It does help with smoother skin fat loss and even cellulite. Although a much better choice for cellulite is acoustic wave. The acoustic wave treatment is the gold standard for treating cellulite in Europe. We are a little slower here adopting some technologies. Another great treatment in Europe which is slowly taking hold in the US is Exilis. Exilis therapy like thermage is a radio frequency treatment, so it will remodel collagen. Unlike Thermage, Exilis requires multiple treatments vs one for thermage. For the face Exilis requires four treatments. For the body Exilis requires six treatments and a different tip is utilized to melt fat. The beauty of Exilis is that it is painless, feels like a warm stone massage. Also you can keep treating the same area for an even greater result. The thermage treatment is best performed by the most experienced technicians easily found by the black diamond designation.
With that in mind lets start.
PS we might veer off into other procedures since there are so many today that merit discussion
