thermage misinformation, misleading and wrong information
I had to say something. I was actually on a doctor’s website this morning and I am sure he is not that ignorant, or maybe he is, or the person writing his blog, or both. The person said thermage is a multiple treatment procedure and they quoted a low cost. Everything they said makes no sense. It is a one time treatment. Many many years later the effect of my one treatment are so obvious that I look better today then 7 years ago before my single treatment. Its really scary the amount of misinformation out there. Is it possible that he is not treating properly as well ? Its pretty frightening. Make sure you go to a Pinnacle award or black diamond award winner. And dont forget they are now awarding that for Fraxel as well. So it could be awarded for the combined experience of fraxel and thermage. If you really want to narrow it down to the best, go to one that is Black Diamond and Pinnacle award for thermage only, you can tell because they would not even have a fraxel… It just shows that they are focused and more experienced at Thermage alone. I actually just went back to the doctor’s website. He said the treatment could take a few minutes to an hour. I did a little research, If he is charging that little he could be using reconditioned or black market tips risking burning the patient, or perhaps he is splitting tips meaning he is treating more than one person on the same tip. Kinda like a puppy mill for thermage. Whatever he is doing he certainly is not committed to getting the best results. I have never heard of needing more than one treatment for the same area. He clearly has no clue or needs retraining. I actually wrote to the President of Thermage to please have his rep call him and retrain him and teach him the right way to do the procedure
