Is It Safe to Have Thermage After Botox Injection? Is it safe to have thermage CPT done 1 day after botox injection for Crow's fleet and forehead lines?

A: Botox and Thermage

I would recommend waiting at least 72 hours after administration of Botox, if having Thermage to the same area. Secondly, I would consider evaluating your goals with Thermage since the results have been very inconsistent.

Titan for "Turkey Neck" After Thermage Stops Working? I'm 53 and am happy w/my face except for the vertical cords of loose skin on my neck. I've had Thermage 3x, each about a year apart and although the first couple treatments showed marked improvement, the last one did not. I'd like to avoid the knife if possible & am not a candidate for SmartLipo as this is simply loose skin, not fat. Would Titan work? Thanks in advance.

A: Titan for Vertical Cords in Neck? Save Your Money

The condition you are describing, known as "plastysmal bands" is best dealt with from a surgical approach, or platysmaplasty. I have seen no evidence that Titan will improve this condition and would not suggest it to my patients. In certain circumstances, Botox can help with platysmal bands, but not to the same degree or for as long as surgery. Platysmaplasty can be incorporated into a Facelift technique or in a limited incision neck lift, depending on the circumstances.
