I am interested in getting skin tightening on my face and neck

By lightbulb on 02 Feb 2012

I am a 50 year old woman who has generally good skin tone and texture.I have been using retin A and botox and fillers on a regular basis for about ten years as a part of a maintenance program. My md suggested adding laser tigtening to my regime. I would prefer a system with as little down time per session as possible. What treatment would be best for this , what is the average cost roughly per treatment and how many should I receive to get a good result? What is therecommended time frame between treatments? Is there any other treatment I should be adding to my program considering my age and previous treatments? Thanx for any info

Dont! It won't work . A waste of money. I had Thermage done 2 years ago and it was painful and did nothing. So I went to another Doctor who basically told me skin tightners do not do anything

From what you describe I'm assuming you are seeing a dermatologist. If that's right, and you have been pleased with the care they have given you so far, you might want to ask what laser he/she has in their office and check out that specific one(s).
