Accent Laser: Q&A
Ask a QuestionIs Accent XL and Ultrashape As Effective As Thermage for Skin Tightening?
I have had body by Thermage on my bottom and love handles and like the results, but it was expensive and painful and I required pain killers. I was going to go ahead and do it again on my abdomen and the front of my thighs, but I saw some write ups for Accent XL, which is cheaper than Thermage and Ultrashape which is not available in U.S yet, and I am wondering if they will give me the same results without the pain and expense. Thanks.

Nice to hear that you had good...
