Nsaids after thermage

While there is some concern that suppresing inflammation may decrease the results of a nonnvasive skin tightening treatment, I do not believe that NSAIDs are likely to modify the outcomes achieved with Thermage.  I have been performing Thermage for 9 years or so and have never been able to make this correlation.
