“Bruising Seems Contradictive to Safe and Healthy - Boise, ID”
Spent: $0 in Boise, Idaho
Posted 4 Feb 2012
I won my session so I guess I cannot complain about the ROI, but I am very skeptical about the bruising. The sides of my thighs looked like I had been in a car accident. Yes the tech did tell me there would be some bruising--I would call this more than "some". During the procedure, I mentioned to her 4 times it was uncomfortable--finally she turned it down. Here is my concern, why is this procedure causing so many of us to be in pain, get burned and bruised? I have read through these reviews and there seems to be a common tread--the docs or techs are either under-trained or just plain do not give a !@#$. Both of which--FDA approved or not--is down right scary. Ladies, I say be diligent and use caution. Ask a lot of questions, and before the procedure TELL (not ask) your tech that when you say you are uncomfortable they agree to listen!

Wow, it certainly doesn't sound like you had the best experience. How long have the bruises on your thighs been there?
Yeah, I don't blame you. At least its winter so you can hide it easily with pants, but still!
