  • Posted to Thermage -London, UK on 12 Nov 2012
    I've got a notice some weeks before from an european lady. She had RF (Accent RF) treatment done almost a year ago and got severe damage to her face and neck, many symptoms are just like ours and her condition is deteriorating very fast... My opinion is that all heat based devices can cause these terrible damages and a lot of problems for the Health! They are not worth the risk.

    Hi jacuzil12
    its absolute correct that you dont vote immediately after the treatment. As man you may need more than 1 year for the result. I now recommend you to take photos also from your neck, hands, knees and maybe feets. Compare the pictures in 2 or more years.
    Please post also in one year and also in two years. Thanks.

    Hi,
    Pelleve - the former name was "Radiage" is also a rf-system. Fine that you enjoy it. We had a long call with a lady about Radiage. From friends she had heard that the rf worked fine. She had bad luck with the devise. The fat loss was so enormously that she wanted already after 3 months to go under the knife for correction her face!
    In the from me already mentioned German study "Skin rejuvenation by radiofreqency therapy: methods, effects and risks" (Uwe Paasch et al., Universitätsklinikum Leipzig, 2008. The short but clear Summary of the 6 pages is visible in the Wiley Online Library there are pictures from a radiage victim. Terrible burns like in the early Thermage times!
    So all devices are not without risk. Just healthy people should think about it when they must not have a treatment.

    Thank you Britt,
    we must change - better we must reduce radically -our life after Thermage. In our faces we need 1 - 2 times yearly ha injections. Because the lymph tracts under the eyes of my wife are burned she has a lot of problems when the sun shines. And she has a lot of pain. This comes with collagenosis. But medication can not heal this and cause a lot of side effects. So in dec new blood tests take place. And a consultation in an university clinic is agreed upon. Our health will never come back.

    For people who want to reed more about rf from doctors, there is a German study "Skin rejuvenation by radiofreqency therapy: methods, effects and risks" (Uwe Paasch et al., Universitätsklinikum Leipzig, 2008. The short but clear Summary of the 6 pages is visible in the Wiley Online Library.

    Dear 849994anon,
    nearly 4 years ago my wife an I got Thermage treatment in Germany. For both a real desaster. I recommend you and other patients with continuous fat loss to check the possibility of the illness at collagenosis. My wife has very high ANA values (antibodies in the blood). More important is to meet specialized doctors with experience with more patients in collagenosi
    s (University or private clinics). Otherwise it's maybe to be judged heavily the damages - not only in the face.
    I recommend to copy this lines immediately...
