I have had several procedures done at Thrive: lip filler, exilis laser on my belly and eyelids, a little bit of Emsculpt on my rear, and RF microneedling on my neck. Each and every experience had been very positive, and for the most part I have achieved the desired results each time. Everyone in the office, from reception to Dr Maddox himself, is extremely personable and KNOWLEDGEABLE about the services they offer. I have been very pleased with the results I have gotten at Thrive. Dr Maddox is very skilled at what he does, I LOVE my lips (i was really concerned about them looking natural) which he totally nailed the first and only time I went in for the treatment, and he also had an approach to botox that was different to what I had been getting at a different provider and I like my results so much better (oh yeah, I just had botox done there too)! Julia and Lauren also are so kind and so skilled, and will work hard to get you the result you are looking for. I will continue to trust them with my cosmetic "needs" in the future. Highly recommended.
I saw Dr. Maddox for Botox for lines I wanted corrected a few months ago and decided to go back for filler in my lips. Dr. Maddox suggested we go slow as you can’t take away just add more. After 3 visits I am in LOVE with my lips and get many compliments on them. Dr. Maddox takes the time to listen to your wants and needs and approaches them with care. The office is clean and modern. The staff always remembers my name and my progress and treats me like family! I highly recommend Dr. Maddox and team!
I had 6 treatments and saw fantastic results. The results started to really be noticeable after the 4th treatment. They continued even after the treatment was finished. This was the easiest way to get rid of the belly at that just wouldn't go away. This procedure is completely safe and comfortable. I did this on my lunch break for 1/2 hour once a week for 6 weeks. I lost several inches and did not change my diet or exercise.
I've had 2 C-sections at resulted in 2 beautiful 10 lb babies so my muscles have been cut in the same place twice. That was over 30 years ago and and I am well over 50 now. That has led to belly fat that I have worked to get rid of for 30 years. I considered a tummy tuck but the scars and down time were too much for me. I saw the Vanquish info at Thrive and decided I'd give it a try. It was so simple! The most complicated part of the whole procedure was making sure i drank enough water the day before, of, and after treatments. Spending half an hour lying I a quiet room relaxing and loosing fat was about the coolest thing I could think of doing with that time! More than anything it reduced the size of clothes I wear. Well worth doing. Thank you Thrive in Portland. Awesome experience and outstanding staff!
Started with 4 treatments around my abs and love handles. I added two more treatments to get me closer to where I wanted to be. I lost a total of 2.5 inches. Treatments were not painful. Sometimes there are hot spots but not a big deal. You have to drink lots of water before and after the treatments to make them more effect. There was not downtime or side effects that I experienced. All in all it was a good experience and would recommend it
