What is the difference between ThermiTight and Thermi 250?

Great question!  ThermiTight uses RF energy beneath the skin (via a very thin thermistor) and can effectively tighten, tone, and contour using access points that are so tiny that they close on their own.  The treatment is usually done once and requires injection of numbing solution prior to treatment.ThermiSmooth, on the other hand, uses RF energy externally to perform the same treatment.  The process usually involves anywhere from 3-6 treatments each spaced a few weeks apart and there is ZERO downtime.  Which treatment is best for you is tough to say and really requires consultation with a physician who has experience using both treatments.  I would encourage you to check out the ThermiRF website to find a trained/experienced provider in your area.  I hope that helps!

The knee requires internal and externing heating for improvement, sometimes VASER liposuction hi definition.  I suggest a formal consultation to determine what is best.  Dr. Emer.

Thanks for your question.  ThermiTight and Thermi250 are both treatments using radiofrequency (RF) energy for the purpose of melting fat and tightening skin and in my opinion both are uniquely better at accomplishing this than any other device on the market.  Thermi250 is non-surgical and is applied to the skin in a series of usually 4 treatments 2-4 weeks apart.  It is comfortable and requires no down-time and not only tightens skin, but also causes some reduction in the underlying fat.  ThermiTight is a minimally-invasive procedure, which requires injection of a local anesthetic and one or more small punctures of the skin made with a large needle.  The ThermiTight cannula is then inserted under the skin by the surgeon and RF energy is applied to the under-side of the skin (the dermis) and the superficial layer of fat.  This is usually a one-time procedure and results in more dramatic skin tightening than the Thermi250.  ThermiTight can be used on any part of the body and legs are quite popular with excellent results in skin tightening and even reduction in cellulite.  The ThermiTight generator can also be used to perform ThermiVa (non-surgical painless vaginal restoration), ThermiRase (nerve deactivation to treat wrinkles - think 2-year Botox), and ThermiDry (to treat excessive underarm perspiration).  We have both devices at our Bellevue office and we perform all of the above procedures.  Our Thermi patients are among the most satisfied with their results.  See the link below and view the video of ThermiTight treatment to the chin and neck to get an idea of what's involved.
