Should the Venus Legacy procedure be performed by an Esthetician or a Doctor?

I went for a consult and never saw the doctor. This treatment was recommended by the Esthetician, along with the ultra shape for my inner thighs

You don't need to be a doctor to perform this treatment .It can be easily performed by a properly trained healthcare provider. Having said that , it is best to seek treatment in a  cosmetic facility that has an MD  because the doctor can assesss  your problem and determine if you are a good candidate for the Legacy vs another treatment,  or using  a combination approach.

Seeing an Expert = Priceless--Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra, Cellutone, ZWave

I recommend seeing an expert for best outcomes. For best results, Venus Legacy and Ultrashape should be combined with other treatments like Exilis Ultra and Cellutone/Zwave. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer
