Thinking about having Thermage mainly to help with loose skin in neck area, is it worth the price?
Answer: Ulthera for the neck area in Los Angeles
Although Thermage works well on the neck, I have found far better results in my practice with the Ulthera procedure for the neck. Raffy Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Answer: Predicting Thermage results Like other areas, results with Thermage on the neck depend upon a few factors. With more experience, we are getting better at predicting who will get a good response. Most importantly, because it works by stimulating the collagen in the skin to regenerate, there has to be some healthy collagen there to begin with. A good way to tell is if there is some elasticity to the skin; if you tug on it, it should snap back. This of course dimishes with age, so that is another factor. Some people are down on Thermage because it was marketed as an alternative to a facelift which it isn't. If your skin is significantly loose then your results with Thermage will be disappointing. It is unfortunate that the more you need something done the less likely Thermage is to be the solution, but there are a lot of people in the in-between category, who have some laxity to the skin but not a lot. Typically these patients are in their late 30's's to early 50's.

Answer: Thermage is excellent at the neck area and jowels for tightening the skin Thermage is the only non-surgical, single treatment procedure, to tighten the skin. Thermage is most effective in the lower face and neck with tightening skin that is a little loose. If you have severe wrinkling or skin laxity, however, Thermage will not give you the results that you want. You should see an experienced Dermatologist to make an informed decision to see if you are a good candidate.

Answer: Thermage works great on the neck Thermage is a non-invasive, radiofrequency technique to tighten skin. I have incooporated Thermage to tighten face, neck, upper arms, buttocks, inner thighs, knees, and hands with great results. There are two generation Thermage units and I recommend checking with your surgeon/physician as to which unit he/she has. Having the second generation unit makes the procedures faster and better tolerated by the clients. Thermage has reduced the need for submental liposuction in many patients. Until my patients are ready for a surgical procedure to tighten the neck skin and remove fatty deposits, Thermage provides a non-invasive procedure with no down time. I highly recommend this treatment.
