Will multiple sessions of Profound RF increase the percentage of noticeable results?

Question

If one treatment of Profound RF delivers about 33% of the results of a surgical facelift, would a second treatment add another 33%, bringing the total result to 66%? Or do the results from multiple treatments not add up in a linear way? I mean if I had one treatment and doing second one after one year does it add up another 33% facelift?

Thanks Glorious386724 for your question! The "one-third of a facelift" analogy is only an approximation that may change based on personal circumstances.
Although Profound RF is an effective non-surgical procedure that may greatly enhance skin texture and laxity, it should not be mistaken for a surgical facelift. More severe drooping and loose skin, especially in the neck and lower face, can be addressed with a surgical facelift. Profound RF can give a more subdued lift and is better suited for mild to moderate skin laxity.
The cumulative effect of several Profound RF treatments is not linear. Although a single procedure might, sometimes, replicate around 33% of the outcomes of a surgical facelift, the benefits of further procedures will decrease over time.
Individual characteristics including age, skin type, and lifestyle might affect the results. While some people might need more sessions, others might get more noticeable improvements with fewer treatments.   
To find the ideal amount of treatments for your particular requirements and objectives, it's crucial to speak with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. They are able to evaluate the state of your skin and suggest a customized course of action.
Hope this was helpful!

No, one treatment of profound does not deliver 33% of the results of a facelift. And, it's not linear.  Basically, they do different things. Morpheus 8 or Profound RF tighten the skin and can build collagen. This helps you look younger.  It goes along with a facelift and doesn't replace it, though if you are young can delay it.
