Pain after thermitight. Is it normal?

Patients may experience some swelling after the procedure, but this swelling should subside a few days after the procedure. There is no need to worry, and I would suggest following up with your surgeon.

Thermi
Tight is a minimally invasive procedure to treat skin laxity of the neck and
other areas of the body. Pain afterwards is normal as is the
numbness. Pain is mostly related to swelling. We tape and add
a compression garment to the neck for a few days afterwards to minimize
swelling, and therefore pain.

 Thermitight is a minimally invasive office procedure for skin tightening. A numbing solution is used during the procedure. After the procedure you may experience some pain discomfort or numbness.  This should only last for a few days. Sometimes numbness may last a few weeks.  It is a little unusual for you to still be having some numbness and discomfort with your collar touching your neck. Nothing to worry about and the symptoms should improve with a little more time. Make sure you follow up with your surgeon.

The numbness is something that is transient and will resolve over several weeks. It is not unusual to have some discomfort along the neck at this stage in your healing, especially if something is causing mild compression like a shirt because the deeper tissues are still healing. This should quickly improve though with time.
