I had radiofrequency of neck along with mini neck lift, 2 months ago and my doctor says it is still swollen and wants to see me in 2 months. He is happy with the neck lift (says it's "tight"). Personally, I cannot see that it is swollen. I know doctors have said the results are immediate, but in my case, they are not. What is your take on this? Thank you!
Answer: Radiofrequency to the neck Radiofrequency treatmetns to the neck vary in the amount of treatments necessary to the time in which you will see results. Machines like Pelleve require 6-8 treatments on the neck and you will start seeing some results around the fourth treatment.. Vivace is microneedling combined with radiofrequency and this is better for patients with textural issues as well as laxity. Usually 4 treatments are best of this. More invasive treatments like FaceTite are one and done and you will see some results as early as 6 weeks but continued improvement up to one year.My best,Sheila Nazarian

Answer: It is recommend to do a minimum of 3 treatments for the best results when doing Morpheus8 Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Answer: Radiofrequency Skin Tightening of the Neck Your main result is going to come from the neck lift. Though I am not sure what type of procedure was done and how 'mini' the lift was. RF skin tightening does work but the results aren't the same as surgery, and it helps to do a series of treatments and then maintain them to improve the result. It is a good option when there is not a lot of neck sagging and in patients who do not wish to undergo surgery.

Answer: Radiofrequency TIghtening With non-surgical tightening of the skin there is usually an immediate temporary effect from the heating of the collagen fibers. This usually goes away shortly after the treatment. The more long term effect tends to take 3-6 for the collagen to remodel. This is about the amount of time it takes for the swelling to fully resolve. Discuss this matter further with your surgeon. Best wishes.
