What is a better laser for the neck Skin Tyte or Themi smooth?

Bella RoseFeb 18, 2015
I had ThermiRF and chin lipo 2 weeks ago. My Dr was going to do 2 Thermi Smooth procedures, on my neck but, changed his mind to use Skin tyte saying the results were the same. I already had the first Skin Tyte treatment for my neck. What is the difference between Thermi Smooth and Skin Tyte for the neck? TY

ThermiSmooth 250 is great for thin sagging skin under the eyes. It can be done after surgery after the tissues heal in a couple of months with no problems. Fillers should be done first and after a couple of weeks add the gentile heat of ThermiSmooth 250 for a great result. Hope this helps. JB
