I also have soreness and numbness in my neck. Area under chin feels kind of jiggly and is still swollen. Does my healing fall within the normal time range for this procedure? The treatment focused on my lower face/jawline and neck.
Answer: Soreness and numbness after Profound RF Yes, that is perfectly normal. I suspect that some of the superficial sensory nerves in the skin get injured by the applied heat. The effect is temporary and resolves in 100% of patients. It may take several months to feel completely normal. Good luck

CONTACT NOW Answer: Prolonged soreness It is perfectly normal to have soreness and numbness for many weeks after the Profound RF procedure. The radio frequency that is delivered by the needles may cause temporary nerve damage. This will resolve in 100% of clients but it may take a few more weeks. As always it is best to see your provider in person if you have additional concerns about your healing.

Answer: I had a Profound treatment done almost three weeks ago. Is it normal for my jawline to be numb and sore? HI Belle,It is always best to address questions and concerns about a procedure that you have had to your treating physician. In general, patients may have some numbness and fullness for a few weeks after Profound RF treatment. If your "double chin" area was treated to reduce fat then it is common to have some "jiggly" for a few weeks. Please contact your treating physician for follow up. Good luck and be well.Dr. P

Answer: Profound RF recovery Thank you for your question. Typically the swelling does resolved by this timeframe, but you may still feel some residual swelling if you had a more aggressive treatment or one that involves different depths. Profound RF has both a deep dermal treatment level as well as one that is deeper to target the underlying fatty tissue in the areas under the chin. I would recommend that you revisit with your surgeon to help you discuss your present symptoms.

Answer: Yes, Profound can have prolonged pain Yes, Profound is extremely powerful in its delivery system, and the angle needles, especially in this area along with RF energy can hit some sensory nerves. This will settle down within the next few weeks, not, see a Physician for low dose pregabapentin. All the best,Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane, Australia.
