WORTH IT$1,199
I had both done around 6 months ago; and came in every 3/4 weeks to get all four procedures done around my eyes and mouth. It takes awhile as they have to apply a grounding pad on you and use a jelly substance to protect your skin. I noticed nothing more than a little warmth during the procedure and one of my eyes did have muscle contractions just while the wand was being used over the area. Immediately I could see a difference on my eyes, it made my eyes look like I had a brow lift and the skin around both has only gotten better. I wasn't sure about about the mouth area but over time the skin looks plumper and more youthful. My husband even commented about how much more youthful I look. I'm very happy with my results and would definitely do it again when needed.

Did you use numbing cream prior?

No, they use a jelly that works as a barrier between the lazer and your skin and as long as they use a nice amount, it's painless. Just a little warm.

I got a consult today for my eyes

Sweet! If you do it, I hope you have as good an experience as I did. I'll definitely get it done again if I need it.

Getting this done next week. One post said her eyes had indentations then later had bags.

It happens later. You look great in the beginning and then it keeps on tightening. For me, I went for having only a few underwater wrinkles to having an abundance almost 6 months after my last treatment. My eyes have hollowed and shrunk. If you don't think it can happen check out ipl-radio frequency-complications-damages.com. It's outrageous what can happen and zero accountability from the company who produces the product.

I only did RF. 2 minutes baths later I had my annual IPL treatment but the damage from the Thermi was apparent with the undereye wrinkles and the change to my orbital area-hollowed and eyes shrunk. The IPL made it worse and now I have an indentation under my right eye as well. My mouth looks smaller and I have deeper marionette lines than I did before I started. Now the icing on the cake is that my mouth is slightly crooked so I look like hell and look like I've had a mild stroke. It's hard to believe but it happened- my face is ruined because of this alleged non-invasive procedure. Do not do it!!

41 yrs old ThermiSmooth around mouth/eyes
Here are a few pictures of the after. I know I have some before showing fine lines around my eyes (smile marks) and lips, on my desktop. I'll find those sometime this week and get them posted. My skin seems to get smoother and softer as each month goes by. I'm really enjoying my results. I might try having it done more on the big silver dollar sized scar between my eyebrows on my forehead next. Dr. Arianna said that could really help that (but it has already gotten so much better just from the four treatments around my eyes).
I had a look of "smokers" mouth before, you know, the fine lines you get around your mouth from loss of colagen over time. And now the entire area is so much smoother & plumped up- I don't see anywhere that's really bad like it was before. I want to stress that as I did my treatments, I waited 6 weeks between each, although I often did my eyes/mouth at the same appointment. I decided to stretch it to wait for the full time in between for results. Not sure if it made a difference but to me it did.

Do you have any photos of before for comparision?
March 12, 2016
I do, I was out of town. Will look on my desk top today for them; if not I will get them from my doctors office next week.
April 14, 2016
Ok so they are having problems getting them emailed to me but they are trying to figure it out. As soon as they do I will upload them!
April 14, 2016
Did you have any filler in your face or around your eyes when you did this? Thanks.

I had voluma xc already in my cheek area before I had the ThermiSmooth done. I actually asked if it was going to be a problem because of things I'd read on here but I was told it wouldn't affect it. I didn't have any problems after either but I have read some people have.

Hi have you had any problems with the thermismooth eyes at all ? I read that one article from kcouter and now I'm scared . Not sure if I want to continue . Please let me know . She had complications 8 months later
April 24, 2016
I haven't- my results I've been very happy with. But I have to add I went to an actual medical doctors office and the aesthetician who administered mine was thoroughly trained with the procedure. I'm still trying to get my "before" pictures, and I see her Monday so I'm going to ask her about them again. But I will post updated pictures in natural light without make up tomorrow so you can see my nearly 9 months out progress. I have had no negative side effects at all.

That is good to hear. I was thinking about cancelling the rest of mine. I heard about hollows ,etc. and it was quite scary!
April 25, 2016
I'm not going through with it . I'm just going to go to a plastic surgeon and get a partial facelift and my eyes at same time . I'm also scared of the fat atrophy which leads to hollow looking eyes
April 26, 2016
I personally think that's smart if you have enough issues to do a partial facelift. If I had been okay with doing a lower bleph and being out of work for awhile, that's what I would have done. Instead, I tried the allegedly non-invasive thermismooth treatment and will pay for it for the rest of my life. The skin tightening is not permanent but fat atrophy and actual shrinkage is permanent. Ridiculous amount of risk for something that is not very predictive in terms of outcomes. I'm happy for those who have had no issues with it and actually had positive outcomes. This is too variable and I think people are playing with fire with this procedure. Just my opinion but I wake up everyday wishing I could go back one year and change the decision I made to go through with the procedure. I'm angry and sad and feel alone because no one today can help. It doesn't hurt which is one reason why I did it but the unpredictable nature is simply not worth it. I wish you all the best in your journey!

Do you have any pictures of the after effects you have? I would be happy to take a look and tell you what I see and what can help you, as I have a lot of knowledge about different procedures and I was even practicing to be an esthetician, but changed career paths. Fat shouldn’t be permanently damaged because only procedures that kill fat cells can cause permanent fat loss. If thermismooth causes this, there needs to be a lawsuit. For now, you need to replenish the youthful fat in your face by taking Avocado oil by mouth 1 tablespoon everyday, eating healthy fats and cholesterol like ghee, and look into liquid collagen to take as a supplement to give a more youthful appearance.

I was told to get 6 procedures and that is the norm. Four sounds better to me!
April 27, 2016
I have 4 more to go. I decided to go through with it after speaking to the technician . She uses the correct frequency just for the eyes

Hi, did u notice a good brow lift? Did it last? And was it $1500 each time you had the treatment. You look great :) hope all is well xo
August 10, 2017
Tht was the price for the whole package deal. 3 sessions of eyes and 3 sessions of mouth. It was a better deal if bought up front. The brow lift was awesome and it's lasted so far. I'll be 43 in 2 months and I don't have sagging skin or deep lines, just very minimal fine lines. I'd definitely do it again.
