THERMAGE THERMA LIFT RUINED MY NECK! I had fantastic results from the pearl laser at Dr. Vath's medical spa and should have stopped there. There treatments (pearl laser, microderm abrasion, chemical peels, etc)always left my face glowing and beautiful! The nurse that i normally work with was on maternity leave, so I tried a dermatologist in Boulder instead for a regular follow up of microderm abrasion. He suggested that I get a Thermage treatment, since I was a great candidate. That I would be VERY pleased with how much tighter/firmer my skin would look and feel. OMG, that could not have been further from the truth! It was HORRIBLE all the way around. The pain was so horrific, they almost overdosed me on Fentanyl, the nurse looked like she was going to pass out when I came to. The doctor just said you are all done. Within a month, one side of my face began to sag around my mouth and my neck got one thin strip of skin that just started to hang . There was absolutely no benefit to my face at all. I think Thermage is a scam. DON'T do it folks!

I'm sorry you went through all of that!  Do you still have the skin hanging or did it eventually go away?

Skin is still there. One thin strip ;( I'll post pics when I get to a computer. My ipad won't let me.

Totally agree! Waste of money is a best case scenario! Total scam! Extremely painful and absolutely worseless! Do not do it!
