After Two Weeks, Noticeable Difference - Followed by No Difference Dubai, AE

I was extremely skeptical about Thermage CPT, assumed I would not get any visible result and was going to settle for a result of buying myself another year of not aging as much. In part, I believed this would be the outcome because I was doing it in Dubai where the doctor was not going to use the 900 pulses on my face but instead only used 425 and 225 on my eyes. (I had been on website, which advised to make sure that 900 pulses were used in order to see any results.)

To my amazement, within a week, my skin looked noticeably better. Tighter. Color was better. Radiant. Some minor wrinkles on my forehead and around my cheeks disappeared. Even my boyfriend noticed and said I looked younger. It's now 2 weeks and I see continued improvement. Before, I looked like a woman in her 40s. Now, I believe I could pass for late 30s.

I am curious to see what improvements, if any, will occur by the 6 month mark.
Regardless, I will do this again and will add this to my ritual. But next time, I will try for the 900 pulses.

I should add that the doctor believes that one reason I was likely to have a good outcome is because I am on hormone replacement therapy, which she said meant that the collagen level in my skin would be much higher than is normal for a woman my age, which is 53

On a downside, I have noticed no change in my eyes except the lack of fine lines at the sides.. Will see if 6 months makes a difference.

PS Don't believe anyone who says it doesn't hurt. It was not fun at all. The pulses start off warm and as the time passes, it gets worse and worse. I couldn't WAIT for it to be over. Also, if you do the eyes, make sure you have well lubricated eyes. Start putting thick lubricating eyedrops in your eyes the day before the procedure. It may help when the time comes to take out the eye shields that the doctor places in your eyes to shield the eyeball while she does the lids.

But in woman over, 50 not totally dependent on HRT, genetics are important.

Not worth it

Reluctantly, I have to change my review to not worth it. Whatever initial results I saw are no longer there. It is unfortunate.
