Small office - small staff. Not very welcoming and NO OTHER PATIENTS. The doctor herself was very personable and had assured me that the procedure was safe as she had it done with no issues.

I was considering thermage. Do you see any progress? They say it takes up to 6 months. Is there an alternative for the neck? What is the website address of the warnings that you found?
I am still getting scars and wrinkled skin. It is only getting worse with time, not better. Please look at alternatives! This just isn't worth it!
Thank you I am glad, you posted something. I hope things get better for you.
As well did you use thermage cpt? The latest technology?
Yes, I did. Please do NOT even begin to consider it!
Wow. Unreal
Has your new surgeon started repair work yet to try to fix the Thermage damage? If yes, what is his plan of action? Have you tried Dermapen? Needling works really well on lip lines. I'm sorry this happened to you. These devices should be taken off the market imo.
I reported my experience re no effect on FDA website. There were other reports there--one w/pics showing fat loss in face using Thermage--lines over women's face.

This Just Keeps Getting Better and Better...

Now not only do I have scars on the jawline, but I now have wrinkles around my mouth!!! I've never had those before. Also look at the scars on the chin.
Is this ever going to STOP!?!? I'm only one month out - you mean this will go on and on for 5 more months??

I had thermage three months ago and have scarring and progressive fat loss in my face. How are you doing now ? I am seeing more damage everyday - we had the treatment at about the same time I had my eyes done as well and am terrified I'll go blind. I feel terrible for us . I am eating better than I have ever eaten in my life - it can't hurt - maybe derma rolling will help these scars in the interim until we can get something done. My heart goes out to you.
No, I am at two years now and continue to get worse. I just looked at my "Before" pictures and my last night pictures, and my skin has aged 20 years. I can't believe this much change in two years. I did try one session of the Rejuvapen, but I didn't do anymore. We are burn victims so what tightening we did get is from scar tissue, when I did Rejuvapen, it was very aggressive and I feel like it broke up some scar tissue, but what I have left is still scarred uneven texture, but now drooping, as if you have tenderized a piece of meat. I am looking at the Roden and Fields derma roller because it is not as aggressive (doesn't go as deep) and hope that it might re-texture the surface. I have thought about faxel laser, but I am terrified. I can't even stand to look in the mirror anymore, and I refuse pictures now. My face texture looks exactly like your pictures. Let's keep in touch in case we find something that works.
I am 6 weeks out and have similar side effects. How are you doing now? Have you consulted with plastic surgeons? Thx
The plastic surgeon at the office where I had it done. Suggested that another treatment of Thermage might be good, and that perhaps the first one was not powerful enough. I told him he was out of his mind. Why would I want to further damage my skin with the machine that just ruined it.
I am in exactly the same position. 4 months post. Devastated and scared!
Wow!!! sorry to hear about the horrible results but I thank you soooo much for sharing...I was considering this procedure but after reading all the bad reviews I'm OUT!!!! Hope it gets better for you.

I just posted my before and 2-year progression pictures if you want to see what you have to look forward to.
I can't say I "like" this; I just wanted to let you know that you are helping other people. Love and peace.
