3 painful treatments and $4000 later - results are no better than a chemical peel.

ORIGINAL POST

Don’t Waste Your Money

$4,250
Consulted Dr Saxon via zoom-told her I wanted to tighten and lift my face around eyes especially but would like to try to avoid surgery if there is something that could give good results without. She said Morpheus 8 can lift and tighten skin. 3 painful treatments and $4000 later and results are no better than a chemical peel. Feel duped for sure. Also had exiles 360 done on arms to tighten sagging skin near elbows and armpits. Paid $1750 for 4 treatments and absolutely nothing changed! She offered 1 more session for free but that didn’t do anything either. Very disappointed that I was made to believe these were effective treatments. During my consultation after my Morpheus treatments she knew I didn’t get the results I hoped for and told me I needed lower blepheroplasty with fat transfer for another $10000. Didn’t offer any refund for the Morpheus. I really liked her when I consulted with her-very down to earth and natural looking herself so I put my trust in her. Now I’m out $6000+ and not much to show for it.

I think your face looks tighter and fuller your wrinkles are less prominent. I think you look better
Thanks-I should’ve posted a smiling pic as well-that’s where you can see it looks pretty much the same. Definitely not $4200 difference that’s for sure.
Would you be able to post anymore pics? I have to say I also think that you are showing results in your second picture, even your nasolabial folds have softened quite a bit
Thanks for your feedback! I actually think my face became more deflated around my cheeks. I definitely don’t see $4200 improvement which is what is so upsetting. My husband and I don’t make a lot of money at our jobs so that was a big amount for us. It’s a big disappointment.
Do you feel it became deflated regarding submental fat? Or the skin became thinner? I totally understand you, this is the problem with these treatments, they can be incredibly expensive with results that are pretty mild. I don’t make huge amounts and I’m booked in for Morpheus8 next month, feeling very hesitant about it
I had to look up submental fat lol! That is fat under the chin but I was referring to fat in my cheeks. I used to have fuller cheeks and now they appear less pronounced. I feel like the procedure aged me. My advice is to get several consultations (which I didn’t do. In retrospect, I should’ve chosen to spend that money on a blepharoplasty or mini facelift. It’s pretty painful as well (and I even got nerve blocks which not everyone does). Good luck with your decision!
The same thing happened to me after one treatment. My youthful facial fat and fillers dissolved. Aged me almost instantly after swelling from treatment subsided.
