Thermage

I had my abdomen done at LaserAway, because I really need a tummy tuck but don't have enough money saved up and can't afford the recovery time (I'm a single mom and work full time). I've been separated a few years and am finally ready to get back into the dating pool, but want to feel better about my mom bod, because things did not exactly snap back after baby #2 and I'm now 45. Two years of pilates sadly didn't fix the area, so here we are.
The nurse who treated me was very knowledgeable and had a good bedside manner. Most of the pulses were done at 2.5 (the range is 0.5-3.0) and I didn't experience any pain, but--as was suggested--I did take a Vicodin before the treatment so it may have helped? I had no adverse reactions to the treatment and even went out with a friend for my first lunch after a six month quarantine.
It's been barely 2.5 weeks and I can already see and feel a difference. My stomach skin feel stretched tauter and the wrinkly skin below my belly button seems smoother. I had a c-section it's baby #1 (who was large and I am small), so I'm really hoping that he awful c-section 'ledge' goes away in time. I'll post again in a few months, apparently it can take up to six months for full results.
