"Thermi Tight at 60 Years Old for Jowls and Under Chin Tightening." Vernon Hills, IL

Happy to do that. Thank you for your interest.

Sorry for all the typos.... I need 'edit' options/ buttons!

Your welcome.

I will do that,thank you for your interest.

At the time of this procedure my doctor decided to remove a small amount of fat from each jowl and under my chin with lipo. That is probably why I had four small holes instead of three.I am happy with that, as I don't have fabulous bone structure (my jaw naturally recedes),and everything stayed hidden. One slight puncture under each ear and one closer to the jowl,can't see any of them now. When I had my SMAS,my doctor did not do an incision under my chin,he said I did not need it.I like the decision both made.I had fillers after my SMAS,at a local med spa that closed down.When they did my fillers (marionette and nasal folds),the swelling and bruising was ridiculous and procedure very painful.In 2012 I found Ritacca Medspa. Dawn put filler in areas of my face that needed it. I still have not had to put anymore ,anywhere ,in my face since ,other than the tear trough.That was two months ago when they had a special on it.Other than that,I have had two ultherapy treatments from Sarah ,it did not melt any fat or filler on my face.It tightened my neck and gave my skin a really nice texture. Gravity and time marches on,it was time to be more aggressive,I don't want surgery again.I am a person that does not tolerate pain well.Even if it is a 1-3,the constant feel of being uncomfortable ,makes me miserable.My doctor was understanding and graciously wrote me a prescription for low dose hydrocodone after my thermi tight.My desire is not so much to look as young as I can,just to look as best I can,for my age,and tolerance. I reread your question,When Dawn did my fillers she used a cannula,no bruising no monster features from swelling or pain other than a few numbing shots.She used a combination of fillers for cheeks,marionette,nasal folds,temples,her discretion.I am fairly certain, juvederm and juvederm plus.All, are wonderful procedures that in the hands of a skilled nurse or physician,can really make a difference in everyday life.I am sure you will make the best decision for you BarbH,and you are very welcome.

Thanks so much for your thorough reply! So I guess your whole look is basically due to the thermitight, ultherapy, and fillers. That's important to me, is when I see pictures, is having an understanding of all procedures that went into achieving your look. Your neck and chin look great, you should be really pleased! I have limited funds and for me i need to carefully decide which are the best procedures that will help my issues, that will have the longest lasting results. Thank you again!

You are welcome. I just replace what I lose through the aging process . These procedures have never been performed the same year , and have taken place over a twenty year time span. My first filler was in my forties. Sometimes less is more. Now, at 60, I share that same concern. Thank you for your compliment. This is the first major procedure I have had since my SMAS lift in 2010.I don't know how old you are but I wish you well ,nothing lasts for years and years.They do have a payment plan at my Medspa to help with such issues. I hope to hear from you again, and wish the very best.
