What Should You Expect After the Treatment? Are There Any Notable Side Effects?
The number of treatment sessions varies from one person to another, depending on the result the patient aims for and the degree of skin sagging present. Generally speaking, the results are noticeable after a single treatment, although the results tend to be more pronounced over a period of several months. The result is firmer, tighter skin with a more youthful complexion!
There are some side effects, which are temporary and usually go away within a couple of hours of the treatment, the most common of which is skin redness. Other side effects include tenderness to touch, a tingling sensation and swelling that occurs around the treated area. Some small bruising may also occur, but all of these symptoms typically disappear after a few hours, thus allowing patients to resume their normal activities quickly.

As mentioned above, the most commonly targeted areas are the neck tissue, the eyebrows and the under-chin area.
