Infrared Laser Therapy for Loose Skin



Recommended Posts

Has anyone else tried this? I have a series of six appointments in July for Thermojet Infrared therapy to aid weight loss and to tighten loose skin. I plan to document with photos, but would like some idea of how it's worked for others in the past.

By the last session, I will have been sleeved four months (3 months today, -50 pounds, down from a 22/24 to a 14/16) and am hoping to lose another size by the end. I eat 500-700ish calories a day and exercise in a HIIT class 3-4 days per week. The exercise is a recent addition, so I'm not sure how much will be from that and how much will be from the Thermojet.

Any insight is much appreciated!

Hi Joli,

My first thought was to ask if you might be interested in some lots I have for sale in North Carolina.

Then I got honest about my own concerns about being creepy looking with a lot of loose skin. I live in shorts and I'm super active even though I'm in a wheelchair. I was lying in bed last night wondering how painful a body lift was going to be after I lose all of this weight.

So in all fairness, I'm going to be watching this post to see if you're a pioneer bravely blazing a new way. Or it I'm glad you did it and told me not to try it.

Good luck and keep us posted!

Anne

Anne, that is hilarious! Is it oceanfront? If so, I'm so interested... ;)

Evolving, that's what I used to purchase the package. I paid $100 for six sessions. I'm also a contributor to Angie's List, so for the business's sake, I hope it's not false advertising!

I will post progress with photos once I'm done, and keep a journal of what happens at each session. I don't know how authentic it will be since I've had surgery, but it's better than what I found online anyway. Hopefully I didn't waste money, but my summer mentality is to be adventurous!

Six sessions, even tried laying in different positions, nothing. I didn't even break a sweat and no inches or pounds lost after either. My weight loss actually stalled during that time.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
