Venus freeze for post surgery skin tightening.

Hello everyone I hope y'all are having a good day,

I am undergoing Venus freeze to tighten my skin and help to get rid of the fat in my neck and arms. I am desperately trying to avoid the expense, pain and possible scars from plastic surgery.

I have had Venus freeze on my neck and it turned out rather well. I didn't want "turkey neck" and I couldn't afford plastic surgery.

Granted, the Venus freeze isn't cheap. It's $200.00 per treatment. The treatments take about an hour. I get five treatments for $1,000.00. They spread glycerin on your skin and use a machine with technology that combines both Multi Polar Radio Frequency (RF) along with Pulsed Magnetic Fields. These two types of energy work in synergy to penetrate multiple layers of skin, heating it from the inside. Why they call it a "freeze" I have no idea.

The reason I am posting this is because I have a friend that had another type of WLS and she had the Venus freeze on her neck and was not in a "losing" state of weight or a stable weight. She was gaining weight, then losing weight, then gaining weight.

She IS NOT as happy with her results as I am. Her results were not as good as mine were. The RN that runs the medical aesthetics practice that I go to had tried to warn her about the treatments being affected by weight gain and loss and gain---but she didn't listen.

What I'm saying is if you are considering getting the Venus freeze be aware you should be at least at a stable weight and better yet be LOSING weight when you get the treatments.

Blessings,

Kathleen
