Pros

  • Both are well-established, original technologies with extensive clinical experience and long-term data behind them. When I consider results, longevity, and safety together, they are still two of the treatments I recommend most often.
  • I just got thermage FLX (eye area only) with no numbing cream and only numbing eye drops. The pain was literally a zero. It actually felt very nice and relaxing!
  • Doing Thermage FLX and Re2O together is probably the most effective combo for anti aging especially after 2 months
  • it was much more tolerable than I expected, likely due to the IV drip too. ... Most of the treatment hovered around a 4/10. ... Before leaving, the front desk gave me: my authentic Thermage FLX treatment tip, an official Thermage treatme...
  • she did thermage flx instead which stays in the dermis layer and paired it with rejuran beforehand to get my skin barrier ready for the heat. way better result and nothing looked sunken or overdone.

Cons

  • Thermage FLX: Uses a single 6.78MHz frequency (the gold standard for RF). ... Infamously spicy. In Korea, clinics regularly put patients under IV sedation just to get through a 600-shot session. ... Once a doctor opens a tip, it has a st...
  • Thermage FLX is a waste of money at 300 shots because the radiofrequency energy needs time to build up heat for collagen remodeling, so always ask for 600 shots with the Total Tip 4.0 at the beginning of the year
  • She said most would describe the pain level at 7/10 which scared me but after the Tylenol I’d say it was mostly around a 4, 4.5 (with the occasional bouts of 6-7 where there was little to no numbing cream) so it was very tolerable.

it was much more tolerable than I expected, likely due to the IV drip too. ... Most of the treatment hovered around a 4/10. ... Before leaving, the front desk gave me: my authentic Thermage FLX treatment tip, an official Thermage treatment certificate. This is standard practice for authorized Thermage providers and serves as proof that genuine Thermage equipment and consumables were used.

it was much more tolerable than I expected, likely due to the IV drip too. ... Most of the treatment hovered around a 4/10. Sensation: It felt more like an intense freezing or burn sensation after each pulse so pain went up to about a 6/10 for 20% of the procedure.

Thermage FLX: Uses a single 6.78MHz frequency (the gold standard for RF). ... Infamously spicy. In Korea, clinics regularly put patients under IV sedation just to get through a 600-shot session. ... Once a doctor opens a tip, it has a strict 3-to-4-hour digital expiration lock. You have to pay for the whole tip even if you only needed 100 shots.

she recommended thermage flx instead since it targets the dermis without affecting the fat layer and paired it with rejuran to rebuild my skin quality first before doing anything aggressive.

The inmode lifting and thermage alone snatched my jawline though, I’m about 2 weeks out and am super impressed with results after just one treatment.
