Titan Skin Tightening - Cosmetic / Plastic Surgery Message Board

Hi, yesterday, 07-26-2006, I had a complete Titan Skin Tightening Treatment (face, forehead and neck). It certainly stung but was not intolerable. My doctor does 4 treatments at four week intervals. Has anyone else had this proceedure? I was trying to get rid of nasolabial folds and the beginnings of a turkey waddle. I am 48 years old. So far, 24 hours later, no visiable results. Anyone else have experience with this? Thanks.

Now it is the 4th day since my treatment. Nothing noticeable thus far. No firming or lifting. However, no side effects either. I will keep you posted.

I haven't heard of that procedure, but I had a friend say that the Thermage skin tightening system works real well.

Yes, I have heard of Thermage. I researched it thoroughly and all though I have heard of many good results I also discovered many horror stories concerning Thermage. Enough to make me very leary. Burns, loss of facial fat and facial dimpling. The worst I could find on the Cutera Titan proceedure was that it generally takes longer for the results to show up and that it doesn't work for every person. So I figured the worst that could happen with Titan was I would be out some money. With Thermage the risk of disfigurement seemed to great. Thus my choice.

^ yeah, it's best to always do that kind of research, I agree. I think the Thermage is great in the right hands.. I've heard those horror stories as well. Maybe down the line there will more more highly qualified people to do it (the Thermage). Good luck with your treatments!
