I have had three Venus Freeze treatments on my chin/neck area and I haven’t noticed any change or results yet. Is this normal?

A patient asked 6 years ago
My main concern is my double chin and I chose these treatment due to good reviews and the fact that it is not invasive and requires no down time. I haven’t seen any difference after three treatments and I’m wondering if that is normal, or if this treatment may not work for me?

Results after Venus Freeze

  Hi and thank you for your question! Venus Freeze is an excellent noninvasive FDA-cleared energy-based treatment that combines radiofrequency and magnetic pulsing to stimulate connective tissue to make more collagen and new blood vessels, etc to rejuvenate and tighten the skin (e.g. in face and neck) and it can also be used for body sculpting in other areas. We generally recommend 6-8 sessions spaced a few days apart to start, and although some patients might notice results after just a few treatments, 3 sessions might be too few. Additionally, since the treatment works gradually by stimulating your own body's rejuvenating power, we need to allow time and typically several weeks are needed for the results to reach optimal level. Lastly, as the changes occur and emerge slowly and gradually, it is easy to overlook and miss them and hence, taking before and after pictures to be able to objectively track and compare the results is highly recommended. I hope it helps and good luck!
