experience a brief deep heating sensation as the

RF energy is delivered to your skin and underlying

after heating to protect your skin and make the

treatment m o re comfortable Additionally your

physician may also prescribe relaxants

appear gradually over 2 to 6 months after a single

treatment s ession However many patients have
