Has anyone had experience with having this done? From what I have read, the reviews on removing under eye bags are very good, but reviews on lower face neck tightening are very mixed. The results are supposedly permanent. Not sure of cost, but they say cheaper than a lower face lift. My neck is getting very saggy, no matter what product I use. So just curious if anyone has had personal experience with it. Thank you.

I haven't heard of this procedure--will have to research it tho. I have a great deal of under eye baggage --and was planning on surgery to remove them for my 70th b-day this year--but other things got in the way. Here near Seattle, surgery is under $5000 which I thought was not awful.

Wagirl, You should look up the before, and Afters on the under eye bags. It looks like the Agness RF works really well for those.

I had a 'laser lift' years ago but that was with lasers, not RF. Had my face, eyes and neck done over a period of about a year. Took years off of my appearance. I was almost 50 when I had that done. A lot going on in my life at that time and it took a toll on my appearance so I treated myself to make things look like the way I wanted and not years older than I actually was.

 

Most skin tightening procedures, like RF and laser, are best for mild to moderate laxity and with not a lot of deep wrinkles. Those procedures can have issues with fat loss and it's permanent. Repeated treatments using RF or laser can leave you needing dermal fillers over time. So it's wise not to have them done very often...every 7 or more years or so to minimize fat loss.

I had RF Microneedling done on my face a couple years ago and I think it really helped.  I haven't seen my sisters in a couple of years since the pandemic, and now when I see them (they live in another state), I notice how much tighter and less wrinkled my face is.  I also had laser treatment even longer ago, so I have had some procedures.  I maintain results with home lasers and NuFace, etc.

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

@SilleeMee --I don't have many wrinkles or lines around or near my eyes--just those dang bags!! Have had them all my life and they are the puffiest things to this day. I am 70 so this would be a one and done for me---I will certainly ask before I jump into anything.

@wagirl 

 

I know the possibility of having our under eye bags removed is a topic near and dear to us.  We've talked about it before.  That's why I jumped on this thread hoping this might be a new, easier and less expensive option lol.  

You don't know how often I'm thinking that I could've had the bags removed already if I didn't have to spend so much on this dang dental work!  I'm still hopeful I can slowly save up and get it.  I just pray the price doesn't shoot through the roof by then lol.😃❤️

@cheriere ----well--- in the grander scheme of things-- I have to say that your teeth are more important than eye bags!!! that's what my more practical voice says----until I look in the mirror and my "bagage" looks back at me and laughs!!!Woman Wink I was going to get mine done this year but my DS is getting married next month and my bagage will have to wait----am giving them my "baggage" $$ for a nice honeymoon instead. If my teeth don't fall out---that is!!!Woman LOL

What a wonderful honeymoon gift!❤️❤️❤️

Girl, I'll say a prayer for your dental health!  I wouldn't wish this on anyone!  I must admit, I've thought of what all I could've got done if I'd just went with dentures instead.❤️
