Non-surgical techniques are so appealing in concept, but results continue to disappoint patients. Patient surveys posted on Realself.com have revealed unfavourable results for Thermage, Mesotherapy/Liposdissolve, and especially Velasmooth. Surgical procedures that are often performed by doctors with minimal training (e.g. Lifestyle lift, and liposuction), also get predictably low ratings. If it seems too good to be true……….

Thank you for telling it like it is.
I would like to go on a rant about how many times I was sucked in by falsified performance data by laser, light source, dermal heating and radiofrequency device manufacturers but I will summarize by stating that at least now there are educated people like Dr. Kreidstein who are cutting through all of the bull.

I have double chin which I would like fixed. The rest of my face, I think would be fine once that is done.What would be the procedure ?

Double-chin can respond very well to liposuction, but in cases where there is poor elasticity to the skin we often recommend an additional procedure. Necklift, or a procedure with suspension sutures are possible options.
