 Has anyone had this done, or know anyone who's had this done?  If so, what were the results, price, etc?  

I've seen some advertisements for it and may think about looking into it, but wanted to reach out here first.

Thanks!

 When I asked my ps about it, he said it is not for folks who have had significant weight loss.

Temporary and about 400.00 for 4-6 months worth of benefit, if you are lucky.

 Jody honey, get a quote from Dr. Sauceda. Don't throw your money away on a temporary fix.

I've read so many negative things about it. I need face/neck work done so I was looking into this, too, but decided against it.

 Ok - thanks everyone!  I didn't know of anyone who's had it, and the only reviews (of course) I read were good.  

I don't need a lot of work, just a little "lift" of some saggy skin.  My face didn't take a big hit in the weight-loss department, but I'm not getting any younger.    If I go for a full face lift, I'll probably wait a few more years.

If you do a search here on OH you will see tons of posts about it.

The technique is generally regarded as a more temporary solution.  My problem is that too many patients give it negative reviews:

And that the company was fined for faking reviews in the past:
