Thermage Defective Device Attorney
Thermage was once thought to be the perfect solution for anyone who wanted the benefits of a facelift without the pain and expense of a traditional facelift. Affordable and convenient, many people sought this treatment without giving any thought to the potential side effects of what is essentially microwaving the skin. The Thermage treatment uses tightly focused radio waves to heat the layer of tissue just beneath the skin in order to stimulate collagen production that can tighten and tone the skin as it heals.
Unfortunately, Thermage Inc. significantly downplays the potential side effects of this allegedly safe procedure. Many people who underwent Thermage discovered to their great dismay that the procedure caused serious skin divots and dimples in the skin that require additional skin treatments to remedy. Furthermore, some patients need expensive and sometimes painful follow-up treatments in order to repair significant tissue damage.
Because Thermage is a relatively new procedure, few people are well advised about the risks of this procedure. Unfortunately, few doctors truly understand the potential complications of the technique, nor will they go out of their way to dissuade their patients from getting it. Thermage will continue to gain in popularity in the years to come, and there will likely be more occasions of severe skin trauma in the future.
If you or someone you know was injured due to Thermage, you may be able to seek financial compensation for your condition. You need to act quickly, because statutes of limitation restrict the amount of time you have to press your case. Contact a dedicated and experienced defective medical device attorney today.
