I got it a total of 3 times at one-month intervals. It was the biggest clinic among all the hospitals I had been to so far, but it was just as much like a factory and moved quickly.
When I first went, I had a light estimate with the consultation manager in the consultation room, and there were no extra charges or sales pressure. They said it would be good to do salivary gland Botox together while getting InMode, so I got them together the first time.
There was a bit of a wait, but the doctor was kind and did it well, so without feeling nervous, I think it took about 13-14 minutes.
After the first procedure, the effect came out really dramatically, so I ended up doing InMode through the third session.
When I went the second time, I had another consultation, but there did not seem to be anything particular to add, so I only proceeded with InMode. They raised the intensity a bit more than the first time, so it hurt like crazy.. There was also a bit of scarring, but it was not as dark as the first time and disappeared quickly. The effect was not that great either... It was not dramatic like the first time.
But when I went the third time, or maybe around then, it was so chaotic with so many people that it felt like a market. They took photos, and I just talked at the counter before going straight into the procedure.
And during the procedure, there was always someone standing behind me, maybe a nursing assistant, but that day, it was just the doctor and me alone in the procedure room lololol.
Instead, when the doctor came in and looked at the photos, he said it seemed like there had been no change, and asked things like whether there had been any change in weight before starting the procedure.
Maybe because he said there was no change, I think he really set the intensity to the highest. I almost held on and cried while getting it. It was truly so hot that I tasted hell.
The third session left the least scarring, disappeared quickly, and seemed to have the most minimal effect. Still, compared to before, I have maintained a sharper look up to now.
I have an average body type, but I was worried because I had a lot of fat on my face, so I am considering losing more weight and then trying Shurink or another procedure.
It is a factory-style clinic, but the price is low and the doctor is kind, so I think it is okay to go casually for procedures where provider technique does not matter much.
