Is there a significant difference in effectiveness between Thermage 600 shots and 900 shots? I am curious about the criteria for selecting the number of shots.

I am consulting about getting Thermage for the first time, but I am having trouble deciding because the number of shots recommended varies from clinic to clinic. Some places say 600 shots are sufficient, while others recommend 900, so I am wondering what criteria I should use to make a choice.

For those who have actually received Thermage, how many shots did you get? I am curious whether you felt sufficient effects on skin elasticity, facial contouring, and fine wrinkle improvement with just 600 shots, or if you felt a definite difference after receiving 900 shots.

I would also like to know if a higher number of shots always guarantees better results, or if it is more important to select the appropriate number based on face size, degree of skin sagging, age, and skin condition. For first-time patients, I would also like to hear personal experiences regarding how many shots provided the highest level of satisfaction.
