Hello. It is a vibrant Tuesday.
Today, I would like to talk about Thermage, which many people are curious about.
There is a question I receive more often than expected during consultations.
"How many shots of Thermage are best?"
"Is there a big difference between 600 shots and 900 shots?"
"Is using more shots always better?"
In fact, people who are learning about Thermage for the first time often focus on the number of shots before considering the device itself.
However, when it comes to lifting, a higher number does not automatically lead to better results.
Today, for those considering Ahyeon Station Thermage, we will look at the number of shots used with Thermage FLX and Eye Thermage.

What is Thermage FLX?
Thermage FLX is a leading lifting device that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy.
It is known to work by delivering thermal energy to a specific depth within the skin to promote collagen regeneration, and it is used when both skin elasticity and texture improvement are being considered.
In particular, as people age, they may become interested in this treatment if they feel that
-
their skin generally feels looser,
-
their jawline is not as defined as it used to be,
-
their pores look enlarged, or
-
their skin texture has become rougher.
Recently, many people have continued to visit us hoping for natural-looking improvements in elasticity through Ahyeon Station Thermage.

What is the difference between 300, 600, and 900 shots?
Thermage FLX offers the following options based on the Total Tip used for the entire face:
-
300 shots
-
600 shots
-
900 shots
Many people think,
"Isn't 900 shots the best option?"
But in practice, the approach should be a little different.
The number of shots is not simply a matter of more or fewer shots; it can vary depending on the condition of the skin, the treatment area, and the areas requiring improvement.
For example,
-
when relatively early loss of elasticity is the main concern,
-
when the entire face requires treatment, or
-
when a specific area requires focused treatment,
The appropriate approach may be different in each case.
Therefore, rather than focusing on how many shots are used, it is important to check whether an appropriate plan has been established for the current condition of the skin.

The use of energy is more important than the number of shots
Even with the same 600 shots, the results may differ.
This is because the approach varies depending on which areas are targeted.
For example,
-
when the jawline is the main concern,
-
when sagging cheeks are the main concern,
-
when elasticity around the nasolabial folds is the main concern, or
-
when improvement in the texture of the entire face is desired,
the treatment area and plan may differ.
Therefore, when researching Ahyeon Station Thermage, it is better not only to compare the number of shots but also to check whether the approach is suitable for your current skin condition and concerns.

Eye Thermage is available specifically for concerns around the eyes
While elasticity throughout the face is important, many people also feel that signs of aging begin around the eyes.
In fact, the area around the eyes has particularly thin skin and undergoes a great deal of movement.
As a result,
-
fine lines under the eyes,
-
reduced elasticity around the eyes,
-
wrinkles that deepen when smiling, and
-
concerns about the skin around the eyes
are often among the first issues to appear.
Eye Thermage is used in these cases.
How is Eye Thermage different?
Eye Thermage is performed using an Eye Tip designed specifically for the area around the eyes.
Thermage FLX Total Tip
-
Treatment area: Entire face
-
Treatment effects: Reduction of facial wrinkles, collagen regeneration
-
Number of shots: 300 shots / 600 shots / 900 shots
Eye Thermage
-
Treatment area: Area around the eyes
-
Treatment effects: Reduction of wrinkles around the eyes, collagen regeneration around the eyes
-
Number of shots: 225 shots / 450 shots
Because the skin around the eyes has different characteristics from the rest of the face, a more delicate approach is often required.
During consultations for Ahyeon Station Thermage, many people also discuss concerns around the eyes along with overall facial elasticity, and Eye Thermage may be considered depending on the condition of the skin.

If you are considering Thermage
Rather than deciding based solely on the number of shots, it is important to consider
✔ the extent of your current loss of elasticity,
✔ whether your main concern is the entire face or the area around the eyes,
✔ whether you also want to improve skin texture and pores, and
✔ whether you have had lifting treatments before.
The appropriate plan may vary depending on each individual's skin condition and concerns, even when the same device is used.

Things to know before Ahyeon Station Thermage
The goal of lifting is not simply to use a large number of shots.
Rather, it is important to accurately assess the current condition of the skin and appropriately apply the treatment to the areas that need it.
Therefore, if you are considering Ahyeon Station Thermage, it is better to check which approach is suitable for your skin rather than focusing on the numbers 300, 600, and 900 shots themselves.
In addition, an approach that considers the characteristics of each area—such as Thermage FLX for the entire face and Eye Thermage for the area around the eyes—may also affect satisfaction with the treatment.
Ultimately, what matters is not competing over the number of shots but establishing a lifting plan suited to the current condition of your skin.
