Ulthera Prime and Fitting Lifting? Why Getting Them Together Is Beneficial <Ulthera Prime Fit>
Hello.
I am Choi Won-woo, a dermatologist with 23 years of experience.
If you are reading this post, you may have noticed that your facial line looks uneven compared with before, or that your skin feels saggy.
Skin aging is not simply a matter of reduced elasticity.
It is a complex phenomenon that occurs as the deep structures that maintain the shape of the face become loosened.
That is why, when considering a lifting procedure, it is often necessary to take a three-dimensional approach that encompasses both the skin surface and the inside, rather than focusing on just one layer.

One procedure alone cannot cover every layer because each device has different characteristics and can reach different depths.
So today, I would like to explain the principles and expected effects of “Ulthera Prime Fit,” which creates synergy by combining devices with different mechanisms.

The working principle of Ulthera and its lifting effects
If you have looked into lifting, the name Ulthera will probably be very familiar.
Ulthera is a procedure that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound, or HIFU energy, to target the SMAS layer located deep in the skin.

The SMAS layer connects the face’s muscles and skin and serves as a support structure that defines facial contours.
As time passes and this support structure loosens, the jawline collapses and the cheeks begin to sag downward.
Ulthera concentrates ultrasound energy on the SMAS layer like focusing light with a magnifying glass, creating thermal coagulation points.
It then contracts the tissue and helps firm up the loosened areas again.

However, while this method is effective for producing lifting results by delivering energy in a dot-like pattern,
it has limitations when it comes to filling in the empty spaces between those dots or finely improving small surface wrinkles and sagging texture.
- How Fitting Lifting complements skin adhesion and elasticity
To make up for those limitations of Ulthera and improve the overall result, Fitting Lifting is used together.
Fitting Lifting uses a method based on “microwave energy,” also called micro-wave energy.

While Ulthera targets the deep layer,
Fitting Lifting focuses on delivering heat energy broadly and evenly to the shallower fat layer and dermis.
As the strong thermal energy is delivered throughout the area, it reduces unnecessary fat and creates a tightening effect that draws loose areas in more firmly.
Just as clothes that fit your body well bring out a better silhouette,
it can be understood as a process that makes the skin above the framework adhere closely to the facial structure.
Through this, the skin texture can become smoother, the facial line more defined, and a more refined and tidy impression may be expected.
- Let me explain why it is good to do them together.


Fitting: Improvement of elasticity and adhesion centered on the fat layer and dermis
Ulthera: Structural lifting centered on the SMAS layer
The reason we developed Ulthera Prime Fit by combining Ulthera Prime and Fitting Lifting is clear.
Because aging does not occur in just one layer, we determined that the solution also needs to be approached from multiple angles.
First, Ulthera reinforces the support structure deep within the skin to shape the overall contour,
and then Fitting Lifting tightens the dermis and fat layer above it to firmly anchor the skin to the framework.

If Ulthera draws the big picture by placing dots, Fitting Lifting is like coloring in the spaces between those dots to complete the picture.
When energy with different depths and properties comes together like this,
it can produce synergy beyond simply adding two procedures together, allowing for lifting effects to be expected.
In particular, there is also the added advantage that the thermal energy from Fitting Lifting may help circulation and reduce swelling that can occur after an Ulthera procedure more quickly.
Of course, this combination is not necessary for everyone,
and it should be decided under a medical professional’s detailed diagnosis based on facial shape, skin thickness, and the degree of sagging.
In closing,

Even with the same device, lifting results can vary depending on how deeply the patient’s unique facial characteristics are understood and how the procedure is designed.
Rather than following trends, it is important to first consider what your skin currently needs and which combination will bring good results.
