Hello.
I’m Lee Won-shin, a dermatologist with 22 years of experience.
"I’m bothered by my double chin, but liposuction feels like too much."
"I want a lifting treatment, but I’m worried about the pain."
I hear concerns like these very often in the clinic.
Especially as people age and skin elasticity declines, even those with a slim build can develop a double chin as volume shifts to the lower face.
A double chin disrupts the facial line and can make the face look dull, so it’s only natural that people become increasingly concerned about it.
Today, I’d like to talk about PTING (Fitting) lifting, a new concept in lifting that can help address these concerns.

- What is PTING lifting?
PTING (Fitting) lifting is a new type of lifting device that uses ultra-high frequency (UHF) energy, rather than the conventional radiofrequency (RF) or ultrasound (HIFU) methods.
This is a non-invasive lifting treatment using ultra-high frequency energy, and it can lift sagging skin and improve elasticity without making an incision or inserting threads.
PTING uses two handpiece sizes (2.5 mm and 7 mm), allowing energy to be delivered to the desired depth for customized lifting based on the treatment area.

- How is it different from existing lifting treatments?
With conventional radiofrequency lifting, about 70% of the energy is lost as it passes through the skin layers.
As a result, the amount of energy that actually reaches the deep layers of the skin is inevitably limited.
By contrast, PTING’s ultra-high frequency energy experiences almost no loss as it passes through the skin, so the energy retention rate at the deeper layers is high.
Thanks to this, heat can be delivered more intensively to the dermis and subcutaneous fat layers, and more effective lifting results can be expected.
In addition, the handpiece is equipped with a water-cooling system that protects the skin surface during treatment and greatly reduces pain.
This makes it a treatment that even people who hesitated because of the pain of existing lifting procedures can receive comfortably.

- The effects of PTING lifting
PTING lifting can provide two major effects at the same time.
First, it improves skin elasticity through collagen regeneration.
When ultra-high frequency energy is delivered to the dermis, fibroblasts become activated and collagen production is stimulated.
This tightens loosened skin, producing lifting and tightening effects.
Second, it improves facial contours through fat cell breakdown.
PTING also delivers energy to the subcutaneous fat layer, inducing the breakdown of fat cells.
This makes it effective for people concerned about localized fat, such as a double chin or jowls.
In particular, PTING shows excellent results in the lower face, including the jawline, double chin, and jowls.
That is also why many people say, "My face line came back without it looking like I had anything done."

- Who is it recommended for?
PTING lifting is especially recommended for the following people.
People who are concerned about a double chin but feel liposuction is too much,
people whose jawline has blurred and makes the face look larger,
people worried about jowls or sagging cheeks,
people who want to address both reduced skin elasticity and fat concerns at the same time,
people who hesitated because of the pain of existing lifting treatments,
and people who need a quick return to daily life after treatment.
However, for areas where the skin is thin or sensitive, such as the forehead, neck, around the eyes, or scalp, treatment may be limited for safety reasons.
The treatment effect gradually improves as collagen regeneration progresses, and regular treatments can further maximize the results.
Because skin thickness and fat distribution vary from person to person, it is important to customize the handpiece size and energy level.

In closing,
PTING lifting is a treatment that uses a new form of energy called ultra-high frequency to complement the limitations of existing lifting procedures.
It raises effectiveness through high energy retention and reduces pain with a cooling system.
Most importantly, because it can be expected to provide both lifting and fat reduction at the same time, it is a highly satisfying treatment for people concerned about a double chin or jawline definition.
If you want to regain a more defined jawline, PTING lifting may be worth considering.
Thank you for reading this long post.
