Thermage FLX vs Ultherapy Prime

"I want a lifting treatment,

but between Thermage and Ultherapy Prime,

which one is better?"

Because both Thermage and Ultherapy are very well-known procedures, patients often compare the two.

Since they are expensive treatments, many of you may also worry about the price.

And now that Thermage FLX, the upgraded version of Thermage, and Ultherapy Prime, the upgraded version of Ultherapy, have both been introduced, the decision becomes even more difficult.

Both procedures aim to improve skin elasticity and wrinkles, but their mechanisms of action and suitable skin types are different.

Today, I’ll compare the differences between the two procedures, including their effects and pain levels, and explain which cases each one is better suited for.

Jamsil Thermage Price Thermage principles, effects, and pain

Thermage is a procedure that delivers radiofrequency (RF) energy deep into the dermis, causing collagen to contract and stimulating new collagen production.

As time passes, this leads to gradual skin tightening and wrinkle improvement.

It is especially chosen when you want to maintain volume while improving fine lines and skin texture.

Because it is mainly performed on the skin surface layer, recovery is quick, and it is suitable for people with thin or dry skin.

Rather than immediately after the procedure, you can expect gradual improvements in skin texture as collagen remodels over 2 to 3 months.

Thermage FLX is the fourth-generation version of Thermage. It uses a larger tip, allowing a wider area to be treated at once.

Thanks to this, the treatment time has been reduced to about 30 minutes, roughly half as long, and pain has also been eased.

In addition, by using AccuREP technology, the energy can be finely adjusted according to the skin condition, making the procedure more precise and safer.

The price can vary depending on the number of shots, and it usually ranges from the 800,000 KRW range to the 4,000,000 KRW range.

There are also event packages combined with other procedures, so if you compare carefully, you may be able to make a better choice. ^^

Jamsil Thermage Price Ultherapy Prime principles, effects, and pain

Ultherapy Prime is a lifting treatment that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to deliver energy deep into the SMAS layer.

The ultrasound is concentrated at a single point, creating thermal coagulation points of 60 to 70 degrees Celsius, and this process leads to collagen regeneration and tissue remodeling.

The upgraded Ultherapy Prime has a larger and clearer screen, making it possible to visualize depths up to 8 mm.

Because of this, more precise treatment is possible, treatment time is shortened, and pain is reduced.

It is especially effective for lifting areas such as a sagging jawline, double chin, and cheeks, and the lifting effect becomes more noticeable over time.

Ultherapy also varies in price depending on the number of shots, and it ranges from around 700,000 KRW to 2,000,000 KRW.

Prices can differ from clinic to clinic even for the same device, so it is worth comparing carefully. ^^

Jamsil Thermage Price Which choice should you make?

If your skin is thin, you have many fine wrinkles, and you want to maintain volume, Thermage is more suitable.

On the other hand, if you have more facial fat or need contour improvement because sagging in the jawline or cheek area is severe, Ultherapy Prime is more effective.

Because the advantages are different, some people choose to combine them.

Since skin texture and wrinkles are treated with Thermage, while lifting and contouring are treated with Ultherapy Prime, the two can create a synergistic effect when used together. ^^

In fact, combining the two procedures can stimulate both the skin surface and deeper layers at the same time, offering a combined effect that addresses fine lines and contour lifting together.

Now you understand why you should not choose based only on the Jamsil Thermage price.

In particular, Thermage and Ultherapy Prime are both lifting treatments, but their target layers and effects are different.

Thermage works mainly on the dermis, while Ultherapy Prime works mainly on the SMAS layer.

The choice depends on your skin type, volume, and the area of concern, and sometimes combining the two procedures may be the best option.

I would like to emphasize that it is important to find the method that suits you through consultation with medical staff.

I hope this article was helpful for those who are deciding between Thermage and Ultherapy, and I’ll wrap up here.

Thank you. This was Unni from Jamsil.^^
