Many of you may be concerned that your face looks more sagging than before whenever you look in the mirror, or that your facial contours have become less defined. The changes that appear as elasticity decreases are a natural part of aging, but you may still want to maintain more defined contours and firmer skin. Today, we will take a closer look at an approach that uses RF thermal energy to help restore firmness from within. It is performed noninvasively and has attracted attention as a solution that reduces discomfort through the application of a cooling system.

- Dongtan Oligio: A method of delivering thermal energy to deeper layers
This solution is designed to directly deliver RF thermal energy and electrical current to the dermal layer. Rather than stimulating the surface, it works by stimulating deeper areas and naturally promoting collagen formation. Since collagen is a key element that supports the skin’s texture, activating this component gradually helps restore overall firmness. You may be concerned about pain or burns during the heating process, but this method is designed to minimize discomfort by applying cooling and vibration modes together. For this reason, it can be considered a relatively comfortable option even for people with thicker epidermal layers or sensitive skin.
- Dongtan Oligio: When can you expect to notice changes?
Methods that use thermal energy tend to show results gradually over time rather than producing dramatic changes immediately. Usually, after about 3–4 weeks, you may begin to feel your skin becoming slightly firmer as new collagen forms. However, the speed at which changes appear can vary depending on your skin condition, age, and lifestyle, so it is best not to judge the results too hastily. Since the results appear gradually, combining this treatment with other solutions may also be an option. For example, when performed together with care that helps refine expression lines, such as skin botulinum toxin, each approach may complement a different area and allow you to expect a more balanced result.

- Dongtan Oligio: How often should you receive it?
The results of a single session are generally known to last for approximately three months. After that, many people repeat the treatment at intervals of three months, six months, or one year, depending on their individual condition. At first, it may be a good idea to plan several sessions at shorter intervals, then gradually extend the intervals once the skin’s texture has stabilized to some degree. However, individual differences are significant in this regard as well, so it is important to adjust the schedule flexibly according to your skin condition and daily routine. Rather than receiving treatment too frequently, establishing a consistent care routine may be more beneficial in the long term.
- Dongtan Oligio: Who is it suitable for?
This method may be suitable for people who feel that their facial firmness has decreased overall. It may be worth considering if you are particularly concerned about areas such as the forehead, glabella, nasolabial folds, or marionette lines below the mouth. It may also be helpful for people whose pores appear enlarged or whose skin feels rough. Another advantage is that even people with thicker epidermal layers or sensitive skin may receive it relatively comfortably thanks to the cooling system. If you would like to refine an increasingly indistinct facial contour or are concerned about fine lines that resemble creases, it may be worth looking into.

- Dongtan Oligio: Things to take care of afterward
Immediately after treatment, it is best to avoid stimulating or rubbing the treated area. Washing your face and applying makeup on the same day are possible, but you should avoid applying pressure or rubbing vigorously. It is recommended that you refrain from alcohol and smoking for about a week, and avoid hot environments such as saunas and public bathhouses whenever possible. Avoiding strenuous exercise during the same period may also support recovery. Most importantly, apply moisturizer and sunscreen thoroughly. Skin that has been exposed to heat can become dry and more sensitive to external stimuli, so strengthening its protective barrier can play an important role in helping speed recovery.
Firmness is restored gradually over time rather than all at once. The approach introduced today helps support collagen formation from within and encourages natural-looking changes, so with consistent care, you may expect firmer results over time. I hope this has been at least somewhat helpful to those who are currently considering their options.
