Hello, we are Chang Dermatology, your beauty partner committed to protecting youthful and healthy skin.

When you look in the mirror, there are times when your facial line seems less defined than before, or your skin feels less elastic. In those moments, simple care alone may feel insufficient.

At times like this, it can be important to check not only the skin surface but also the deeper layers.

Today, let’s take a look at Ulthera Prime, which is performed while examining the structure beneath the skin.

What principle does Ulthera Prime work on?

Ulthera Prime is performed using high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to deliver energy into the deeper layers of the skin.

In particular, its feature is that it can deliver energy to the SMAS layer without damaging the skin surface.

During this process, thermal coagulation points (TCPs) are formed, creating an environment in which collagen regeneration can follow.

At Gangnam Ulthera Prime, based on this principle, energy delivery is adjusted according to skin depth.

Why is real-time ultrasound confirmation an important factor?

Ulthera Prime is performed based on a SEE-PLAN-TREAT structure.

First, skin thickness and structure are checked through real-time ultrasound images, and a treatment plan is then established accordingly.

After that, energy is delivered according to each individual’s condition.

This process helps reduce unnecessary stimulation while allowing focus on the layers that need it.

At Gangnam Ulthera Prime, this process is used to continue treatment in a more detailed direction.

How far can the treatment area be considered?

Ulthera Prime is a treatment that can be applied across the face.

It can be applied not only to areas where sagging is felt, such as the jawline, cheeks, and eye area, but also to areas where skin texture or pores are a concern.

In addition, it is important to adjust the treatment range according to each person’s skin condition so that it can proceed in a natural flow.

At Gangnam Ulthera Prime, we take these various areas into consideration together and proceed in a way that maintains balance.

What changes may appear over time?

Ulthera Prime often allows daily life right after the procedure, and then changes can continue to develop over time.

In the beginning, the skin may feel more refined, and after about one month, collagen production begins.

Over the following 2 to 3 months, skin elasticity and contours may gradually become more defined, and the results may be maintained for a certain period.

Gangnam Ulthera Prime aims for natural results based on these step-by-step changes.

In what cases might Ulthera Prime be worth considering?

Ulthera Prime may be considered not simply when one area changes, but when the overall flow of the face feels different.

| ✓ When the facial line seems less defined than before ✓ When reduced skin elasticity makes the overall impression look saggy ✓ When changes appear simultaneously in multiple areas such as the eye area, cheeks, and jawline ✓ When you want to improve skin texture and pores at the same time ✓ When you want care based on a natural pattern of change |

At Gangnam Ulthera Prime, we look at these various concerns together and adjust the treatment range.

What is the treatment process like?

With Ulthera Prime, it is important not only to deliver energy, but also to first check the skin condition.

After confirming the skin depth and structure through real-time ultrasound, the treatment area is set according to each person’s condition.

After that, energy is delivered to the necessary areas, and the procedure continues with overall balance in mind.

At Gangnam Ulthera Prime, this process is used to reduce unnecessary stimulation while aiming for natural results.

What should be managed after the procedure?

After the procedure, it is important to minimize skin irritation.

It is advisable to avoid excessive friction and to be cautious for a certain period with environments that raise body temperature, such as alcohol consumption or saunas.

In addition, maintaining sun protection and moisturizing care together can help keep the skin recovery process stable.

At Gangnam Ulthera Prime, we also guide you on how to care for your skin so that you can naturally return to daily life after the procedure.

A treatment environment that puts patients first

With over 20 years of experience, our clinic uses a system of care by five board-certified dermatologists to carefully examine the skin concerns of every visitor.

Rather than simply recommending procedures, we continue to provide care that first considers the necessary direction after fully checking the current condition of the skin.

We strive to create a comfortable environment where consultations can take place without pressure, and we calmly explain things so that you can understand the skin change process together with us.

In addition, rather than excessive procedures, we focus on setting the direction of care around only what is truly necessary, making adjustments so that it does not become burdensome.

Gangnam Ulthera Prime helps you continue toward natural changes based on these standards.

How can you find the right direction for your skin condition?

Skin changes are often influenced by multiple factors rather than being determined by just one element.

Therefore, it is important to check step by step which approach is appropriate based on the current condition.

At Gangnam Ulthera Prime, we look at the skin structure and concerns together and provide help in a direction suited to each individual’s flow.

Starting by checking your current skin condition without pressure can also be one way to begin.
