Which Facial Lifting Method Is Right for Me?

“​​My facial contours don’t look the way they used to. What should I do?”

“​​I don’t have much cheek fat. Is it still okay to get lifting treatment?”

When you start looking into facial lifting,

have you ever found yourself wondering because there are more types than expected?

However, what matters is not which device is famous,

but first checking why your face has begun to look different.

Today, before choosing a specific device,

let’s take a look at some useful criteria to know^^

There is more than one reason the face may look saggy

As you age, if collagen and elastic fibers within the skin

decrease, the skin may feel less firm than before.

But it is not only a skin-related issue. The location and

amount of fat, facial volume, bone structure, and other factors also affect facial contours.

That is why, even with the same facial lifting treatment,

it is difficult to apply the same method to everyone.

Faces with fuller cheeks and thinner faces need to be assessed differently

If a double chin or full cheeks are a concern,

it is necessary to examine the fat layer as well.

On the other hand, if there is little facial fat and insufficient volume,

applying strong energy may produce results different from what you want.

A greater number of energy shots is not necessarily better;

what matters is delivering energy in a way suited to your skin!

If skin texture is also a concern, the approach is different

Some people experience not only changes in facial contours,

but also fine lines, enlarged pores, and changes in skin texture.

In such cases, radiofrequency (RF) treatments that deliver thermal energy

to the dermal layer may be considered.

Thermage and Density are representative options,

and they may help manage firmness and skin texture

by promoting collagen remodeling.

If the jawline and sagging are concerns, depth should also be considered

If a less defined jawline or downward sagging of the cheeks

is a concern, deeper layers may also be considered.

HIFU methods such as Ultherapy Prime work by delivering focused

ultrasound energy to a specific depth beneath the skin.

However, some people have little facial fat and volume,

so it is important to plan the depth, treatment areas, and number of shots according to the individual^^

Not everyone with a fuller face needs the same treatment

If a double chin or facial fat is also a concern,

methods that take the fat layer into account using microwave energy,

such as ONDA, may be considered.

However, the reason a face looks larger is not necessarily

because of fat.

Other factors, such as bone structure, muscles, or skin sagging,

may be involved, so before deciding on facial lifting,

it is important to examine what is making the facial contours look different.

That is why a design suited to each person’s skin is important!

Pain and schedule can also be selection criteria

When considering these treatments, important factors also include

your daily routine, upcoming important events, and whether there may be pain.

If an important photo shoot, wedding, meeting, or other event

is approaching, you should also consider when skin reactions or changes may appear after treatment.

There are also options such as AllTight and Titanium,

which people may consider when they prefer a relatively short treatment time

and want to reduce the impact on their daily routine.

However, pain and skin reactions vary from person to person.

Why not insist on just one method

For some people, sagging is the main concern, while others may be concerned

about firmness, pores, and skin texture at the same time.

Therefore, rather than trying to address every concern

with facial lifting alone, different treatment methods may be considered together when necessary.

Conversely, if volume or the condition of the skin itself is the cause,

an approach other than lifting may be needed.

That is why choosing the device that suits you is more important than choosing one simply because someone else did!

Facial lifting begins with looking at your face first

“So which device should I get?”

It is difficult to give one answer

that applies to everyone.

That is because skin thickness and firmness, fat volume, facial volume, and facial shape

are different for each person.

At Oganacell Dermatology Clinic Jamsil Branch, rather than simply

choosing and applying the device you want, a board-certified dermatologist

checks your current facial condition and concerns and provides guidance on personalized skin correction

while taking the necessary areas into account.

Before following a popular treatment method, we hope you will first check

what your face needs right now.
