Ulthera Prime

'Isn't it true that the more shots Ulthera has, the better the results will always be?'

We hear this question very often. ^^;;

But I want to make it clear that this is a misconception.

Results are influenced by various factors in combination, not just the number of shots, including skin condition, energy intensity, depth of delivery, and targeting.

Today, starting with how Ulthera works and also introducing the upgraded Ulthera Prime, I'll compare 100 shots and 300 shots.

How Ulthera Works

Ulthera uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to concentrate on deep layers of the skin, especially the SMAS layer (the fascial layer), creating thermal coagulation points.

That heat causes the tissue to contract, and over time it promotes collagen regeneration, which is how the skin becomes tighter and firmer.

There can be an immediate change, but lifting effects usually appear gradually after 2 to 3 months.

Ulthera Prime

Recently, an upgraded Ulthera device called Ulthera Prime was also released.

Its features include a larger screen and higher clarity, which allows energy to be delivered more evenly and deeply than before, enhancing safety and effectiveness.

Earlier, when explaining how Ulthera works, I mentioned that it creates thermal coagulation points.

Here, the number of shots refers to how many thermal coagulation points are created in the skin.

In other words, 100 shots means 100 thermal coagulation points, and 300 shots means 300 thermal coagulation points.

That is why 100 shots are usually used when focusing on a small local area such as the eye area or jawline, while 300 shots are used for a wider area such as under the chin or a double chin.

You may again ask whether the effect simply increases in proportion to the number of shots. ^^;;

But the important point here is not the number of shots itself, but the intensity.

Even with 100 shots, if the energy is delivered strongly and accurately, it can produce sufficient results.

On the other hand, even with 300 shots, if the intensity is too weak, the desired lifting effect may be insufficient.

In the end, the most important thing is adjusting the intensity and number of shots according to skin thickness, face size, and the degree of sagging.

That is why the same 300 shots can produce a big effect for one person and only a minimal effect for another.

Side Effects and Prevention Methods

Common side effects after Ulthera treatment include redness, swelling, and mild pain.

In most cases, these subside within a few days, but sometimes cheek hollowing, temporary sensory changes, or in severe cases, burn-like side effects may occur.

In particular, cheek hollowing occurs when energy is delivered excessively to the fat layer, and if the depth of delivery is not adjusted accurately, such issues can arise, so caution is needed.

A view of the pre-treatment diagnosis.

Therefore, to reduce side effects, an accurate skin diagnosis before the procedure, careful energy adjustment by an experienced doctor, and proper machine settings are essential.

After the procedure, careful use of cold compresses, moisturization, and sun protection can help with recovery.

The key to Yeongdeungpo Ulthera treatment is not just the number of shots, but the intensity and precision that match each individual's skin condition.

This is because the depth and intensity of delivery must be adjusted according to the skin condition in order to achieve the desired lifting and firmness-improving effects. ^^

Therefore, setting up a plan that suits you is important, and for that, a thorough diagnosis and consultation with the medical staff is essential.

And the recently released Ulthera Prime can help make the treatment safer and more effective by addressing these points.

Thank you. This was U&I in Yeongdeungpo.^^
