Check This Before Your Lifting Treatment

"I would like to try a lifting treatment,

but I don't know where to go."

"There are so many types of equipment.

What's the difference between them?"

"I've seen many reviews,

but what criteria should I use to make my choice?"

These days, entering just a few words into a search bar brings up countless dermatology clinics and equipment names, and with reviews also overflowing, choosing can often become even more difficult.

Among these treatments, lifting procedures can be especially confusing because there are so many types of equipment. The more information you look up, the more difficult it can be to distinguish between them.

When choosing a dermatology clinic for a lifting treatment, it is important not simply to look at the popularity of a particular device or the number of reviews, but to consider how carefully the clinic examines and explains your current condition.

Today, at Mullae-dong Dermatology Clinic (Department: Dermatology), I would like to share three criteria that may be helpful for those considering a lifting treatment.^^

If you have wanted to receive a lifting treatment but felt unsure about where to go, please focus for just three minutes.

• Does the clinic assess your skin condition first?

• Does it provide an appropriate lifting treatment?

• Does it consider the period after the procedure as well?

Does the clinic assess your skin condition first?

"My jawline doesn't look the way it used to."

"I feel like my nasolabial folds are getting deeper."

Many people tend to think of concerns like these as "sagging."

However, when you examine the face closely, the underlying cause can differ from person to person even when the concern appears to be the same type of sagging.

For example, the skin may look loose because its elasticity has decreased.

Various causes of decreased skin elasticity

As we age, collagen and elastic fibers decrease, weakening the skin's ability to support itself.

Conversely, there are also cases where changes in the position of deep cheek fat have a greater effect than the skin itself.

This is because fat inside the cheeks can move downward, making the facial contours appear less defined.

In this way, even if concerns look similar on the surface, their actual causes can vary.

Therefore, the first thing to check during a lifting consultation is not which device to use, but "what is causing the sagging?" This should be examined carefully.

If a specific device is recommended before the cause has been sufficiently assessed, there is a possibility that the treatment may take an approach that does not match your current condition.

A good consultation can be understood as a process in which the clinician first explains, in an easy-to-understand way, what changes are occurring in your face and what is contributing most to them, before explaining the procedure itself.

Various lifting treatments at Yeongdeungpo Mullae-dong U&I Clinic

When researching lifting treatments, you encounter the names of various devices, including Ultherapy, Thermage, Oligio, and InMode.

Since there are so many types, it is natural to first wonder which devices are considered effective.

Based on their mechanisms, most lifting devices can broadly be divided into "ultrasound (HIFU)" and "radiofrequency (RF)."

"Ultrasound lifting" concentrates high-intensity focused ultrasound energy at a specific depth within the skin.

How ultrasound lifting works

It can deliver thermal stimulation to deeper layers while reducing damage to the skin's surface.

In particular, it can reach the SMAS layer, the fascia layer that supports the face, so it is often used with the aim of improving sagging along the facial contours.

Radiofrequency lifting compared with ultrasound lifting

By contrast, "radiofrequency lifting" delivers thermal energy to the dermal layer within the skin.

Its principle is to apply thermal stimulation to collagen in the dermal layer to encourage improved elasticity.

It is commonly used in connection with skin elasticity, fine lines, and skin texture.

Thus, even when treatments are all called "lifting procedures," their target skin layers and the goals of improvement can differ.

Various causes of skin sagging

For this reason, before choosing a lifting treatment, you should consider whether sagging along the facial contours is your primary concern, whether reduced skin elasticity is more concerning, or whether both are present together.

Rather than looking for a clinic that recommends a specific device, you should look for one that thoroughly assesses your current facial condition and explains which type of energy may be more appropriate.

If you choose a specific treatment without sufficient consideration, the lifting procedure may be performed using an approach that is not suitable for you, so caution is needed.

Does it consider the period after the procedure as well?

With lifting treatments, it is often important to understand and manage the changes that occur afterward, rather than focusing only on the moment the procedure is performed.

Many people are interested only in how they look immediately after the procedure. However, ultrasound and radiofrequency lifting treatments generally require time for changes within the skin to develop.

Therefore, during a lifting consultation, check whether the clinic carefully explains not only the procedure itself but also the process afterward.

In particular, it may be helpful to check whether the following points are also explained during the consultation.

Points worth checking during a consultation

• When can changes usually be noticed?

• Can side effects occur after the procedure?

• What should you be careful about during the recovery period?

• What treatment schedule is generally recommended going forward?

Knowing these points in advance can help you avoid unnecessary concern about natural changes that appear after the procedure.

It can also help you create a more realistic care plan.

A good lifting consultation explains not only the day of the procedure but also the subsequent progress and care.
