Looking for a Skin Treatment You Can Keep Up With?! VOLNEWMER

All posts are written directly by Dr. Jeong-min Oh, director of Doctor O Clinic.

Hello. I’m Dr. Jeong-min Oh, director of Doctor O Clinic, where we do our utmost for every patient.

As the weather gets warmer, many people have been visiting us for lifting consultations.

When discussing lifting treatments, the question we hear most often is:

“​​So how is it different from Ultherapy? What should I get?”

Both VOLNEWMER and Ultherapy are representative lifting devices that improve skin elasticity, but there are clear differences in their mechanisms of action and the people they are best suited for.

Today, I’ll explain directly which people VOLNEWMER is effective for and how it differs from Ultherapy.

VOLNEWMER is a lifting device that uses radiofrequency energy.

The simplest way to explain the difference from Ultherapy is this:

VOLNEWMER uses radiofrequency energy to deliver heat to the shallow layers of the skin, creating a tightening effect along with a mild lifting effect.

Ultherapy uses ultrasound to deliver heat deep into the skin, creating both lifting and tightening effects.

However, this kind of explanation may not feel very relatable to patients who are actually considering the treatment.

Simply put,

Ultherapy

is suited to people with a moderate amount of facial fat, giving the impression of lifting and securing a sagging facial contour in place.

As a result, you can also achieve a slightly slimmer appearance, as if you have lost a little facial fat.

VOLNEWMER

is suited to people with a moderate to small amount of facial fat and thin skin, who do not have obvious sagging but feel that their face has somehow become a little longer.

When performed on these areas, it smooths and refines the facial contour without creating hollow cheeks, finishing with a subtle lifted appearance.

People with a relatively large amount of facial fat, particularly those whose deep cheek area is full and firm, may not achieve sufficient results with Ultherapy alone.

In such cases, thread lifting or several other treatments may be needed in combination.

But wouldn’t it be great if we could divide every face into these two clear categories?

Most faces have areas that need lifting while remodeling a moderate amount of fat, as with Ultherapy, as well as areas that need sufficient tightening without affecting the fat as much as possible.

Therefore, rather than recommending only VOLNEWMER or only Ultherapy for these patients, Doctor O Clinic in Yeongdeungpo performs All Layer Lifting.

By applying these two laser devices at the same time, we can improve fine lines and wrinkles while also creating a synergistic effect that lifts the face.

VOLNEWMER is well suited for these people

Returning to VOLNEWMER, it may be a good choice for people who:

• Have little facial fat but feel that the skin is sagging downward without firmness, making the midface appear longer

• Notice vertical lines around the mouth, fine lines around the eyes, or fine lines around the inner corners of the eyes when smiling

• Are beginning to feel that the area above the nasolabial folds is becoming fuller

• Are starting to notice neck wrinkles

For these areas, VOLNEWMER can be an excellent choice for consistent maintenance.

The eye area should always be treated with Eye VOLNEWMER

I actively use VOLNEWMER not only on the entire face but also around the eyes and on neck wrinkles.

One advantage of VOLNEWMER is that the end of the tip can tilt and move up, down, left, and right.

This helps improve contact between the tip and areas with many curves, such as the face and eye sockets, as well as the neck, which does not have a strong support structure like bone. This allows energy to be delivered safely and sufficiently.

After treatment, the eyelids become more elastic, improving the feeling of drooping eyelids.

How is the treatment performed?

For the entire face, we generally recommend around 600 shots.

For the eye area, we recommend 200 shots.

For neck wrinkles, we recommend approximately 300–400 shots.

The treatment takes about 20 minutes based on 600 shots.

The pain is relatively mild, so anesthesia is not necessary. However, many people are concerned about burns caused by the hot sensation, so at Doctor O Clinic in Yeongdeungpo, we apply numbing cream before performing VOLNEWMER.

When do the effects appear?

Immediately after treatment, you can feel that your skin tone looks clearer and that your skin feels soft and smooth while washing your face.

Usually, starting about two weeks after treatment, you can gradually begin to feel changes in skin elasticity and a lifting sensation.

If you receive VOLNEWMER periodically, approximately two to three times a year, you can effectively manage deepening wrinkles.

What precautions should be taken after treatment?

Immediately after treatment, your face may become red and feel slightly swollen, as if you have just come out of a sauna, but this usually settles within several dozen minutes.

There is no significant downtime, so there are no restrictions on daily activities, and the treatment can be performed safely even before an important event.

VOLNEWMER has contraindications.

Radiofrequency treatments such as VOLNEWMER are not recommended for people who have electronic medical devices, such as a pacemaker or cochlear implant, implanted in their body.

There is no need to be disappointed if VOLNEWMER is contraindicated for you.

Even if radiofrequency lifting is not suitable, Doctor O Clinic in Yeongdeungpo has various lifting devices, including Ultherapy, Shurink, Super Veloce Neotite (K-Titanium), and Potenza DDR Lifting.

If you cannot receive VOLNEWMER, we can recommend an appropriate laser treatment after a consultation.

“You still don’t invest in stocks?”—there’s a meme going around

You’ve probably been investing in stocks a lot lately, right? Which do you prefer: short-term trading or long-term investing?

As someone who favors long-term investing,

I think skin care is a long-term investment rather than a short-term trade.

Your skin will not suddenly become younger just because you have received VOLNEWMER once.

Rather than expecting a major change all at once, consistently building up small treatments over time can create an increasingly greater difference.

Why not start VOLNEWMER as part of a consistent maintenance routine before the aging process begins in earnest?

Please remember that with consistent VOLNEWMER treatments, you may be more likely to have younger-looking, firmer skin than others of the same age five or ten years from now.

Thank you.
