Hello,
This is Human Dermatology Seoul National University Branch.
The changing seasons, especially the transitional period when the temperature difference between day and night becomes large, place a heavy burden on the skin. Even if mornings and evenings are cool, the daytime temperature remains warm, and when dry winds are added, the skin can easily lose moisture.
The skin surface becomes dry and cracked, and along with rougher skin texture, fine lines begin to stand out. Simply applying moisturizer does not fundamentally solve these problems.
As time passes, the internal structure of the skin changes, so the symptoms that appear on the surface go beyond simple dryness and lead to reduced elasticity and aging. In particular, the seasonal transition is also a time when skin aging becomes noticeably more apparent. At moments like this, many people start thinking about a more fundamental skin recovery solution, and one of the representative methods is the Nakseongdae Thermage procedure.
Nakseongdae Thermage for Seasonal Skin Concerns with Natural Lifting


What is Thermage?
Thermage is a lifting procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to deliver heat into the dermal layer of the skin. Because the energy is concentrated only inside the skin without affecting the surface, there is little visible damage externally, while internally the collagen fibers contract and new collagen production is stimulated at the same time.
Through this process, the skin gradually regains firmness and naturally achieves a lifting effect. Above all, because no incision or anesthesia is required, the recovery period is short and many people choose Nakseongdae Thermage since they can return to daily life immediately after the procedure.

Differences Between Skin in the 20s and 30s
- Decrease in collagen and elastin
In the early 20s, the skin has a strong ability to recover on its own. Sufficient collagen and elastin support the skin, helping maintain a moist and smooth texture.
However, as people move from their late 20s into their 30s, the situation changes. As part of the natural aging process, the amounts of collagen and elastin decrease, and skin elasticity gradually declines, making fine lines and enlarged pores more noticeable. When external factors such as UV exposure, irregular lifestyle habits, and stress are added, skin aging can progress much faster.
In particular, for women, from the early 30s onward, the moisture content within the skin can drop sharply, making the skin feel dull and causing makeup to sit unevenly. At this stage, simple cosmetic care is not enough to restore the skin’s natural elasticity, and treatment that can actively stimulate collagen production is needed.

Features and Benefits of Thermage
Thermage is not a procedure focused on just one effect. It stands out because it can address multiple skin concerns.
First, it is excellent for improving fine lines and pores. By applying heat deep within the skin to tighten the dermal layer, it can help reduce fine lines and refine pores.
Second, it is suitable even for thin and dry skin. It can be safely applied to people who feel burdened by other laser procedures because of thin skin, or who have relatively little cheek fat and therefore hesitate about lifting procedures.
Third, quick recovery is one of its advantages. Since no incision or anesthesia is needed, there is almost no swelling or bruising immediately after the procedure, and daily life can resume right away. It is especially a practical option for office workers and for those who cannot afford to take much time off due to study, childcare, or other responsibilities.
In this way, Nakseongdae Thermage is a procedure that satisfies both natural improvement and convenience, and it can be used across a wide range of age groups, from the stage of first noticing skin aging to the stage where more serious elasticity improvement is needed.

Effects of Thermage FLX
Thermage FLX is a device that enhances the advantages of existing Thermage and improves both effectiveness and comfort by increasing energy delivery efficiency. At our clinic, we use this device to help induce collagen fiber contraction and regeneration deep within the skin, thereby supporting skin regeneration and wrinkle improvement.
Improved skin elasticity: Heat is generated deep in the dermal layer, contracting existing collagen and promoting the regeneration of new collagen. As a result, sagging skin can become firmer and the facial contour more refined.
Promotes collagen regeneration: Radiofrequency stimulation not only activates existing collagen but also induces the formation of new fibers. Because of this, it can have a positive effect not only in the short term but also on long-term skin health.
Wrinkle improvement: It is excellent for lifting the entire face, as well as areas with fine lines such as the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. Rather than simply pulling the skin from the outside, it restores firmness from within, providing a natural improvement.


To maximize the effects of the procedure, the experience of skilled medical staff is more important than anything else. Human Dermatology Seoul National University Branch, where Nakseongdae Thermage is available, has Director Bang Chan-il and Director Noh Yeon-a on staff, providing customized medical services to patients. As dermatology specialists, they propose treatment methods suited to each patient’s skin condition and concerns through years of clinical experience.
Our clinic avoids excessive procedures and follows the principle of recommending only the treatments that are truly necessary for the patient, placing patient safety first and pursuing treatment that looks beyond short-term change to long-term skin health.

It is a familiar experience for anyone to find their skin concerns deepening each season as dryness, fine lines, and reduced elasticity become more noticeable. When simple cosmetics or temporary care reach their limits, consider getting help from a place where Nakseongdae Thermage is available.
It can be an effective way to enhance the skin’s natural ability to recover and bring about fundamental change. In particular, Thermage performed by medical staff with professional experience provides safe and natural improvement, helping many people regain confidence in their skin.
If you are worried about skin concerns during the seasonal transition, we hope you will receive help from dermatology specialists so you can reduce concerns about skin aging and maintain healthier beauty for longer.
