A Complete Guide to Ultherapy + Thermage Effects at Hapjeong Dermatology: From Price Comparison to Side Effect Checks

Hello.

This is Kim Ha-won from Beauty Doctors.

These days, there are so many new anti-aging devices that it can get confusing, haha.

But among them, Ultherapy and Thermage are impossible to leave out.

Especially among people looking for a dermatology clinic in Hapjeong, when they are considering both lifting and firmness, there are many inquiries about these two procedures.

Because each procedure has its own strength in different areas,

they are often performed together, and this is shortened to Ulsumaeji.

When consulting, I usually explain it like this.

Ultherapy is lifting, Thermage is tightening.

Ultherapy is a procedure focused on lifting sagging facial lines upward,

and Thermage plays a role in making the skin firmer overall.

So when sagging and loss of firmness are both noticeable,

Ulsumaeji, which combines Ultherapy and Thermage, can be a natural anti-aging option.

What’s the difference between Ultherapy and Thermage? To understand Ulsumaeji, it’s best to first know the difference between these two procedures.

Individual results may vary, and treatment results can differ from person to person.

Ultherapy is a lifting procedure that uses ultrasound energy.

It delivers energy to the SMAS layer, which lies deep within the skin,

and, as shown in the photo above, its purpose is to lift sagging tissue upward.

So,

🌹 when the jawline has become less defined 🌹 when the face appears to droop downward 🌹 when a double chin or sagging cheeks are a concern

it can help achieve a lifting effect.

Individual results may vary, and treatment results can differ from person to person.

Thermage is a procedure that uses radiofrequency energy.

It mainly stimulates the dermis, inducing collagen regeneration,

and focuses on tightening the skin overall.

So,

🌹 when skin firmness feels reduced 🌹 when fine lines or skin texture are a concern 🌹 when the face appears generally loosened

it can help with a tightening effect.

Why get Ultherapy and Thermage together? Facial aging does not occur for just one reason.

In most cases, sagging and loss of firmness progress together.

In fact, among clients who visit the Hapjeong dermatology clinic,

“I want more than just lifting, and I want to manage firmness at the same time.”

is something we hear often.

If Ultherapy lifts sagging facial lines,

and Thermage makes the skin firmer,

then the lifting effect can look more natural, and the overall impression can feel more refined.

When can you feel the effects of Ulsumaeji? Ulsumaeji is not a procedure that feels dramatically different right after treatment,

but rather one where changes are felt gradually over time.

Immediately after treatment A more defined facial line

1–2 months later Improved firmness, skin feels tighter

2–3 months later Lifting and tightening effects stabilize

Because collagen regeneration is a process that takes time,

it is better to expect natural-looking changes.

Who is Ulsumaeji suitable for? 🌹 When you feel your facial line has become less defined than before

🌹 When you want to manage lifting and firmness at the same time

🌹 When one procedure alone has felt insufficient

🌹 When you want natural changes without surgery

🌹 When recovery time feels burdensome

Especially when consulting at a dermatology clinic in Hapjeong,

for people in their 30s and 40s and beyond who want a more refined impression rather than an overly dramatic change,

Ulsumaeji is often recommended.

How much does Ulsumaeji cost? The price of Ulsumaeji varies depending on the treatment combination and the number of shots.

Based on a Hapjeong dermatology clinic,

for a combination of Thermage 600 shots + Ultherapy Prime 600 shots,

the price is generally in the upper 3 million won range to the upper 4 million won range.

In addition,

the eye-area-only treatment of Eye Thermage + Eye Ultherapy Prime can be done in the 1 million won range to the 2 million won range.

The exact cost may vary depending on your skin condition and the treatment area.

How is the Ulsumaeji procedure performed? Most dermatology clinics in Hapjeong carry out the procedure in the following order.

🌹 Consultation on skin condition and areas of concern

🌹 Design of facial lines and lifting points

🌹 Application of anesthetic cream

🌹 Ulsumaeji procedure

🌹 Soothing and finishing care

The procedure takes about an hour, and you can return to daily life right away after treatment.

Ulsumaeji side effects and precautions In most cases, these appear as temporary reactions.

🌹 Mild swelling

🌹 Warmth

🌹 A dull, heavy feeling

🌹 Discomfort when pressed

These usually improve naturally within a few days.

However, including at dermatology clinics in Hapjeong, at any hospital,

it is important to adjust the energy settings according to individual skin condition.

For more information ▼

Ulsumaeji is not a procedure that changes the face too drastically, but rather one that creates a more refined impression than before.

More than trends or price, choosing what suits your current skin condition is the most important thing.

Through 충분한 consultation, I recommend calmly checking whether it is the right procedure for you.
