Hello.

I am Kim Jin-hyeon, chief director at UNI Clinic Mokdong.

“ My friends around me all say it’s good,

but I feel like I’m the only one seeing no changes! “

After receiving an Oligio procedure, people sometimes share concerns like this. When the elasticity improvement is not as noticeable as they expected, they may even wonder whether something went wrong with the procedure.

However, a lifting procedure is not something whose results are determined by a single device alone.

Responses can vary depending on each individual’s skin characteristics and condition.

If you received Oligio but did not get the results you wanted, please focus for just 3 minutes and read today’s post carefully.

What is Oligio?

Oligio is a device that uses radiofrequency energy to apply heat to the dermal layer and help improve skin elasticity.

The principle is to stimulate collagen regeneration and elastin restructuring so that the skin is tightened and lifted from within.

It is also known as a radiofrequency device customized for Korea, with settings tailored to the skin thickness and elasticity patterns of Koreans.

What sets Oligio apart from other radiofrequency devices is its “vibration function” and “cooling system.”

To reduce discomfort caused by the heat generated during the procedure as much as possible, the treatment tip is designed so that vibration and cooling operate simultaneously.

Thanks to this, the burden of pain is relatively low, and return to daily life after the procedure is also relatively quick.

In addition, Oligio is a non-invasive method that does not damage the skin surface while applying heat to the dermal layer to induce collagen remodeling, making it suitable for observing gradual improvements in elasticity over about 3 to 6 months.

(Of course, the timeframe varies from person to person.)

That is why people who prefer long-term care and natural-looking maintenance often take a particular interest in it.

What if Oligio has no effect?

However, there are sometimes people who say they did not see the changes they expected after an Oligio procedure.

What could be the reason?

In such cases, rather than a problem with the procedure itself, it is often related to the characteristics of the skin.

For example, skin with a thick dermal layer and progressed fibrosis may show a slower response even to the same radiofrequency stimulation.

In addition, skin whose collagen-producing ability has declined due to aging will inevitably have a slower and more modest regenerative response.

In such cases, a single radiofrequency stimulus is not enough for elasticity care,

so the treatment plan needs to be adjusted by combining additional collagen-inducing procedures or by modifying the treatment interval.

However, if you continue treatment in the same way and at the same interval as everyone else without such detailed adjustments, it is natural that the changes may not be satisfying.

“ Then could one session be insufficient? “

Yes, skin lifting is not a care method that brings about change like magic in an instant.

It needs to be carried out slowly over the long term.

Although the recommended number of sessions and intervals vary by individual, the general strategy is to repeat the procedure about 3 times to accumulate collagen production.

Also, there are sometimes people who think Oligio is not helpful because they misunderstand the timing of the changes.

You may feel immediate tightness after the procedure, but this may simply be an illusion caused by temporary swelling.

True lifting improvement generally begins to appear gradually about 2 to 4 weeks later, when collagen regeneration starts within the tissue.

Therefore, after the procedure, it is necessary to wait calmly for a while.

Seoul Oligio

Who is it suitable for?

People in their 30s to 40s with early-stage skin sagging

People who want to avoid surgery or a long recovery

People who want localized lifting of areas such as the jawline or cheeks rather than full-face lifting

People who are sensitive to skin stimulation or pain

In particular, the less subcutaneous fat you have and the less pronounced the reduction in skin elasticity is, the faster the response to Oligio may appear.

On the other hand, if the fat layer is thick and sagging is severe, it may be a wiser approach to combine it with an ultrasound-based lifting device or consider combination treatment with a volume-improving procedure.

Therefore, it is important to consult with medical staff sufficiently before the procedure and carefully assess your skin condition, skin thickness, and degree of elasticity to make a plan suited to your own condition.

Oligio is not a device that helps with lifting just because it is used without thought.

Various factors such as an individual’s skin structure, degree of aging, degree of fibrosis, and distribution of subcutaneous fat can affect the results.

So if you received Oligio but did not feel a proper change,

please check again carefully whether you went through thorough pre-treatment diagnosis and consultation, and whether the procedure was carried out in a way appropriate for your type.

If you undergo treatment with sufficient understanding and consultation beforehand, Oligio can become one of the good options for improving elasticity without excessive burden.^^

Thank you for reading this long post all the way to the end today :)

This has been Kim Jin-hyeon, chief director at UNI Clinic Mokdong.
