"I have a lot of facial fat, and my skin has lost firmness too,

so my jawline looks very saggy.."

People with a lot of facial fat or cheek fat often feel frustrated because even when they diet, the face does not slim down easily.

On top of that, when firmness decreases with age, it can become even more stressful.

These days, lifting devices come in many varieties, so many people wonder which procedure is right for their own facial condition.

Today, among the various devices, I will explain in detail about "InMode lifting," which is often chosen by people concerned about facial fat.

I will also summarize the differences from "Ulthera," another lifting treatment that is often compared with it.

Through this post, you will be able to understand the procedure’s principles, effects, and criteria for choosing a treatment at a glance.

What is InMode?

InMode is a lifting procedure that helps improve skin firmness while also refining facial fat.

It is considered especially effective when sagging is accompanied by areas with a lot of fat, such as a double chin or cheek fat.

This procedure works differently across the layers of the skin through two modes.

First, the FX mode secures the skin like pinching fabric with tongs to hold it in place, and then delivers radiofrequency and high-voltage energy between the skin layers to remove unnecessary fat.

As fat cells decrease through this process, the facial contours appear more refined.

On the other hand, the Forma mode applies heat to the dermal layer of the skin to induce the production of collagen and elastin.

As elastic components increase, you may notice improved skin texture and lifting effects.

In this way, InMode can be seen as a comprehensive approach that helps with both firmness lifting and fat improvement through its two modes.

How is it different from Ulthera?

The lifting procedure most often mentioned when comparing treatments is Ulthera.

Ulthera uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to concentrate heat on the deep fascial layer of the skin.

When the deep layers of the skin contract with ultrasound energy, the stimulated area gradually begins producing new collagen over time.

You may feel immediate skin tightening, but lifting effects appear gradually as collagen regeneration begins in earnest after about 2 to 3 months.

Because it takes time for new collagen to form, it is suitable for those who want slow, natural-looking lifting.

On the other hand, InMode includes two modes with different functions within one device, which is a major advantage because it can address both skin firmness improvement and fat refinement at the same time.

If Ulthera has strength in one specific focus (fascial lifting), InMode can be understood as enabling a three-dimensional approach that addresses multiple layers in balance.

2 Things to Check Before the Procedure

InMode is known as a relatively simple lifting procedure, but because it delivers radiofrequency energy to the skin, there are several things to check.

First, you should be sure to understand that InMode may not be suitable depending on the condition of your skin.

For example, if the skin is very thin or sensitive, the radiofrequency heat stimulation may instead become irritating.

In such cases, it is better to take a step-by-step approach with another lifting method or a procedure with lower intensity.

Second, it is also helpful to get advice in advance about a periodic treatment plan.

Rather than expecting dramatic results from a single session, InMode is ideally done consistently at least three times at intervals of 3 to 4 weeks.

If the treatment cycle is designed to fit your individual skin condition and lifestyle, satisfaction can be even higher.

Today, I explained the key points that people considering Mokdong InMode should know.

In particular, the face is closely connected to both the fat layer and skin structure, so in many cases it does not improve with dieting alone.

In such cases, InMode, which helps improve firmness while also refining fat, can be a good alternative.
