Mokdong Lifting: What If There Are So Many Types That You're Confused?
Mokdong Station Lifting
Hello.
I’m Kim Jin-hyeon, Chief Director at YOU&I Clinic Mokdong Branch.

“I’m thinking about getting a lifting procedure,
but I have no idea what I should choose.”
“I heard InMode is good,” “Ulthera seems effective, but it’s expensive and painful...”
The more you look for reviews here and there, the more confusing it becomes to figure out which procedure is actually right for your face.
At times like this, what matters is not the name of the procedure, but the current condition of your face.
That’s because the most suitable lifting method can vary completely depending on whether your skin is thin or thick, whether you have a lot of fat, or whether your skin lacks elasticity.

Today, I’ll explain the things you should know before choosing a procedure if you’re considering lifting at Mokdong Station.

What is the principle behind lifting?
A loss of skin elasticity is not just a problem you see on the surface.
The face has a complex structure beneath the skin, with layers of fat, muscle, ligaments, and bone all connected.
Among these, the area called the “supporting ligament” plays a role in firmly holding the skin and soft tissues in place.

Over time, these ligaments loosen, and at the same time elastic fibers such as collagen and elastin decrease, leading to sagging.
As these complex structural changes accumulate, the jawline collapses, the cheeks move downward, and the face begins to look less defined.
That is why lifting is not simply about “pulling” the skin; it requires an approach that re-supports the facial structure and restores elasticity.

What are the types of lifting?
These days, commonly used lifting procedures can be broadly divided into non-invasive methods and thread lifting.
Invasive methods that require cutting into the face are not commonly used, so today we’ll take a look at these two methods one by one.

The first is non-invasive lifting.
This method does not involve making an incision or inserting threads into the skin, and instead uses energy such as ultrasound or radiofrequency to stimulate the deeper layers of the skin.
Because recovery time is short and it does not leave wounds on the skin, it is a popular option even for people with little prior procedure experience.
For example, Ulthera uses high-intensity focused ultrasound to deliver heat to the SMAS layer and induce collagen production, restoring skin elasticity.
Because it can deliver deep stimulation to areas where elasticity has weakened, it is effective for improving sagging along the jawline and cheeks.
InMode uses two modes to stimulate the skin and the subcutaneous fat layer.
In particular, when there is a double chin or a lot of cheek fat, you can expect a dual effect of reducing fat while improving firmness.
Shrinc is based on a principle similar to Ulthera, but the energy stimulation is a little gentler, and the price burden is relatively lower, making it a suitable option for lifting beginners.

The second is thread lifting.
This method physically inserts special threads under the skin to pull it upward, and its characteristic is that the visible effect appears immediately.
The threads used are made of materials that dissolve in the body, so they are relatively safe in terms of stability.
However, there may be psychological discomfort because a foreign material is inserted under the skin.
It tends to be especially effective when the skin is thin and sagging is severe.
Because the duration and results vary depending on the type of thread, insertion depth, and direction, the medical staff’s technical skill and anatomical understanding are extremely important.

Which one is better?
The question people ask most often when considering a procedure is, “Which lifting method is right for me?”
However, it is not easy to answer.
That’s because everyone has different skin thickness, amounts of fat, elasticity, and expected results.

For example, if your face has a lot of fat, InMode FX may be effective for reducing fat and refining the facial contour.
On the other hand, if your skin is thin and already sagging a lot, it may be much more effective to compensate for the sagging physically through thread lifting.
As you can see, even when the issue is the same “sagging,” the cause and skin structure are different, so you cannot decide which lifting method is best simply based on other people’s reviews or current trends.
A careful skin diagnosis and consultation are needed for a strategic approach that suits you.

Today, I talked about what you should know if you are considering lifting at Mokdong Station.
The most important thing when looking into lifting procedures is not simply, “I heard this procedure is good,” but rather figuring out, “Which method is most suitable for my face?”
To achieve satisfying results, please remember that it is important to understand the principle of the procedure and make a choice that suits you after sufficient consultation.^^
