If You’re Hoping for a Procedure During Hangawi

Mok-dong Chuseok Holiday Dermatology

Hello.

I’m Kim Jin-hyun, CEO and Chief Director of U&I Clinic Mok-dong Branch.

“During the holiday period, I want to get a lifting procedure. Do you provide treatment during Chuseok?”

This is a question we almost always hear every year as Chuseok approaches.

Many people want to get skin procedures during the holiday period because it is difficult to make time on ordinary days.

In particular, this Chuseok holiday overlaps with Hangawi, the substitute holiday, and National Foundation Day, so many people may be enjoying a long break.

So today, along with U&I Clinic Mok-dong Branch’s Chuseok holiday consultation schedule,

I’d like to introduce three lifting procedures that are frequently inquired about during this period.

Closed for the Chuseok holiday

Lifting procedures are not simply about the feeling of “pulling the skin”; the key is to restore elasticity and contour in a way that suits you.

If you are considering lifting during the Chuseok holiday, it may be a good idea to look in advance at which procedure best suits your face and lifestyle.

Now, let’s go over three lifting methods in order: ultrasound, radiofrequency, and thread lifting.

  • Ultrasound Lifting

  • Radiofrequency Lifting

  • Thread Lifting

Ultrasound Lifting

Ultrasound lifting is also called the HIFU method,

and it is a procedure that induces a lifting effect by stimulating the skin with concentrated ultrasound energy, like using a magnifying glass to gather sunlight and burn one point.

Representative devices include Ultherapy Prime and Shurink Universe.

Ultherapy’s strengths are its powerful energy that reaches the SMAS layer and its precise procedures using real-time ultrasound imaging.

Its results also last a long time, with effects expected to last about one year from a single treatment.

On the other hand, Shurink Universe works on a similar principle to Ultherapy, but because it is a domestically made device, the cost is much more affordable, which is why many people choose it.

However, its duration is about 3 to 6 months, so it is suitable for those who want ongoing lifting management.

What’s important here is that the choice should vary depending on skin thickness and the amount of facial fat.

For people with more facial fat, a fat-reduction effect can also be expected, but conversely, for people with less facial fat, there is a concern about side effects such as hollowed cheeks.

So you must make your decision only after sufficient consultation with the medical staff.

Radiofrequency Lifting

Unlike ultrasound, radiofrequency lifting uses heat delivered to the dermis to stimulate collagen production.

Rather than the feeling of physically “pulling” the skin, it can be seen as a natural lifting method that gradually improves elasticity.

Thermage FLX is a representative radiofrequency device that induces collagen regeneration through deep heat stimulation and improves both skin texture and elasticity at the same time.

It is especially preferred because it can be used precisely on thin areas such as around the eyes.

Oligio X works on the same principle as Thermage, but because the procedure cost is relatively lower, it is known as a “cost-effective lifting” device.

duration and results vary from person to person, but it is relatively less burdensome as a first lifting procedure.

The first one I picked is

the InMode FORMA mode tip. ^^

And the InMode FORMA mode is a procedure that evenly delivers radiofrequency energy to the skin, gently stimulating collagen production.

There is a warm sensation, but there is little pain, and the advantage is that you can return to daily life immediately after the procedure.

Compared with ultrasound lifting, there is less concern about hollowed cheeks, and swelling immediately after the procedure is also milder, so it is especially recommended for those who want a natural lifting effect.

Thread Lifting

If you want visibly improved sagging skin or are hoping for a quick lifting effect, thread lifting may be suitable.

It is a method in which dissolvable threads are inserted into the skin to directly lift it.

Recently, threads that also induce collagen production have been developed, evolving beyond a simple pulling effect into a procedure that can also be expected to improve elasticity over the long term.

However, thread lifting must be performed while considering the individual’s skin thickness, degree of sagging, and the overall structure of the face, so the judgment of experienced medical staff is important.

Also, swelling or a pulling sensation may occur immediately after the procedure, so if you have an important schedule coming up, it is best to adjust your plans in advance.

If you were considering a skin procedure during the Chuseok holiday, now may be the right time.

In particular, lifting procedures are one of the treatments that are well-suited to receiving during a holiday with time for rest.

If you understand the principles and characteristics of ultrasound, radiofrequency, and thread lifting and choose the procedure that suits you, you can expect more satisfying results.

Above all, what matters most is sufficient consultation and diagnosis before the procedure. The choice of procedure can vary depending on skin type, facial lines, and lifestyle patterns.
