Hello.

Improving the essence of skin with care,

Representative Director of Mind Dermatology,

Hongseon Lee, a dermatologist with 17 years of experience.

“I heard that getting Ulthera and Thermage together

gives better results,

but I don't have much facial fat.

If I get both at once,

won't my cheeks look hollow and gaunt?”

Ultherapy and Thermage are a common concern patients mention in the clinic when considering both procedures together.

Because combining the two procedures has become known as a representative pairing for lifting, people are interested but

they worry that the overall treatment intensity may be excessive,and that the face might instead look gaunt.That concern seems to be strong for many.

If you have previously looked into the basic differences between the two devices,you are probably familiar with the explanation that one penetrates deeply while the other is more superficial.That idea is fairly well known.

Today, from a slightly different perspective, I'll talk about why the two devices are used together and how they are applied in a divided manner to minimize volume loss.

It is not an unconditional combination for synergy.

In fact,the reason we recommend Ultherapy and Thermage togetheris not simply to amplify the effects of both treatments.

Rather,it is closer to an approach of preserving the face's valuable volume while refining the weakened contours,by applying them selectively according to the area.

Our faceshows different patterns of aging depending on the region.They manifest differently by area.

For example, the submental area and deep cheek can become heavy and sag under the influence of gravity, accumulating a sense of weight,

whereas the anterior cheek, lateral cheek, and temple may experience fat loss over time, causing volume reduction and a thinner appearance.

When attempting to address these different concerns with a single device, a more cautious approach is necessary.

Areas that need reduction can be treated with Ultherapy,

When you need to treat the area, consider Thermage

Ultheraisused to deliver ultrasound energy to deep layers of the skin to contract lax tissue and can result in a more defined facial contourfor that purpose.

Applying energy to a heavy jawline or double chincan lead to improved skin firmness and contour in the sagging area.

However, as the patient earlier worried, if Ulthera is applied excessively to the anterior or lateral cheeks where baseline volume is low,

it may appear as if cheek volume has decreased after the procedureand cheek hollowing may become more pronounced.

This is when you can consider combining Thermage.

Thermageisa device that uses radiofrequency energy to deliver thermal stimulation to the skin and is used to improve skin firmness and fine wrinkles.

It can be applied to anterior cheeks where you want to preserve existing volume or to periorbital skin with reduced elasticity,to expect improvements in firmness and fine wrinkles.

Area-specific treatments tailored to the facial contours

In other words, the important point when combining the two procedures isthat the two energies are not indiscriminately applied across the entire face.

Ulthera is used on the lower face that has become saggy and heavyexpecting improvement in firmness and contour using Ulthera,

For thin skin and concerns about fine wrinkles in the midface, Thermagerequires precise design, such as using it to increase skin elasticity.

Just because many people get a set, it doesn't mean the same proportion of shots is necessary for my face.

On my face now,where firmness improvement is needed and where existing volume should be maintainedshould be clearly distinguished,

and I hope you plan at a place that can finely adjust the treatment areas of Ulthera and Thermage according to those contours.

I will treat you sincerely.

Mind Dermatology, Chief Medical Director
