Customized lifting treatment based on balance Rather than trends or excessive changes toward preserving the skin's inherent beauty Between medical standards and individual expectations we recommend treatments suited to the skin. |

Premium care that plans the entire process From consultation to procedure and follow-up, a dermatology specialist is personally involved, creating natural and comfortable changes. |
Hello.
Improving the essence of skin with care,
Director, Mind Dermatology
I am Hongseon Lee, a dermatologist with 17 years of experience.
"Doctor, today
I'll book Ulthera 300 shots."
"My friend had Thermage
and said it was effective,"
I'm planning to get Thermage too
Gongdeok Dermatology Clinic
There are quite a few people who already decide not only the procedure but also the exact number of shots in their minds before coming in.
Since procedures like Ulthera or Thermage are not inexpensive,
they tend to look up and study a lot of information on YouTube or blogs before their visit.
I understand well that, since you invest valuable time and money, you don't want to fail.

But speaking as a physician who has seen many patients' skin over 17 years,
rather than deciding the procedure first,it is more important tomake an accurate diagnosis of the current condition.
In many cases, when we actually consult, a different method fits much better than the procedure they had in mind.

Ulthera and Thermage: why do they produce different results even though both are lifting treatments?
Ulthera and Thermage are both representative lifting devices.
So it's easy to think they're similar procedures,
but in reality they target different skin layers with their energy, and the directions of change you can expect are completely different.
The important question is not 'which device is more expensive or better',
but 'what aging signs are appearing on my face right now?'^^

Shall I give an example?

If, when you look in the mirror, your jawline seems less defined than before and the deep cheek area has bulged downward so that your facial contour itself has changed,
you need to stimulate the 'deep layer' that supports the skin from underneath, not just the skin surface.
On the other hand, if your facial contours haven't noticeably sagged but your skin oddly feels paper-thin,
and you have fine wrinkles around the eyes or mouthIf your concern is sagging with a marked loss of firmness, the approach needs to be completely different.

Ulthera rebuilds the structure in the 'deeper layers'.
First, Ulthera is a device that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU).
Like focusing sunlight with a magnifying glass to burn a single point,
it delivers ultrasound energy precisely to the very deep layer of the skin called the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS).
This SMAS is, simply put, the 'pillar' that supports the facial tissues so they don't slump downward,'pillar'in effect.
Ulthera works by applying thermal stimulation to this pillar to tighten and contract it.

Therefore, if gravity has caused jowling or a double chin,
or if deep cheek fat has made the facial contour uneven,a 'change in facial contour'can be the main concern for which it provides an excellent solution.
Thermage focuses on the skin's own elasticity.
By contrast, Thermage uses radiofrequency (RF) energy. Unlike Ulthera, which targets deeper layers,
it gradually warms the dermis across both superficial and deeper portions of the skin.

This stimulation helps the collagen network loosened by aging to regenerate denser and firmer.
So,when the issue is overall thin, dry skin rather than sagging itself,
or when you want to smooth fine lines and skin texture,it is a procedure that can be very effective.

Why I insist on taking time for consultations
Everyone has different skin thickness, amounts of fat, and angles of sagging.
Therefore, until we meet face to face and have a thorough consultation, no one can give an accurate answer.
This is exactly why I spend a considerable amount of time talking with each patient in the consultation room.

When you look in the mirror, which areas bother you the most,
and what changes you want — I need to check even the smallest details in person to determine the proper direction for lifting that each patient truly needs. ^^
I hope my writing today has been of some help.
I will treat you with sincerity.
