Hello.

Improving the essence of skin with care,

Chief Medical Director, Mind Dermatology

I am Dr. Hongseon Lee, a dermatologist with 17 years of experience.

Ulthera is the same device,

so what should you look for when choosing a clinic?

When researching Ulthera, some people first check the price or the number of shots.

Because the device has the same name, you might think the process would be similar wherever you receive it.

However, Ulthera is not a procedure that ends simply because the device is available.

which depth within the skin the energy will be delivered to,

how the shots will be distributed across areas,

whether Ulthera is appropriate for the current laxitythem,

need to be considered together.

So if you are considering Ulthera at Hapjeong Dermatology,

I, in addition to the device name or price,three thingsI would like you to check.

Today I'll explain, one by one, which aspects are worth looking at. ^^

Is the procedure performed while actually viewing inside the skin?

Ulthera, before and during the procedure, is designed to allow confirmation of the internal skin structures with real-time ultrasound imaging.

The reason this imaging function is used is

although the face may appear externally like a single layer of skin,because the depth of the underlying tissues differs by areathat is.

The cheeks and jawline are different, and even on the same cheek, there are differences between people in the depth at which the skin or fat layers are located.

So I, while performing the procedure, look at the screen and

nowconsider the process of directly confirming which layer the energy is entering to be important.

Even when comparing Ulthera procedures at Hapjeong Dermatology, rather than just hearing that there is an ultrasound imaging function,

I recommend asking whether the practitioner checks under the skin during the actual procedure.

Rather than how many shots,

is where they are applied more important?

Yes. Even with the same number of shots,the treatment plan differs depending on how they are distributed.

For example, using 300 shots focused on the jawline

is not the same as dividing them broadly from the cheeks to the side of the face.

Some people are concerned about sagging under the chin,

while others have reduced volume under the cheekbones or on the side cheeks, making hollowness more noticeable.

In such cases, instead of splitting a fixed number of shots evenly across the whole face,

you should first distinguish between areas that need strong energy delivery and areas that require a more cautious approach.

So at Hapjeong Dermatology's Ulthera consultations, rather than asking how many shots you had in mind,

I usually ask first which area has bothered you the most,That's my approach.

Once the treatment area is determined, you can plan the number of shots accordingly.

For your current skin laxity,

have you also checked whether Ulthera is suitable?

Just because the facial contours have softened,we don't treat all types of sagging in the same way.

The face appearing sagged is not always due to laxity of the deep tissues..

There are cases where heavy descent is due to large amounts of submental or cheek fat,

and conversely some people show deeper nasolabial folds and more prominent mouth corners because of volume loss in the anterior cheek.

In such cases, increasing the number of Ulthera shots alone will not achieve the desired result.

So when you come to Hapjeong Dermatology for Ulthera,

"How many shots do I need?"Rather than just asking that,

"What is making my face look saggy?"I would like you to check that first.

If there are areas that need Ulthera, plan focusing on those areas,

and if other causes play a larger role, consider treatments tailored to those causes separately.

Ulthera is a well-known lifting device.

Because of that, it is easy to compare clinics based only on the device name or number of shots.

If you are researching Ulthera at Mind Dermatology in Hapjeong,

check whether the procedure is performed while actually visualizing the structures under the skin,

whether shots are allocated according to the concern areas,

and whether the current sagging

is a problem that can be addressed with Ultheraup to

that you have reviewed together.

For a natural lift that suits my face, rather than deciding which device to use,

first it is important to confirm where the change in your facial contour is coming from.

At Mind Dermatology,

before the procedure I, as a board-certified dermatologist, examine skin thickness, fat volume, and the locations where sagging appears,

and plan the necessary depth and extentof treatment.

If you are considering lifting, rather than deciding how many shots to get first,

I recommend first identifying what has changed on your face and which approach is needed for that change.

I will treat you sincerely.
