One factor that
helps gauge a person's age is their skin.
The skin is the part where changes due to aging
are most visibly apparent.
Skin aging typically begins in the late
20s to early 30s.
This aging process involves a reduction in elastic fibers
within the dermis, leading to wrinkles and sagging skin.
Aged skin does not naturally recover.
So, how can wrinkled
and sagging skin be restored?
Hongdae Dermatology's lifting treatments restore skin that has lost elasticity
due
to aging to a healthy state, helping you regain smooth skin texture. Since each
person has a different skin type and
treatment goals vary, it's crucial to carefully consider these factors
and apply the appropriate procedure.
Hongdae Skin Clinic Mind recommends lifting treatments tailored to each individual, based
on comprehensive consideration by dermatologists
of factors like age, skin condition, facial bone structure, and
facial contours.
Shurink Universe
Shurink Universe lifts the skin by precisely
focusing
strong ultrasound energy at depths of 1.5mm to 4
.5mm beneath the skin.
It works by creating thermal coagulation points in the dermis and superficial
musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) layers through
high-intensity focused ultrasound. Around these points
, collagen regeneration actively
occurs through the body's natural
healing process, gradually producing a lifting effect.
When laser energy is applied to the skin
, thermal
coagulation occurs within the tissue
, causing simultaneous contraction.
This process naturally
pulls the skin surface
upward, effectively lifting sagging
and loose
skin through this tension effect.
As a result, you can expect the facial contours to become more
defined, and the features to appear sharper
and more distinct.
Specifically, the HIFU (High-Intensity
Focused Ultrasound) technology used in the Shrink procedure intensively
stimulates the deep fascia layer beneath the skin,
known as the dermal fascia. This
helps strengthen
the fascia that has weakened and sagged due to aging.
This significantly improves skin elasticity, cultivating healthier
, firmer skin
that creates a natural, youthful appearance.
Thanks to this principle, the Shrink procedure has established itself as
a leading skin tightening
treatment that effectively improves sagging skin caused by aging.
Thermage FLX
Thermage has evolved from its first
generation to the current fourth generation.
Thermage FLX is the fourth generation, a lifting treatment
utilizing radiofrequency energy.
It delivers energy deep into the dermis
and subcutaneous fat layers, inducing collagen
regeneration to enhance elasticity and effectively
improve wrinkles.
Its safety is
proven through rigorous FDA certification, and its
use of single-use genuine tips ensures
enhanced hygiene. Collagen regeneration enables the maintenance of
natural elasticity.
Thermage FLX achieves the same effect as CPT's 900
shots with just 600 shots, and its larger tip reduces
treatment
time compared to previous models.
Furthermore, while CPT equipment measures
resistance once
before the entire procedure,
FLX employs an automatic adjustment algorithm
that measures resistance for each shot
in each area, reducing side effects
like burns or redness caused by heat.
Ulthera Lifting
Ulthera is an ideal treatment for sharpening facial
contours dulled
by sagging skin. Unlike other lifting procedures
,
it incorporates real-time ultrasound imaging
technology into the device, allowing precise assessment of the patient's skin depth and
structure during treatment.
To achieve proper
tightening effects during lifting
procedures, it is necessary to target the fascia layer with
precise treatment.
Ulthera stimulates the fascia layer,
lifting sagging
skin through skin contraction, with effects
becoming increasingly
noticeable over time.
It boosts elasticity and
provides a tightening effect without damaging the skin surface
using high-intensity focused ultrasound energy. Approved by the U.S. FDA and
Korea's KFDA, you can
receive it without concerns about safety.
3DEEP PURE 20.
3DEEP PURE 20. is a
radiofrequency lifting device. It incorporates
six RF output sources,
phase-controlled RF technology,
motion sensors, and real-time resistance
measurement technology, enabling consistent
delivery of RF heat throughout all skin layers
.
It delivers subtle
energy deep into the tissue while minimizing
heat at
the skin surface,
allowing for satisfying
results with minimal discomfort.
Furthermore, interchangeable handpieces
allow for precise treatment tailored to
individual skin
types, reaching even curved or narrow areas, and
significantly aids in scar improvement.
With its functionality and as a medical laser device
approved by the U.S. FDA, you can
receive treatment with confidence,
free from concerns about safety.
Each treatment possesses unique characteristics
and properties. Since
every individual's constitution and condition
differ, the effects observed post-treatment can vary significantly from
person to person.
Only
after thoroughly considering these factors and undergoing a meticulous
diagnostic process regarding each individual's health status and skin or
physical condition can the procedure be performed safely
and effectively.
Therefore, it is essential to have a professional evaluation
and a customized plan established beforehand
, rather than simply proceeding with
the procedure.
At Hongdae Dermatology Mind, our
board-certified dermatologists comprehensively consider each individual's age,
skin condition, facial bone structure, and facial contours to customize a lifting
treatment perfectly suited to your current face.
Our clinic offers a variety of laser lifting and
anti-aging treatments
, proposing
the wisest procedure for each individual. We invite you to
visit us with confidence 🙂
