Hello.
Improving the essence of the skin with sincerity,
I am Hongseon Lee, Medical Director of Mind Dermatology.
“I had Ulthera, but I didn't see much change.”
“I paid a lot for it, but honestly I'm not sure it helped.”
“It was just painful—could it be ineffective?”
When consulting about Ulthera at Gongdeok Station, we hear these comments more often than expected.
Ulthera is clearly a good procedure, so why are some people satisfied while others are disappointed?
Today I'll explain the reason a bit more realistically and calmly.
How does Ulthera work as a procedure?
Ulthera is a procedure that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to deliver energy into the deeper layers of the skin.
The skin is not just the visible surface layer; beneath it there is a structural support system that maintains elasticity.

A feature of the Ulthera at Gongdeok Station is that it can directly stimulate the deep elastic layers of the skin.
In this process, as lax tissue is tightened, the facial contours become more defined,
and over time collagen regeneration occurs, leading to gradual improvement in elasticity.

However, the important point"that it is delivered deeply"is not the point itself,
but rather where, at what depth, and how that energy is distributed.
This part must be precisely planned to achieve a natural-looking improvement without overcorrection.
1. Cartridge selection is more important than you might think
Ulthera at Gongdeok Station uses different cartridges depending on the depth of the skin.

Why this matters is becauseif you stimulate deep layers when the skin is thin, unwanted changes such as cheek hollowing can occur,
whereas if the skin is thick and only the superficial layers are stimulated, the effect may feel insufficient.

So rather than simply deciding whether to proceed with the procedure,
we first assess skin thickness, fat distribution, and elastic status, then determine which depths to target and how to combine cartridges.
If this process is not adequately performed, results can vary significantly even with the same Ulthera at Gongdeok Station.
2. More important than the number of shots is the 'distribution'
"How many shots will be used?"
We get this question very often.

Of course the number of shots itself is important, but what's actually more important is"Where that shot is delivered"Thank you.
For example, if your concern is sagging along the jawline or under the cheeks, delivering the treatment uniformly across the entire face may leave insufficient energy in the areas that actually need it.
If there is left-right asymmetry, a treatment plan that concentrates a bit more on one side may be necessary.
These aspects should not be handled in a fixed, one-size-fits-all way,but should be designed while directly observing the facial structure to achieve natural results.
3. There are cases where Ulthera is not suitable
One more important point.

Ulthera is a good procedure, but it is not the right choice for everyone.
If the skin is very thin or there is little subcutaneous fat, radiofrequency (RF) treatments may be more appropriate,
and if volume loss is the main concern, approaches other than lifting may be required first.

Also, if you have a recent history of procedures, timing the next treatment may be more important.
So rather than recommending Ulthera unconditionally,we place importance on first determining whether this procedure is appropriate for your current condition.
Gongdeok Station Ulthera is not a treatment that gets better the more often it is done, nor does doing it more intensely make the results last longer.

Approaching the necessary areas, in the needed amount, and at an appropriate depth leads to naturally improved outcomes.
If you were considering Ulthera, take a moment to calmly confirm which direction best suits your current facial condition.
I will provide care with sincerity.
