Hello.

Improving the essence of skin with care,

Medical Director of Mind Dermatology,

Hongseon Lee, a dermatologist with 17 years of experience.

​

​

"My face seems a bit sagging compared to before..."

"I'm thinking of trying Ulthera."

​

"People say Ulthera is good,

but I'm not sure if it's a procedure I need."

​

​

When consulting about lifting at Yeonnam-dong Dermatology, we often hear comments like these.

​

​

​

At first, they often visit because their jawline just seems to have become less defined,

​

​

but when you look closely at the faceyou often need to consider not only skin elasticity but also the position and volume of fat and the skin thickness in each area.

​

​

Even a similar-looking sagging can require different approaches depending on the cause.

​

​

Today,I'll talk about how Ulthera works and what to check before the procedure.

​

​

For sagging facial lines, you should look at the cause first

​

Ultherais a lifting device that delivers ultrasound energy to the deep layers of the skin to help improve the elasticity of sagging tissues.

​

Unlike methods that only address the surface skin elasticity,it differs in that the treatment direction is determined by examining the deep structures of the face.

​

​

It is often considered by people who feel their jawline has softened or who notice a change in facial contour as the midface sags.

​

​

However, even when sagging appears similar,the causevaries from person to person.

​

​

If the skin has thinned and lost elasticity versus if the position of fat has shifted and made the facial line look heavier,the required treatments can differ.

​

​

​

What matters is not 'how much',

but 'what kind of change you want to make'.

​

When consulting about lifting, some people want to treat the entire face at once.

​

​

However, each facial area differs in skin thickness, fat volume, and degree of sagging,so applying the same energy uniformly is not always the best approach.

​

​

​

For example, if the jawline shows pronounced sagging while the central cheek still retains some volume,

​

​

rather than approaching the whole face by the same standard,it is important to assess the current facial balance and create changes as needed,this is important.

​

​

​

The timing of the procedure is as important as the results.

​

Aging doesn't suddenly occur all at once.

​

​

At first you may just feel your skin is less firm than before, and then at some point the jawline becomes less defined,

​

​

after which many people feel their overall facial balance has changed.

​

​

​

​

But starting lifting only after sagging becomes severe isn't necessary, nor is rushing in at the first slight change.

​

​

From the current skin condition,determine what changes are progressing,check,and decide which areas you want to manage going forward,then it's better to set the timing and direction of the procedure accordingly.

​

You should also consider post-procedure changes.

​

When considering lifting, it's easy to focus first on how much lifting occurs immediately after the procedure, but I tend to look at the subsequent changes as well.

​

​

It's necessary to check the current skin and facial line condition and adjust the management direction.

​

​

​

​

Rather than judging all changes from a single procedure,continuing with the next treatments according to skin changesis more important in this long-term management.

​

​

When you consult about Ulthera at Yeonnam-dong Dermatology Clinic, rather than comparing only devices or shot counts,

​

​

Currently on my facewhat changes are appearing, and how you want to look after UltheraI hope you check whether this is a place where you can start the conversation from.

​

​

​

I will treat you sincerely.

Representative Director, Mind Dermatology

Hongseon Lee.
