When do results show?
Gradually from 3–4 weeks, lasting up to about a year. If one session isn't enough, the clinic suggests 3 or more sessions 3–6 months apart.
What is the difference between Ultherapy and Thermage?
Ultherapy uses ultrasound on the SMAS layer for lifting; Thermage uses radio frequency on the dermis for tightening. They can be combined.
How is Ultherapy different from Shurink?
Same principle. Ultherapy is US FDA-cleared, lets the doctor see skin layers on screen and lasts longer, but hurts more, so numbing cream and painkillers are used. Shurink is a Korean device that lasts less and hurts less.
Will I get red or swollen?
Raised red welts can appear on curved areas such as the neck and jawline; they usually fade in 1–2 days, at most within a week.
Can I go back to my hotel or go shopping right after?
Yes. The clinic says normal activities can resume the same day. Treatment takes 30–90 minutes.
Other treatments
How long does Thermage take?
About 40–60 minutes of treatment; with numbing cream and consultation, about 1–1.5 hours.
Can I get Thermage in summer?
Yes. Thermage uses radio frequency, not light, so skin tone does not matter. Skin can be sensitive afterwards, so use sunscreen.

Yes. Healer 2 cc ₩250,000, HB 1 cc ₩380,000, Eye 1 cc ₩350,000, Premium 6 cc ₩850,000, stem-cell Rejuran 6 cc ₩1,000,000. Recovery 1–3 days; repeat every 2–3 weeks.
Is Rejuran the same as ordinary salmon injections (PDRN)?
According to the clinic, Rejuran has a much higher DNA concentration than ordinary PDRN.
How often is jaw botox repeated?
According to the clinic, a second session 3 months after the first and a third 6 months after the second can give a correction lasting 2 years or more.
Can I get HIFU or RF lifting after a thread lift?
Avoid it for 2 months. The clinic recommends doing HIFU or RF lifting first, then the thread lift.
