Hello,

This is Timeless Mapo Main Clinic,

where we create healthy beauty together.

When skin elasticity starts to decline, the procedure you probably search for first is "Ulthera."

Because it is so well known as a signature lifting procedure,

many people think, "Should I try it too?" but hesitate because of concerns about cost, pain, or side effects.

In fact, many of the patients who come to our clinic share similar concerns.

So today, for those considering Ulthera,

we would like to carefully organize only the key points we hope you know before deciding on the procedure.

Please read comfortably, from the effects to the honest discussion of side effects.

1. What exactly is the principle behind Ulthera?

The core of Ulthera is a regenerative stimulus that helps the skin revive on its own.

It delivers powerful 60-70 degree ultrasound energy deep into the skin's SMAS layer (the fascial layer), creating tiny thermal coagulation points.

As the tissue receiving this heat stimulation goes through the natural healing process, collagen and elastin become firmer and denser.

And, we should also honestly talk about the "pain" that many people fear the most.

It would be a lie to say it doesn't hurt at all, but if a numbing cream is applied thoroughly and sufficiently before the procedure, most people can tolerate it without major difficulty.

Some people are so nervous that they request sleep anesthesia, but

at our Timeless Mapo Main Clinic, we do not particularly recommend it.

That is because, during the procedure, we need to monitor the patient's subtle facial expressions and muscle movements in real time

and proceed while communicating with them for a much more precise and safe treatment.

2. So when does it work, and how long does it last?

The reason Ulthera has been loved for so long is its "natural improvement in sagging."

Rather than filling something in, it enhances your skin's own elasticity to smoothly refine the blurred jawline, sagging cheeks, and double chin.

Since this is a procedure that regenerates collagen within the skin, the way its effects appear over time is also natural.

Immediately after the procedure: You may feel the skin becoming firmer due to immediate collagen contraction.

2-3 weeks after the procedure: As collagen begins to regenerate in earnest, the facial line is naturally lifted.

You can expect the face contour to become more naturally refined as time passes, compared with right after the procedure.

3. Are there concerns about side effects (such as cheek hollowing)?

If you have searched for Ulthera, you may have been startled by reviews mentioning "cheek hollowing" or a "peanut-shaped face."

There are also people who say they saw no effect at all after the procedure.

The reason these issues occur is clear.

Cheek hollowing happens when too much energy is delivered or when it is applied incorrectly to a thin area, while no effect means the energy did not reach the correct target layer.

In the end, it is not a problem with the device, but a matter of how well it was designed to fit your face.

The thickness of fat varies by area on the face.

The jawline has thicker tissue and requires stronger energy,

but the central cheeks and the eye area have thinner skin, so using the same intensity increases the risk of indentation or burns.

That is why Ulthera has three types of tips: 1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm.

The tips must be changed as needed to match the thickness of each area,

and the energy strength and number of shots must be carefully customized to achieve a smooth line without side effects.

Because such a delicate process is required,

at our Timeless Mapo Main Clinic, we allocate ample time from the consultation and skin assessment stages before the procedure.

That is because only when the medical staff personally examines and carefully checks by hand can we lower the risk of side effects and perform the procedure safely.

That concludes the content prepared for today.

We hope this article was of some help to those considering Ulthera.

For results you can be satisfied with even after time passes,

we will continue with only the care that is truly necessary.
