Ulsan Lift Therapy, if your cheeks are sagging, could it be worth considering before a thread lift?

    15

Hello. This is Arte Clinic Ulsan (Department: Dermatology).


When consulting about lifting, I often receive these questions.


"My cheek fat is starting to sag, should I consider thread lifting?"

"I'm hesitant about surgery or threads; is there a natural way to manage this?"


Many people think that a strong lifting procedure is necessary as soon as they start to feel sagging.

However, if it is an early stage of decreased skin elasticity, it may be more important to choose equipment that matches the skin condition and the degree of sagging.


Today, I will discuss the most frequently asked questions by those considering Liftera.

1. What kind of lifting is Liftera?

2. Who often seeks consultations?

3. How is it different from thread lifting?

4. There are cases where Liftera alone may not be sufficient.




1. What kind of lifting is Liftera?

Liftera is a non-invasive lifting device that uses High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to deliver energy to a specific depth within the skin.


It is utilized by delivering thermal stimulation to the tissue beneath the skin without incisions or threads, and it is often sought for improving skin elasticity and managing facial contours.


The treatment plan may vary depending on skin thickness, degree of sagging, and the areas of concern.



2. What kind of people often seek consultations?

In actual consultations, many people come in with the following concerns.


✔ It seems like my jawline has become less defined than before.

✔ My cheeks are sagging, making my face look larger.

✔ I feel like my nasolabial folds are getting deeper.

✔ I prefer natural changes over strong treatments.

✔ I am looking for a lifting procedure with a short recovery time.


Many people consider consultations when they want to manage skin elasticity in the early stages, where sagging is not severe.



3. How is it different from Silhouette lifting?

"Which is more effective, Lifttera or Silhouette lifting?"

This is one of the most frequently asked questions in the clinic.


However, the two procedures may not be in competition but rather have different target applications.


Lift therapy is often considered for managing skin elasticity decline and early sagging, while thread lifting may be planned as a method to physically support and elevate sagging tissues.


Therefore, the appropriate treatment direction may vary depending on the degree of sagging and skin condition, and individuals may consider both methods together.



4. There may be cases where lift therapy alone is insufficient.


Just because the face appears sagging does not mean it is solely a problem of skin elasticity.

There may be cases where volume loss is the cause, and changes in fat distribution or retaining ligaments may also have an impact.


In such cases, rather than repeatedly using lifting equipment alone, considering other treatments such as fillers or collagen-stimulating procedures may help achieve more natural results.


The important thing is to first identify the cause of why the face has changed.


5. Important points for natural lifting


Many people think that the stronger the output, the greater the lifting effect will be.

However, excessive energy delivery that does not consider the skin condition does not always lead to good results.


During consultations, I check the skin thickness, fat amount, direction of sagging, facial proportions, etc., and then explain the appropriate treatment range and energy plan for each individual.


Rather than simply pulling strongly, aiming to improve elasticity naturally while maintaining the inherent balance of the face often leads to higher satisfaction.



Today, I explored the characteristics of Lifting Therapy and suitable candidates for those considering it.


It is more important to establish a treatment plan that matches the current skin condition and the causes of sagging than to determine which equipment is the best for lifting.


I hope you accurately assess your skin condition through sufficient consultation and choose the lifting method that suits you.


I hope this article has been helpful for those contemplating Lifting Therapy.
