Personalized Lifting and Elasticity Management Consultation

Why is consultation important?

When choosing a lifting procedure,

the information you often first look into

is usually about 'Shrink 300 shots price' or 'Oligio procedure cost'.

However, lifting procedures are a field that is difficult to decide on based solely on the number of shots or the name of the device.

This is because each individual's facial structure and the progression of aging are different.

“The causes of sagging skin vary for each person.”

Some people notice sagging cheeks,

while others may feel their jawline has become less defined.

Also, hollowed areas around the eyes or below the cheekbones can give an impression of fatigue.

These changes are not solely due to decreased skin elasticity,

but rather a complex phenomenon involving changes in the underlying dermal layer, fat layer, and fascial layer (SMAS),

as well as changes in the facial bones.

Therefore, even with the same lifting procedure, a customized 'design' must be created for each individual.

Let's look at a few examples.

If your jawline is less defined and you're concerned about a double chin,

→ This can be seen not merely as a skin issue, but rather as a weakening of the underlying supportive layer (SMAS layer).

In such cases, ultrasound lifting that delivers energy deep into the skin

(e.g., Shrink, Ulthera) can be helpful.

What if the area below your cheekbones is hollowed and your entire face appears to sag?

→ It's common for the fat layer to descend due to reduced elasticity within the skin.

In this case, thread lifting or high-frequency lifting that acts on the dermal layer (e.g., InMode, Forma) can be considered.

If your entire face appears swollen and your contours are not clear,

→ this is often associated with edema or impaired lymphatic circulation.

In such cases, lifting procedures focused on improving the fat layer and lymphatic circulation, such as Onda lifting, can be beneficial.

What about fine wrinkles around the eyes or eyebrow sagging?

→ Since the skin in this area is thin, delicate lifting is more important than excessive stimulation.

You might consider high-frequency lifting procedures like Shrink using a 1.5mm tip, or Oligio.

“How many shots” is far less important than “which area, and in what manner.”

Even if two people receive the same Shrink 300-shot procedure,

one might experience significant improvement,

while another might not feel much change.

The reason is simple.

This is because the results vary depending on which area, to what depth, and with how much energy the treatment was applied.

Lifting procedures go beyond simply operating equipment;

they require the 'skill' of accurately understanding an individual's face and creating a customized plan.

Therefore, at our clinic, we “start with individual design” before any procedure.

At our clinic, we do not view lifting procedures as just a single process.

We meticulously analyze each patient's unique facial structure,

and after accurately identifying which skin layer is causing their current concerns,

We carefully plan the appropriate equipment, treatment method, number of shots, and treatment depth according to each individual's condition.

For instance, even with the same Shurink treatment, 200 shots might be sufficient for a particular patient,

while another might require 400 shots.

In some cases, thread lifting might be a more suitable option than Shurink.

Everyone's face has unique characteristics.

Therefore, a personalized plan is crucial for lifting treatments as well.

From the medical staff's perspective, using a predetermined number of shots with a specific device might seem convenient.

However, for patients,

it's more important to understand what their facial concerns are and how those concerns can be addressed.

Lifting isn't merely about relying on a fixed number of treatment shots;

it begins with a deep understanding of each patient's unique facial characteristics through diagnosis.

At Kkeuthan Clinic, we don't confine ourselves to specific procedure names,

but rather create a lifting plan centered around the condition of the patient's face.

Please don't feel burdened by the consultation process.

Regarding the current state of your face and what improvement directions are suitable,

we can discuss it in depth with you.
