Ulthera
What kind of results can I expect?
Ulthera is a non-invasive ultrasound laser treatment that targets and reduces unnecessary fat cells in the myofascial layer while simultaneously stimulating collagen production. The treatment helps achieve an even and lifted face line, and improves the elasticity of the skin surface, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
What is the procedure like?
Before the procedure, we apply a numbing cream to minimize any potential discomfort. During the procedure, we use an ultrasound screen to check the skin barrier and ensure the energy is being transferred to the intended area. This safe and painless process takes around 60-9- minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Is there any downtime?
Minor redness may occur after the procedure, but it usually fades within a day or two. You can resume your daily activities immediately after the treatment.
How long will the results last?
The results are long-lasting and can last anywhere from 6 months to 1 year, depending on your individual skin aging process.
What is the recommended age for Ulthera treatment?
Ulthera treatment is recommended for individuals who are over the age of 30 and are concerned about sagging skin, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity. However, the treatment can be customized to meet the specific needs of each individual, and a consultation with a qualified professional can help determine if Ulthera is appropriate for you.
How often should I get the procedure?
Since the effect of Ulthera lasts a long time, we recommend getting the procedure once or twice a year to maintain the results and continue improving the appearance of your skin. In addition to the treatment itself, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and a good skincare routine can also help prolong the results.
How does it hurt?
Pain levels vary depending on the person. After the lifting laser procedure, redness may last for 1-2 days, and swelling could last up to a week if it is severe. However, this varies from person to person, and some individuals may not experience any redness or swelling at all. You may experience some stiffness and warmth during the procedure, but it should be tolerable. We also use numbing cream to minimize discomfort during the procedure.
Potenza
What is Potenza microneedling laser treatment?
Potenza is a microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) treatment that is used to improve the appearance of enlarged pores, scars, and fine lines. It works by triggering the skin's natural healing process.
What kind of effects?
Potenza treatment can improve the texture and firmness of the skin, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, scars, and enlarged pores. It can also stimulate collagen production, leading to a more youthful appearance.
Recommended sessions & the downtime?
The number of treatments needed depends on individual skin conditions and goals, but typically 3-4 treatments are recommended. There is minimal downtime, with some mild redness and swelling that usually subsides within a few days.
What are the precautions to take afterwards?
After treatment, it is important to avoid direct exposure to sunlight and use SPF 30+ sunscreen. Avoid excessive sweating, hot showers, and saunas for the first 24 hours. It is also recommended to avoid applying makeup for 24 hours after treatment.
How does Potenza treatment work?
Potenza treatment works by delivering RF energy into the deeper layers of the skin via microneedles. This stimulates collagen production and triggers the skin's natural healing process, leading to improved texture, firmness, and reduction in the appearance of fine lines, scars, and enlarged pores.
Thermage
What is Thermage?
Thermage is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses radio frequency technology to heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin.
What areas can be treated with Thermage?
Thermage radio frequency laser treatment can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, arms, abdomen, thighs, and buttocks.
How long does it take?
Thermage radio frequency laser treatment session typically takes 30 minutes to two hours, depending on the size and number of areas being treated.
Is it painful?
Most patients report feeling a heating sensation during the procedure, but discomfort is typically minimal. Some may experience slight swelling, redness, or bruising in the treated area, but these side effects generally go away within a few days.
Recommended sessions to see results?
Many patients see results after just one session, but some may require multiple sessions for optimal results. Your doctor can help determine the best treatment plan for you.
InMode
What is Inmode Forma?
Inmode Forma lifts the skin, but may not be enough to lift the double chin or upper eyelid area on its own. It is recommended to use Inmode FX or Air Jet in combination. However, we recommend visiting us for a consultation to make a decision.
What is the difference between Forma and FX?
Forma regenerates collagen by delivering strong thermal energy to the skin layer with radiofrequency, while FX reduces the fat layer. To use an analogy, FX is like deflating a balloon to reduce its size, while Forma is like re-flattening a deflated, crumpled balloon.
What if I don't have facial fat?
If you are undergoing Inmode Jet (In-mode + Air Jet), but you don't have facial fat, you can use FX alone for the jawline or double chin, or proceed only with Forma without FX. If you don't have facial fat or a double chin, it would be cheaper to choose Forma alone and the Air Jet exclusive event! If you proceed with this event, you will receive about 25 to 30 minutes of Forma, which is similar in energy to 300 shots of Thermage or Oligio.
For people who don't wish to lose fat, we recommend Inmode FORMA. By delivering a large amount of radiofrequency energy to the face, it can induce skin collagen regeneration and improve elasticity. Many people worry about losing fat or volume while going on HIFU procedures, but there's no need to worry.
Does the procedure require anesthesia?
Unfortunately, the Inmode equipment manual prohibits the use of anesthetic ointment due to the risk of pain and burns when in contact with water. For your safety, we do not use anesthetic ointment. To reduce bruising or pain and maintain the effect, we adjust the setting value in the middle when performing the procedure.
What is the treatment time for In-mode and Double Power In-mode?
In-mode FX treatment takes 10 to 15 minutes, and if you proceed with Forma, which is considered the second stage, it will take about 10 more minutes. The procedure takes about 30 minutes, although more FX or more Forma can be done depending on the patient's face shape. In the case of Forma, an additional 20 minutes are added.
The following is a general framework for the treatment time of each procedure, but there may be slight differences depending on the patient's face:
- In-mode FX or Forma 1 mode: about 15 minutes
- In-mode FX + Forma 2 modes: about 30 minutes
- Around 25 minutes per mode of Double Power Inmode FX or Forma
- About 50 minutes for 2 modes of Double Power Inmode FX + Forma
A high temperature is a crucial procedure in In-mode FX. It only takes about 2 minutes to raise the skin temperature above 40 degrees, so the longer the time after 2 minutes, the better the effect.
What is the treatment time for FX+ Forma?
The following is a general framework for the treatment time of each procedure, but there may be slight differences depending on the patient's face:
- Around 15 minutes for FX + bruise regeneration management within 15 minutes
- Double Power Inmode FX: around 25 minutes + bruise recovery management within 15 minutes
- For external mode FX, a high temperature is a crucial procedure. It only takes about 2 minutes to raise the skin temperature above 40 degrees, so the longer the time after 2 minutes, the better the effect.
Fillers
How much swelling should I expect after the procedure?
Swelling can vary from person to person and usually subsides within 1-2 weeks.
How long will the filler last?
The duration of the filler depends on the area of the face or body it is injected into. Typically, it lasts between 6 months to 2 years, but it can vary.
Is there any downtime after getting a filler injection?
Some temporary bumps or swelling may occur, which is normal. You can resume your daily activities immediately after the procedure. However, it is recommended to avoid drinking, smoking, and sauna for 2-3 days after the procedure. If you experience severe pain or color changes, seek medical attention immediately.
How common is filler migration?
Filler migration is rare and usually occurs due to improper injection technique or poor product quality. It is important to choose a qualified and experienced practitioner for your filler injection.
Can I get a filler injection while pregnant or breastfeeding?
It is not recommended to get a filler injection while pregnant or breastfeeding as the effects of the filler on the baby are not yet known. It is best to wait until after pregnancy or breastfeeding to get a filler injection.
Botox
Is Botox painful?
Botox injections are generally not painful. You may feel a slight pinch or a tingling sensation during the injection, but the discomfort is minimal and temporary.
How often should I get the procedure?
Botox results typically last between 3-4 months, but the duration may vary depending o the individual's condition. The frequency of the procedure will also depend on the patient's goals and needs. Some people may need touch-up injections every 3-4 months, while others can go up to 6 months between treatments.
Is there any downtime after receiving Botox?
While there is no downtime associated with Botox injections, you may experience some mild and temporary side effects. These may include redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. However, these side effects typically resolve within a few hours to a few days.
How long does it take to see the results of Botox?
While individual results may vary, most people start to see the effects of Botox within 3-7 days after the injection. However, it may take up to 2 weeks to see the full effects of the treatment. it is important to note that results may vary depending on the individual's condition, the area that is being treated and the amount of Botox used.
Juvelook Collagen Inducer
Is there any down time?
While there may be some bruises or injection marks that usually last for 2-3 days or longer, the procedure is non-invasive and doesn't require much downtime. The length of downtime varies depending on the individual's skin type or condition.
Is it effective even with just 1 session?
Side effects may include fine needle marks and small bruises. We will do our best to prevent them. It is recommended to avoid intense exercise, saunas, drinking, and smoking for a period of three days. Additionally, as there may be small puncture wounds from needles after the procedure, please be cautious of potential infections for 1-2 days. Rest assured that this is a safe procedure with no major side effects for this Collagen Inducer treatment.
Can wrinkles under the eyes be removed?
Yes, wrinkles under the eyes can be reduced. However, if the wrinkles are too close to the eyes, there is a risk of losing your natural wrinkles. we will explain the procedure in detail to ensure that the desired results are achieved. If you have excessive fat around the eyes, we recommend a fat redistribution surgery. Our head doctors will carefully examine the area and degree of fat before the procedure and determine if the surgery is necessary. It is best to have a consultation in person for an accurate assessment.
Is there a lot of swelling?
Swelling is not an undesirable appearance, but the ideal appearance that the patient wants. While there may be some initial swelling, it typically subsides shortly after. it takes about a month for the skin to fully recover, and typically three procedures are necessary to achieve the desired level of skin recovery.
How many sessions are required?
Typically, about three treatments are effective, but an additional one to two treatments may be necessary if there is a significant amount of fat. The results of the treatment should last for a significant amount of time, unless the amount of fat under the eyes increases and becomes thicker.
How often should it be done?
We suggest undergoing 2-3 collagen injections, with one session per month. It's possible to experience a 60%decrease in volume from what you initially see right after the procedure. However, you should start to feel the volume increase after about a month as it will take some time for your own collagen to start reproducing on its own. We recommend waiting until this point before scheduling your next session, in order to observe how much the volume has increased.
Does it hurt?
We use an anesthetic ointment to ensure your comfort during the procedure. For fat repositioning laser, we use local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. We carefully control the energy used during the procedure to minimize pain.
Is it possible to exercise and sweat on the same day of the procedure?
Avoid exercising and sweating, like going to Saunas or hot temperature places. Sweating during the treatment can increase the risk of infection. We recommend avoiding exercise or going to the sauna for at least 3-5 days after the treatment
Is it natural?
The amount of fat in each patient can affect the extent of skin stretching, resulting in wrinkles and dark circles. At our clinic, we offer collagen injections to address hollow areas under the eyes that contribute to wrinkles and dark circles. If the skin is excessively stretched, we can use fillers or collagen injections to restore its natural appearance.
Is it a filler?
Collagen injections induce the body to produce collagen through the use of an inducer, rather that injecting collagen itself. Collagen injections lose volume within a week after the procedure, and it takes time to see the results. Collagen injections are divided into three types based on the ingredients of the collagen inducer: PLLA- Sculptra, PLA- Juvederm, Esthelis, Etleve, PDO- Ultra Collagen Volume.
Is the effect permanent?
Collagen injections or fat redistribution procedures are not permanent. The duration of the effect varies depending on the patient's skincare and nutrition. Typically, after about three sessions, you can maintain the desired amount of volume and see results for 1-2 years. Lower eyelid surgery or under-eye fat removal surgery typically lasts 3-5 years and is much safer and gentler than other procedures. After about 3 procedures, you can maintain the desired amount of volume and the duration of the effect varies depending on the patient's skincare and nutrition, but you can typically see results lasting 1-2 years.
Glass Skin BundleRejuran Skin Booster
Can Rejuran be used around the eye area?
Yes, Rejuran is safe to use around the eye area. If you have concerns about the area under or the sides of your eyes, we can discuss treatment options that include Restylane Eye or collagen injections (Juvederm) under the eyes. Alternatively, Restylane can target that area while treating your entire face.
What is the difference between Hand Injection and Machines (Highcooks, Dermashine)?
Injections may cause patients to experience pain and foreign body sensations due to its large particles and strong viscosity during injection. Patients rate the pain level of Highcooks at about 3 to 5 points on a scale of 0 to 10. Although hand injection may be slightly more effective, the difference is not significant (no more than 2 to 3 times). The gap is about 10% or less. Personally, I recommend receiving two treatments with less effect rather than just one treatment if you cannot tolerate the pain. This way, you can receive more injection volume on your skin, and it can be a way to manage your treatment consistently.
What does the Glass skin package consist of?
The Glass skin package includes polynucleotide (PN) 2cc, Glass Skin Skinbooster 0.5cc, and Skin Botox 0.5cc, for a total of 3cc at a cost of 275,000.
What are the different types of Rejuran and Juvelook?
The different types of Rejuran are Rejuran Skin booster, and the different types of Juvelook are Juvelook Collagen Booster/inducer and Juvelook Skin booster.
What is the difference between Rejuran and Juvelook?
Rejuran and Juvelook are both brand names from South Korea. Rejuran is made from salmon DNA and is the collagen itself, but does not provide collagen volume. Juvelook is an ingredient that helps the skin to form and regenerate more collagen and provide volume. Rejuran skinbooster and Juvelook skinbooster are similar to each other in that they both help with anti-aging but do not provide volume. However, Juvelook Collagen booster is a collagen inducer that provides volume to areas of the skin that lack collagen, such as under the eyes and deep wrinkles.
What is the downtime for Rejuran?
The downtime for Rejuran is minimal. Patients may experience some redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site, but typically can resume normal activities immediately following treatment. Any side effects usually resolve within a few days.
Rejuran skin booster is a good treatment option because it has multiple benefits for the skin. It can improve skin elasticity and thickness, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, boost collagen production, and improve skin hydration and radiance. Additionally, it can reduce inflammation and pigmentation and is effective in treating acne scars and improving overall skin texture. With minimal downtime and few side effects, Rejuran is a safe and effective option for those looking to improve the health and appearance of their skin.
DCA Fat Dissolving Injections
Does it contain steroids?
The V-line contour injection does not contain steroids. It is composed of ingredients that aid in fat metabolism, fat breakdown, and skin regeneration. It is a high-concentration contour injection that does not mix unnecessary saline solution to create the appearance of a greater volume. I hope this answers your question.
What are the ingredients in body fat dissolving injections?
There are two main types of fat-dissolving injections:
- Contouring injections, Acu-injections, Fat-dissolving injections, etc., which use high concentrations of ingredients that help break down or metabolize fat.
- Injections with the letters HPL/MPL or PL, which usually contain large amounts of ingredients and attack fat using hydraulic pressure. These injections also include fat-metabolizing and dissolving ingredients.
The ingredients used in these injections vary between hospitals, as they are researched and tested by the hospital's own doctors. Our hospital, for example, combines not only fat-dissolving and fat-metabolizing ingredients, but also vitamins for skin recovery. While fat destruction is important, improving skin elasticity is also crucial for achieving greater satisfaction.
What is DCA fat destroyer?
DCA fat destroyer is an injectable treatment that is used to dissolve and destroy fat cells in targeted areas of the body. It is composed of deoxycholic acid, which helps shrink and destroy fat cells by causing an anti-inflammatory response in the treated area, promoting blood circulation, decreasing cellulite, and improving elasticity.
How does DCA fat destroyer work?

Lala Peel
Is there any downtime?
The LaLa Peel Facial treatment uses LHA ingredients and alkaline lipid membranes to dissolve protein and penetrate the skin deeply with active ingredients, stabilizing the skin, improving skin elasticity and texture, and making the skin healthier. Unlike traditional skin peeling procedures, there is no downtime, and you can immediately resume your daily activities.
Is the product suitable for sensitive skin?
The LaLa Peel procedure is recommended for individuals with sensitive skin, as it does not cause any discomfort unlike traditional peeling treatments. This procedure is painless and comfortable during and after the process, making it easy for you to have the procedure done.
How long does the maintenance period last?
The duration of the LaLa Peel's effect may vary depending on the patient's skin type and management. Typically, you can expect to see the effect for about 1-2 weeks. Consistent maintenance of a healthy skincare routine can result in a longer maintenance period. With just one treatment of Lala Peel, your skin can become much smoother, and you can notice an improvement in the adherence of makeup from the next day. Lala Peel is a safe treatment, even for those with sensitive skin. If you receive 3 or more treatments, at a one-week interval, you can expect a natural glow on your skin due to increased moisture and stable sebum secretion, which can result in healthier and more resilient skin.
Does it hurt?
Lala peel is a non-stimulating procedure, meaning that you won't feel any pain during the treatment. Even if you have sensitive skin or severe skin issues, you can receive the treatment without any discomfort, making it a procedure you don't have to worry about in terms of pain or side effects.
Is it effective for acne/nodular pimples/oily skin?
Lala peel eliminates sebum and dead skin cells within the pores, reduces pore size, and normalizes sebum secretion, resulting in good effects for acne-prone skin. However, our clinic recommends various treatments depending on the state and location of the acne. In the case of nodular pimples, it often progresses to pus-filled acne. Therefore, we recommend getting additional personalized treatments such as pimple reduction injection therapy, acne medication prescription, FCR, or gold PTT treatment. We advise visiting our clinic for a consultation before treatment.
