LIFT & CONTOUR

Q: How do Ultherapy Prime and Sofwave differ?

Both devices use ultrasound but generally target different depths and goals. Ultherapy Prime uses real-time imaging to consider multiple depths; Sofwave mainly addresses fine lines and skin firmness in the dermis at about 1.5mm.

Q: What is the difference between ultrasound and radiofrequency lifting?

Ultrasound and radiofrequency deliver energy differently. The choice depends on your skin and goals rather than one method being universally better.

Q: Can I have lifting treatment if I have little facial fat?

Suitability varies by person. If you have little facial fat or hollow areas, it is important to distinguish areas where volume should be preserved from those needing tightening.

Q: Can I have lifting and filler together?

A combined plan may be possible if needed. Whether to treat on the same day or leave an interval, and which treatment comes first, depend on the area, device, filler type, and skin condition.

Q: Are multiple device treatments more effective together?

Treatments may address different depths and concerns, but using more devices is not always better. We avoid unnecessary overlap and choose only the combination your face needs now.

Q: Can I return to daily activities right after treatment?

Nonsurgical lifting may allow a relatively quick return to daily activities, but redness, swelling, warmth, tenderness, or bruising may occur. Consult in advance if you have an important event.

Q: Please explain precautions before and after treatment

Tell your clinician if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; have an implanted electronic device or metal implant, dermatitis, infection, or wound; take medication that may affect bleeding; or recently had lifting, filler, or surgery. After treatment, follow the clinic's instructions. Avoid strongly pressing or rubbing the area, and limit strenuous exercise, heavy drinking, and saunas as directed. Temporary redness, warmth, tenderness, or bruising can occur. Contact the clinic immediately if you develop severe pain, skin color changes, blisters, altered sensation, or vision changes.

Nature does not rush, yet eventually blooms at its most beautiful.

Onsil lifting helps your natural beauty emerge rather than quickly creating a different face.

Personalized lifting and contour treatments that consider skin layers and facial structure

Facial contours change for more reasons than sagging skin alone. The appropriate method depends on skin thickness and firmness, the position of fat and volume, bone structure, and the depth of sagging. Through 3D skin and facial analysis and a 1:1 consultation with Medical Director Dr. Ji-seon Kim, Onsil Clinic identifies where to lift and where to preserve balance, then plans a natural change that harmonizes with your features.

If these concerns sound familiar, consider a lifting and contour consultation

Before choosing a device, identify which areas need lifting, which areas need their volume preserved, and the change you want.

CASE 01
When the jawline and facial contours appear less defined and sagging of the cheeks or around the mouth is a concern
CASE 02
When thinning skin brings both fine lines and reduced firmness
CASE 03
When you are concerned about a double chin, heavy lower face, or hollow areas
CASE 04
When you have little facial fat and want a natural improvement without hollow cheeks

Why lifting needs differ from face to face

Even at the same age, skin thickness, fat volume, bone structure, and the location and depth of sagging vary.
Ultrasound is used for lifting at a target depth, radiofrequency for firmness and tightening through heat within the skin, and filler to restore lost volume and improve contours.
We first assess the depth and scope of energy needed and volume balance rather than choose a famous device or many procedures.

Onsil Clinic starts by understanding your face

01
3D skin and facial analysis

The EveMuse 3D skin analyzer records skin condition, facial angles and proportions, volume, and left-right differences. We use its findings to support clinical examination and consultation.
02
1:1 consultation with Medical Director Dr. Ji-seon Kim

We examine skin thickness, bone structure, fat and volume distribution, and facial movement, then discuss changes you want or wish to avoid, previous treatments, and recovery time.
03
Treatment plans tailored to each skin layer

We distinguish areas to lift from areas to protect, then plan the needed methods and sequence among ultrasound, radiofrequency, tightening, and filler. If one treatment is sufficient, we do not add unnecessary procedures.

What makes Onsil Clinic's lifting different

Through 3D skin and facial analysis and direct clinical examination, we look at the balance of skin, bone structure, fat, and volume.
We discuss the changes you want and the features you wish to retain, then plan the device, areas, and sequence in a 1:1 consultation.
Rather than repeat lifting alone, we distinguish hollow from sagging areas and consider the natural balance of the whole face.
Rather than recommend several devices uniformly, we select treatments suited to your face and explain both potential changes and limitations.

What to check before treatment

Please tell your clinician before treatment

Tell your clinician if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have an infection or inflammation in the area, have a history of hypersensitivity to specific ingredients or human-derived tissue, or have an immune-related condition or take medication that increases bleeding risk.
Symptoms requiring immediate contact

If you develop unusual symptoms such as severe pain, skin color changes, rapidly spreading swelling or fever, or vision changes, contact a medical institution immediately for care.
