Non-Surgical Lifting

Ultrasound-Mapped Non-Surgical Lifting

At V Clinic Gangnam, non-surgical lifting is never performed as a standardized, assembly-line shot count. Every procedure begins with quantitative Scana ultrasound skin diagnostics to measure dermal thickness, subcutaneous tissue distribution, and SMAS fascia depth before a 1:1 consultation with our medical directors.

Five Authentic Lifting Platforms

We combine five globally recognized energy modalities to target each anatomical layer with clinical precision:

1. Ultherapy PRIME (Merz Aesthetics)
   • Modality: Real-time ultrasound-visualized micro-focused ultrasound (MFU-V).
   • Target Depth: 1.5mm superficial dermis, 3.0mm deep dermis, and 4.5mm SMAS fibromuscular layer.
   • Clinical Role: Deep structural brow, submental, jawline, and lower-face lifting with live tissue visualization.
2. Thermage-FLX (Solta Medical)
   • Modality: Monopolar capacitively coupled radiofrequency (RF) with AccuREP™ impedance tuning.
   • Target Depth: Volumetric heating across the collagen-rich dermis and fibrous septae.
   • Clinical Role: Skin tightening, pore and texture refinement, and periorbital or full-face elasticity restoration.
3. ONDA (DEKA)
   • Modality: 2.45 GHz Coolwaves® selective microwave technology with integrated contact cooling.
   • Target Depth: Subdermal adipose and dermal collagen layers.
   • Clinical Role: Lower-face contouring, double-chin refinement, and subdermal tightening while protecting the epidermis.
4. Soprano Titanium (Alma)
   • Modality: Simultaneous triple-wavelength (755nm, 810nm, 1064nm) diode laser energy with ICE Plus™ cooling.
   • Target Depth: Superficial to deep dermal and retaining ligament zones.
   • Clinical Role: Immediate brightening, tightening, and facial sculpting with minimal social downtime.
5. Sofwave System (Sofwave Medical)
   • Modality: SUPERB™ (Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam) technology with Sofcool™ epidermal protection.
   • Target Depth: 1.5mm mid-dermis where collagen and elastin fibers are concentrated.
   • Clinical Role: Fine-line smoothing, mid-face laxity improvement, and eyebrow or neck lifting.

4-Step Private Suite Protocol

• Step 01 · Private Suite Check-In: Direct escort to a single-occupancy private room for cleansing and preparation.
• Step 02 · Scana Ultrasound Analysis: Precision mapping of facial layer depth and asymmetrical tension vectors.
• Step 03 · 1:1 Director Vector Design: Custom energy pairing and pain-control planning with on-site anesthesiology oversight.
• Step 04 · Targeted Energy Delivery & Soothing: Layer-by-layer treatment followed by private cooling and barrier care.

Safety, Recovery & Realistic Expectations

• Pain & Safety Management: Supervised by our on-site Director of Anesthesiology & Pain Management (Dr. Cheol-Hee Park) for comfortable, closely monitored care.
• Potential Side Effects: Temporary redness, mild swelling, tenderness along the jawline, or transient tingling may occur and typically resolve within several days. Individual results vary according to baseline skin laxity and physiological collagen remodeling.
