Why is consultation important?

When considering skin lifting procedures,

the information most people initially look for

will likely be ‘Shrink 300 shot price’ or ‘Oligio shot count cost,’ and similar inquiries.

However, lifting procedures are an area difficult to determine solely by the number of shots or equipment name.

This is because each individual has a different face shape and areas where aging progresses.

The causes of sagging vary from person to person.

Some may notice their cheek fat appearing to sag downwards,

while others might feel their jawline has become less defined.

Alternatively, some may get the impression of looking tired due to hollowness around the eyes or under the cheekbones.

These changes are not solely caused by a decrease in skin elasticity.

Layers beneath the skin, such as the dermis, fat layer, and fascia (SMAS),

are involved in complex patterns that even accompany changes in facial bones.

Therefore, even with the same lifting procedure, a customized 'design' is necessary for each individual.

Let me explain with a few examples.

What if your jawline is blurred and a double chin becomes prominent?

→ This might be due to the weakening of the SMAS layer, an internal supporting structure, rather than just a superficial skin issue.

In such cases, delivering energy to deeper areas

with ultrasound lifting (e.g., Shurink, Ulthera) can help with improvement.

What if the area under your cheekbones looks sunken and your whole face appears to sag?

→ This could mainly be a case where internal skin elasticity has decreased, leading to changes in the fat layer's flow.

In such cases, thread lifting or high-frequency lifting focused on stimulating the dermal layer (e.g., InMode, Forma) may be appropriate.

What if your face generally looks swollen and you feel your contours are not distinct?

→ There is a possibility that reduced lymphatic circulation and edema are the causes.

In this situation, lifting methods that support the fat layer and lymphatic circulation, such as Onda Lifting, may be considered.

Are you concerned about fine wrinkles around the eyes or sagging eyebrows?

→ Since the skin layer in this area is thin, a delicate and precise approach is more important than strong stimulation.

A 1.5mm shallow Shurink tip, or high-frequency lifting like Oligio, can be helpful.

'How many shots' is less important than 'which area, and how' the procedure is performed.

Even if two individuals received the same Shurink 300-shot procedure,

some may achieve satisfactory results,

while others might not feel a significant change.

The reason is clear.

This is because the treated area, application depth, and the intensity of energy used are all different.

Lifting procedures go beyond simply operating equipment;

it is an area where 'design capability' – meticulously analyzing an individual's face and creating a customized plan – is essential.

For these reasons, our clinic places great importance on 'personalized design' prior to any procedure.

At our clinic, we do not view lifting procedures as merely a 'process'.

First, we meticulously analyze the patient's facial structure,

to accurately determine which skin layer is the source of their current concerns.

We meticulously plan the appropriate equipment, treatment method, necessary shot count, and depth, tailored to your skin condition.

Therefore, even with the same Shurink treatment, 200 shots may be sufficient for some individuals.

On the other hand, some individuals may require around 400 shots.

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

Every person's face has individual characteristics.

That's why personalized design is crucial for lifting treatments as well.

It might feel easier for the medical staff to simply recommend a specific device and shot count.

However, for you as the patient,

it's more important to accurately understand your face's condition and know the appropriate improvement methods.

Lifting treatments, rather than being confined to a fixed number of shots,

we believe should begin with a personalized plan that deeply understands each patient's unique facial characteristics.

Our medical team, rather than focusing solely on specific treatment names,

proposes an individualized lifting plan centered around your face.

You are welcome to receive a consultation without any pressure.

Regarding your current skin condition and potential directions for improvement,

we can discuss it with you in depth.
