​Important considerations before undergoing a lifting procedure

Lifting procedures extend their effects beyond just skin collagen. They also influence retaining ligaments, the layer next to subcutaneous fat, and the dermis above the SMAS layer.

These procedures are designed to bring about tangible changes in facial contours.

Without a precise treatment plan, issues like facial asymmetry, an unnatural pulled look, or skin indentations might arise.

However, a meticulous design approach can lead to more natural-looking facial improvements and a lasting lifted feel.

1) Pre-procedure 'seated design' is a crucial step.

A lifting procedure's design cannot be accurately performed with the patient lying flat.

When the effects of gravity are absent, the true extent and direction of skin laxity are obscured.

This makes precise identification of reference points and vector planning challenging.

Only by performing the design process while the patient is in a seated position

the precise area of cheek descent

the way the jawline has lost its definition

as well as the most effective lifting vectors

can be precisely determined, minimizing potential errors.

For all lifting procedures, the targeted areas are

consistently and carefully designed while the patient is seated, prior to beginning the treatment.

This initial step is crucial for establishing the foundation for satisfactory lifting outcomes.

2) Confirming results after the procedure with a 'Lifting Card'.

The effectiveness of a lifting procedure is influenced by the precise target area, the specific tip utilized, and the amount of energy delivered in terms of shot count.

Despite this, treatments are frequently finished without detailed documentation,

consequently, patients often lack clear information about the specific treatment plan they received.

A dedicated Lifting Card

serves to meticulously document and share all specific design details implemented during the treatment session.

This card contains details such as

the specific areas treated

the depth settings of the applicator tip

the total shot count applied

along with the vectors indicating the lifting direction

,

allowing one to directly review the treatment strategy and assess how it aimed to meet the desired aesthetic outcomes.

Understanding the shot standards (300 / 600 / 900) for HIFU devices like Ultherapy, Shurink, Liftera, and V-RO: What's the reason for these divisions?

Lifting treatments employing HIFU technology, including devices like Ultherapy, Shurink, Liftera, and V-RO,

are designed to precisely transmit ultrasound energy to targeted depths within the skin, aiming to initiate internal lifting responses.

Then, what defines these standardized shot counts?

1) 300 shots: A foundational shot count for initiating expected effects.

For HIFU lifting procedures, a count of 300 shots typically signifies

the lowest accumulated energy needed to stimulate the collagen and ligament structures.

Thus, it can be viewed as the initial phase where the physiological processes for enhancing facial shape begin to be generated.

If fewer shots are administered, achieving an even distribution of lifting signals across the entire skin structure becomes challenging, which implies,

울쎄라, 슈링크, 리프테라, 브이로 등 하이푸 리프팅 시술의 시작점은 300샷으로 볼 수 있습니다.

2) 600샷: 변화를 기대하는 기준점

600샷 시술은 다음과 같은 과정을 포함합니다.

SMAS층의 즉각적인 수축 유도

HSP 증가를 통한 콜라겐 합성 신호 활성화

수 주간에 걸쳐 이루어지는 콜라겐 리모델링

이러한 단계들이균일하고 안정적으로 진행되도록 하는 샷 수가 600샷입니다.

따라서 600샷은

리프팅 효과를 기대할 수 있는 기본적인 권장 샷 수라고 설명해 드립니다.

3) 900샷: 더욱 강한 탄력과 라인 개선을 원할 때 권장되는 상위 단계

900샷 시술은600샷의 기준을 충족한 후, 추가적인 효과를 얻을 수 있도록 확장된 범위입니다.

좀 더 뚜렷한 얼굴 라인 정리

처짐이 심한 부위의 보강

인대층에 대한 집중적인 자극 강화

이러한 경우에적절히 적용하여 더 높은 수준의 결과를 추구할 수 있습니다.

4) 900샷 이상도 가능할까요?

물론입니다.

더 많은 효과를 기대하신다면 900샷에서 1200샷까지 늘려 진행할 수 있으며,특히

900샷 시술 완료 후300샷을 추가하여 보강하는 방식은누적 에너지 관점에서

효과를 더욱 확장시키는 현실적인 접근이 될 수 있습니다.
