This is a procedure note for Finding Thermage FLX too pricey? Consider 'TenTherma', a cost-effective alternative. at Beomgye(Opening Soon) KKEUT Korean Clinic.
Many people postpone lifting procedures because the price of Thermage FLX is burdensome.
It's a situation where concerns about skin sagging or loss of elasticity persist, but a decision can't be made due to the price.

Thermage FLX is a lifting device that uniformly delivers monopolar radiofrequency energy to the dermis and subcutaneous fat layers.
It works by denaturing collagen fibers to create an immediate tightening effect, followed by the gradual increase in elasticity as new collagen is synthesized during the regeneration process.
It can be applied to a wide range of areas, including facial sagging, nasolabial folds, jawline, and loss of elasticity around the eyes.
As it has been used for a long time both domestically and internationally, it is also a device with extensive clinical data accumulated regarding its safety and effectiveness.
Since a wide area is treated in a grid pattern with a single tip, a comprehensive lifting effect can be observed even with just one session.

At this point, a procedure emerging as an alternative is Tenssermar.
Tenssermar is also an RF-based lifting device, and its principle of delivering thermal energy to the dermis to induce collagen regeneration is not significantly different from Thermage FLX.
It is often grouped with domestic RF lifting devices like Oligio and Volnewmer, and is highly regarded for its accessibility.
However, there are differences in output method, cartridge configuration, and treatment method, which result in relatively lower procedure costs.
This is why Tenssermar is mentioned as a cost-effective alternative for those who find the price of Thermage FLX burdensome.

Rather than simply comparing the two procedures by price, it is important to first consider the area of concern and the degree of sagging.
If skin sagging is severe and stimulation is needed for deeper layers, Thermage FLX's energy delivery capability is more advantageous.
On the other hand, for initial loss of elasticity, preventative purposes, or a first lifting procedure, starting with Tenssermar can yield sufficient satisfaction.
A price difference does not necessarily translate directly to a difference in effectiveness; the treatment area and design for each specific region have a greater impact on the results.

Lifting procedures are not a one-time concept; the number of sessions and cycles must be considered.
Generally, cumulative treatments at 1-month intervals are recommended, and the cycle may vary depending on the treatment intensity and individual skin condition.
On the day of the procedure, some redness or a slight warm sensation may remain, but it usually subsides within a short time.

After the procedure, sufficient moisturizing and sun protection are necessary, and activities that raise body heat, such as saunas or strenuous exercise, should be avoided for a day or two.
Cleansing and light makeup are generally possible without difficulty from the same day.
One common misunderstanding is the belief that immediate tightness on the day of the procedure indicates effectiveness, but collagen regeneration is a gradual process that unfolds over several weeks.

Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic's Unique Differentiated Procedure Know-how
Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic starts lifting procedures by first drawing a grid design in a seated position.
If performed while lying down, the position of sagging changes due to gravity. Therefore, Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic designs the treatment to ensure even distribution of thermal energy by accurately defining the lines while the patient remains seated.

Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic applies a Super Pass technique to adjust treatment intensity, ensuring sufficient cumulative energy delivery.
By accumulating energy through a "pass" method, where the same area is treated multiple times, heat is delivered evenly to every part of the grid without any gaps.
Results Only Possible at Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic
These results are not simply due to owning the equipment, but stem from differences in design and treatment methods.

After the procedure, a lifting card is filled out to share the treatment history, allowing for an informed decision when scheduling the next session.
Even if you are considering Tenssermar due to the high price of Thermage FLX, Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic guides you to make a decision only after thoroughly explaining the differences between the two procedures during the consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Which procedure, Thermage FLX or Tenssermar, should I consult about first?
A. The correct order is to first assess the degree of sagging and the area of concern, and then decide which of the two procedures is more suitable.
Q. Why is the price of Thermage FLX higher than Tenssermar?
A. There are differences in the output method, cartridge configuration, and treatment area, which lead to a different cost structure for the procedure itself.
Q. Does Tenssermar also require multiple sessions?
A. Both procedures aim for cumulative effects, so repeat treatments at 1-month intervals are recommended, and adjustments are made based on individual skin conditions.
Q. Can I just have a consultation?
A. Yes, you can. At Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic, we first assess the degree of sagging during the consultation phase and then provide guidance on the appropriate direction.
