InMode LIFTING is known as a procedure that helps with contour concerns in the jawline or cheek area, which may be blurred due to fat accumulation.

It is not a suitable procedure for everyone, so it is advisable to understand how it works and to whom it is recommended beforehand.

This procedure works by simultaneously utilizing Radiofrequency (RF) energy and High Voltage Pulse (HVP).

First, radiofrequency energy is used to raise the temperature of the fat layer to approximately 40 to 43 degrees Celsius.

Fat cells only respond effectively to high voltage pulses when this specific temperature range is reached.

When high voltage pulses are applied to preheated fat cells, their cell membranes are irreversibly damaged, leading to a gradual process of cell death.

The vacuum suction function of the device's handpiece helps improve energy delivery efficiency by bringing the fat layer closer to the skin.

If changes in your face line are due to fat accumulation, InMode LIFTING can be considered as an alternative.

It may be recommended for those with a noticeable double chin due to submental fat, or a blurred mouth area line due to sagging buccal fat.

It can also be a suitable method for those who wish to improve their facial contour through fat volume reduction without bone surgery.

Those who experience discomfort with anesthetic cream or have sensitive skin may also consider it.

This is because InMode devices perform the procedure without the use of anesthetic cream, as per the manufacturer's recommendations.

It can also be a relatively low-burden option for those who wish for a quick return to daily life.

There are various types of lifting procedures, each differing in the skin layer they target and the expected effects.

Methods that directly pull the SMAS layer to improve sagging and methods that reduce fat volume to refine contours have fundamentally different approaches.

InMode LIFTING is closer to the latter concept, focusing on changes in the face line caused by fat.

Since the appropriate procedure may vary depending on whether the cause of sagging is fat or reduced skin and tissue elasticity, it is important to accurately identify the cause through consultation with a medical professional.

This procedure is performed based on the actual energy injection time, not the number of shots.

It is known that a fat breakdown effect can be expected only when an actual irradiation time of at least 6 minutes per area is secured.

Generally, about 5 sessions are recommended, and it can be more effective when performed at intervals of 1 to 2 weeks.

If weekly visits are difficult, it is also possible to adjust the intervals to 2 to 4 weeks.

Pain can be described as a tolerable warmth or tingling sensation, even without anesthesia.

While bruising may occur due to strong negative pressure, the presence or size of bruises is not a direct indicator of the procedure's effectiveness.

Generally, bruises tend to subside naturally between 3 days and 2 weeks after the procedure.

After the procedure, it is recommended to consume a sufficient amount of water to facilitate the smooth excretion of dead fat cells.

Activities that can cause a sensation of heat on the face, such as exercise, sauna, and alcohol consumption, should be avoided for about 1 to 2 days after the procedure.

While there are some claims that maintaining the temperature for a long time after the procedure leads to better effects, this information lacks sufficient medical evidence.

Since the process of fat cell death is already completed in the deep layers of the skin during the procedure, whether cold compresses are applied after the procedure does not affect the results.

At Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic, the cost of InMode LIFTING is determined based on the actual energy injection time.

Waiting time or handpiece movement time is not included in the payment, and the cost is calculated by reflecting only the pure irradiation time recorded on the equipment monitor.

After the procedure is completed, we will guide clients so they can directly check this record.

At Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic, design work is always performed in a sitting position before the procedure.

Due to the nature of a powerful fat reduction procedure, attention must be paid to cheek hollowing. By accurately distinguishing sagging fat areas from areas needing volume in a sitting posture, precise targeting is possible.

Furthermore, Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic utilizes a method of adjusting the pulse duration differently in the early and late stages of the procedure.

This unique sitting design and payment system based on actual energy injection time are distinguishing features of Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic.

In the initial stage of the procedure, the focus is on rapidly raising the temperature to 40 degrees Celsius, and after reaching the target temperature, the proportion of high voltage pulses is increased to enhance treatment efficiency within the same duration.

Once the procedure is complete, a lifting card is filled out to record the amount of energy injected on the day and the main target areas, which is then shared with the patient.

This record allows for a detailed discussion during the next visit regarding the differences from previous procedures or directions for improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Who is InMode LIFTING recommended for?

If you are concerned about changes in your face line due to fat accumulation, such as a double chin or sagging cheeks, you can consider InMode lifting treatment.

Q. How long does the InMode lifting treatment take?

InMode lifting treatment takes a minimum of 6 minutes or more for energy delivery per area. The total time for the entire procedure may be somewhat longer.

Q. How many sessions of InMode lifting are recommended?

InMode lifting generally recommends about 5 sessions, and the appropriate treatment interval is known to be 1 to 2 weeks.

Q. If bruising occurs after InMode lifting treatment, does it mean it's not effective?

No, that's not the case. Bruising that appears after InMode lifting treatment can be a reaction based on the patient's individual skin characteristics and is not directly related to the treatment's effectiveness.
