Tenssarma 300 shots twice vs 600 shots once

If you have decided which lifting procedure to receive,

the next thing you might wonder is 'how many shots are appropriate.'

You know that if the number of lifting shots increases, so does the energy,

leading to better results, but

have you ever wondered if there's a difference in effectiveness between receiving 300 shots twice with an interval, and receiving 600 shots all at once?

Even if you haven't, we'll tell you!


1. The core of Tenssarma is not 'a single thermal denaturation'.

Tenssarma uses high-frequency waves to instantly denature proteins in the dermal layer,

and induces new collagen production during the recovery process.

The two important facts here are:

1. Thermal stimulation must exceed a certain threshold for meaningful denaturation to occur.

2. As heat continuously accumulates in the process of reaching the threshold, the elasticity response becomes deeper.

Therefore, it's not structured such that the same total number of shots always produces the same results.

Especially for lifting treatments like Tenssarma, where energy per shot can be adjusted, how densely heat accumulates within a single sessiondetermines the outcome.


2. 300 Shots Twice vs 600 Shots Once: A Structural Comparison

1) Advantages of 600 Shots Once

When 600 shots are performed intensively in one session, the heat accumulation effect is maximized.

-Heat accumulates over a certain period, leading to stronger denaturation of the dermal layer.

-A uniform heat pattern is easily formed throughout the entire dermal layer.

-Immediate tightening response is relatively pronounced.

-Shots can be precisely concentrated on areas that require lifting.


A single session of 600 shots is advantageous in the following situations:

-Individuals in their 30s-40s with clear sagging jawline and jowls

-Those who desire significant elasticity improvement in one go

-Skin types with low responsiveness to high-frequency waves


2) Advantages of 300 Shots Twice

Performing 300 shots twice offers another set of benefits.

-The collagen regeneration process begins with the first treatment, and responsiveness increases with a second stimulation 2-4 weeks later.

-Less burden on skin that is sensitive to high-frequency thermal stimulation.

-When it's difficult to receive 600 shots in one session


300 shots twice is advantageous in the following cases:

-Thin skin that is sensitive to heat response

-Skin types where swelling and heat sensation persist for a long time

-Those who prefer gradual changes

-When it's difficult to receive many shots in one go due to scheduling


3. Considering only effectiveness, which approach is superior?

To get straight to the conclusion, if we only compare the intensity of the effect,

a single session of 600 shots often produces more powerful results.

The reason is clear.

Tenssarma is a heat-accumulation type lifting device, and

the more densely energy is delivered in one go, the more pronounced the tissue denaturation appears.


With 300 shots twice, a recovery process intervenes between each session, so

the effect of continuous thermal denaturation is somewhat divided.


On the other hand, 600 shots once intensively accumulates heat over a sustained period.

It accumulates to induce a stronger elastic response.

Of course, this comparison the premise that shot distribution is accuratemust be in place for it to be valid.

Even with the same 600 shots, 600 shots applied without anatomical criteria, simply superficial, and

the results of 600 shots applied intensively to necessary areas are completely different.


4. Is two sessions of 300 shots a bad choice then?

No, it is not.

Two sessions of 300 shots is a sufficiently effective method in the following aspects:


● Better safety for sensitive skin

For types where swelling or redness lasts longer due to high-frequency stimulation,

performing 300 shots twice can significantly reduce skin stress.


● After confirming responsiveness in the first session, customization is possible in the second session

Each individual has different high-frequency sensitivity, heat transfer efficiency, fat thickness etc.

By checking the response in the first session and adjusting the density in the necessary areas during the second session, results can be improved.


● Suitable for those who prefer a natural pace

While changes are relatively fast with 600 shots in one go,

those who wish for a slower pace of change often find two sessions of 300 shots more comfortable.


5. In reality, 'shot distribution' is more important than the number of shots

Many people compare shot counts, but in actual clinical practice, shot distribution has a greater impact on the results.


For example,

-whether the sagging is centered on the jowls

-whether a sagging jawline is the problem

-how sunken the nasolabial folds and marionette lines are

-what the skin thickness is


Based on these factors, even the same 600 shots can yield completely different results.

Ultimately, what's important is how accurately the necessary heat pattern for the facial structure is createdis.


6. Conclusion

● If only considering the intensity of effect → 600 shots in one session is stronger.

-Heat accumulates densely in one session.

-Tissue denaturation is more distinct.

-Tightening response appears quickly.


● If considering skin response, schedule, sensitivity, etc. → two sessions of 300 shots are also quite reasonable.

-Less burden on sensitive skin.

-The second treatment can be adjusted based on the response.

-Gradual changes are possible.


7. Ultimately, what's important is whether it's the right method for an individual's facial structure

Tenssarma is a device where results are difficult to determine by shot count alone.

Factors such as skin thickness, fat layer structure, heat sensitivity, and sagging pattern determine the optimal method based on individual structural characteristics.

Whether it's two sessions of 300 shots or one session of 600 shots,

the most important thing is accurately determining what the most efficient approach is for your faceis.
