I would like to inquire about choosing a lifting procedure (Ulthera vs. Thermage).
2026.11.02 08:57
Hello. I am planning a lifting procedure for a family member in their late 40s (48 years old) to address sagging skin elasticity and lower facial contours. Rather than a loss of facial volume, I am concerned about a combination of issues including the jawline, slight sagging around the mouth, and an overall decline in skin texture and elasticity.
I am unsure which procedure to prioritize between the ultrasound (HIFU)-based Ulthera and the radio frequency (RF)-based Thermage Flex. I would like to ask for a medical opinion on whether Ulthera is suitable for correcting a sagging jawline, or if Thermage, which induces collagen remodeling throughout the dermis to address both skin texture and fine lines, would be more appropriate for this age group. Please provide appropriate guidance based on the differences in the action layers and expected effects of the two procedures.

- 01CommentsThe recommended number of shots and sessions may vary from person to person depending on the treatment scope and skin elasticity. If you have any concerns before the procedure, we recommend visiting a nearby branch to discuss your skin condition.1020026.11.01
- 02CommentsIf you are concerned about both sagging and unwanted fat, consulting about a combination procedure where the fat is reduced first with InMode FX and then tightened with Ulthera or Shurink will create much greater synergy.360026.11.01
- 03CommentsI can really relate because I was once shocked to discover fine lines in the same spot while looking at a side profile photo. Since moisturizing alone isn't enough to leave wrinkles intact during chilly weather, I think it would be a good idea to ask the doctor to check for both elasticity and dryness in this area during your consultation. It shows how thoughtful you were to organize your questions into a list like this. I hope you get good results!460026.11.01

- 03CommentsI heard that the appropriate procedure for deep cheek fat varies depending on whether the issue is due to excess fat or a lack of skin elasticity. In particular, if you have relatively little cheek fat, sunken cheeks may occur after a lift, so I think you should choose carefully. It would be best to check the overall fat distribution and degree of sagging in your face before making a decision.530026.10.31
- 01CommentsSince you are looking into a consultation before a family event, I imagine you are particularly curious about the recovery period. Although I have no experience with the procedure, I would like to ask about dryness management and the lifting schedule during the consultation. Would it be helpful to explain the schedule if I also let you know how much time is left until the event?870026.10.08
- 02CommentsSince satisfaction varies depending on the desired changes and your actual skin condition, it is recommended that you first consult about the underlying causes of your indistinct jawline. Check the expected changes and limitations for each area, and receive guidance on pain management methods and how to handle redness or marks if they occur. Aside from reviews from others, asking about cases where the treatment might not be suitable for you and when to check the progress after the first procedure will help you make an informed decision.2680026.10.21
