[Jfeel Clinic Dr.Lee] Hello, I'm Dr.Lee from Jfeel Clinic
When it comes to the best face-lift procedure
what's the first machine that comes to your mind?
[Ulthera] Ulthera, it's the most famous among HIFU ultrasonic devices.
Despite its high price, it offers great results
[Ultrasonic Monitor] allowing precise treatment with ultrasonic monitoring
ensuring machine stability.
For those who does face-lift procedures
you might have considered Ulthera at least once.
Why hesitate with such a great Ulthera?
In my opinion, the greatest drawback of Ulthera is
[Cost] simply the cost.
And because of the cost, to draw up a budget
the number of shots is naturally taken into consideration!
Today, to fill the budget cost-effectively
[Today's Topic: Ulthera, how many shots are cost-effective?] I'm going to talk about some points to consider.
Shh! Keep it to yourself!
<1. Why is Ulthera Expensive> Now, does anyone know how much the Ulthera equipment costs?
That's the price of a foreign car, right?
And what is actually more harsh than the cost of this equipment is
the price of these Ulthera cartridge tips.
*Over 3 million won each! Each cartridge costs over 3 million won
[The cost of procedure goes up due to expensive consumables] and this is one of the reasons why Ulthera is expensive.
<2. Criteria determining the number of shots of Ulthera?> Ulthera, and especially since the number of shots directly affects the cost
the most common inquiry is
How many shots do I need for my face?
And we receive a lot of questions like this.
[300 Shots Twice VS 600 Shots Once] Dr.Lee, is it better for me to get 300 shots twice
or 600 shots once?
The number of Ulthera shots varies depending on the condition of the face.
As a simple example, when both men and women come in
generally, women's faces are much smaller.
So, of course, if a man gets the same number of shots
the effect will be reduced if the procedure area is different, even if it is the same number of shots.
*Men tend to receive more~! So, on average, men tend to receive more shots.
Depending on the condition of the face and specific areas
the number of shots ranges from 100 to 800 shots, and sometimes even more than 1,000 shots.
[Ulthera Cartridge Depth Types: 4.5mm, 3.0mm, 1.5mm] Since there are three cartridges with different depths
[4.5mm : Jawline/Under Chin/Double Chin, 3.0mm : Cheeks/Forehead/Double Chin/Neck, 1.5mm : Forehead/Under Eyes] depending on the area, such as skin thickness, curves, and dents
it is determined which cartridge to use and how to use it.
You can use multiple cartridges
or just two
and in some cases, such as around the eyes, only one cartridge is used.
It's designed like this in advance.
<3. Self-check for the number of shots for my face!> Before I examine the skin elasticity or face size
it's quite difficult to provide precise information
but for those who are curious
[Special Revelation of Average Ulthera Shot Count!] I'd like to explain the average number of shots typically administered during the procedure.
Normally, if it is about the size of two fingers on both sides
[Rough check method] about 100 shots are basically needed.
For example, 100 shots for the jawline, 100 for the smile lines
100 for cheeks, 100 for the double chin, 100 for the neck, 100 for the forehead
that's how it goes.
*For example! So, if you don't want to get procedure on your forehead and neck
but want to include up to double chin, then, assuming the minimum shots
[Self-check the number of Ulthera shots! Jawline, smile lines, cheeks, double chin, 100 each, total 400 shots!] it would be around 100, 200, 300, 400 shots.
"Maybe a bit more on the cheek fat pad.." (However) If the cheek fat pad area bothers you a bit more
"Hmm... Should I do a little more on the jaw?" so you want to focus more on the jawline
adding roughly an additional 100 shots in there would be typically 500 shots
and including Ulthera for the forehead or eyes would be 600 shots.
[Average number of Ulthera shots] Mostly 600 shots for a full face.
<4. How big is the difference between 100 shots?> A lot of questions are like this.
Is there a big difference between 600 and 1,000 shots?
Many ask these questions.
Mathematically, it's just a 400-shot difference!
Thinking about 400 shots compared to 600, it's roughly 70%.
So, it's about whether to get 100 or 170 shots.
In simple terms, it's essentially the same as the difference between 100 and 170 shots!
It's bigger than you thought, isn't it?
[Perceived Effect by Shot counts? *What about the same 100-shot difference?] Then, even with a 100-shot difference
when you ask "Should I get 200 shots or 300 shots?"
[100 shots, which is 50% of 200 shots, increases the perceived effect by 50%!] A 100-shot makes a big difference.
But when you ask, "Should I get 1,000 shots of 1,100 shots?"
[100 shots, which is 10% of 1,000 shots, increases the perceived effect by 10%!] The difference of 100-shot is not that significant.
In other words, compared to the number of shots you received
it depends on how big the size of 100 shots are
and what percentage they account for
the most curious question
"How much difference does an extra 100 shots make?"
*It's not written in stone! it's answer will also vary!
<5. How to calculate the procedure time> When the tip is put on your face, then the shot pops out
it feels like being pricked by a needle.
As it passes over once in that manner, that's one shot.
Well, for this treatment, based on 100 shots
it takes about 5 minutes for 100 shots!
So, for 600 shots, it would take about 30 minutes
*Only for procedure time! spent on the procedure time.
Before that, you also need to apply numbing cream
there's time for consultation, examination
and wrapping up too
so, I think you should schedule accordingly.
Shh! Keep it to yourself!
<6. What to check when doing Ulthera procedure!> If there's some point, you must check
always make sure to check if genuine tips are being used!
Sometimes, our hospital also receives a lot of questions like
"Why didn't they give me a certificate of authenticity?" I had a procedure at another hospital but didn't get a certificate of authenticity.
"They said all the stickers even ran out!" They said the stickers ran out today, so I couldn't get them.
"What about the genuine QR code and number?" Also, some people ask if the sticker that lacks a QR code and serial number
is genuinely authentic? Lots of questions like these come up.
First off, I think it just doesn't make sense.
What doesn't make sense is
[Giving trust to the patients is a must...] I think it doesn't make any sense that they couldn't give trust to the patients
[Check the hologram sticker to find out the genuine Ulthera tips] Ulthera genuine authentication sticker is
[Hologram sticker] a hologram sticker that comes with the package when you purchase Ulthera tips.
[Ulthera's serial number (*This is for example)] The serial number on the tip and the serial number
on the authentication sticker must match each other for authenticity!
When you tear off the hologram of the sticker you received
[Genuine QR code, Genuine authentication number] a QR code and authentication number will appear.
Therefore, if the serial number cannot be confirmed?!
or that the genuine sticker is not provided because it ran out
the cartridge and the certificate of genuine authenticity sticker
[Cartridge and genuine sticker] may not be the same!
So, patients can see on the Internet
or YouTube because it's so famous.
Ulthera re-used cartridge, Ulthera re-used tip
Re-use tips are still used illegally So I think you can't help but be skeptical.
You can also check the authenticity on the Ulthera website!
I recommend you check it out after you get the procedure
Sometimes, on the website of Ulthera
they give out gifts based on the number of shots you received.
So I hope you get it when the time comes.
So, today, I explained about the number of Ulthera shots.
There are many other questions.
Since it's an expensive procedure
I guess you're trying to examine it carefully and get it.
*That's right! Of course, you need to look into it and consider it further.
This is a procedure that is done at most twice a year, usually once
so if you want to go to the clinic where's trustworthy
or if you really want to get done well
it's an expensive procedure, so you have to think more carefully!
I'd like to answer all your questions
but I feel it might get too long
so I'll prepare Ulthera Q&A
as soon as possible.
