1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.460
(If you have little to no facial fat, go for Thermage instead of Ultherapy?!)
These days, it’s pretty much common knowledge that people with less facial fat

2
00:00:04.460 --> 00:00:07.080
(This is almost common knowledge now)
should opt for Thermage over Ultherapy.

3
00:00:07.080 --> 00:00:08.700
(If you have sagging skin and little cheek fat?)
For those with loose skin

4
00:00:08.700 --> 00:00:11.140
but not much cheek fat,

5
00:00:11.140 --> 00:00:11.801
actually...

6
00:00:11.801 --> 00:00:13.261
(So, what’s the solution...?)

7
00:00:14.380 --> 00:00:17.499
(Dr.Lee, Chief director of Jfeel clinic)
Hello, I'm Dr.Lee, dedicated to bringing out the most beautiful look.

8
00:00:17.499 --> 00:00:20.939
Ultherapy is practically synonymous with HIFU lifting.

9
00:00:20.939 --> 00:00:23.900
Let’s go over some common questions from patients.

10
00:00:23.900 --> 00:00:26.640
(Ultherapy Q1: Why is it so popular?)
Why is Ultherapy so widely loved?

11
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:29.860
In the end, I think its brand reputation plays a role,

12
00:00:29.860 --> 00:00:33.720
but more importantly, it delivers results that live up to that reputation.

13
00:00:33.720 --> 00:00:35.700
My SMAS layer has sagged,

14
00:00:35.700 --> 00:00:37.120
my epidermis isn’t in great shape,

15
00:00:37.120 --> 00:00:38.180
and my pores have enlarged.

16
00:00:38.180 --> 00:00:39.660
So is there a treatment that can lift,

17
00:00:39.660 --> 00:00:40.620
improve elasticity,

18
00:00:40.621 --> 00:00:42.021
and boost collagen

19
00:00:42.021 --> 00:00:44.400
all at once?

20
00:00:44.400 --> 00:00:46.279
That’s exactly what Ultherapy does.

21
00:00:46.279 --> 00:00:47.960
Since it’s the original,

22
00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:51.639
there’s a certain quality that later competitors just can’t quite match.

23
00:00:51.639 --> 00:00:52.920
It's a non-invasive treatment

24
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:55.640
that provides a lifting effect without incisions or needles,

25
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:57.180
(Lifts the SMAS layer with minimal downtime)
reaching the SMAS layer.

26
00:00:57.180 --> 00:00:59.640
Another big plus is that it has little to no downtime.

27
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:02.419
(Ultherapy offers long-lasting results)
It's also one of the longest-lasting treatments out there.

28
00:01:02.419 --> 00:01:04.859
(Ultherapy Q2. Does it have to hurt to be effective?)

29
00:01:04.859 --> 00:01:07.140
If it doesn’t hurt, did I not get it done properly?

30
00:01:07.140 --> 00:01:09.820
Whether it hurts or not depends on two different standards.

31
00:01:09.820 --> 00:01:11.679
(Why does Ultherapy pain vary? 1. Natural pain sensitivity)
First, your inborn pain sensitivity plays a big role.

32
00:01:11.679 --> 00:01:12.700
Some people barely feel

33
00:01:12.700 --> 00:01:15.520
any pain from these procedures,

34
00:01:15.520 --> 00:01:17.660
while others find them extremely painful.

35
00:01:17.660 --> 00:01:19.520
Natural pain sensitivity is something you just can’t override.

36
00:01:19.520 --> 00:01:23.140
(Why does Ultherapy pain vary? 2. Level of anesthesia)
The second factor is how well the anesthesia works.

37
00:01:23.140 --> 00:01:26.339
On days when your skin condition isn’t great or you’re feeling fatigued, 
the anesthesia might not be as effective.

38
00:01:26.339 --> 00:01:28.520
On those days, even at the same intensity,

39
00:01:28.520 --> 00:01:31.040
the treatment can feel more painful.

40
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:32.999
(When you're in top condition and anesthesia works well?)
If you get a good night’s sleep, avoid alcohol,

41
00:01:32.999 --> 00:01:34.839
and come in relaxed, the anesthesia works better.

42
00:01:34.839 --> 00:01:35.700
On those days,

43
00:01:35.700 --> 00:01:39.420
even at the same intensity, the treatment feels much more comfortable.

44
00:01:39.420 --> 00:01:43.319
So, the actual intensity, the number of anesthetic shots,

45
00:01:43.319 --> 00:01:45.040
and the depth of the fascia layer,

46
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:48.240
which is, if you're going to capture the fascia layer,

47
00:01:48.240 --> 00:01:50.939
is the biggest factor in the difference in effectiveness.

48
00:01:50.939 --> 00:01:53.720
The pain a patient subjectively feels doesn’t always have

49
00:01:53.720 --> 00:01:56.840
a significant impact on the actual results.

50
00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:00.919
Of course, if a patient is in too much pain that day

51
00:02:00.919 --> 00:02:02.359
and the doctor has no choice

52
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:04.613
but to lower the intensity,

53
00:02:04.613 --> 00:02:06.459
the effectiveness may be slightly reduced.

54
00:02:06.459 --> 00:02:08.800
So when receiving Ultherapy,

55
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:11.500
I recommend enduring the pain if possible.

56
00:02:11.500 --> 00:02:13.820
If you’ve had Ultherapy

57
00:02:13.820 --> 00:02:16.479
and found the pain unbearable,

58
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:17.620
you might want to consider

59
00:02:17.620 --> 00:02:20.600
sedation anesthesia as an option.

60
00:02:20.600 --> 00:02:23.019
We offer pain relief injections,

61
00:02:23.019 --> 00:02:23.820
Air-Nox,

62
00:02:23.820 --> 00:02:25.717
also known as laughing gas,

63
00:02:25.717 --> 00:02:28.119
and even sedation anesthesia.

64
00:02:28.119 --> 00:02:30.300
(Ultherapy Q3. If you have little to no facial fat, go for Thermage instead of Ultherapy?)
These days, it’s pretty much common knowledge

65
00:02:30.300 --> 00:02:32.639
that people with less facial fat

66
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:35.100
(This is almost common knowledge now)
should opt for Thermage over Ultherapy.

67
00:02:35.100 --> 00:02:37.279
Thermage is an excellent treatment,

68
00:02:37.279 --> 00:02:39.680
and many patients at our clinic choose to get it.

69
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:41.599
Thermage improves skin elasticity,

70
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:43.659
but the initial tightening effect is quite mild.

71
00:02:43.659 --> 00:02:46.419
On the other hand, Ultherapy provides strong initial tightening,

72
00:02:46.419 --> 00:02:48.119
and if too much energy is focused on areas with volume loss,

73
00:02:48.119 --> 00:02:50.980
(Strong tightening can make you look more hollow)
it can make the face appear even more hollow.

74
00:02:50.980 --> 00:02:53.219
It can also lead to some fat loss.

75
00:02:53.219 --> 00:02:56.800
The effectiveness of Ultherapy depends significantly on the design of the treatment.

76
00:02:56.800 --> 00:02:58.440
(If you have sagging skin and little cheek fat?)
For those with loose skin

77
00:02:58.440 --> 00:03:00.959
but not much cheek fat,

78
00:03:00.959 --> 00:03:03.500
if the treatment is well-designed,

79
00:03:03.500 --> 00:03:07.020
targeting the cheekbones and jawline with Ultherapy for tightening

80
00:03:07.020 --> 00:03:08.740
while slightly skipping areas

81
00:03:08.740 --> 00:03:11.220
with significant volume loss, like hollow cheeks,

82
00:03:11.220 --> 00:03:13.740
it can actually create a more lifted, fuller look

83
00:03:13.740 --> 00:03:16.000
and help improve a peanut-shaped face.

84
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:18.919
By using Thermage to improve overall skin elasticity

85
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:22.619
and strategically applying Ultherapy only to areas that need tightening,

86
00:03:22.619 --> 00:03:24.141
even those with little facial fat

87
00:03:24.141 --> 00:03:25.420
and hollow cheeks

88
00:03:25.420 --> 00:03:27.720
can still benefit from Ultherapy.

89
00:03:27.720 --> 00:03:29.820
