It works,
but Ulthera has this one really unique thing about it.
These days, a lot of high-end lifting lasers have hit the market.
(Only Ulthera can xxx) Only Ulthera...
PD: Dr.Lee, I saw the other day that
Ji Ye-eun got Ulthera done too.
Oh, I'm actually a fan of her.
She's looking so much better now.
(Missing double chin) Her signature double chin is kind of disappeared.
PD: Turns out a ton of celebs have all gotten Ulthera too,
like Jun Hyun-moo, Song Ji-hyo, and Han Ye-seul.
I thought it was so interesting too.
All of a sudden,
people just started openly confessing they’ve had Ulthera done.
(For people who take care, Ulthera!) At some point, getting Ulthera
just started to feel like a given.
Hi, I'm Dr.Lee, all about helping you look your absolute best.
These days, honesty is trendy.
So when celebs get asked how they take care of their skin,
most of them just say, "I go to the clinic and get laser treatments."
A lot of them specifically mention getting Ulthera.
But I think soon, you’ll start hearing more people say they got Ultherapy Prime.
She's one of the most talked about recently.
Ji Ye-eun said her double chin
(Ji Ye-eun and her vanished double chin) disappeared after getting Ulthera.
But honestly, with the kind of double chin she had,
I don’t think Ulthera alone could’ve done all that.
I think she was on a diet and got Ulthera together.
For those who watch my videos steadily,
didn't my face change a bit?
(Diet) As I lost some weight,
I got the Ulthera I needed.
Other than that, I got a tune liner.
When you're losing weight and your face starts slimming down,
getting Ulthera at the same time helps everything tighten up way better.
And recently,
Jun Hyun-moo mentioned he got Ulthera too.
He said, "You look your best about a month later,"
"and this is my peak right now."
And honestly, that’s spot on.
Some people feel tighter right after getting Ulthera,
but I usually tell patients
it takes about a month to really see results
and the one to three-month window is when it looks the best.
As for how often to get it, once a year,
and if you're really into maintenance, maybe twice a year at most.
After Song Ji-hyo got Ulthera, her face got so puffy,
so people started calling her "Song-thera."
She said she got 600 shots.
PD: Does it usually swell up that much?
It really depends on your condition that day,
(Most people don’t swell up like that) but usually, Ulthera doesn’t cause noticeable swelling.
Maybe around 30% of people get a slight puffiness.
On average, the puffiness lasts about 2–3 days,
but for some people,
it can stick around for over 10 days.
“Wait, will I swell up like that if I get Ulthera?”
A lot of people worry like this.
It's not common and rarely happens
but there is a possibility it can happen to you.
You can think about it that way.
Ulthera used to be famous for its pain.
Ulthera these days are mostly done by using only anesthetic cream.
There are people doing sleep anesthesia too.
Like Han Ye-seul.
She said she gets Ulthera once a year at the beginning of the year.
Han Ye-seul gets Ulthera
under sedation,
and while she’s at it, she also gets Dermatoxin,
what most people call skin Botox, done at the same time.
That totally makes sense to me.
Dermatoxin is one of those treatments celebs get all the time.
It makes your makeup go on smoother
and really calms the skin down.
But it hurts a lot,
so I get why they choose to do it under sedation.
The effect lasts about 3 to 6 months
If she gets it once a year,
I’d guess the Dermatoxin effect might wear off a bit toward the end.
That is my personal opinion.
PD: Then instead of skin Botox,
what's another good treatment to get while doing Ulthera?
The most popular combo treatment is definitely Thermage.
These days, people often add Titanium lifting too,
so it's called Ul-Ther-Ti for short.
Ulthera tightens the SMAS
and upper layers and boosts collagen,
Thermage works through the full skin layers
for deeper collagen regeneration,
and Titanium lifting helps tighten
everything without causing volume loss.
That’s the trend right now.
(Shh, just between us)
Kim Sook mentioned she got Ulthermage.
Usually, for Thermage,
you get around 600 shots as a base.
Then Ulthera is added depending on your needs,
some go with 300 or 600 shots,
but those who wants more can get up to 900 or even 1200 shots.
She said it felt like 5 ton truck stepped on her.
Personally, I feel like
(I think she was just trying to be funny) she was kind of exaggerating it for laughs.
(Almost no pain after Ulthera) By the next day, there's barely any pain.
Since it hurts during the treatment,
people go under sedation,
and when they wake up, they don’t really feel any pain at all.
"Which one hurts more? Ulthera or Thermage?"
Someone asked this.
It really differs on the person.
Both use heat, but they work differently.
Ulthera targets very specific points,
(Ulthera feels like sharp stinging) so it feels like sharp, stinging pain.
Thermage heats up the entire layer,
(Thermage feels like deep heat) so the pain feels more like a deep, burning heat.
That’s the main difference.
Choi Hwa-jung, who's famous for her youthful looks,
also said she gets Ulthera and Thermage once a year.
But she really emphasized that when it comes to anti-aging,
going overboard can backfire.
(I completely agree) I completely agree with this statement.
Honestly, if a clinic keeps pushing you
to get a ton of treatments,
it’s better to steer clear.
What really matters is getting the right amount
and intensity that actually fits your face.
PD: Everyone's getting Ulthera these days,
and it's probably because the results really do speak for themselves, right?
It works,
but Ulthera has this one really unique thing about it.
These days, a lot of high-end lifting lasers have hit the market.
Only Ulthera can target and lift the SMAS layer.
Ulthera works by sending ultrasound through the skin,
then focusing that energy deep inside
to create heat at a precise point
and that heat forms thermal coagulation zones.
Those heat points
(Tightening and collagen boost around thermal coagulation points) trigger skin tightening and collagen regeneration.
One of Ulthera’s biggest strengths
(Precise targeting of focal depth) is that it can precisely control how deep the energy goes.
From the 4.5mm SMAS layer, to the 3mm dermis,
all the way up to the 1.5mm epidermis,
Ulthera can now treat
all layers.
Thermage also reaches the SMAS layer,
but the heat it generates isn’t as intense as Ulthera’s.
Unlike Ulthera,
there’s no method that uses ultrasound
to specifically target and focus on
the SMAS layer for tightening.
The trend these days is to loosen the SMAS layer,
then use other treatments
to firm up the epidermis.
Today, we took a look at Ulthera,
the anti-aging lifting laser
that’s popular among celebrities.
Did you like it?
Both celebrities
and regular patients, once they start anti-aging treatments
and lifting lasers,
often end up getting Ulthera.
As I always say,
the design of Ultherapy is crucial.
Everyone knows it, right?
It's often said that the machine is 30% and the practitioner is 70% for Ulthera.
It’s really important to get treated by an experienced doctor.
you're going to do it, I’d recommend getting Ultherapy Prime
for even better results.
