Hongdae Dermatology Titanium Lifting 2nd Generation Portra Lifting: Honest Review of the Changes I Felt After One Week
As we age, the first change we notice every time we look in the mirror is that our entire face starts to sag.
I also feel like my elasticity has dropped drastically this year, and the area under my eyes has sagged, making my face feel like it's dripping like wax, so I'm thinking about getting a lifting procedure again.
Actually, I have had Jubelook volume treatment before.
I still remember the director telling me that the titanium lifting series would be a good fit for my face type.
However, I had heard a lot that “titanium lifting has a short maintenance period,” so I was hesitant to make a decision.
I found out that the procedure I received this time was the second generation of titanium lifting, Portra lifting.
-
Pain relief
-
Improved maintenance period
-
Improved treatment speed
Since these three are upgraded versions, there was no reason not to get them.
I live in Anyang, but most hospitals there don't have Portra lifting equipment yet, so I ended up having no choice but to go to Seoul.
I usually go to the Gangnam and Nonhyeon areas, but this was my first time visiting Hongdae Dermatology. It's right outside Exit 8 of Hongik University Station. I barely had to walk after getting off the subway.
(There was a major disaster on the way to Seoul where the sole of my shoe fell off… It's no secret that I've been feeling old again since then.)
The waiting room was clean, the sofas were comfortable, and it was well-stocked with a coffee machine and snacks.
It's my first time here, but I'm just going to pretend to be familiar with it haha
After registration, we will immediately begin washing your face.
Even if you only apply sunscreen, washing your face is essential, so it was easier to go without makeup.
3D Skin Precision Diagnosis: A Mental Breakdown Here
To be honest, I've had my skin measured in many places.
Usually, I would take a picture and say something like, “This is for reference only~”, but here The atmosphere was different.
Through 3D skin precision diagnosis skin age, flushing, Left-right asymmetry, direction of sagging He looked at it very closely.
The result is… skin age 40; mental breakdown for a moment.
Why the consultation was impressive
The consultation was with a male counselor, and most of the hospitals I've been to seemed to focus on quickly recommending programs.
Here, the asymmetry, forehead wrinkles, the need for forehead lifting, marionette lines, and lower cheek asymmetry are analyzed and explained based on the facial structure.
Instead of saying “Please do this procedure” “Aging is progressing like this on my face right now, I feel like I need to go in this direction.” Trust is gone.
What is Portra Lifting?
Portra Lifting is not a simple procedure that simply pulls the surface of the skin, but rather a lifting procedure that delivers energy to the 'retaining ligament' structure that extends from the periosteum of the bone to the dermis.
If this ligament breaks down, wrinkles, sag, facial asymmetry They said this is really starting.
So Portra Collagen remodeling, Instant lifting, Brightening, Fat shrinkage It is a treatment that targets both at the same time.
It is especially recommended for those who are concerned about double chins, bulldog fat (marionette lines), nasolabial folds, sagging forehead, deep wrinkles, or facial asymmetry.
How I felt the day of the procedure (honest)
The director looked at my face and said, “The number of shots and intensity can be adjusted a little,” but I went ahead with it.
Almost no downtime/You can go back to your daily life right after!
I heard you were sick… I was so sleepy I almost fell asleep
When I looked in the mirror right after the procedure The part of one side of the cheek that was severely swollen is coming up As the bulldog life is being sorted out I immediately felt like my facial contours had become clearer.
So I understand why many people receive it before important events.
Calm Care & Return Home
They finished off my skin with a soothing pack, applied sunscreen, and even gave me a sheet mask, so I just took the subway home.
✔ Immediately after the procedure
-
Face line tidied up/ Skin tone feels brighter
✔ Day 1-2
-
There is a little swelling (it's mostly my fault for eating and sleeping well the night before...)
✔ Day 3
-
The bulldog skin didn't completely disappear, but it definitely felt like it was lifted. I thought, "This isn't a one-time treatment."
✔ Day 4-5
-
Overall, the face feels neat. In terms of feeling I feel like I look 2~3 years younger
What's funny is, a week later I went back to get Rejuran and had another 3D diagnosis, and my skin age was measured to be 3 years younger.
If the machine says this… well, that says it all.
✔ Realistic advice
-
I think you'll be more satisfied if you plan to do it three times rather than just once.
-
It is important to choose a hospital that properly analyzes your facial structure.
“The prejudice that titanium lifting was not good was completely shattered by Portra Lifting.”

- 01CommentsThe treatment approach for nasolabial folds may vary depending on the degree of hollowness and the extent of cheek sagging. If the grooves themselves are deeply indented, filling them with fillers is effective for immediate improvement. On the other hand, if the wrinkles are caused by sagging cheek skin, lifting them with Ultherapy or thread lifting provides a more natural look. I recommend consulting with a clinic to accurately determine the cause and making a comprehensive decision.231026.10.29
- 02CommentsOndari Lifting features a powerful cooling system integrated into the handpiece itself, so there is virtually no pain or heat during the procedure. Since the sensation is more of a warm heat rather than a tingling sensation, many people receive the treatment comfortably without anesthetic cream. It is also a highly satisfying procedure for defining the double chin and deep cheek lines.160026.10.29
- 03CommentsRather than mixing up various procedures from the start, I think it would be better to start with just the one area you are most concerned about. I would probably start by consulting about the part that bothers me the most when I look in the mirror.200026.10.29
- 01CommentsI also looked for lifting creams before getting a consultation. I could definitely feel the hydration when I applied them, but I didn't really notice any significant improvement in my pores. However, since consistently moisturizing and taking good care of your skin's condition through sun protection helps, I think it would be a good idea to start with home care rather than expecting dramatic results.500026.10.18
- 02CommentsRadiofrequency or ultrasound lifting is a procedure you can comfortably receive at any time, largely regardless of the season. However, during the summer, your skin is easily irritated by sweat and strong UV rays, so you need to pay extra attention to soothing and sun protection. Conversely, in winter, managing dryness is essential, so you must provide thorough moisturizing care. Rather than focusing on the season, I recommend getting the treatment on a weekend or during a break when you have no important schedules.464026.10.23
- 03CommentsI think this is a perfectly understandable concern you might have while on your diet. When you hit a plateau, slightly adjusting your usual diet or adding light strength training to boost your basal metabolic rate are good solutions. I hope you don't give up and continue with your healthy routine!1495026.10.26
- 01CommentsTune Face allows for precise control of energy depth, making it suitable even for those with less cheek volume. Its major advantage is that it delivers high-frequency elasticity to the necessary areas while minimizing concerns about cheek hollowing. Satisfaction is high as you can expect both overall skin texture improvement and tightening effects. I hope this helps with your decision regarding the procedure.1942026.09.30
- 02CommentsI see you were very curious about the downtime for the Onda Lifting procedure due to concerns regarding jawline elasticity. While individual differences exist, the Onda Lifting generally causes minimal bruising or swelling, so only slight redness usually occurs on the day of the procedure. You can apply makeup and resume your daily activities without any issues the following day, so please feel free to schedule a consultation.781026.10.09
- 03CommentsIf it were me, I would start by getting the procedure that is your top priority. If your biggest concern is sagging facial contours, I would recommend Ultherapy; if you are more concerned about dull skin, fine lines, or loss of elasticity, I would suggest consulting about Thermage first. Then, observe the results for about two months and proceed with treatments to address any remaining issues. Rather than getting both procedures at once, I think it is better to try one first, taking your skin condition into account!932126.10.21
