Hongdae Dermatology Portra Lifting Review: Titanium Upgrade 4-Wavelength, 80kJ, Nearly Painless Lifting, and Changes in 2 Weeks
These days, when I look in the mirror, the first thing I notice is loss of elasticity and blurring of lines.
In particular, the tear trough, forehead volume, and jawline area cannot be covered with makeup.
Surgery is burdensome, and you want to avoid pain and downtime, but still want to experience “immediate changes after just one session.”
So, I personally tried Portra Lifting, which is an upgraded version of the existing titanium lifting, and summarized the actual process and effects.
When choosing a lifting procedure, the criteria I considered were clear.
① Is it possible to access each skin layer?
Listen to the explanation, it is a structure that uses four different wavelengths for each skin layer called Port to deliver heat in stages from the epidermis to the dermis to the SMAS to the fibrous ligament. → It is not a simple “pulling” method, but a method that simultaneously aims for collagen regeneration and elasticity enhancement.
② Is customization possible?
The great thing about it was that it was possible to customize the shots to focus on the areas that needed more shots, rather than having a set number of shots.
③ Are there both immediate and delayed effects?
-
Changes are visible even immediately after the procedure. Collagen regeneration time after 2 weeks The explanation that it is felt once more felt reasonable.
Pre-procedure process: 3D skin precision diagnosis is key.
What impressed me most before the procedure was the 3D skin precision diagnosis.
It wasn't a simple consultation, but rather a step to check the current skin condition numerically.

Points confirmed in actual diagnosis
-
Tear trough elasticity level LV4 → Clear decrease in elasticity compared to other areas
-
Volume loss is further emphasized due to the effect of dark circles
-
The pores are the most severe in the butterfly zone → As you age, pores sag and sebum secretion appear together.
Based on this diagnosis
-
The forehead is still maintainable
-
jawline + double chin, Focus on the volume of the front cheekbones Custom design was put into practice.
Actual treatment experience: 80kJ, almost no pain
✔️Summary of treatment conditions
-
Output: 80kJ
-
Time required: approximately 20 minutes
-
Method: The director directly adjusts the 4 wavelengths for each area.
The most surprising thing during the procedure was the pain I felt.
To be honest, it was closer to “almost none.”
Tingling ❌ Burning sensation ❌ instead The cooling sensation continues So, the burden of fever was less.
Those who have experience with titanium lifting will feel that “this is an upgraded version.”
Changes immediately after the procedure & comparison of left and right sides (Immediate Result)
I compared the left and right sides in the mirror during the procedure, and this is the change that was clearly visible.
-
The volume of the front cheekbones comes first
-
The jawline is refined, making the lower jaw look less saggy.
-
The overall impression of the face being a little more distinct
It wasn't an exaggerated lifting, but more of a "feeling of the skin returning to its original position."
And the important point: It's possible to live a normal life right away.
There was almost no redness or swelling, so I was able to resume my routine right after the procedure without any problems.
Benefits of Portra Lifting
-
Almost no pain
-
No downtime
-
Instant contour change
-
Expect increased effectiveness in collagen regeneration timing after 2 weeks
If you are considering lifting, it is important to check the diagnosis → custom design → output/wavelength combination rather than just the number of shots.

- 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.190026.10.29
- 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
