If you have a lot of facial fat and your main concerns are your jawline and double chin, it is important to first determine whether you have a lot of fat or significant skin sagging, rather than focusing solely on skin tightening and lifting. While HIFU devices like Ulthera can help improve submental fat along with lifting the skin under the chin, procedures aimed at fat reduction may be more suitable if the amount of fat is substantial. There are devices like InMode and Onda that can address fat reduction as well, while RF-based devices like Volneumer address both elasticity and contour improvement. It is not a good idea to blindly opt for aggressive fat reduction treatments just because you have a lot of facial fat; you must also assess the degree of cheek hollowing and sagging.

After receiving Volneumer, you can feel satisfied with the improvement in skin texture and elasticity, and the changes tend to become more pronounced after about 1 to 2 months. Since it is important to give your skin time to recover after Volneumer, please be sure to avoid saunas and high-intensity exercise.

If you want natural results, rather than choosing just one treatment, it is recommended to consult about combining fillers and Botox or undergoing lifting treatments after assessing your facial structure and skin condition.

Thread lifting typically lasts for about 6 to 12 months, and you can consider a maintenance procedure once a year if sagging becomes a concern again. It is not necessary to receive the treatment every year; it is appropriate to add it only when needed, depending on the effectiveness and skin condition.

They say the lifting effect appears immediately after the procedure. It is said to last for about 1 to 2 years.

Generally, it is not a typical process for the outer corners of the eyes to sag more than before the procedure simply because the effects of thread lifting wear off. It is said that as the lifting effect of the threads diminishes over time, the eyes generally return to their original state. However, since skin aging and loss of elasticity occur simultaneously, the eyes may appear to sag further as time passes. The typical duration of the effects of outer corner thread lifting is about 6 months to 1 year, but there is quite a significant difference depending on the type of thread used, the procedure method, skin elasticity, and lifestyle habits.

You can add fillers after forehead laser treatment or thread lifting, but it is generally safer to leave an interval of 1 to 2 weeks to allow swelling and heat sensations to subside. Generally, if sagging or loss of elasticity is your main concern, the order of lifting followed by fillers is safe; however, if your forehead already appears sunken, it is advisable to consult with a medical professional to decide whether to combine the lift with fillers.

If you have little facial volume or thin skin, you should avoid fat-burning procedures and choose treatments that restore the skin's natural elasticity and density. Choosing the wrong procedure can lead to side effects such as cheek hollowing (sagging cheeks). **Recommended Lifting Procedures** **Radio-Frequency Lifting (Denser-T, Thermage, Oligio)** **Principle:** Induces collagen regeneration by applying heat to the skin surface and dermis layer. **Advantages:** Minimal side effects of fat loss; it tightens the density of thin skin and improves fine lines. **Volume-Shaping Lifting (Volneumer, Tune Face)** **Principle:** Minimizes pain and delivers moisture and radio-frequency energy to the skin. **Advantages:** Improves skin elasticity with a low risk of cheek hollowing, making it suitable for faces with little volume.

If you focus only on the jawline and double chin, you will typically receive around 200 to 300 shots, whereas for a fuller face, you will usually receive 300 to 400 shots or more. If you have less facial fat, it is recommended to focus on areas with sagging rather than receiving high-intensity Ultherapy treatment across the entire face. The effects usually become more pronounced 1 to 3 months after the first treatment, and maintenance treatments are commonly performed at intervals of 6 to 12 months.

I had 6 Mint threads inserted into my forehead. In my case, the dimples weren't severe from the start. The hardest part was the pain! The swelling lasted for almost a week, I think...

If you have deep forehead wrinkles, rather than simply choosing the single most effective procedure, it is important to first determine whether the wrinkles appear when you move or remain deeply etched even when you are at rest. If the wrinkles are primarily expression lines caused by frowning or raising your eyebrows, Botox is the first option considered; it is actually a treatment proven effective for moderate to severe horizontal wrinkles on the forehead. The effects usually appear over a few days, and the duration of the results is approximately 3 to 4 months. If the wrinkles are fixed and deeply etched even when at rest, Botox alone may not completely eliminate them, so fillers or lasers are often considered in conjunction. For deeply etched wrinkles, a combination of Botox, fillers, and lasers is sometimes used. Since thread lifting or facelifts are primarily intended to correct sagging skin or tighten facial contours, they are not likely the first procedures to consider if your only concern is deep horizontal forehead wrinkles. The suitability of autologous dermal regeneration can also vary depending on your skin condition and the cause of the wrinkles.

The results of thread lifting usually vary depending on the type of thread used and the individual's skin condition. Generally, the effects tend to last for about 6 months to 1 year and 6 months. Consistent skin elasticity care and moisturizing after the procedure will help extend the duration of the results. I hope your questions have been answered and that you achieve a beautiful figure!
