    UnverifiedSamsung White Dermatology Clinic

    Here's my review after getting Ultherapy at Samsung White Dermatology Clinic. From the moment I walked in, the staff were so kind and welcoming, which really eased my nerves. The consultation was very thorough, and they honestly explained how many shots I'd need based on the condition of my face and skin elasticity, which built my trust in them. During the procedure, there was some stinging, but they kept checking in on me, making it bearable. I liked that I could get back to my daily routine right after it was done. A few days later, I noticed a more defined jawline and my face felt firmer overall, so I'm really satisfied. It was all done nicely without any excessive pushing, so I’d recommend it to anyone trying Ultherapy for the first time.

    ☆I've been noticing my cheeks are sagging and it's making me look older, so I went in for some lifting treatments. This place is truly a lifting hotspot, no doubt about it! The Ultherapy was a bit painful, but they paid a lot of attention to me throughout the process, and most importantly, the results are amazing! I feel like I absolutely made the right choice in spending my money.

    I had a generally satisfying experience after receiving an Ultherapy treatment at AB Plastic Surgery. From my first visit, the consultation process was systematic, and they carefully checked my skin condition and elasticity before explaining in detail the number of shots and the treatment area suitable for my face, which built my trust. I was worried about pain with Ultherapy, but every time I felt discomfort during the procedure, they immediately checked in and adjusted the intensity, so I was able to handle it more easily than I expected. After the treatment, I felt an immediate sense of facial contouring, and particularly, the elasticity in my jawline and cheeks visibly improved. As the days went by, the lifting effect became more naturally apparent, which I was pleased with. The aftercare and guidance on precautions were thorough, making me feel that this is a clinic I can confidently recommend to anyone considering Ultherapy for the first time.

    UnverifiedSejong Tox & Fill Clinic

    I'm a lifting nomad. I primarily focus on deep balls and I've tried almost everything except Thermage. I even had Ultherapy done at the best place in Sejong City, but I can't say it was effective. I don't often write reviews, but I really felt something powerful when I received the Shrink treatment, and the lifting effect came on faster than when I had treatments elsewhere. This time, I also got contour injections, so the lifting effect is even more impressive than during my previous Ultherapy treatments. It's not even been 2 weeks yet, but these two treatments have greatly helped with deep ball lifting. I hope the effects last longer. ~ It's a great value for money, so if you're interested in deep ball lifting, give it a shot! ~

    UnverifiedDoctors Dermatology Clinic Gwangju Sangmu Branch

    I found this clinic while searching for a top doctor for Sculptra and Ultherapy. The head doctor was actively writing on a blog (which seemed separate from the clinic's official blog), and it was filled with sincere and professional content rather than the usual copy-paste type of posts. This motivated me to decide to go to this clinic. In other clinics, I typically spent a long time talking with the consultation manager, and only briefly met the doctor during the procedure. However, here, the doctor follows the basic protocol of consulting with patients, which I really appreciated. The procedure I was initially set on was deemed unnecessary by the doctor, who recommended a different one, allowing me to save money in the process. It's an ethical clinic. Due to its specialists in the area, the top doctor status, and the availability of anesthesia during procedures, I plan to get my Ultherapy, Thermage, and Sculptra treatments done here.

    ☆I've always been a total coward when it comes to getting procedures done, and I usually hesitate a lot. But my friend told me that the clinic she goes to started offering sedation, so I came right away to try it out. Since I was under sedation, I also went for the Ultherapy I’d always wanted to try and it didn’t hurt at all! The results were amazing! Next time, I plan to get one procedure after another with sedation.

    Lately, I’ve been stressed every time I look in the mirror because my jawline has become less defined, so after giving it some thought, I got 300 shots of Ultherapy Prime under sedation. I’m usually quite sensitive to pain, so I was really worried, but because it was done while I was asleep, it was so comfortable that I barely remember anything. Right after the procedure, my face just felt slightly sore, and there was hardly any swelling or visible sign that I’d had anything done, so I was able to go about my daily life right away. After about two to three weeks, I started noticing my jawline becoming more defined and the deep cheek area looking more refined, which was amazing. It didn’t feel overly tightened—it just looked naturally lifted, and I was so satisfied that people around me even started asking what I’d had done. The price was a bit of a stretch, but considering the results, I think it was a great choice.

    I have my wedding in March, so I got Ulthera done in advance! I regularly get Ulthera treatments, but I added Thermage this time because of my wedding schedule✨ I compared prices with other places and chose this one because the price is reasonable, but I prioritize authentic products. They provided certification for the genuine treatments and were very thorough in their care! I had the treatment done in January and had my ceremony in March, and thanks to that, I heard a lot of compliments like 'You've lost a lot of weight' and 'You look beautiful'🙂 The staff at the desk, the manager, and the doctor are always friendly, and they sometimes offer consultations on holidays, making it really convenient for busy professionals to schedule appointments for their treatments! I switched from another dermatology clinic! Highly recommend✨

    I've been worried about my double chin, so I consulted with Dr. Jeon Eun-taek and underwent Ulthera with 300 shots and Inmode treatment. I was nervous since it was my first visit, but the manager who assisted with my consultation kindly and calmly explained the entire treatment process, expected outcomes, and precautions, which made me trust her. Dr. Jeon Eun-taek personally evaluated my face shape and double chin condition and gave me a comfortable consultation focusing on the necessary areas without going overboard. The clinic seems popular; even though I made an appointment for a weekday morning, the waiting time was over 1 hour, which felt a bit long. I recommend scheduling with some extra time if you have a tight schedule. Overall, I was very satisfied with the consultation and treatment, and I'm looking forward to seeing the results afterwards^^**

    I just had Ultherapy at Seocho Oracle Dermatology Clinic. I was nervous since it was my first time, but they carefully examined my skin condition and sagging during the consultation and explained the number of shots and intensity in a gentle way, which made me trust them. During the procedure, I felt a slight sting, but they checked in on me throughout, making it bearable, and afterwards there wasn't much swelling or heat. I could immediately feel that my jawline was more defined and my face overall looked firmer, so I was happy with the results. There was no pressure for any additional treatments, and they provided clear aftercare instructions, creating a comfortable atmosphere overall. It's conveniently located near the subway, making it easy to visit, so I highly recommend it!

    I love a sophisticated look for my face that seems like I had work done but actually didn’t, so I tend to keep up with lifting treatments. Since it’s a procedure that requires a lot of attention, I've been following Dr. Ahn since he was at Modello. I feel reassured that I can maintain this for about a year without big worries with the combination of Sofwave and Ulthera. 😊 I think the elasticity of my skin and the lifting effect will last much longer. There’s no feeling of being overly pulled; my skin has tightened, and my jawline looks naturally defined, which made me really happy. I believe that consistently managing it like this is better than making a drastic change all at once.

    I received Ultherapy treatment at D-Day Clinic. I felt that my facial contours looked less defined than before, and in particular, I had the impression that my jawline was not well-defined, which led me to consider a lifting procedure. During the consultation, they assessed my skin thickness and sagging level, then explained the number of shots and intensity tailored to my face, which gave me confidence. During the procedure, there was a stinging pain, but it was manageable, and they checked my condition periodically, so it wasn't too burdensome. Immediately after the treatment, there wasn't a drastic change, but I felt a slight tightening in my face, and after a few days, I began to notice gradual improvements in my jawline and facial contours. Overall, my skin looks firmer, and my appearance feels more refined. For those looking for a natural lifting effect rather than drastic changes, D-Day Clinic's Ultherapy seems like a solid choice.

    I received a sleep anesthesia included Ultherapy treatment at Onyu Plastic Surgery Clinic. Recently, I’ve been feeling like my facial contours are sagging overall and my skin elasticity has decreased. While contemplating a lifting procedure, I was drawn to the Ultherapy program that includes sleep anesthesia to reduce pain concerns, leading me to choose this clinic. After arriving, I first had a consultation with Dr. Ahn Yong-soo, the director. He carefully examined the extent of sagging in my face and the thickness of my skin, explaining the suitable treatment plan and the number of shots required for my condition. Rather than promising excessive results, he provided realistic information on the expected changes, the duration of results, and post-treatment reactions, which built my trust, leading to my decision to proceed after a thorough consultation. The procedure was conducted under sleep anesthesia, allowing me to be in a relaxed state without tension. Although I had heard many concerns about pain during Ultherapy, I hardly felt any discomfort during the treatment thanks to the anesthesia. The treatment time was also shorter than I expected, and after a brief rest in the recovery room, I could return to my daily routine immediately. Right after the procedure, there was a slight tightness and warmth, but overall, there was no significant discomfort, and as time passed, I noticed my facial contours gradually becoming more refined. In particular, the elasticity around my jawline and cheeks improved noticeably, making my overall appearance much clearer. The clinic itself had a tidy and stable atmosphere, and the staff were generally very friendly and helpful. If you're hesitating about Ultherapy due to pain concerns, I felt it would be worth considering a consultation with Dr. Ahn Yong-soo at Onyu Plastic Surgery Clinic, which includes sleep anesthesia.

    I visited Maison de M Clinic in Gangnam, which is well known for Ultherapy. I spent quite a bit of time researching and booking an appointment because I was curious about the head doctor’s “two-hands” technique, in which he uses both hands to perform the treatment with precision—and it exceeded my expectations. Before the procedure, the doctor personally examined my face and carefully mapped out the treatment lines to prevent hollowing in my cheeks, which gave me a deep sense of trust. Thanks to the numbing cream and pain-free injection system, the treatment was more bearable than I expected, and because it was done so delicately, I was left with almost no bruising from the injection needles afterward. I was also very satisfied with the pleasant facilities, including a private treatment room for one person and even a jewelry box for personal belongings. They did recommend getting slightly more shots during the consultation, but thanks to the doctor’s outstanding skill and kindness, I’m 100% willing to come back.

    I've been going to another dermatology clinic regularly, but there was no comparison for Ultherapy, so I searched for another hospital to try. After the consultation, I decided to go ahead and have the treatment. The doctor was super friendly and explained everything well, and the consultation was very thorough. They also applied the anesthesia carefully using a machine. During the procedure, I hardly felt any pain, so I was able to communicate with the doctor and ask for a bit more intensity. It was a bearable pain, haha. I'm someone who usually tolerates pain well, so I guess my face is optimized for procedures, haha. I received 400 shots of Ultherapy and 600 shots of Thermage, and personally, I felt that Thermage was a bit more painful than Ultherapy. Ultherapy didn’t hurt at all. The pain from Thermage was enough to make my face scrunch up a bit... The doctor checked in on my pain levels throughout the procedure and made sure to be meticulous with each shot. I had the treatment in the morning, and now I'm writing this review before bed. Other than a slight tingling sensation around my jawline, there’s no swelling or any side effects at all. My skin feels tighter, haha. Of course, I know the best effects will show in 1-2 months, but it already feels better, haha. Also, the nurses and the front desk staff, including the manager, were all so kind and friendly, which made the experience really pleasant. I'm satisfied~^^

    I had Ultherapy Prime done. But it wasn't just any treatment; I got an AI diagnosis first, which recommended the most effective procedure for my double chin. It was cool to get diagnosed through the AI program, and the staff were super friendly. The treatment was done in private rooms, so I was able to apply numbing cream and relax comfortably. The doctor didn't just jump in; he took the time to design everything carefully and even addressed the asymmetrical areas. After the treatment, they provided me with the AI test results from the diagnosis, which was great because I could revisit the recommended procedures at home. I can already see my line starting to lift, and I can understand why this is so popular.

    I just had Ultherapy and blemish removal treatment done. This is my second visit; I came here when they first opened and I was so satisfied that I came back. (The photos are before treatment with the numbing cream applied.) The doctor is extremely kind and very thorough with the procedures. 😭🙏🏻 This time, I saw the effects of the Ultherapy almost immediately, and I'm really pleased! Hehe. And every time I come, I feel like the facilities are so nice that it feels like I'm getting proper treatment. Haha, it's comfortable to lie down and browse on my phone, and there's a subtle nice smell coming from the treatment area. I really want to know what that fragrance is! The bed is super soft, and it definitely feels like they care a lot about cleanliness. Even though the doctor was busy, he still took the time to pay attention to each patient, which is impressive.

    I received friendly treatment from consultation to procedure. I got 300 shots of Ultherapy and 60 kj of titanium… I was really worried it would hurt, but thanks to the numbing cream, one side of my cheek was actually pain-free. However, when it came to the other cheek, I’m not sure if the numbing wore off a bit, but it hurt a little. I wanted to stop a few times, but I was able to finish it. After the treatment, I felt a tightness, maybe because of the laser device or the titanium, I'm not sure. On the second day, I didn't notice much difference before and after, but when I touch my jaw, it feels tender, and when I don't touch it, there's no pain. Since Ultherapy takes about four weeks to show results, I plan to wait while dieting and hydrating. I hope for good results… I pray for it. The staff who handled the consultation, applied the numbing cream before the procedure, assisted the doctor during the treatment, and did the final calming pack were all friendly.

    I just had the Ultherapy Prime 400 shots treatment, which is part of a New Year's event at Beauty Bar Plastic Surgery Clinic. I'm a woman in my late 30s, and I've been worried about sagging facial contours and loss of elasticity, so I decided to visit for lifting treatment. Since it was an event treatment, I initially had concerns about its effectiveness and aftercare, but ultimately, it was a very satisfying experience. The clinic is conveniently located and easy to find via public transportation, and the interior had a clean and organized atmosphere. The waiting area was also comfortable, so I didn’t feel too tense, and the staff was calm and friendly, which made a good first impression. I had my consultation with Director Kim Eun-yeon, who carefully checked my current skin condition and the level of elasticity loss, and she explained in detail the expected effects and scope of the Ultherapy Prime 400 shots, which built my trust. Before the treatment, they applied enough numbing cream to reduce the concern about pain, and during the procedure, Director Kim Eun-yeon continuously checked in on the intensity and pain levels, so I felt reassured. There was a prickly sensation, but it was tolerable, and the overall treatment time was shorter than I expected, which lessened the burden. Immediately after the treatment, I could already feel that my jawline and facial contours were more refined, and I experienced hardly any swelling or discomfort that would interfere with daily life. Despite it being an event treatment, the entire process from consultation to treatment was systematic, and I was satisfied with the results, which has made me consider returning. I believe I can recommend Beauty Bar Plastic Surgery Clinic and Director Kim Eun-yeon's Ultherapy Prime treatment to anyone wanting a natural lifting effect.

    I think that for lifting procedures like Ultherapy, who performs it and how is more important than the price, so I visited based on a friend's recommendation. I watched videos of the head doctor’s style and approach beforehand on YouTube, and I found that their emphasis on natural and sophisticated facial contours matched well with what I was looking for, which is why I decided to visit. The consultation was conducted by the head doctor themselves, who carefully checked my facial shape, muscles, and skin elasticity. They explained that combining Ultherapy with Botox for my square jaw would give my face a more natural and refined line, which made me trust their expertise. After the procedure, my jawline was more defined, and overall my face looked slimmer and firmer. I was very satisfied because I felt that I naturally looked younger without an overly tight feeling or artificial changes, while maintaining the original vibe of my face. During the procedure, they continuously checked my condition, which reassured me, and the result met my expectation of feeling ‘pretty without being obvious.’ I would like to recommend this to anyone looking for a natural and elegant facial contour.
