Ultherapy

in Korea, Seoul, Gangnam


Gangnam is globally recognized for advanced ultrasound-based lifting technologies performed with precision and medical expertise. Ultherapy is a non-surgical skin lifting and tightening treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to lift sagging skin and improve facial contours.


1. What is Ultherapy?

Ultherapy uses micro-focused ultrasound with real-time imaging to deliver energy deep into the skin’s foundational layers (SMAS), stimulating collagen production without damaging the surface.

  • Deep SMAS Targeting:
    Reaches the same layer addressed in surgical facelifts.

    Triggers natural collagen and elastin production over time.
  • Non-Invasive Technology:
    No incisions, injections, or downtime.
