For treatments that may cause discomfort, we apply the Liftique pain-free system.
(are provided at no additional cost and tailored to each patient)
Sedation is available if needed; it requires 8 hours of fasting and costs ₩200,000 (excluding VAT).
It varies by treatment.
With Ulthera Prime and Thermage FLX, collagen remodels over 1–3 months with gradual improvement, and results are generally reported to last around a year. Fillers vary by type, and Botox lasts roughly 3–4 months.
You can check the "onset and duration" section on each treatment page. Individual results vary.
It depends on the treatment.
Please refer to the "recommended sessions" section on each treatment page. At your consultation we will suggest a realistic plan based on your skin condition.
Most treatments allow you to return to daily life immediately afterwards.
Ulthera, Thermage and Onda may cause temporary redness or swelling, but this subsides naturally within a few days.
However, CO2 laser, thread lifting and combined acne-scar procedures require more downtime.
If your travel dates are set, let us know at your consultation and we will recommend treatments that fit your schedule.
It varies by treatment type and by individual.
With injections and fillers, mild swelling or bruising typically settles within a few days.
If bruising remains or you have an important engagement, bruise laser (GV) treatment can speed up recovery (from ₩70,000 per session for a localised area).
For non-invasive lifting such as Ulthera and Thermage, make-up is possible immediately after treatment. For injections, fillers and skin boosters we recommend avoiding make-up on the day and resuming from the following day, to prevent infection at needle sites. For ablative treatments such as CO2 laser, make-up is possible once the crusting has cleared (typically 5–7 days).
Light everyday activity is generally possible from the same day.
However, after injections and fillers we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, saunas and alcohol for 2–3 days to prevent swelling and bruising from worsening. After thread lifting, excessive facial movement and exercise are restricted for about 1–2 weeks.
For most treatments, including Ulthera, Thermage and Botox, flying on the same day or the next day poses no problem.
For fillers and skin boosters we recommend allowing 1–2 days so swelling can be monitored.
For treatments with downtime, tell us your departure date at your consultation and we will plan accordingly.
Every medical procedure carries the possibility of side effects.
At Liftique we check fat thickness and fascia depth by area with ultrasound before treatment, and combine genuine transducers to design energy by depth for each individual, preventing volume loss and burns. For Eye Thermage, we review the anatomical structure and fit an eye shield where necessary.
At your consultation we will go through your individual risk factors together.
It depends on the treatment and the area.
Ulthera and Thermage take 30 minutes to an hour depending on the number of shots, Eye Thermage takes 20–30 minutes, and injection and care treatments are generally shorter.
You can check the "treatment time" section on each treatment page.
Ulthera Prime uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to create thermal coagulation points in the SMAS layer, helping improve the elasticity of sagging skin. It suits those who want lifting that starts from the deeper tissue layers — a collapsing jawline, double chin or sagging cheeks.
Thermage FLX is a tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) to induce collagen contraction and regeneration in the dermis and subdermal tissue. It suits those whose skin has thinned and lost firmness, or who want to improve fine lines, pores and skin texture.
The two have different purposes and are often combined. After precise diagnosis with 2D Mark-Vu and 3D EVE MUSE, a board-certified dermatologist designs the treatment personally.
We use only genuine equipment and single-use genuine tips.
The number of shots depends on the option you choose: Ulthera Prime ranges from 100 shots at ₩500,000 to 1,000 shots at ₩3,600,000, and Thermage FLX is ₩2,390,000 for 600 shots (full face) and ₩3,390,000 for 900 shots (full face + neck), excluding VAT.
Before treatment we check fat thickness and fascia depth by area with ultrasound, then combine 1.5/3.0/4.5mm transducers to design the shot distribution by depth for each individual.
A board-certified dermatologist consults with you and designs the treatment personally. Using the 2D Mark-Vu and 3D EVE MUSE precision diagnostic systems, the areas that must not lose volume and the areas to focus on are determined before treatment — a departure from uniform, high-volume treatment.
Rather than a simple price comparison, we explain what the treatment includes. At Liftique a board-certified dermatologist consults with you and performs the treatment personally, and analyzes your skin condition closely before treatment using 2D Mark-Vu and 3D EVE MUSE clinical imaging.
The price also includes, at no extra cost, the four-part pain-free system before treatment (numbing cream, painless injection, nerve block, oral analgesics) and aftercare.
Because the practitioner, the analysis process and the included care all differ, a simple price comparison is difficult — so at your consultation we set out transparently what is included.
Nodules are a known side effect of Sculptra, but Liftique applies a four-step protocol to prevent them:
After treatment we advise 5·5·5 massage from day four (five times a day, five minutes each, for five days).
Our director's philosophy is "care that protects the beauty that is already yours, for longer, rather than changing your face." Precise diagnosis before treatment determines in advance which areas must not lose volume and which to focus on, so the design is never excessive. At your consultation we will discuss thoroughly how much change you want.
We use only genuine equipment and genuine treatment materials, with single-use genuine tips. On request, we will confirm authenticity with you at the time of treatment.
In most cases yes, but some medications — anticoagulants such as aspirin, or isotretinoin (Roaccutane) — may require adjustment depending on the treatment. Tell us what you are taking at your consultation and the doctor will check and advise.
Treatment for medical purposes, such as acne, is possible with the consent of a guardian.
Yes.
You can follow up through the same channel you used for your treatment — English WhatsApp (+82 10-8078-3829), Chinese WeChat/WhatsApp (+82 10-8164-2830), and LINE for Taiwan and Japan.
Send us photos of how things are progressing and the doctor will review them and advise on what to do, including whether you need to visit a clinic locally.
Aftercare is included with our main treatments.
Ulthera Prime and Thermage FLX include LDM+LED aftercare (excluding the 1.5 tip for the eye area and body, and Eye Thermage), and Ulthera 600 shots and Thermage FLX include a collagen velvet mask.
What is included for each treatment is shown in the price section of the relevant treatment page.
Yes. A board-certified dermatologist consults with you and then designs the treatment. Because we confirm your skin condition through 2D Mark-Vu and 3D EVE MUSE precision diagnosis and then decide the design area by area, we do not proceed with treatment without a consultation.
Depending on availability, treatment on the same day as your consultation is often possible.
However, if you are visiting from overseas we recommend booking in advance to secure your slot, and for treatments requiring sedation we will let you know beforehand as 8 hours of fasting is needed.
Letting us know the treatments you are interested in, your preferred visit date and time, and your preferred consultation language helps us respond faster. If you also send a photo of the area you are concerned about, we can give you more specific advice.
You can reach us on WhatsApp (English +82 10-8078-3829 / Chinese +82 10-8164-2830), LINE (Taiwan liftique0114 / Japan 756wjqst), WeChat (liftique0114) and email (liftique@naver.com).
In addition to the above, letting us know how long you will be in Korea (your arrival and departure dates) allows us to advise on treatments and recovery time that fit your schedule. Tell us your preferred language and we will respond in that language.
