Non-Surgical Deep Lifting at Lalian Cheongdam
Ultherapy Prime is the only FDA-cleared non-invasive treatment that targets the SMAS layer — the same deep tissue layer addressed in surgical facelifts.

Deep Skin Tightening & Firming at Lalian Cheongdam

How It Works
The Mechanism
Collagen is the scaffolding of your skin.
Thermage rebuilds it from the inside.
As skin ages, the collagen network in the dermis — the thick structural layer just beneath the surface — gradually weakens and fragments. The result is skin that feels softer, looser, and less resilient. Surface treatments can't reach this layer. Thermage FLX can.
Using monopolar radiofrequency energy, Thermage FLX delivers precisely calibrated heat into the full depth of the dermis. This controlled thermal effect causes existing collagen fibers to contract immediately — producing an instant tightening effect — while simultaneously triggering a long-term wound healing response that generates fresh, dense collagen over the following months.
What makes Thermage FLX different from other RF devices is its patented AccuREP™ technology, which measures the skin's resistance in real time and automatically adjusts energy delivery with every pulse. The result: consistent, even heating across the entire treatment area — not hot spots, not missed zones. Just uniform collagen renewal.

RECOMMENDED FREQUENCY | Repeated at 1–2 week intervals until target contour is reached |
WHERE IT WORKS
Best Targeted Areas
Thermage FLX uses interchangeable tips optimized for different treatment zones — each calibrated for the specific tissue depth and density of that area.
01
Brow & Forehead
Lifts a heavy or drooping brow line to open up the eye area — one of the most requested treatments among our international patients.
02
Jawline & Lower Face
Tightens and defines a softened jawline, reducing early jowl formation for a sharper, more sculpted profile.
03
Under-Chin & Submental Area
Firms loose skin under the chin without surgery — especially effective when combined with LALICut fat dissolving for a complete contouring result.
04
Neck & Décolletage
Smooths horizontal neck lines and improves skin laxity on the chest — often overlooked areas that reveal age early.
01
Eyes & Eyelids
The only FDA-approved non-invasive treatment for upper and lower eyelid tightening. Specialized 0.25cm² tip designed specifically for the delicate periorbital area — reducing hooding, crepiness, and fine wrinkles without surgery.
02
Full Face & Jawline
Tightens loose skin around cheeks and jawline, smooths nasolabial folds, and refines the overall facial contour. The 3.0cm² and 4.0cm² tips cover larger facial areas with consistent energy delivery.
03
Neck & Décolletage
Addresses horizontal neck lines, "tech neck" sagging, and chest skin laxity — areas that age early and are often overlooked in standard skincare routines.
04
Body
The 16.0cm² body tip treats larger areas like the abdomen, arms, thighs, and above-the-knee laxity — re-tightening skin after weight loss or age-related loosening
THE LALIAN DIFFERENCE
Why Lalian for thermage flx
Every Session, Led by Dr. Kang
At many clinics, Thermage is delegated to technicians. At Lalian, Dr. Jiyoun Kang — Clinical Professor at Yonsei University Health System — personally operates the handpiece, reads the tissue feedback from AccuREP™ in real time, and adjusts the protocol as your skin responds. The difference between a technician's session and a physician's session is the difference between a preset template and a live diagnosis.
02
3D MetaView Before Every Treatment
Before the first pulse, Dr. Kang maps your facial structure, skin thickness, and areas of laxity with a full 3D MetaView assessment. This determines which tip sizes to use, where to concentrate energy, and which areas to skip. Your protocol is designed for your anatomy — not by shot count.
Lalian does not sell Ultherapy by shot count. We design each session by tissue response — placing energy where your skin needs it, skipping where it doesn't. Fewer unnecessary shots means less discomfort and better results.
03
Single-Session Excellence
Thermage FLX is designed to deliver full results in one session — making it one of the most time-efficient treatments for patients visiting Seoul on a short trip. No series of appointments, no return visits. One session, one result, planned around your schedule.

COMBINATION CARE
Synergy Protocols
PROTOCOL 01
Ul-Thermage: Lift + Tighten
Lalian's signature combination. Ultherapy Prime lifts the deep SMAS layer; Thermage FLX tightens the surface dermis. Together, they deliver facelift-level results without surgery — addressing both structural sagging and surface laxity in a single treatment plan.
PROTOCOL 02
Thermage + Sculptra: Tighten + Volumize
Thermage firms the skin surface; Sculptra rebuilds lost volume from within by stimulating your own collagen production. The combination restores both firmness and fullness — especially effective for patients experiencing volume loss alongside laxity.
PROTOCOL 03
Thermage + Rejuran: Firmness + Glow
After tightening with Thermage, layering Rejuran skin boosters accelerates skin repair and improves texture, hydration, and luminosity from the surface level — giving the tightened skin a polished, radiant finish.

COMMON QUESTIONS
FAQ — Thermage FLX at Lalian Cheongdam
Most patients describe a brief, deep warming sensation with each pulse. The Thermage FLX handpiece includes a built-in vibration and cooling system that keeps the skin surface comfortable throughout the session. At Lalian, Dr. Kang also adjusts energy levels in real time based on your comfort and tissue response.
Thermage FLX uses monopolar radiofrequency to tighten the dermal layer for surface firmness and skin texture improvement. Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound to lift the deeper SMAS layer for structural repositioning. They work on different layers and complement each other — which is why Lalian offers the Ul-Thermage combination protocol for comprehensive results.
Some tightening is visible immediately after treatment. Results continue to improve over 3 to 6 months as new collagen matures, and can last up to 2 years depending on skin condition and lifestyle. Most patients return once a year for a maintenance session.
Downtime is minimal. Some patients experience slight redness or mild swelling that typically resolves within 24 hours. You can return to your normal routine, apply makeup, and go about your day immediately after treatment.
