RF lifting in Seoul — Tuneface and Thermage FLX | RF Lifting Korea, MILI Clinic Dosan

Which lifting treatment?

That is the wrong order — decide what you want to change first. Descent of the jawline points to Ultherapy, overall laxity and texture to Thermage, and Tuneface sits usefully between them. Most patients over 35 benefit from a sequence rather than one device.

3D scanning before every plan

The outcome depends on how precisely skin condition is read beforehand. 3D stereoscopic imaging captures facial shape and per-zone skin thickness objectively, rather than relying on visual estimation.

Energy allocated, not distributed evenly

A fixed total energy is divided according to the individual map, so thicker and thinner zones receive appropriately different delivery.

튠페이스

Tuneface

40.68MHz radiofrequency, officially certified centre, with 3D scanning before design.

Korean name	튠페이스
Device	Accent Prime® (Tuneface protocol) — 40.68MHz RF + ultrasound
Regulatory status	MFDS-approved medical device
Depth	Selective dermal and subdermal layers by handpiece
Session	20–40 minutes
Downtime	Minimal; slight vacuum marking possible, managed with pre- and post-care
Anaesthesia	Usually none required; topical cream by request

Tuneface uses 40.68MHz radiofrequency — a frequency chosen because it is absorbed efficiently by the collagen-rich layers — combined with ultrasound energy for an immediate lifting effect. MILI Clinic Dosan is an officially certified Tuneface centre, and treatment follows a 1:1 custom Tune Plan rather than a fixed programme.

Vacuum-mark prevention protocolLymphatic activation and hydration care before treatment measurably reduces both redness and the vacuum marking that the tip can leave.

Questions

Will I have swelling or marks afterwards?

Swelling is generally absent. Sensitive skin may show fine swelling that others would not notice, and this typically resolves within 1–2 days. Vacuum marks from the tip can be minimised with the clinic's pre- and post-treatment protocol — lymphatic circulation care and adequate hydration before the session noticeably reduce redness.

How long does the result last?

A single session generally maintains for roughly six months to a year. Ageing does not stop, so one session reduces the visible degree of ageing and the process then resumes from that point. A course of three sessions at monthly intervals typically holds for a year or longer. Individual variation is significant.

Can it be combined with Ultherapy or Thermage?

Yes, and it commonly is. Because the three devices act on different depths and tissue types, combining them allows each to be used at a lower dose while covering more of the ageing picture.

써마지 FLX

Thermage FLX

Monopolar radiofrequency for skin tightening across the full face in one session.

Korean name	써마지 FLX
Device	Thermage FLX® (Solta Medical)
Regulatory status	US FDA-cleared; MFDS-approved in Korea
Depth	Dermis to subcutaneous layer, volumetric heating
Session	30–50 minutes
Downtime	None to minimal. Transient redness may last a few hours.
Anaesthesia	Topical cream; sedation available by request

Thermage heats the dermis and the fibrous septae below it with monopolar radiofrequency, causing immediate collagen contraction and triggering a remodelling response that continues for months. Unlike ultrasound, radiofrequency treats a broad volume rather than discrete focal points, which is why it suits overall skin laxity and texture more than a single sagging vector.

Genuine tips, counted and verifiedEach Thermage tip carries a fixed shot count and cannot be refilled legitimately. MILI Clinic uses genuine tips only, and the tip is opened in front of the patient on request.
Full coverage, no shortcutsUnder-delivering shots across the treatment area is the most common reason a Thermage result disappoints. The mapped grid is completed in full.
Contact cooling and comfort managementThe handpiece cools the epidermis with each pulse. Energy is titrated to your feedback rather than run at a fixed setting.

Questions

How is Thermage different from Ultherapy?

Thermage uses radiofrequency to heat a broad volume of dermis, which improves overall laxity, pore appearance and skin texture. Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound to reach the deeper SMAS layer at specific depths, which addresses sagging and jawline definition. They act on different layers and are frequently combined rather than chosen against each other.

How long do results last?

Most patients see the effect maintained for roughly 12 to 18 months, though ageing continues throughout. Individual results vary with skin condition, age and lifestyle.

Is there any downtime?

Generally none. Mild redness or warmth may be present for a few hours, and normal activities including makeup can usually be resumed the same day.
