The reason for measuring skin thickness with an expensive ultrasound machine -

The reason for purchasing an expensive ultrasound separately to examine the skin is for more accurate results.

Hello, I am Director Kim Ga-eul. Many people ask this question. 'Do you really measure skin thickness with ultrasound?' Yes, that's correct.

And this process is a very important step that determines the accuracy of the Ultherapy procedure.

✴️Skin thickness is different for everyone

Even within the same face, the skin thickness varies by area.

For example, the structure of the cheeks, forehead, and jawline is different.

Also, even on the same body part, the amount of skin thickness and subcutaneous fat varies from person to person.

Therefore, the concept of "just shooting at a predetermined depth"

is actually hard to consider as an accurate lifting method.

🎯 Ultherapy is all about 'depth'

Ultherapy is a device that accurately delivers ultrasound energy

to a specific depth.

If the tip is marked with 4.5mm as shown in the above photo,

it means targeting a depth of 4.5mm from the skin surface.

This is almost at the same depth as the 5mm (0.5cm) point seen on the ultrasound screen.

In other words,

after checking the current thickness of my skin and the position of the fat layer with ultrasound,

you have to choose the appropriate tip to reach the desired layer (SMAS layer) precisely.

🫧Reasons for viewing ultrasound Even for the same person, as shown in the above screen, the thickness of subcutaneous fat can vary depending on weight changes, swelling, and fat condition.

Therefore, real-time confirmation before the procedure is important.

💰 Reasons why Ultherapy is expensive

Ultherapy is not a cheap procedure. Usually, it costs over 1 million won for 300 shots. For that reason,

✔ checking the layers with ultrasound, ✔ selecting the appropriate tip for each area, and ✔ adjusting the depth must be included

to finally achieve ‘accurate Ultherapy’. If a place is excessively cheap based only on cost,

there is a possibility that they might not see the ultrasound sufficiently or not carefully change the tips for each area.

💫Summary of today

Ultherapy is not just about the number of shots

but about where, at what depth, and how accurately it enters. is the key.

The reason for viewing the ultrasound is simple.

It is to achieve the safest and most accurate lifting suitable for my skin condition.
