LIFTING LASERS & SKIN TIGHTENING IN SEOUL
WOOA Dermatology sits on the 10th and 12th floors of HM Tower in Gangnam, a short walk from Sinnonhyeon Station, and offers doctor-planned lifting and skin-tightening treatments for patients from Korea and abroad.
Quick answer: WOOA Dermatology in Gangnam treats early sagging, loss of firmness and fine lines with a range of non-surgical lifting devices, including Ultherapy, Thermage FLX, Sofwave, Titanium, Tune and Onda. A doctor assesses your skin first and then chooses the device, depth and energy level, alone or combined, to suit your face.
WHY CHOOSE NON-SURGICAL LIFTING?
Facial sagging starts beneath the surface, as collagen thins and the supporting layers loosen with age. Energy-based lifting devices heat these layers at a chosen depth so the skin rebuilds collagen and firms up on its own. Most of these treatments need little or no downtime, which makes them a practical option for people who want a natural-looking lift without surgery. At WOOA, the treatment plan, not just the machine, is what matters: our doctors map energy, depth and pattern to each patient.
OUR LIFTING TREATMENTS
- Lifting Center: an overview of WOOA’s multi-lifting approach, from surgical lifting to device-based treatments.
- Ultherapy: focused ultrasound aimed at the deep SMAS layer, offered at WOOA as a two-device “Dual Ultherapy” programme.
- Thermage: 4th-generation Thermage FLX radiofrequency to tighten the dermis and refine skin texture.
- Sofwave: ultrasound energy delivered to the mid-dermis (around 1.5mm) to firm skin and soften fine lines.
- Titanium Lifting: a three-wavelength laser that lifts, tightens and brightens with virtually no downtime.
- Tune Lifting: combined ultrasound and radiofrequency for elasticity, pores and texture.
- Onda Lifting: microwave energy that firms the skin and reduces localised fat in one session.
- Laser Lifting: Density, Volnewmer, Oligio, Shurink, InMode and Liftera2, chosen to match your skin.
COMBINING TREATMENTS
Because each device works at a different depth, they are often paired. Ultherapy lifts from the SMAS layer, Thermage tightens the dermis and Titanium also evens out tone, so a combined plan can address several concerns at once. Your doctor will explain which pairing, if any, makes sense for you.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Which lifting laser is right for me?
That depends on how thick your skin is, where it is sagging, how much fat sits underneath and how much downtime you can accept. A WOOA doctor reviews these points with you one to one and then recommends a single device or a combination.
Can I have a lifting treatment during a short trip to Seoul?
Yes. Most lifting lasers allow you to return to normal activities the same day, so they fit easily into a short visit. WOOA is a government-approved centre for international patients, with interpreters available to help.
When will I see results?
Many patients notice some tightening straight away. Collagen then continues to rebuild over the following weeks to months, so the effect usually improves gradually.
