ULTHERAPY IN SEOUL
At WOOA Dermatology in Gangnam, Ultherapy and Ultherapy Prime are performed in a dedicated treatment room using a two-device technique we call Dual Ultherapy.
Quick answer: Ultherapy is an FDA-approved ultrasound device that focuses energy on the deep SMAS layer, where sagging begins, without harming the skin surface. It encourages new collagen to lift and firm the jawline, cheeks and under-eye area. WOOA’s Dual Ultherapy uses two devices at once for faster, more even energy delivery with real-time monitoring of both sides of the face.
HOW ULTHERAPY WORKS
Loss of firmness does not start on the surface; it begins in the SMAS, the fibrous layer that supports the face. Ultherapy targets this layer directly with focused ultrasound, so the lift feels firm yet looks natural. Our doctors treat it as a way to trigger the skin’s own repair process, and plan the tip, depth, number of shots and energy for each patient after assessing both the skin and the underlying fascia.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
When does Ultherapy work best?
It is most effective in the early stages of ageing, when the jawline starts to blur and the cheeks begin to drop, for people who want a subtle lift without surgery.
Is there downtime?
Almost none. Mild redness or a slight tight feeling may appear right after treatment and usually settles within a day.
When will I see results?
Some firming can be felt immediately, while the clearest lift appears over two to three months as new collagen forms.
How is Dual Ultherapy different from standard Ultherapy?
Two devices work at the same time, which makes energy delivery quicker, more even and more precise, and lets the doctor monitor both sides of the face in real time.
Does it hurt?
Sensitivity varies, but Dual Ultherapy generally feels more comfortable than a single-device session because the energy is spread more evenly. Topical or local anaesthesia can be used if needed.
