What it is and how it is done

The treatment takes about 20 to 30 minutes.
Face washing and light makeup are possible from the day of treatment.
While energy is delivered, a cooling system protects the skin surface and reduces excessive heat and discomfort.
Right after treatment, a temporary tightening sensation may be felt.
How long the effects last depends on skin condition, the degree of aging and lifestyle, but they generally last about 6 to 12 months.
After that, maintenance treatment can be planned for you after checking your skin elasticity and contours.
Pain and heat vary from person to person.
Warmth or a brief feeling of heat from the radiofrequency energy may be felt during treatment, but a cooling system is used to protect the skin surface and reduce discomfort.
The energy intensity is adjusted to your skin condition and the treated area.
It varies by person, but daily life is generally possible right after treatment.
Temporary redness, heat, mild swelling or tightness may appear, but they generally ease over time.

Treatment time and recovery

Depending on your skin elasticity, maintenance treatment about every 6 to 12 months is recommended.
The recommended interval may vary with how quickly your skin ages and your lifestyle.

Avoid rubbing the treated area too much or having a strong massage.
Temporary redness, warmth, mild swelling or tightness may occur, and it usually eases within a few days.
It is best to avoid saunas, alcohol and strenuous exercise for about 1 week after treatment.
To help the skin recover, keep it well moisturized and protect it from the sun.
Rarely, temporary pain or stiffness may occur, and it eases naturally over time.

At Min Clinic, all medical aesthetic procedures are performed directly by a doctor.
