Lifting and Contouring at Lumir Dermatology,
Guided by Skin Layers and Facial Structure

Facial Aging Appears
Differently in Every Person

Skin thickness and laxity, fat distribution, and the areas where sagging is most noticeable vary from person to person.

At Lumir Dermatology, we look beyond the skin alone and consider facial contours and
overall structure to identify the factors affecting your current appearance and determine treatment priorities.

Treatment Depth and Approach
Based on Facial Structure

Facial Structure Treatment Method Image

The areas that need attention first and the appropriate treatment depth vary depending on facial structure and the direction of sagging.
Based on an understanding of facial anatomy, we select the appropriate treatment devices
and carefully adjust energy depth, intensity, treatment area, and sequence for each part of the face.

Lifting Treatment Grounded in Anatomy
and Advanced Device Training

Lifting treatment involves more than simply using a device.
Understanding facial anatomy and delivering energy
to the appropriate tissue layer are essential parts of treatment planning.
At Lumir Dermatology, our approach is informed by training in
treatment technologies, procedural planning, and layer-by-layer facial anatomy.

Lifting Options Selected According to
Facial Structure and Skin Layers

Rather than relying on a single device, we select and combine treatments based on skin thickness,
the direction of sagging, fat distribution, and the depth that needs to be targeted.

Thermage FLX Equipment Image

Thermage FLX

Delivers radiofrequency energy to the dermal and deeper tissue layers to stimulate collagen remodeling and help improve skin laxity,fine lines, and facial definition.

Precautions After Treatment

  • List Icon1. Temporary redness, warmth, mild swelling,
    or tenderness
    may occur after treatment.
  • List Icon2. Cleansing and makeup are generally permitted, but avoid rubbing or massaging
    the treated areas firmly.
  • List Icon3. While warmth remains in the skin, avoid saunas, hot baths, and strenuous exercise.
  • List Icon4. Keep the skin well moisturized and apply sunscreen carefully when going outdoors.
  • List Icon5. Avoid potentially irritating skincare products such as scrubs, exfoliants,
    and retinol for several days.
  • List Icon6. If you are planning other lifting or injectable treatments, consult your doctor about an appropriate treatment interval.
  • List Icon7. Contact the clinic if severe pain, blistering, altered sensation, or persistent swelling occurs.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We consider skin thickness and laxity, the direction and depth of sagging, and fat distribution to determine the appropriate device, treatment areas, and energy depth and settings.

  • Radiofrequency delivers thermal energy across broader tissue areas to support skin tightening and improve laxity,
    while ultrasound concentrates energy at specific depths to address sagging and facial contours.

  • Most people can return to normal daily activities right away, although temporary redness, swelling,
    or tenderness may occur depending on the device and treatment intensity.

  • Some changes may be noticeable relatively early, while collagen remodeling develops gradually over time.
    The number and frequency of treatments depend on your skin condition and treatment goals.

  • Because each device delivers energy differently and targets different tissue depths, treatments may be combined on the same day or performed at appropriate intervals depending on skin condition and treatment goals.
