Quick answer · What is Non-Surgical Facelift?
A non-surgical facelift combines treatments to lift and firm the face without incisions. Focused ultrasound (Ulthera Prime) tightens the deeper SMAS layer, radiofrequency (Thermage FLX) firms the skin, dissolvable threads add an immediate lift, and collagen stimulators such as Juvelook restore volume. Sessions take about 60–90 minutes, downtime is none to a few days, and results build over two to three months, typically lasting about a year.

How it works
Several layers treated in one plan
A surgical facelift repositions deep tissue and removes skin; a non-surgical facelift aims for a milder version by treating each layer separately. Ultrasound lifts the support layer, radiofrequency tightens the dermis, threads hold tissue in a higher position, and injectables replace volume, so results look refreshed rather than pulled.
-
Full-face assessment
Your doctor evaluates laxity, volume and skin quality and designs a combination plan for your face.
-
Combined treatment
After numbing cream, devices are applied first, followed by threads or injectables where needed.

Lift develops
An initial lift is visible straight away, with further firming over two to three months as collagen forms.

FAQ
Non-Surgical Facelift questions we hear every day
Is a non-surgical facelift as effective as surgery?
No. It gives a milder, gradual lift with far less downtime and risk, and suits mild to moderate sagging. Your doctor will tell you honestly if surgery would serve you better.
Does it hurt?
Numbing cream is applied first. Devices feel like brief deep warmth, and threads and injections feel like pressure and small pinches.
When will I see results?
Threads and injectables show changes immediately, and device tightening builds over two to three months.
How long do results last?
Results typically last around a year, and many patients maintain them with one device session every 12–18 months.
Which treatments are usually combined?
A common plan pairs Ultherapy Prime with Thermage FLX, adding threads or a collagen stimulator if volume loss or deeper sagging needs it.
How much does a non-surgical facelift cost in Myeongdong?
Price depends on the combination of treatments, the areas and the number of shots or threads. The same price list applies to every nationality and is given to you in writing before treatment. See our lifting price list.
