Thermage Didn't Work for You — Was It the Energy Level or the Wrong Layer?
At Gangnam Choice Clinic, the consultation first determines which layer the energy should reach rather than simply raising the intensity. For areas that need extra work, such as the jawline and the jowls, shots are stacked on the key points during treatment, and the change is visible in a half-face comparison.
If your face looks no different two months after Thermage, the problem is often not too little energy but energy delivered to the wrong layer. At Gangnam Choice Clinic, the assessment first identifies the areas that truly need extra work, and then decides where the shots should go.
Is more energy always better?
No. Stronger is not better; what matters is hitting the right layer.
Some people feel strong pain during treatment elsewhere yet see no change two months later. In such cases, the cause is usually found in the layer and the key areas, not in adding more energy.
Which areas need extra work?
The jawline and the jowls are the two areas that most often need extra work.
After the assessment, the doctor at our clinic judges the condition of these two areas and stacks shots on the key points during treatment rather than spreading them evenly over the whole face.
After treatment, how do you tell whether anything has changed?
After treating half the face, you can see the difference by comparing it in the mirror.
During treatment, our clinic has you compare the treated side directly with the other side, and the lift along the jawline is visible on the spot; the pain is also not as strong as you might expect.
Our clinic is located in Gangnam, Seoul, and the doctor performs every treatment personally, one-on-one.
