Hello, this is Dr. Ko Na Young, director of Renewme Skin Clinic Hwagok.

Lately, patients have been showing more and more interest in Thermage for body contouring; most people consider the procedure only for the face, but Thermage uses radiofrequency to stimulate collagen regeneration and tighten the skin, which can help tone the body as well.

I myself have recently noticed my abdomen starting to get a bit flabby, so I decided to receive Thermage treatment from Dr. Ha Ji Hyun of the Jamsil branch.

I was curious as to how painful the procedure would be and started without any anesthesia. However, the treatment was a lot more painful than I had expected and I had to apply numbing cream eventually. :)

Thermage is a simple procedure with minimal recovery time, ideal for patients who can't afford to take a lot of time off from their regular routines. As for myself, my skin tends to be rather sensitive but aside from a little redness I felt no particular discomfort.

I have very thin skin that can be easily prone to wrinkles and sagging. However, 2 months after the procedure I could feel my belly tighten and slim down, so I'm satisfied with the results.

Body Thermage is also suitable for the thighs, arms, and hands - anywhere the skin gets wrinkly or lacks elasticity. Now with a larger tip (handpiece), we can treat wider areas in a shorter period of time, and deliver the energy all the way into the subcutaneous fat layers, which brings much more effective results.

If you've had liposuction, or excess flabby fat from sudden weight loss, or can feel your skin sagging from age, the Body Thermage is a highly recommended procedure. :)
