Sio Clinic V-Ro Lifting

Pain and Effects

Hello, this is Sio Clinic near Seongsu Acro Forest.

​

There are times when you feel deep concern because your facial lines don't look like they used to when you look in the mirror. When you feel your skin losing elasticity and your mouth or jawline sagging, you naturally think of lifting procedures.

​

There are many devices on the market, but when it comes to choosing one, you are bound to worry about how painful it will be and whether it will provide the right results for you.

​

Today, we will take a detailed look at the features and principles of V-Ro Lifting, which has been receiving a lot of attention recently compared to Ulthera and Shurink, the synonymous names in lifting, and what you must know before deciding on the procedure.

The Evolution of Lifting Technology and V-Ro Features

Usually, lifting devices are divided into two main categories. One is a method that uses ultrasound (HIFU) to contract the deep fascia layer, and the other is a method that uses radiofrequency (RF) to help with the elasticity of the skin surface.

​

​

If Ulthera and Shurink correspond to the former, V-Ro Lifting is a device designed to deliver both of these energies simultaneously from a single handpiece.

Our skin has different structures

and roles in each layer.

Therefore, rather than stimulating only one layer, it is more advantageous for elasticity improvement to deliver energy densely from the dermis to the deep fascia layer.

​

V-Ro uses a method of alternating ultrasound and radiofrequency to efficiently deliver thermal energy while reducing excessive stimulation to the skin surface.

​

This combined procedure method does not just lift sagging areas but helps to cultivate the skin density itself to be firm. Thanks to this, rather than an artificial pulled feeling after the procedure, you can expect a feeling where your natural lines are neatly organized.

Understanding the Differences Between Ulthera, Shurink, and V-Ro

Many people ask, "How is it different from Ulthera?" or "How does it compare to Shurink?"

​

To start with the conclusion, each device

has different energy delivery methods and strengths.

Ulthera is specialized in increasing retention by concentrating strong ultrasound energy into deep layers, but you may feel a stinging pain during the procedure.

Shurink is similar in principle to Ulthera but is designed to be more accessible to the general public. However, both of these devices share the commonality of focusing on a single ultrasound energy.

On the other hand, the key to V-Ro Lifting

is that radiofrequency energy is used in parallel.

It is easy to understand if you think of ultrasound as playing the role of building the pillars of a house structure, while radiofrequency plays the role of densely filling the walls. In other words, you can secure the support of the deep layers while simultaneously managing the elasticity of the outer skin, making it easy to expect a synergistic effect.

​

At Sio Clinic, we carefully adjust this energy combination according to the patient's skin thickness and fat distribution.

​

Technical Consideration to Reduce Discomfort

One of the biggest reasons for hesitating about lifting procedures is the discomfort felt during the process. Some people give up on regular maintenance due to the fear of pain. V-Ro Lifting is a device designed with these concerns in mind.

​

One of the features of V-Ro is that it is

equipped with a detection sensor.

It adjusts energy when the handpiece falls off or stops on the skin during the procedure to prevent unnecessary stimulation.

Also, because it delivers energy continuously in small increments rather than shooting it strongly at once, the immediate stimulation felt by the skin is relatively less.

​

Many people finish the procedure without much discomfort with just topical anesthesia, and since there is less bruising after the procedure, it is a suitable alternative for those who need to return to daily life immediately. At our Sio Clinic, those who have received the procedure often tell us that it was "more comfortable than expected."

​

Pen-type Handpiece for Detailed Procedures

The face is not a flat surface but a three-dimensional structure with many curves. In particular, the areas around the eyes, mouth, and nasolabial folds are thin and narrow, making it difficult to adhere closely with existing large cartridges. Forcing a procedure on narrow areas can sometimes increase pain.

V-Ro Lifting also uses a narrow handpiece

that looks like a pen.

Thanks to this, it can closely adhere to curved areas or narrow surfaces to deliver energy. The advantage of V-Ro is that it can delicately refine fine wrinkles around the eyes, sagging eyelid lines, and areas next to the mouth.

​

Our clinic uses a method of first organizing the overall lines and then using this pen-type device to detail the localized areas of concern once more. You can understand this as a process of paying attention to even the minute parts without breaking the harmony of the entire face.

The Process of Change and Recommended Management Direction

Lifting procedures are closer to a signal flare that helps the skin become healthy on its own rather than magic that changes everything at once.

This is because it takes physical time for collagen in the skin to regenerate. After the V-Ro Lifting procedure, you may feel that your lines are organized due to the immediate contraction caused by thermal energy in the early stages.

​

​

However, the true change is felt in earnest about 4 weeks after the procedure. As new collagen is formed in the stimulated dermis, the skin gradually becomes denser and elasticity fills in. Usually, consistent management at intervals of 3 to 6 months can help maintain elasticity, and the interval of the procedure may vary depending on the skin condition.

The important thing is that too much is as bad as too little.

Rather than performing the procedure too often or too strongly, it is desirable to provide appropriate stimulation according to your skin's regeneration speed. We suggest a plan suitable for each individual's lifestyle and skin condition through consultation.

Post-Procedure Aftercare Guide

The results of the procedure at Sio Clinic near Seongsu Acro Forest can vary depending on aftercare.

​

After the V-Ro Lifting procedure, it is recommended to avoid using very cold packs or washing your face with cold water for a few days so that the thermal energy delivered into the skin can be well maintained. This is because collagen formation is smoother when warm heat is maintained.

​

​

Also, on the day of the procedure, refrain from strenuous exercise, saunas, and drinking alcohol, and drinking plenty of water will help with skin recovery. Occasionally, the treated area may throb or have mild swelling, but this is a phenomenon that can occur during the process of energy delivery and usually subsides naturally within a few days, so you don't need to worry.

​

Please be sure to apply sunscreen. Since the skin is using energy for regeneration after a lifting procedure, it is important to protect the skin from external stimuli. If you apply sunscreen thoroughly when going out, you can maintain the procedure effect more cleanly.

The Importance of Individualized Diagnosis

The performance of the device is important, but ultimately, how you use that device determines the result.

Even if you use the same V-Ro Lifting device,

satisfaction varies depending on which area

and with what intensity you distribute the energy.

If you perform the procedure without understanding the face's fat volume, muscle movement, and skin thickness, it may not meet your expectations. Sio Clinic aims for a non-surgical method that diagnoses each patient's face and adjusts energy where elasticity is needed.

​

Helping the skin's natural power is the direction we pursue. We do not recommend excessive procedures and only guide you to methods where you can expect appropriate changes in your current state.

​

Everyone has the same desire to cultivate beauty in the process of aging.

Lifting is not just about erasing wrinkles,

but also a process of taking care of yourself

and filling yourself with confidence.

I hope the information introduced today has become a small clue to your concerns. If you have been hesitating due to worries about pain or looking unnatural, you can now receive a consultation with a comfortable mind.

​

Sio Clinic will always be here to listen to your concerns and help you maintain your beauty in a healthy way.
