What Results Can You Expect from Ultherapy Prime?
Ultherapy Prime is the only FDA-cleared non-invasive treatment that lifts skin on the brow, chin, neck, and decolletage. It targets the SMAS layer (the same layer addressed in surgical facelifts) to produce structural lifting with results visible at 2-3 months and lasting 12-24 months.
At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, Ultherapy Prime is our gold-standard lifting treatment. Using micro-focused ultrasound with real-time visualization (MFU-V), our specialists deliver precise energy to three depths: 1.5mm (dermis), 3.0mm (deep dermis), and 4.5mm (SMAS layer). This multi-depth approach triggers collagen contraction and neocollagenesis at every structural level, producing the most comprehensive non-surgical lift available. The treatment is particularly effective for moderate laxity in the lower face, jawline, and neck.

Your Ultherapy Prime Journey at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
From consultation to structural lifting, here is what to expect during your Ultherapy Prime treatment.
Consultation & Ultrasound Mapping
Our specialist conducts a thorough facial assessment and uses the Ultherapy visualization screen to map your tissue layers. This allows precise targeting of the SMAS layer and customization of the treatment protocol to your anatomy.
Comfort Preparation
Topical numbing cream and/or oral analgesics may be provided for comfort. The treatment area is cleansed and ultrasound gel is applied for optimal energy transmission.
Multi-Depth Ultrasound Treatment
The Ultherapy transducer delivers micro-focused ultrasound energy to 1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm depths. Each pulse creates a precise thermal coagulation point. Treatment takes 60-90 minutes for a full-face protocol.
Progressive Structural Lifting
Some immediate tightening may be visible. The primary lifting effect develops over 2-6 months as deep collagen remodeling occurs at the SMAS level. Results continue improving and typically peak at 3-6 months.
Ultherapy Prime Results Timeline
- SMAS-Layer Targeting: Ultherapy is the only non-invasive device that reaches the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) layer at 4.5mm depth, the same structural layer addressed in surgical facelifts.
- FDA-Cleared Lifting: Ultherapy is the only device FDA-cleared specifically for non-invasive lifting of the brow, chin, neck, and decolletage.
- Real-Time Visualization: MFU-V technology allows the practitioner to see tissue layers on screen during treatment, ensuring energy is delivered precisely where it will be most effective.
- Multi-Depth Protocol: Three transducer depths (1.5mm, 3.0mm, 4.5mm) allow comprehensive treatment from the superficial dermis to the SMAS layer in a single session.
- Long-Lasting Results: Deep structural collagen remodeling at the SMAS level produces results that typically last 12-24 months, among the longest of any non-invasive treatment.
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Day 1-7 | Mild swelling, tenderness, and tingling may occur. These are normal signs of the deep healing process. |
| Week 2-4 | Swelling resolves. Initial tightening becomes visible as superficial collagen begins to contract. |
| Month 1-3 | Progressive lifting becomes increasingly apparent. SMAS-level collagen remodeling produces structural improvement. |
| Month 3-6 | Peak results achieved. Maximum lifting from deep collagen remodeling at all treatment depths. Most dramatic improvement visible. |
| Month 12-24 | Results maintained. Annual maintenance sessions recommended to sustain and build upon structural lifting. |

How Ultherapy Prime MFU-V Technology Works
Understanding the micro-focused ultrasound science behind Ultherapy Prime’s unmatched non-invasive lifting capability.
Ultherapy Prime uses Micro-Focused Ultrasound with Visualization (MFU-V) to deliver precise thermal energy to specific tissue depths. Unlike other ultrasound devices, Ultherapy focuses energy to create discrete Thermal Coagulation Points (TCPs) at exact depths of 1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm.
The 4.5mm transducer is uniquely significant because it reaches the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) layer, the fibrous tissue sheet that connects facial muscles to the skin. This is the same layer that plastic surgeons tighten during facelift surgery. By creating TCPs at the SMAS level, Ultherapy triggers structural contraction and remodeling that produces genuine architectural lifting.
The visualization component allows the practitioner to see tissue layers in real-time on the device screen. This ensures that energy is delivered precisely to the target depth, avoiding structures that should not be treated (such as bone or major vessels) and confirming that the SMAS layer is being accurately targeted.
Each TCP heats tissue to 60-70 degrees Celsius, denaturing collagen and initiating the wound healing cascade. Over the following months, fibroblasts produce new, tightly organized collagen fibers at all three treatment depths. This multi-layer collagen remodeling produces the progressive, structural lifting that makes Ultherapy results among the most dramatic and long-lasting of any non-invasive treatment.
What Our Patients Say About Ultherapy Prime
“The Ultherapy + Sofwave combination at RE:BERRY Myeongdong produced the most dramatic lifting I have ever experienced without surgery. At month 3, my jawline was completely redefined. Worth every moment.”
“I was nervous about the discomfort but Dr. Baek made me very comfortable throughout. The results took a few months to fully develop but when they did, it was like turning back the clock five years.”
“I get Ultherapy annually at RE:BERRY and the cumulative results are remarkable. Each session builds on the previous one. My skin is tighter now at 50 than it was at 45.”
Frequently Asked Questions About Ultherapy Prime
Everything you need to know about Ultherapy Prime treatment at RE:BERRY Myeongdong Clinic.
Ultherapy Prime is the latest version of the FDA-cleared micro-focused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V) system. It is the only non-invasive device cleared to lift skin on the brow, chin, neck, and decolletage by targeting the SMAS layer.
Ultherapy is the original and only FDA-cleared MFU-V device. It features real-time tissue visualization, validated treatment depths, and clinical evidence from peer-reviewed studies. Many HIFU devices lack these features.
Ultherapy involves moderate discomfort during treatment as energy targets deep tissue layers. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, we provide comfort measures including topical numbing and/or oral analgesics. Most patients tolerate the procedure well.
Shot count depends on treatment area and goals. Typical full-face protocols use 200-530 shots. The Myeongdong combination package includes 200 Ultherapy shots paired with Sofwave and Inmode.
Some immediate tightening may be visible. The primary lifting effect develops over 2-6 months as SMAS-layer collagen remodels. Peak results typically appear at 3-6 months.
Results typically last 12-24 months, among the longest of any non-invasive lifting treatment. Annual maintenance sessions help sustain structural improvement.
The SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) is a fibrous tissue layer connecting facial muscles to the skin. It is the same layer tightened during surgical facelifts. Only Ultherapy can reach this layer non-invasively.
Yes, Ultherapy combines powerfully with Sofwave, Titanium, and skin boosters. Our most popular package combines 200 Ultherapy shots with 100 Sofwave shots and Inmode FX for comprehensive multi-depth lifting.
Ultherapy targets multiple depths (1.5-4.5mm) including the SMAS layer for deep structural lifting. Sofwave targets only the mid-dermis at 1.5mm for superficial tightening. They complement each other excellently.
Downtime is minimal but more than some alternatives. Mild swelling, redness, and tenderness may last 1-3 days. Rarely, temporary numbness or tingling may occur for up to 2 weeks.
Ultherapy is FDA-cleared for the brow, chin, submental area, neck, and decolletage. It can also be used on the cheeks, jawline, and periorbital area.
Yes, Ultherapy is safe for all skin types including Asian skin. Because ultrasound energy is not affected by melanin, there is no risk of hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation.
Absolutely. RE:BERRY Myeongdong is a top destination for international patients seeking Ultherapy. We offer multilingual consultations and are conveniently located near Myeongdong Station.
Ultherapy targets the same tissue layer as surgery but non-invasively. While results are less dramatic than surgery, they are significant and achieved without incisions, anesthesia, or extended recovery. It is ideal for patients not ready for or wanting to avoid surgery.
MFU-V (Micro-Focused Ultrasound with Visualization) allows the practitioner to see tissue layers on the device screen during treatment. This ensures precise energy placement and optimal targeting of the SMAS layer.
Most patients achieve excellent results from a single session. Some patients with more significant laxity may benefit from a second session at 6-12 months. Annual maintenance is recommended.
Avoid blood thinners and anti-inflammatory medications for 1 week before treatment to minimize bruising risk. Come with clean skin. Stay hydrated.
Yes, the neck is one of Ultherapy’s FDA-cleared treatment areas. It is highly effective for neck laxity, horizontal lines, and the appearance of a ‘turkey neck.’
For many patients with mild to moderate laxity, one session produces very satisfying results. The combination with Sofwave (as in our ₩1,950,000 package) enhances single-session outcomes significantly.
Yes, you can fly within 24-48 hours. Some patients prefer to wait 1-2 days until initial swelling subsides, but there are no medical restrictions on air travel.
Yes, jowl improvement is one of Ultherapy’s strongest indications. The SMAS-layer targeting produces structural lifting that visibly reduces jowl sagging and redefines the jawline.
The Ultherapy Prime 200s + Sofwave 100s + Inmode package is ₩1,950,000. Individual pricing varies by shot count. Contact us for a personalized quote. All prices exclude VAT.
Yes, Ultherapy produces very natural results because the improvement develops gradually over months through your body’s own collagen remodeling process. There is no ‘done’ look.
Our doctors combine Ultherapy with complementary technologies (Sofwave, Inmode) for multi-depth lifting that surpasses standalone treatment. With thousands of sessions performed, they optimize transducer selection and shot placement for superior outcomes.
