Overview

Ultherapy Prime is the newest generation of the original HIFU lifting device from Merz — the only ultrasound lift cleared by the US FDA. Its defining feature is real-time ultrasound imaging: the doctor sees your skin layers on screen while treating, so every shot lands precisely on the SMAS fascia layer, the same layer tightened in a surgical facelift.

DERNA uses Ultherapy Prime for patients whose laxity sits deep — heavy lower cheeks, softened jawline, loose skin under the chin. Because energy is visualized and placed rather than fired blind, results are stronger and the risk of nerve irritation or fat loss is minimized.

Prices in KRW, VAT included. Final plan confirmed after consultation.

Ultherapy Prime — FAQ

Ultherapy vs Thermage — which one?

Ultherapy lifts from the deep SMAS layer with focused ultrasound; Thermage tightens the dermis with radiofrequency. Sagging responds better to Ultherapy, texture and fine wrinkles to Thermage. Many patients combine both.

Is 300 or 600 shots right for me?

300 shots targets the lower face and jawline; 600 shots treats the full face including brow and mid-face. After imaging your skin, the doctor may recommend adding 100-shot increments only where needed.

How long do results last?

Collagen builds for 2–3 months after treatment and results typically hold 6 months to a year. An annual maintenance session keeps the lift continuous.

Is it safe around the eyes?

Yes — the Eye protocol (200 shots) uses shallow transducers designed for the brow and periorbital zone, lifting hooded lids without surgery.
