Q. Isn't Eye Ulthera just

the same no matter where you get it?

A. Even with the same machine, transducer selection,

energy settings, and understanding of eye-area anatomy

can completely change the results.

How it is used is more important than the machine itself.

Q. Why is HIFU effective for the eye area?

A. Because it creates thermal coagulation points directly

down to the SMAS layer without affecting the skin surface,

it can improve firmness even in

thin, delicate areas like around the eyes.

"If you're looking for Eye Ulthera in Myeongdong,

visit Hongdae Beautystone.

With HIFU-based ultrasound lifting for the eye area,

it helps restore firmness from within the skin."

— Director Woo Young-jin (Hongdae Beautystone Clinic)

What is Eye Ulthera

(Eye Ulthera)?

Eye Ulthera is an HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) technology

that is specialized for application around the eyes

and is a non-incisional ultrasound lifting device.

Unlike regular Ulthera, which focuses on

full-face lifting,

Eye Ulthera uses a transducer that allows

more precise depth control, tailored to the thin skin

around the eyes.

What ultrasound does

beneath the skin

Loss of skin elasticity starts

not at the surface, but in deeper layers.

The skin around the eyes is the thinnest area

of the face, with a thickness of around 0.5 mm.

Beneath this thin skin is

the dermis, where collagen is woven together,

and deeper below that is the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system)

structure.

When this SMAS layer loosens,

the eye area starts to sag and appear hollowed

downward.

Eye Ulthera passes ultrasound energy

through the skin surface

and creates thermal coagulation points only at the target depth.

👨‍⚕️ Dr. Woo Young-jin's key summary

Eye Ulthera is a procedure that uses HIFU ultrasound

to avoid affecting the skin surface

while directly creating

thermal coagulation points down to the SMAS layer.

Especially in thin areas around the eyes,

depth settings and energy adjustment determine the results, and

even with the same device, effectiveness can change completely

depending on the practitioner's anatomical understanding.

For those looking in Myeongdong

— why we recommend Hongdae Beautystone

The area around the eyes has facial nerves and blood vessels

distributed in a complex pattern,

and if the settings are wrong, it can cause unintended irritation

beyond temporary swelling.

When Eye Ulthera is performed at Hongdae Beautystone,

the thickness of the skin around the eyes is

checked directly with ultrasound imaging before treatment.

From transducer selection to energy level,

and point spacing, everything is set differently

depending on the area.

People who had 2 to 3 sessions elsewhere and

saw little change often

notice a difference after 1 to 2 sessions with us because

the approach was different, not the machine.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Can Eye Ulthera be done

directly above the eyelid?

The skin on the eyelid is very thin, and

because it is close to the orbital nerve,

direct treatment is generally avoided.

Instead, we precisely define the boundaries, focusing

on areas below the eye and the outer corners,

for a safe approach.

Q2. How many sessions are needed to see results,

and how long do they last?

In general, results are checked after one treatment,

and maintenance is performed every 6 months to 1 year

depending on the condition.

The effect is most noticeable 2 to 3 months after treatment,

and with good care it lasts up to 12 to 18 months.

Q3. What precautions or

side effects are there after the procedure?

A little swelling or redness may appear immediately after treatment,

but in most cases it subsides the same day or the next day.

For about 1 to 2 weeks after treatment,

eye-area massage or strong physical stimulation

should be avoided.

That was Woo Young-jin.
