Ultherapy Prime in Seoul, Korea: Lifting From Beneath the Surface
———— ✦ ————
Sagging begins deeper than the skin you see. Ultherapy Prime uses focused ultrasound to reach the SMAS layer — the same foundation a surgical lift addresses — without a single incision.

How It Works
Sagging Starts Below the Skin
———— ✦ ————
The SMAS is the fascial layer that wraps facial muscle and fat. When its support weakens, the cheeks and jawline begin to drop. Ultherapy Prime delivers high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to this layer to support lifting from within.
Energy is focused on precise points to heat the deep layer, and real-time ultrasound imaging lets the doctor confirm the layers during treatment rather than working blind.
BYUS aims for balance: lifting that refreshes contour without over-tightening to the point where volume looks lost.

Who It Suits
Signs You May Be a Candidate
———— ✦ ————
Ultherapy Prime is for people who want deep-layer firmness without incisions. Recommended areas include the forehead, cheeks and jawline, as well as the under-chin.
- A face that appears to be sagging overall
- A jawline that has lost its edge
- Midface cheek volume that has drooped
- Double chin or under-chin line concerns
The Process
What Happens on the Day
———— ✦ ————
Sagging areas and skin thickness are checked and marked during consultation and design. After cleansing and a topical anesthetic ointment, ultrasound imaging confirms the layers and energy is delivered at the planned depth for each area. Soothing care and aftercare instructions follow.
Ultherapy vs. Thermage
Two Devices, Two Layers
———— ✦ ————
Ultherapy Prime targets the SMAS for sagging that blurs contours. Thermage FLX works in the dermis for overall skin laxity and fine lines. Because they act on different layers, the two may be planned together when both concerns are present.

Questions & Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
———— ✦ ————
Is Ultherapy Prime an alternative to a facelift?
It is a non-surgical option for people who want deep-layer firmness without incisions. More advanced sagging may still be better addressed surgically, and your doctor will tell you honestly which fits.
What does the imaging do?
Ultrasound imaging lets the doctor see and confirm the layers during treatment, so energy is delivered at the intended depth.
Can it treat a double chin?
The under-chin and double-chin area is among the recommended treatment zones.
Can I do this during a short visit to Seoul?
Treatment takes about 30 minutes to an hour depending on area, and most patients resume daily activities afterward, so it fits easily into a short trip.
How often is it repeated?
Typically every six months to a year, depending on your skin condition.
What side effects may occur?
Redness, swelling, bruising, numbness and burns may occur, and results vary. Your doctor will discuss these before treatment.
