Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic's Oligio* High-Frequency (RF: Radiofrequency) Lifting is a non-surgical lifting procedure that utilizes resistive heat generated as high-frequency current passes through skin tissue. This heat warms collagen fibers within the skin to 60-70 degrees Celsius, inducing immediate contraction (tightening), and simultaneously stimulates fibroblasts to promote the regeneration of new collagen and elastin.1. As collagen in the dermis contracts, elasticity increases immediately after the procedure.2. Lifting is enhanced several weeks after the regenerative response to thermal damage. *There are two types of high-frequency lifting methods: Monopolar and Bipolar. Monopolar is advantageous for deep structural improvement, while Bipolar is beneficial for superficial elasticity management. Technical differences exist in energy penetration depth and thermal action range. For example: 1. For a double chin or sagging jawline, Monopolar is excellent for contour correction, as it can stimulate fat layers with heat. 2. For thin and sensitive skin, Bipolar is highly safe and primarily acts on superficial layers. 3. For nasolabial folds, Monopolar is needed as stimulation of the dermis to fat layer is required. 4. For skin texture, pores, and fine wrinkles, Bipolar is excellent for recovering superficial density and improving texture. 5. If immediate firmness is desired, Bipolar offers rapid superficial contraction. In this way, it is crucial to select the lifting device considering the skin condition, age, fat volume, thickness, and sensitivity. *We discourage procedures that simply say 'you must have more than X shots.' Simply applying RF has limitations. The completion of lifting is “where, how, how much, and with what the procedure is performed.” How the practitioner utilizes the device is the most important factor in a lifting procedure. *Oligio can enhance longevity and satisfaction through precise output settings, layer-specific stimulation, directional treatment, and combined procedure design. It can be used not just as a concept of 'light tightening' management, but as 'equipment to strategically design lifting.' Designing a ‘sustainable elastic structure’ rather than ‘temporarily’ tightening the skin, that is real lifting. **Distinction 1: Effective Intensity Control – Procedures with optimal energy as stated in research and papers** We set the ‘optimal treatment intensity’ based on papers and research data. We do not simply set the RF intensity based on “not hot” or “no pain.” We base our protocol on the ‘critical energy level’ required to induce collagen contraction and remodeling, as presented in domestic and international papers and clinical data, meaning a minimum of 0.07kJ per shot (Oligio standard level 4.5 or higher) and a total energy of 40kJ or higher. We perform a ‘precisely designed procedure based on proven energy standards,’ not just a ‘less painful procedure.’ The treatment intensity is always maximized and precisely adjusted within the patient's tolerable range. We reduce post-treatment pain but never compromise on efficacy. Oligio procedures performed under these standards can expect collagen remodeling effects comparable to Thermage. [Hong et al., 2022 / Kim et al., 2022 / Laubach et al., 2009] **Distinction 2: Thorough Pre-Procedure Design – Considering Facial Balance** This is not just a simple lifting procedure; we provide customized design after direct consultation with the director for asymmetry improvement, areas of concern, and areas with significant loss of elasticity. By considering each person's facial structure and concerns, we achieve the most natural and ideal lifting effect. **Distinction 3: Swelling Care – Fast Recovery with Danggwisusan Prescription** Oligio lifting may cause swelling after the procedure. Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic provides the traditional herbal remedy ‘Danggwisusan’ (Angelica gigas water decoction), which quickly alleviates swelling, at no additional cost, easing concerns about post-procedure swelling. Faster recovery facilitates a quicker return to daily life. **Distinction 4: Quantity Verification After Procedure – Transparent Procedure** After the procedure, we personally show the customer that the exact number of shots has been administered before concluding. We promise a trustworthy procedure and definite results. **Distinction 5: 5% Discount for Every 10 Minutes of Waiting – Valuing Your Time** Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic values our customers' time and minimizes waiting times through thorough appointment management. In the unavoidable event of a wait, we offer a 5% discount for every 10 minutes, honoring and compensating your valuable time. **Distinction 6: Area-Specific Resistance Control Check for Safety and Efficacy** Customized energy adjustment through re-measurement of impedance (resistance value) for each area. Monopolar radiofrequency uses heat generated by tissue resistance. This means that the resistance value (impedance) varies for each area of the face depending on skin thickness, fat layer, and blood flow. Therefore, the required output for areas like the cheeks, forehead, jawline, and double chin should naturally differ. However, most Oligio procedures often treat all areas identically using a single initial resistance setting. This method can lead to excessive or insufficient heat delivery to specific areas, causing variations in results and potentially risking overheating. At Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic, we remeasure impedance every time the treatment area changes and correct it to the optimal output for that specific area. Energy settings are tailored to skin characteristics and resistance for each area, such as the forehead, jaw, cheeks, and neck. Resistance sensing function per shot + manual re-setting upon area change double-secures safety. Results are more precise, and the risk of side effects is lower. **Procedure Description** Oligio is a procedure that activates collagen in the dermal layer using RF high-frequency waves. The heat delivered to the dermis, along with harmless current, denatures collagen, which is expected to result in double chin correction, skin sagging improvement, and skin texture improvement. A characteristic of this procedure is that collagen is gradually generated after the treatment, inducing long-lasting effects. It is a non-invasive method that does not require anesthesia, and the cooling and vibration modes make the pain relatively mild. **Procedure Benefits** 01. PAIN DOWN: Contact gas cooling system and Vibration technology. 02. The contact gas cooling system and Vibration technology reduce pain, protect the skin's epidermis, and deliver RF energy deep into the skin. 03. Impedance Checking: Checks if current flow within the tissue is smooth and outputs optimized energy. 04. Skin Temp / Tracking Sensor: Real-time temperature check of the skin contact surface reduces side effects. 05. Pressure Sensor: Operates only at appropriate pressure to ensure procedure safety. **Recommended for** 01. Those concerned about wrinkles on the forehead, glabella, and nasolabial folds. 02. Those who desire overall facial elasticity. 03. Those who want to improve pores and skin texture. 04. Those who want double chin improvement and lifting. 05. Those who find procedures requiring recovery time burdensome. 06. Those who want simple lifting without surgery or injections. **Procedure Steps** STEP 01. Self-cleansing. STEP 02. Gel application. STEP 03. Oligio lifting procedure. STEP 04. Finishing. **Precautions After Procedure** ㆍIf the skin is thin, tip marks may appear on the treated area. If tip marks occur, they will gradually fade naturally within about 1-2 weeks, so there is no need to worry excessively. ㆍAfter the procedure, mild symptoms such as (slight redness, warmth, throbbing, swelling, pain, toothache, tooth sensitivity) may occur in the treated area. If they do, while there are individual differences, they usually subside within 1-2 weeks, so there is no need to worry excessively.
