Oligio Lifting

*Oligio Treatment

Radiofrequency (RF) lifting is a non-surgical procedure that utilizes the resistance heat generated when high-frequency current is delivered into the skin.

This heat warms the skin's collagen fibers to a certain temperature, inducing immediate contraction. Simultaneously, it stimulates fibroblasts to help generate new collagen and elastin.

1. As dermal collagen contracts, improved skin elasticity can be expected immediately after the procedure.

2. The regenerative response that follows thermal stimulation gradually enhances the lifting effect starting several weeks later.

*RF lifting is broadly divided into two methods.

Monopolar and Bipolar.

The monopolar method is suitable for improving the structure of deeper skin layers,

while the bipolar method is useful for managing the elasticity of the skin's surface.

These methods show technical differences in the depth of energy penetration and the range where heat acts.

For example:

1. For improving a double chin or sagging jawline, monopolar treatment, which can deliver thermal stimulation to the fat layer, can be helpful.

2. If your skin is thin or sensitive, bipolar treatment, which primarily acts on the superficial layer, can be considered.

3. For areas requiring stimulation from the dermis to the fat layer, such as nasolabial folds, monopolar treatment may be suitable.

4. For improving skin texture, pores, fine wrinkles, and restoring epidermal density, bipolar treatment can be beneficial.

5. If you desire rapid elasticity improvement, bipolar treatment, which is effective for superficial contraction, can be considered.

Thus, it is crucial to comprehensively consider an individual's skin condition, age, fat volume, thickness, sensitivity, and other factors to select the appropriate lifting device.

*We do not recommend treatment methods that simply emphasize 'a certain number of shots or more'.

It can be difficult to achieve the desired effects by simply delivering RF energy uniformly.

True lifting depends on "which areas are treated, in what manner, with how much energy, and in combination with what other procedures".

The results of lifting procedures can vary depending on how the medical staff utilizes the device.

*Oligio can deliver satisfactory results through precise output settings, customized stimulation for each skin layer, and treatment design that considers directionality. Beyond simply temporarily contracting the skin, it can be utilized to create personalized lifting plans.

Beyond instantaneously pulling the skin, creating an elastic structure that can be maintained over time is what

we believe true lifting means.

Key Differentiator 1. Effective Intensity Control – Treatments based on research-driven optimal energy

We set appropriate treatment intensities based on academic papers and various research data.

RF energy intensity is not simply determined by criteria like 'not too hot' or 'pain-free'.

Instead, based on criteria presented in domestic and international papers and clinical studies,

we use the 'critical energy level' required to induce collagen contraction and remodeling as our foundation.

A minimum of 0.07kJ per shot (Oligio standard Level 4.5 or higher)

The procedure is performed according to a protocol designed to achieve a total energy of 40kJ or more.

This is not simply aiming for 'a less painful procedure',

but rather signifies 'a precisely designed procedure based on energy standards expected to be effective'.

Within the patient's tolerable range, treatment intensity is adjusted appropriately high and precisely.

We strive to minimize post-treatment pain while maintaining effectiveness.

Oligio treatments performed according to these standards

can be expected to yield collagen remodeling effects.

Key Differentiator 2. Meticulously Designed Treatment – Considering the overall facial balance

Beyond simply lifting the skin, we collaborate directly with the director to design a customized treatment plan tailored to your individual needs, addressing facial asymmetry, specific areas of concern, or severe loss of elasticity.

We meticulously consider each individual's facial structure and current concerns to achieve the most natural and harmonious lifting results possible.

Key Difference 3 Swelling Management – Reducing Recovery Burden with Danggwisusan Prescription

Swelling may occur after Olizio lifting treatment, depending on the individual.

At Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic, to alleviate concerns about post-treatment swelling, we provide 'Danggwisusan,' a traditional Korean herbal prescription that can help reduce swelling, at no additional cost. This helps ensure a more comfortable recovery and aids in returning to daily life.

Key Difference 4 Post-Treatment Quantity Verification – Transparency in the Treatment Process

After the treatment is completed, we directly confirm to the patient that the exact number of shots was administered as planned before concluding.

We strive to provide treatments that patients can trust, doing our best to achieve satisfactory results for each individual.

Key Difference 6 Region-Specific Resistance Value Adjustment Considering Safety and Efficacy

We re-measure the impedance (resistance value) of each facial area and delicately adjust the energy intensity accordingly.

Monopolar radiofrequency (RF) treatment utilizes thermal energy generated according to the resistance value exhibited by skin tissue.

This means that because skin thickness, fat layer volume, blood flow distribution, and other factors vary across different facial areas, the electrical resistance value (impedance) of each area also differs.

Therefore, the radiofrequency energy output required for each area, such as the cheeks, forehead, jawline, and double chin, must also be adjusted accordingly.

However, in typical Olizio treatments,

it is not uncommon for the entire face to be treated with the same intensity using a single resistance value set at the beginning of the procedure.

This approach can lead to excessive energy delivery to certain areas, or conversely, prevent sufficient thermal energy from reaching where it's needed.

As a result, there may be variations in treatment effectiveness, or in severe cases, discomfort due to overheating.

We re-measure the impedance each time the treatment area changes,

and proceed with the treatment after readjusting to the most suitable energy output for that specific area.

We set energy parameters appropriate for the skin characteristics and electrical resistance values of each area, such as the forehead, chin, cheeks, and neck.

We utilize resistance detection for each treatment shot and manually reset the parameters when switching areas, further enhancing safety.

Our goal is to induce treatment effects more precisely and minimize the possibility of side effects.

Treatment Overview

Olizio is a treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production in the dermis layer of the skin.

The RF thermal energy delivered to the skin induces collagen denaturation, which can have positive effects on improving double chin, enhancing sagging skin elasticity, and overall skin texture.

As new collagen gradually forms after the treatment, the skin improvement effects are typically long-lasting.

As it is a non-invasive procedure, separate anesthesia is usually not required, and the application of cooling and vibration functions helps reduce discomfort during the treatment.

Advantages of the Treatment

01. Pain Relief: Utilization of Contact Gas Cooling System and Vibration Technology

02. The contact gas cooling system and vibration technology minimize pain and efficiently deliver radiofrequency energy deep into the skin while protecting the skin surface.

03. Impedance Check: Checks the current flow status within the tissue of the treatment area and adjusts and delivers energy accordingly.

04. Skin Temperature/Tracking Sensor: Real-time monitoring of the skin contact surface temperature during treatment helps reduce the potential for side effects.

05. Pressure Sensor: Designed to operate only when appropriate pressure is detected, contributing to enhanced treatment stability.

Recommended for those who:

01. Are concerned about wrinkles on the forehead, glabella, or nasolabial folds (smile lines).

02. Desire overall improvement in facial skin elasticity.

03. Hope to improve enlarged pores or uneven skin texture.

This treatment is for those who wish to reduce double chin and improve skin elasticity.

It may be suitable for those who desire a quick return to daily life and find long recovery periods burdensome.

It can be considered for those who expect simple skin elasticity improvement without surgical methods or injection procedures.

Post-Treatment Care Instructions

ㆍIf your skin is thin, temporary tip marks may appear on the treated area. These marks usually tend to subside naturally within 1-2 weeks.

ㆍAfter the treatment, mild symptoms such as slight redness, warmth, swelling, or throbbing may accompany the treated area. Occasionally, toothache or tooth sensitivity may occur. While these reactions vary among individuals, they typically improve gradually within 1-2 weeks, so it is advisable to monitor the progress.
