Why Are Some People Unsuitable for Radiofrequency and Ultrasound Lifting?

ALIVE Dermatology Clinic notes that fat thickness and laxity differ between the two sides of the face, and that those with a damaged skin barrier or an overly thin face who force themselves to undergo radiofrequency and ultrasound lifting may risk disfigurement; judging suitability before treatment matters more than comparing price and shot count.

Fat thickness and laxity are not the same on both sides of the face to begin with, and this is the first thing ALIVE Dermatology Clinic examines when judging whether radiofrequency and ultrasound lifting is suitable. For someone whose skin barrier is already damaged, or whose face is too thin, forcing the treatment may bring disfiguring consequences.

Why are some people advised against it?

Because the fat thickness and laxity of the two sides of the face are not identical, the same procedure does not hold up on every face.

  • People with a damaged skin barrier
  • People whose face is too thin

When these two groups force themselves to undergo radiofrequency and ultrasound lifting, the risk falls on disfigurement rather than on results.

What should be looked at when doing your homework?

Price and shot count should not be the only things looked at. This clinic believes that true expertise is the courage to say no to a procedure that does not suit the patient; price and shot count are numbers that can be compared, but whether a treatment suits someone depends first on the condition of the face itself.
