Non-surgical lifting in Nampo, Busan
Lifting at JRYN is not about pulling the skin tight. It restores loosened support and elasticity so your contour looks like yours again, just more defined.
Lifting may suit you if you notice…
- Your jawline and face outline look less defined than before
- Loss of firmness is starting to make your face look heavier or tired
- Sagging shows more when you smile or talk
- You want a natural tidy-up rather than a strong, pulled look
- You want a change people notice without being able to tell why
- You prefer no incisions and little or no downtime while travelling
One cause, one matched approach.
Devices are grouped by how they work. Your doctor may use one, or combine two that reach different depths.
Ulthera & Shurink Universe
High-intensity focused ultrasound delivers heat to the deep supporting layer (SMAS) without damaging the skin surface. It contracts tissue and stimulates new collagen for a lifted contour and firmer jawline. Ulthera adds real-time imaging so the doctor can see the layers being treated.
Thermage FLX & InMode RF
Thermage FLX, first FDA-cleared in 2002 and used in more than 100 countries, heats the dermis with monopolar RF while cooling the surface, tightening skin and refining fine lines and pores. InMode RF delivers RF energy to a set depth to support collagen remodelling and firmer contours with short downtime.
SUNNY
Chosen when muscle activity and expression balance are part of why the face looks heavy. The doctor plans it around how your face moves, not just how it looks at rest.
Onda & Titanium lifting
Onda uses microwave energy through a patented handpiece with continuous Coolwaves cooling and temperature sensors, so it targets local fat and laxity with very little discomfort and no downtime. Titanium lifting is popular for an instant, brighter and smoother finish.

General guide only. Your doctor confirms which device, energy and number of shots suit your skin at consultation.
Your lifting appointment
- Consultation: the doctor checks skin thickness, fat, muscle activity and where support has dropped.
- Plan and price: device, areas and shot count are explained and the total is confirmed before you agree.
- Preparation: cleansing and, where needed, numbing cream.
- Treatment: usually 20–60 minutes depending on the device and area.
- After: makeup and normal activities are usually fine the same day unless your doctor advises otherwise.
Planning around your trip
- Lifting fits even a short stay, since most devices need no recovery time.
- Avoid saunas, jjimjilbang and very hot baths for a few days after treatment.
- Use sunscreen: Busan's harbour sun is stronger than it feels.
- If you plan fillers or Botox too, ask the doctor about the best order on the same trip.
Combine with skin boosters for texture and glow, or Botox for a slimmer jawline.
