Hello.
I am Director Hwang, from Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.
“I used to be fine, but lately, it feels like my crow's feet linger longer after I smile.
My jawline also feels like it's sagging a little bit; what kind of treatment should I start with?”
When you start worrying about skin elasticity, it is easy to think of wrinkles and sagging as a single issue.
However, the loss of skin elasticity, reduction in volume, changes in fat distribution, and changes in the structures supporting the face are all different factors.
As we age, the collagen and elastic fibers in the dermis change, and factors like UV exposure or lifestyle habits can also affect skin aging.
Therefore, even for people in their late 30s, the necessary approach can differ depending on whether the skin has become thinner or if there is a loss of volume.
Oligio lifting in Gangnam is a radiofrequency option that can be considered, focusing on the reduction of skin elasticity.
Today, I will explain everything from the operating principles of Oligio to the expected changes, shot counts, product options, differences from other lifting procedures, and precautions.
What is Oligio lifting in Gangnam?
👉 Oligio lifting in Gangnam is a non-invasive elasticity treatment that delivers radiofrequency energy to skin tissue using Wontech's 6.78MHz monopolar RF device.
Monopolar RF works on the principle that high-frequency current generates heat when it encounters resistance in the tissue.
This thermal effect can contribute to the temporary contraction of collagen and subsequent tissue remodeling, and is used for the purpose of improving elasticity in areas where the skin has become loose.
Technical features of Oligio lifting in Gangnam
👉 The technical features of Oligio lifting in Gangnam include 6.78MHz monopolar radiofrequency, cooling and vibration assistance, and dedicated tips and energy settings selected according to the area.
6.78MHz Monopolar RF
Oligio is a device that delivers radiofrequency energy to tissue to induce a thermal effect.
Here, 6.78MHz refers to the frequency of the radiofrequency, not the number of shots or the amount of energy.
The actual range and degree of heat delivery are influenced by skin condition, tip contact, output, and irradiation method.
Therefore, rather than explaining that energy is delivered equally to a fixed depth, it is better to understand that settings tailored to the individual's condition are important.
Cooling and Vibration Assistance
Oligio supports a cooling spray and a micro-vibration system.
Cooling is designed to lower the heat on the skin's contact surface while energy is being delivered, and vibration is an auxiliary function that helps disperse stimulation at the contact point.
However, these functions do not eliminate the risk of pain or burns.
If you feel excessively hot or sharp pain during the procedure, you must inform us immediately, and the energy and procedure method should be adjusted according to your skin's reaction.
Tips by Area and Energy Distribution
The manufacturer's official materials provide information on a basic tip for large areas and a small tip for narrow areas.
Since the entire face and small areas like the eye area have different skin thicknesses and surrounding structures, it is necessary to consider the characteristics of each area rather than applying the same settings uniformly.
The official estimated time is about 15 to 30 minutes depending on the shot count and settings, but this is a general guide for the device and does not mean the fixed procedure time at our Gangnam branch.
Effects and Advantages of Oligio lifting in Gangnam
👉 The advantages of Oligio lifting in Gangnam include the thermal effect aimed at improving skin elasticity, a non-invasive approach to mild to moderate sagging, and a management plan that considers the burden of recovery.
1. Approach to skin elasticity and mild sagging
Monopolar RF can deliver heat to the skin to induce a collagen remodeling reaction, and it is a method used to address mild to moderate sagging of the jawline and cheeks.
In an Oligio clinical study published in 2022, 30 Asians were evaluated at 1, 3, and 6 months after a single treatment, and the researchers reported mild to moderate improvement in lower facial sagging during the follow-up period.
2. Gradually observing changes in elasticity
The initial thermal response caused by radiofrequency and subsequent tissue remodeling can appear at different times.
Therefore, it is appropriate to observe changes over several weeks rather than judging the final state based on skin tightening on the day of the procedure.
In a 2024 study of 20 people using Oligio, skin conditions were evaluated at 4, 12, and 24 weeks, and improvements were observed in cheek elasticity and sagging around the jawline and nasolabial folds.
On the other hand, some measurement items such as fine lines and pores did not show statistically significant differences, so it is difficult to expect the same effect for all skin concerns.
3. Non-surgical management method
Since Oligio does not involve cutting the skin or inserting fillers, it has different recovery characteristics compared to surgical procedures.
Returning to daily life is relatively quick, but redness, swelling, and heat may occur, and rare complications such as burns or fat atrophy have been reported.
Therefore, if you have an important schedule, it is recommended to plan by considering individual recovery possibilities.
Oligio lifting in Gangnam is suitable for:
Those concerned about loss of skin elasticity after their late 30s
Those who want to manage mild sagging of the cheeks and jawline non-invasively
Those concerned about both fine lines around the eyes and loss of elasticity
Those who want radiofrequency lifting without incisions or injections
Those who want to check if additional management is needed after previous lifting procedures
Side effects and things to know in advance about Oligio lifting in Gangnam
👉 Side effects of Oligio lifting in Gangnam include temporary redness, heat, and swelling, as well as rare burns and fat atrophy, so it is important to check skin conditions and contraindications and proceed with appropriate energy.
During the procedure, you may feel warmth, a hot sensation, stinging, or pressure.
After the procedure, temporary redness, swelling, and tenderness may occur, and there are individual differences in recovery speed.
Rarely, burns, blisters, pigment changes, scarring, fat atrophy, or nerve-related abnormalities have been reported.
In particular, the effects of thermal energy should be carefully considered for areas with little facial fat or thin skin.
If you have internal electronic devices such as a pacemaker or an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, the use of radiofrequency may be restricted.
If you have metallic implants or a history of recent fillers or thread lifting, please inform us of the type, location, and timing of the procedure.
Prior confirmation is also required if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have active skin infections, wounds, or severe dermatitis.
If you have related diseases or are taking medication, it is recommended that you inform the medical staff rather than stopping or hiding it arbitrarily.
Oligio is a treatment aimed at skin elasticity and is not a method of removing significantly sagging skin like surgery or directly filling in lacking volume.
Therefore, depending on the degree and cause of sagging, other approaches may be more suitable.
⚠️ Precautions before Oligio lifting in Gangnam
1-2 weeks before
If you have recently received fillers, thread lifting, laser, or other radiofrequency treatments, please inform us of the type and date.
It is also recommended to check for internal electronic devices, metallic implants, pregnancy/breastfeeding status, and medications you are taking.
Do not stop taking medications arbitrarily; consult with your prescribing physician and follow the necessary instructions.
2-3 days before
It is recommended to refrain from strong scrubs, peeling, or irritating cosmetics depending on your skin condition.
Please inform us in advance if there is inflammation, wounds, or severe irritation in the area scheduled for the procedure.
On the day of
Please visit with clean skin if possible, and remove metal accessories according to instructions.
It is recommended to check the anesthesia and procedure method so that you can fully communicate heat or pain during the procedure.
⚠️ Precautions after Oligio lifting in Gangnam
On the day of the procedure
If your skin is red or feels hot, wash your face gently with lukewarm water and moisturize sufficiently.
It is recommended to avoid activities that add heat to the skin, such as hot saunas, steam rooms, or excessive exercise.
Makeup may be possible depending on the skin condition, but if irritation or redness remains, do not force it and follow the instructions.
3-7 days after the procedure
Maintain UV protection and hydration, and refrain from strong scrubs or irritating skin care.
Observe whether redness and swelling gradually subside, but if pain worsens or symptoms suspected of blisters or burns appear, you must contact the medical institution immediately.
1-2 weeks after the procedure
If you are planning other energy-based treatments or injectable procedures after checking your skin condition, it is recommended to set an appropriate interval considering the recovery status and previous procedure history.
If residual symptoms persist or unexpected changes such as skin indentation occur, seek an evaluation from the medical staff before proceeding with the next session.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. When do the effects of Oligio lifting in Gangnam appear?
You may experience a tightening sensation immediately after the procedure, but that sensation does not mean final elasticity improvement.
In Oligio clinical studies, changes were observed over several weeks to several months, and the timing and degree of actual changes may vary depending on skin condition and energy settings.
Q. How many shots of Oligio lifting in Gangnam should I receive?
The number of shots depends on the area of the treatment, skin thickness, degree of sagging, and energy settings.
It is not necessary to apply the specific number of shots used in studies to everyone, and more shots do not necessarily mean better results.
Q. How much pain is involved in Oligio lifting in Gangnam?
You may feel warmth, stinging, or a momentary hot sensation during the procedure.
Cooling and vibration functions can help reduce stimulation, but the degree of pain varies by individual, and excessive heat should be reported immediately.
Q. How is Oligio lifting in Gangnam different from Ulthera and Thermage?
Oligio and Thermage are in the monopolar radiofrequency category, while Ulthera uses focused ultrasound, so the energy principle is different.
However, since each device has different approved uses and energy delivery methods, it is better to choose according to the cause and area of sagging rather than comparing which device is unconditionally better.
Q. How many sessions and at what interval should I receive Oligio lifting in Gangnam?
A method of evaluating changes over several weeks even after a single treatment is used.
Whether additional sessions are needed depends on skin condition, previous reactions, and treatment goals, so we do not apply the same cycle or cumulative number of sessions to everyone.
Q. How long does the maintenance period of Oligio lifting in Gangnam last?
The maintenance period can be affected by age, skin condition, lifestyle habits, energy settings, and individual aging levels.
Although there are cases in studies where changes were observed for up to 6 months, this cannot be guaranteed as a maintenance period for everyone or interpreted as meaning it must be repeated at a specific cycle.
Q. Can I return to daily life immediately after Oligio lifting in Gangnam?
Since it is a procedure performed without incisions or injections, returning to daily life is relatively quick.
However, redness, heat, and swelling may occur, so consider the possibility of recovery before important schedules, and it is recommended to follow the instructed care such as UV protection and hydration after the procedure.
For skin elasticity management, it is more important to observe what changes are currently occurring than to decide when to start based on age alone.
Even in their late 30s, some people have skin elasticity as their main concern, while others are more affected by volume loss or changes in fat distribution.
Distinguishing these differences allows you to reduce unnecessary treatments and focus on the areas that need it.
Oligio is a device that delivers thermal energy to tissue using 6.78MHz monopolar radiofrequency and is an option that can be considered for mild to moderate skin sagging and loss of elasticity.
At Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch, we examine skin thickness, degree of sagging, and previous procedure history to review energy distribution and management direction suitable for your current state.
Depending on the need, combinations with other lifting or skin care treatments can also be considered.
You do not need to decide which device to receive in advance.
We will personally check the options suitable for you and the programs currently in operation during the consultation.
If you have started to worry about skin elasticity or facial lines, visit Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch to check your current state and calmly learn about the necessary care.

연구에서 6개월까지 변화를 관찰한 사례가 있지만,
이를 모든 분의 유지기간으로 보장하거나 특정 주기로
반복해야 한다는 의미로 해석할 수는 없습니다.
Q. 강남 올리지오 리프팅 후 바로 일상생활이 가능한가요?
절개나 주사 없이 진행하는 방식이므로 일상 복귀가 비교적 빠른 편입니다.
다만 붉은기, 열감, 붓기 등이 나타날 수 있어 중요한 일정 전에는 회복 가능성을 고려하고,
시술 후에는 자외선 차단과 보습 등 안내받은 관리를 지켜주시는 것이 좋습니다.
피부 탄력 관리는 나이만으로 시작 시점을 정하는 것보다,
현재 어떤 변화가 나타나고 있는지 살펴보는 것이 중요합니다.
같은 30대 후반이라도 피부 탄력이 주된 고민인 분이 있고,
볼륨 감소나 지방의 위치 변화가 더 크게 영향을 주는 분도 있습니다.
이러한 차이를 구분해야 불필요한 관리를 줄이고 필요한 부위에 집중할 수 있죠.
올리지오는 6.78MHz 모노폴라 고주파를 이용해 조직에 열에너지를 전달하는 장비로,
가벼운~중등도 피부 처짐과 탄력 저하를 고려할 때 선택할 수 있는 옵션입니다.
