Hello.
I am Director Hwang Jeong-hwang of Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.
Have you ever felt bothered because your eyelids look increasingly heavy in the mirror,
or because fine lines around your eyes seem to deepen when you smile?
"My eyelids seem to be drooping slightly, and the fine lines around my eyes are increasing, making my expression look heavy.
I find surgery burdensome and am looking for a treatment that can be done separately from other areas."
The eye area is one of the thinnest skin regions on the face.
Because it is an area where facial muscles are frequently used, dermal collagen decreases rapidly,
and because the epidermis and dermis are thinner than in other areas,
an environment is created where changes around the eyes become noticeable first, even with the same aging process.
When changes in the position of orbital fat pads and weakening of supporting ligaments are added to this,
a pattern where eyelid drooping and fine lines around the eyes settle in together is reported.
The Gangnam Eye Thermage approach involves precisely delivering 4th-generation monopolar RF thermal stimulation to the thin dermis and subcutaneous layer around the eyes
to achieve both collagen coagulation and regeneration.
Today, I will summarize the mechanism of Gangnam Eye Thermage,
and how the 225-shot and 450-shot options differ.
What is Gangnam Eye Thermage
👉 Gangnam Eye Thermage is a non-surgical eye lifting treatment that uses a dedicated eye tip from the Thermage FLX series by Solta Medical (USA) to precisely deliver 4th-generation monopolar RF energy to the thin dermis and subcutaneous layer around the eyes.
Thermage FLX is a 4th-generation monopolar radiofrequency device.
It is known for a mechanism that delivers broad thermal energy to the dermis and subcutaneous layer to coagulate and contract collagen proteins,
and stimulate the production of new collagen over time.
Since Eye Thermage is a line designed specifically for the eye area within the series,
it uses a dedicated tip that is smaller than the standard face tip,
making it a configuration capable of precise action on thin areas like the eyelids and the area around the orbits.
Technical Features of Gangnam Eye Thermage
👉 Gangnam Eye Thermage is a treatment with four key features: 4th-generation monopolar RF, a dedicated eye tip, a combination of CRT vibration and cooling, and the operation of two options: 225 shots and 450 shots.
4th-generation monopolar RF
Thermage FLX is a line that operates with 4th-generation monopolar radiofrequency.
It is known for a mechanism that delivers uniform thermal stimulation to a wide range of the dermis and subcutaneous layer,
leading to both collagen coagulation/contraction and the generation of new collagen.
Dedicated eye tip
Eye Thermage is a line designed specifically for the eye area within the series.
By using a tip smaller than the standard face tip (300–600 shots),
it is configured to act precisely on thin skin such as the eyelids, orbital area, and brow line.
Combination of CRT vibration and cooling
Thermage FLX is a line that combines CRT (Comfort Pulse Technology) vibration technology with
epidermal cooling spray.
Vibration is delivered during the procedure to reduce pain,
and the mechanism uses epidermal cooling to ensure safety.
Operation of two options: 225 shots and 450 shots
At the Gangnam branch, we operate Eye Thermage with two options: 225 shots and 450 shots.
225 shots are for single-session care of the eye area, while 450 shots are
operated as a full configuration that delivers more sufficient stimulation,
allowing you to choose according to the condition of your eye area and your schedule.
Effects and Advantages of Gangnam Eye Thermage
👉 The key advantages of Gangnam Eye Thermage are summarized into three points: precise action dedicated to the eye area, simultaneous approach to collagen coagulation and regeneration, and a non-surgical treatment with low recovery burden.
First, it is precise action dedicated to the eye area.
It uses a small eye-dedicated tip different from the standard face tip,
which is known to be configured to safely deliver RF energy even to the thin dermis around the eyes.
Next, it approaches collagen coagulation and regeneration simultaneously.
Immediately after the procedure, dermal collagen coagulates and contracts, providing an immediate sense of micro-tightening,
and it is a mechanism where changes accumulate as new collagen settles in over 1 to 3 months.
Finally, the non-surgical recovery burden is low.
Because it is a non-invasive RF mechanism rather than a procedure that damages the epidermis,
it is reported that daily activities are possible immediately after the procedure.
Gangnam Eye Thermage Lineup
👉 At the Gangnam branch, we operate two options: Eye Thermage FLX 225 shots and 450 shots.
Eye Thermage is a line performed as a single-session treatment.
Some micro-tightening is reported immediately after the procedure, and full-scale changes
gradually settle in over 1 to 3 months as new collagen accumulates,
and the maintenance period is reported to be about 1 to 2 years.
We will review the option that suits your eye condition and schedule during the pre-treatment consultation.
Who is Gangnam Eye Thermage for?
Those whose eyelids look heavy and have prominent fine lines around the eyes
Those whose eye lines look sunken even when relaxing their expressions
Those looking for non-surgical eye lifting without the burden of surgery
Those who need intensive care for the eye area rather than the entire face
Those who want to achieve cumulative changes with a single-session treatment
Side Effects and Things to Know Before Gangnam Eye Thermage
👉 Although Gangnam Eye Thermage is a single-session treatment, it takes 1 to 3 months for the changes to settle in.
Temporary redness, mild swelling, and a warm sensation may accompany the treated area immediately after the procedure.
Most cases are reported to subside naturally within a few days.
Because the eye area is the thinnest skin on the face,
you may feel slightly more stimulation than in other areas during the procedure.
Although it is configured to reduce pain burden by combining CRT vibration technology and epidermal cooling,
it is an area that varies depending on pain sensitivity.
Changes due to collagen regeneration are not immediate,
and because they settle in gradually over 1 to 3 months,
it is more satisfying to expect cumulative changes rather than large changes immediately after the procedure.
Please inform us in advance as treatment may be restricted in the following cases:
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding
If you have active herpes or infection in the treated area
If you use internal electrical devices such as a pacemaker
If you have recently had implants, fillers, or thread procedures in the treated area
If you have ophthalmic diseases or have recently undergone eye surgery
⚠️ Precautions before and after Gangnam Eye Thermage
👉 For Gangnam Eye Thermage, management at each stage before and after the procedure affects recovery and the perception of results.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. How should I choose between Gangnam Eye Thermage 225 shots and 450 shots?
225 shots are recommended when you want single-session care for the eye area,
and 450 shots are recommended when you want more sufficient stimulation and a full configuration.
The option that fits your eye condition and schedule will be determined during the pre-treatment consultation.
Q. How is Gangnam Eye Thermage different from regular Thermage?
It is the same Thermage FLX series, but the size of the tip used is different.
Regular face Thermage is a line that acts on the entire face with a large tip,
while Eye Thermage is configured to act precisely on the thin dermis around the eyes with a small tip dedicated to the eye area.
Q. When do the effects of Gangnam Eye Thermage appear?
While some report a sense of micro-tightening immediately after the procedure,
full-scale changes are a flow that accompanies the gradual settling of new collagen
over 1 to 3 months.
This is an area with individual differences.
Q. How long does the maintenance period for Gangnam Eye Thermage last?
It is generally reported as a line that lasts for about 1 to 2 years.
This is an area with individual differences depending on your skin condition and daily care,
and results are more stable when UV protection and moisturizing care are maintained.
Q. How much pain is involved in Gangnam Eye Thermage?
It is configured to reduce pain burden by combining CRT vibration technology and epidermal cooling.
However, because the eye area is the thinnest skin on the face, you may feel slightly more stimulation than in other areas,
and it is an area that varies depending on pain sensitivity.
Q. Can I resume daily activities immediately after receiving Gangnam Eye Thermage?
Because it is a non-invasive procedure, daily activities are generally possible immediately after the procedure.
There may be mild redness and swelling immediately after the procedure,
but it is known as a treatment with low daily burden as it subsides naturally within a few days.
Q. Can I receive Gangnam Eye Thermage and face Thermage together?
There are cases where we proceed with different areas on the same day.
The combination that fits your sagging pattern and schedule will be determined during the pre-treatment consultation.
Drooping eyelids and fine lines around the eyes are not simply skin sagging,
but a multi-layered change involving thin dermal collagen reduction, facial muscle use, changes in orbital fat pad position,
and weakening of supporting ligaments.
Because there is a limitation in reaching the dermal layer with surface care alone,
this is why a line that precisely delivers RF energy to the eye area has been established.
Gangnam Eye Thermage is a non-surgical eye lifting treatment that precisely delivers 4th-generation monopolar RF to the thin dermis and subcutaneous layer around the eyes using the eye-dedicated tip of the Thermage FLX by Solta Medical (USA).
At the Gangnam branch, we also operate the face line of the same Thermage FLX series in addition to Eye Thermage.
We operate lines that can be selected according to your concerns, including Thermage FLX 300 shots that deliver broad RF stimulation to the entire face,
and 600 shots that provide more sufficient stimulation and a full configuration.
We will personally check the option configuration that suits your eye condition
during the consultation.
