If you want to take care of recovery and hydration after an Intense Ultra procedure at our Gangnam branch

June 11, 2026

Hello.

I am Director Hwang Jeong-hwang of Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.

Have you ever felt that your skin becomes sensitive and your overall skin condition drops for a few days after treatments like lasers or peels?

"From the day after a strong treatment, my makeup doesn't sit well, and I suffer from redness and dryness all at once, so the recovery period is a burden."

When the skin is exposed to external stimuli, its moisture balance is temporarily disrupted, and collagen-degrading enzymes are activated, creating an environment where recovery is slowed down.

Intense Ultra at Gangnam is designed to reset the environment of the epidermis and the upper dermis by rapidly alternating soft vibrations from within.

It is a structure that adjusts the collagen environment and moisture balance simultaneously by creating pressure changes between cells, as if tapping the inside with two-beat vibrations that alternate rapidly.

Today, I will explain what Intense Ultra at Gangnam is and how the two options, 6 minutes and 12 minutes, differ.

What is Intense Ultra at Gangnam?

👉 Intense Ultra at Gangnam is a non-invasive LDM (Local Dynamic Micro-massage) treatment that uses 1MHz, 3MHz, and 10MHz multi-frequency ultrasound with alternating wavelengths to organize the collagen environment and moisture balance in the epidermis and upper dermis.

LDM is a high-density ultrasound technology developed in Germany, which works by rapidly alternating different frequencies to create microscopic pressure changes between cells.

This pressure change is known to inhibit the activity of collagen-degrading enzymes (MMP) and stimulate fibroblasts that produce collagen and heat shock proteins (HSP), thereby resetting the skin's internal environment.

While HIFU focuses on lifting by acting deeply on the SMAS fascia layer (3.0–4.5mm), Intense Ultra focuses on the epidermis and upper dermis to improve the skin's original condition and moisture environment.

Technical Features of Intense Ultra at Gangnam

👉 Intense Ultra at Gangnam is an LDM-based device that combines multi-frequency, alternating wavelength methods, and a non-invasive action structure.

1MHz, 3MHz, 10MHz Multi-frequency

It operates with three frequencies to act differently at various depths.

10MHz is known to act on the shallow layer near the epidermis, 3MHz on the upper dermis, and 1MHz on deeper layers.

Alternating Wavelength Method

As two frequencies are emitted in rapid succession, it creates microscopic pressure changes between cells, stimulating the collagen production environment.

Cellular Level Action

It is reported to inhibit collagen-degrading enzyme (MMP) activity, activate fibroblasts and heat shock proteins, and even rearrange moisture-retaining components like hyaluronic acid.

Non-invasive Structure

Because it acts using ultrasound energy without irritating the skin surface, it is characterized by almost no downtime such as pain, swelling, or redness.

Effects and Advantages of Intense Ultra at Gangnam

👉 The core advantages of Intense Ultra at Gangnam can be summarized into three points: non-invasive care without downtime, support for post-treatment recovery, and simultaneous approach to collagen and hydration.

First, there is almost no downtime.

As a non-invasive ultrasound method, makeup is often possible immediately after the procedure, and it is reported that returning to daily life is quick.

Second, it can be used to support recovery after other treatments.

It is recommended for skin that has become sensitive immediately after treatments such as lasers, peels, radiofrequency, or fillers, as it helps stabilize the recovery environment with soft vibrations.

  • Finally, it provides both collagen stimulation and hydration.

It is a structure where collagen degradation is inhibited while production is stimulated, and moisture balance is adjusted simultaneously within a single care session.

Types of Intense Ultra at Gangnam

👉 At the Gangnam branch, Intense Ultra is a premium LDM care line operated with two time options: 6 minutes and 12 minutes.

  • If the goal is light soothing and hydration, the 6-minute option is recommended, and if you want to support recovery after other treatments or even reset the internal environment, the 12-minute option is usually chosen.

The time configuration that suits your schedule and care goals will be determined during the pre-treatment consultation.

Who is Intense Ultra at Gangnam for?

Those who want a short recovery period after treatments like lasers, peels, or fillers

  • Those who want to soothe skin conditions that have become sensitive due to frequent external stimuli

Those who want to address both collagen and hydration without downtime

Those looking for an option that can be received as daily care within a short time

  • Those who need auxiliary care to be carried out in stages with other treatments

Side Effects and Things to Know Before Intense Ultra at Gangnam

👉 Intense Ultra at Gangnam is a treatment where changes become stable when performed cumulatively at 5–7 day intervals rather than as a one-time procedure.

Due to the non-invasive ultrasound method, side effects such as pain, swelling, or marks are almost non-existent.

However, in the case of very sensitive skin, light warmth or mild redness may be felt temporarily immediately after the procedure, which is reported to subside naturally in most cases.

It is helpful for your satisfaction to understand in advance that this is a treatment for the epidermis and upper dermis, not a lifting procedure.

If the goal is deep SMAS fascia layer lifting, HIFU-type treatments are recommended separately.

Please inform us in advance as the treatment may be restricted in the following cases:

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding

If there is active inflammation, herpes, or infection in the treatment area

If you use internal electrical devices such as an artificial pacemaker

If you have a history of implants or thread procedures in the treatment area

If you are taking photosensitive medication (for light-based technology lines)

⚠️ Precautions Before and After Intense Ultra at Gangnam

👉 Pre- and post-treatment management at each stage affects the recovery environment and the perceived results of Intense Ultra at Gangnam.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q. How is Intense Ultra at Gangnam different from HIFU lifting like Ultherapy or Shurink?

HIFU focuses on lifting by acting on the SMAS fascia layer (3.0–4.5mm depth), while Intense Ultra focuses on the epidermis and upper dermis to improve skin condition and moisture environment.

They are sometimes used together because their action depths and purposes differ.

Q. How should I choose between the 6-minute and 12-minute Intense Ultra at Gangnam?

The 6-minute option is recommended for light soothing and hydration, while the 12-minute option is recommended if you want to support recovery after other treatments or even strengthen the internal collagen environment.

We will determine this together during the pre-treatment consultation based on your care goals.

  • Q. Can I receive Intense Ultra at Gangnam along with other treatments?

  • In many cases, yes.

  • It is sometimes performed as recovery support immediately after laser, peel, or radiofrequency treatments, and is also used as soothing care after injection treatments like fillers or skin boosters.

  • Whether simultaneous treatment is possible will be determined along with your schedule during the pre-treatment consultation.

  • Q. How many sessions of Intense Ultra at Gangnam should I receive?

Although it varies depending on skin condition and care goals, changes tend to stabilize when performed cumulatively at 5–7 day intervals.

It is reported that the more sessions you have, the more your skin condition stabilizes.

Q. Is there any pain when receiving Intense Ultra at Gangnam?

As it is a non-invasive ultrasound method, there is almost no pain.

Most people find it comfortable, feeling only a soft vibration.

Q. Can I wear makeup immediately after receiving Intense Ultra at Gangnam?

As it is a non-invasive care, light makeup is often possible immediately after the procedure.

There is almost no burden on returning to daily life, so it is easy to receive during lunch hours or between outings.

Q. Does Intense Ultra at Gangnam have a lifting effect?

As it is a treatment that acts on the epidermis and upper dermis, its action depth is different from HIFU lifting, which deals with the SMAS fascia layer.

It is a treatment that focuses on skin condition, hydration, and organizing the collagen environment.

  • When external stimuli accumulate, the skin's moisture balance is temporarily disrupted, and an environment where skin condition drops is created.

  • Intense Ultra at Gangnam is a non-invasive LDM care that uses multi-frequency ultrasound with alternating wavelengths to organize the collagen environment and hydration in the epidermis and upper dermis.

  • With almost no downtime and short 6-minute and 12-minute options, it is a line that can be received lightly as daily care or used as recovery support after other treatments.

  • We will personally check the time configuration that suits your care goals and schedule during the consultation.

  • If you want to take care of recovery and hydration in a short time after treatment, please feel free to visit Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.

Even before deciding on a treatment, we will provide detailed guidance on your skin condition and suitable care directions through a pre-treatment consultation.
