Question 6

Q. 레이저치료 후 색소가 더 심해지는 경우는 왜 그런가요?

Accepted Answer

A. 색소레이저 후 자외선에 노출되면 색소침착이 악화될 수 있으며 염증 후 색소침착이나 기존 색소가 제거되는 과정에서 멜라닌 생성이 촉진되어 색소가 더 진해질 수 있습니다. 이 경우 철저한 자외선 차단과 피부보습에 신경 써 주며 시간이 경과하면 자연스럽게 옅어질 수 있지만 정확한 진단을 통해 추가적인 치료 계획을 세우는 것이 좋겠습니다.

Accepted Answer

Treatments with non-overlapping stimulation depths can be done on the same day. However, combinations where stimulation accumulates are safely performed with 2-4 week intervals.

Question 22

Q. What is the interval between treatments?

Accepted Answer

For the same device, the interval is 6-12 months. Different types of treatments can be combined with an interval of 2-4 weeks. It is safer not to repeat the same stimulation at too short an interval.

Question 23

Q. Are the results unnatural?

Accepted Answer

Autologous collagen stimulation is not artificial filling but a method where your own skin becomes firmer. Since only your original contour lines become clearer without artificial pulling, a natural look that is hard to notice as a change is possible.

Question 24

Q. Can I resume daily activities immediately after the treatment?

Accepted Answer

There is almost no downtime apart from mild redness and swelling. Makeup and daily activities are possible immediately after the treatment.

Question 25

Q. What are the post-treatment precautions?

Accepted Answer

Do not touch for 6 hours, refrain from makeup and massage for 24 hours, and avoid saunas, strenuous exercise, and excessive alcohol for 1 week. Additional guidance will be provided depending on the treated area.

Accepted Answer

Daily UV protection, gentle cleansing, and using prescribed care products are most important. These are fundamental for maintaining treatment results.

Question 28

Q. How important is UV protection after treatment?

Accepted Answer

It is as important as the treatment itself. Blocking new melanin before it develops is key to maintaining the effect. Daily use of SPF 50+ PA++++ is recommended.

Question 29

Q. What if my condition declines between sessions?

Accepted Answer

Between sessions, we maintain your condition with calming, moisturizing, and management treatments. As regular care accumulates, the effects of subsequent treatments become more stable.

Question 30

Q. Can I receive multiple medications at once?

Accepted Answer

Each medication has a different depth of action and mechanism, so combinations are possible. However, injecting too much at once can prolong swelling, so it is recommended to distribute the injections.

Question 31

Q. Which is better, RF or HIFU?

Accepted Answer

Rather than one being superior, their penetration depths differ. RF heats the dermis layer over an area, while HIFU provides coagulation stimulation at a single point in the SMAS layer. The appropriate depth varies depending on the sagging stage, and often, both are combined.

Question 32

Q. What are the advantages of direct intravenous injection?

Accepted Answer

While oral intake is partially lost in the stomach, IV is delivered directly to the blood vessels, resulting in an absorption rate of almost 100%. The effects are rapid, and there is no gastrointestinal burden.

Question 33

Q. Can I immediately resume daily activities after IV treatment?

Accepted Answer

Normal activities are possible within 5 minutes after the intravenous injection, with no restrictions on exercise, washing face, or eating. For some medications, only moderation of alcohol consumption is recommended.

Question 34

Accepted Answer

For single-session recovery, 1-3 sessions are recommended. For long-term condition management, 4-10 sessions, 1-2 times per week, are recommended. The exact number is determined based on the patient's condition during consultation.

Question 35

Q. Are there any side effects from IV injections?

Accepted Answer

Rarely, there may be vascular irritation, redness, or temporary itching at the injection site, but most symptoms disappear within 30 minutes. Drug allergies are checked during the pre-treatment consultation.

Question 36

Question 46

Accepted Answer

By refining your body lines with TuneBody (EMS+RF) and Body Onda (RF) simultaneously with weight loss, your skin will tighten together. Sagging prevention care is key.

Question 47

Q. How do Wegovy and Mounjaro (GLP-1) work?

These drugs mimic the GLP-1 hormone, increasing satiety and slowing gastric emptying, thereby reducing food intake and appetite. It is administered as a once-weekly self-injection.

Question 48

Q. Should I combine exercise and diet with the treatment?

Accepted Answer

While changes can be seen with the treatment alone, combining light aerobic exercise and diet management between sessions will prolong the duration of the effects.

Question 49

Accepted Answer

Most body treatments are non-invasive, so there is almost no downtime. Minor bruising or swelling may occur for a few days after the treatment, but daily activities can be resumed as usual.

Question 50

Accepted Answer

Most packages consist of 4 to 10 sessions, spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart. For localized fat, 4 to 6 sessions are needed, and for body line refinement, 8 to 10 accumulated sessions are required for changes to become established.

Question 51

Q. Do collagen boosters show immediate effects?

Accepted Answer

CaHA particles are directly filled into the dermis, so volume and elasticity are visible immediately after treatment. Subsequently, autologous collagen grows over 4-8 weeks, making the results more stable.

Question 52

Q. How do collagen boosters and skin boosters differ?

Accepted Answer

Collagen boosters directly inject collagen and ECM into the dermis, while skin boosters (Juvelook, Sculptra) stimulate autologous collagen production. The difference lies in direct injection versus stimulation.

Question 53

Q. How do Radiesse (CaHA) and Rituo (hADM) differ?

Accepted Answer

Radiesse's CaHA particles immediately fill volume and gradually stimulate collagen, while Rituo's hADM (acellular homologous dermis) replenishes the dermal ECM itself. Their sites of action and mechanisms differ.

Question 54

Q. How many sessions of collagen booster are needed?

Accepted Answer

With 1-2 injections, the effect typically lasts 1-2 years. Regular replenishment is recommended every 1-2 years.

Question 55

Q. How does ShineU's proprietary contour injection differ from general ones?

Accepted Answer

It is ShineU's own proprietary blend, not a single commercially available drug. We design the ratios of PPC, deoxycholic acid, and L-carnitine to match the area and thickness, and adjust with 4/6/9/12cc options.

Question 56

Q. How many sessions of contour injection are recommended?

Accepted Answer

While effects can be seen with a single session, a 5-session package is recommended for firm volume and precise V-line design. Sessions are typically 4-6 weeks apart.

Question 57

Q. When do the effects of contour injection appear?

Accepted Answer

Swelling peaks 4-5 hours immediately after the treatment and subsides over 1-2 weeks. The V-line becomes clearer after the swelling has resolved.

Question 58

Q. How should I care for my skin after contour injection?

Accepted Answer

Drink more than 2L of water daily, avoid saunas, excessive alcohol, and strenuous exercise for 1 week. Strong massages are prohibited.

Question 59

Q. Which filler brand should I choose?

Accepted Answer

Restylane and Juvederm have high viscosity, suitable for contour areas like the nose bridge and chin. Belotero is softer, ideal for the eye area and fine lines. Matching the area with the viscosity is key.

Question 60

Q. How long do the effects last?

Accepted Answer

6 months to 2 years, depending on the product and area. HA fillers are naturally absorbed over time, so regular touch-ups are necessary.

Question 61

Q. What if I'm not satisfied with the results?

Accepted Answer

HA fillers can be dissolved and reversed with Hyalase. We evaluate the results 2 weeks after the treatment and make adjustments if necessary.

Question 62

Q. Can it be removed cleanly without scars?

Accepted Answer

With picosecond pulses, there is almost no damage to surrounding tissues. However, slight pigmentation may remain depending on the amount and location of the pigment.

Question 63

Q. Can semi-permanent makeup also be removed?

All semi-permanent makeup for eyebrows, eyeliners, and lips can be removed with PicoSure. The number of sessions varies depending on the type and color of the pigment, and for narrow areas, the output and range are precisely adjusted.

Question 64

Q. How long is the interval between treatments?

Accepted Answer

4-6 weeks until the next treatment. Fine scabs naturally fall off in 5-7 days, after which sun protection and soothing care continue.
