Ultherapy and Thermage Combo explained

This is a combination plan, not a separate device. Ultherapy (울쎄라) and Thermage FLX (써마지) are done in the same visit or a few weeks apart. Korean clinics often call it 울써마지.


How Ultherapy and Thermage Combo works

Ultherapy delivers focused ultrasound to the SMAS and deep dermis, creating small heat points that lift and firm deeper tissue. Thermage uses monopolar radiofrequency to heat the dermis more broadly, tightening skin and improving texture. Clinics often do Ultherapy first and Thermage second, so the two act at different depths.
