Best Ultherapy in Seoul: Ultherapy Prime at Forena Clinic
Visiting Seoul and considering a non-surgical facelift? Here is everything international patients need to know about Ultherapy Prime — the FDA-cleared HIFU treatment available at Forena Clinic in Seoul — including exact pricing, what to expect, and why Korea leads the world in this technology.
WHY GET ULTHERAPY IN SEOUL?
South Korea is globally recognised as a leader in medical aesthetics. Seoul clinics offer the latest FDA-cleared devices, highly trained practitioners, and prices that are significantly more competitive than clinics in the US, UK, or Australia — often 40–60% lower for the same technology.
Best of all: Ultherapy Prime has zero downtime. You can be back sightseeing the same day.
Quick facts:
- 0 days downtime — resume activities immediately after treatment
- FDA-cleared for neck, chin, and brow lifting
- Full results develop over 1 to 3 months as collagen regenerates
- Results typically last 6 to 12 months
WHAT IS ULTHERAPY PRIME?
Ultherapy Prime is a next-generation High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) treatment that lifts and tightens skin by targeting the SMAS layer — the same deep structural layer addressed in a surgical facelift, without any incisions or recovery time.
What sets Ultherapy Prime apart is its DeepSEE real-time imaging technology, which allows the practitioner to see exactly where in your skin tissue the energy is being delivered. This ensures every shot hits the precise depth needed — making it both safer and more effective than conventional HIFU devices.
Ultherapy Prime is FDA-cleared for lifting and tightening the neck, chin, and brow.
HOW DOES ULTHERAPY PRIME WORK?
The treatment uses three specialised transducer tips, each targeting a different layer of tissue in a single session:
1.5mm tip — Dermal collagen regeneration, improving skin texture and fine lines
3.0mm tip — Subcutaneous fat layer, for facial contouring and density improvement
4.5mm tip — The SMAS foundation layer, responsible for structural lifting of the jawline and lower face
By combining all three depths in one visit, the treatment addresses both surface skin quality and deep structural laxity simultaneously.

WHO IS ULTHERAPY PRIME FOR?
Ultherapy Prime is ideal for visitors to Seoul who:
- Notice a softening jawline, mild jowling, or neck looseness

- Are looking for a clinically proven treatment with no recovery time
- Want a non-invasive alternative to facelifts or thread lifts
- Are already visiting Seoul and want to combine travel with premium aesthetic care
WHAT TO EXPECT: BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER
Before treatment:
A consultation assesses your skin condition and goals. Please inform us of any inflammation or skin conditions in the treatment area.
During the session:
A topical numbing cream can be applied upon request before treatment to maximise comfort. Using DeepSEE real-time imaging, the practitioner delivers ultrasound energy at exact tissue depths. Sessions typically take 15-20 minutes.
After treatment (aftercare):
- You can wash your face and apply makeup immediately
- Avoid saunas, steam rooms, and hot baths for one week
- Apply sunscreen whenever going outdoors — skin is more UV-sensitive after treatment
- Temporary swelling, mild tightness, or light numbing may occur and will resolve naturally
There is no downtime. You can continue your Seoul itinerary the same day.
WHEN WILL YOU SEE RESULTS?
A subtle lifting effect is often noticeable immediately. Full results develop over 1 to 3 months as new collagen matures — meaning the treatment continues working after you return home from Seoul. Results typically last 6 to 12 months depending on skin condition and lifestyle.
