Here are photos after the thread lifting and Ultherapy procedures. The thread lifting showed immediate results haha. The accessibility is good, and they take great care of the procedure.

Neither one wins outright; the answer follows where the laxity sits. Deeper support-layer sag points toward focused ultrasound such as Ultherapy; loose, dull skin at the surface points toward radiofrequency such as Thermage; tissue that has already dropped may need a PDO thread to reposition it. Barog Clinic keeps 12 lifting devices, the price board is the same for international patients, and energy treatments usually run with no real downtime and repeat roughly every six months to a year. When laxity is heavy, the consultation states plainly where a single device reaches its limit and where a surgical facelift is the realistic route.
Ultherapy or Thermage, HIFU or radiofrequency, energy or a thread? The device name matters far less than which layer of your face is loosening. This page lays the clinic's lifting devices out by skin condition so you arrive at the consultation already pointed in a direction.
| Treatment | Procedure time | Downtime | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultherapy Prime | 30–60 min (by shots) | Minimal: brief redness for a few days | About 1 year |
| Thermage FLX | 45–90 min | Minimal: brief redness for a few days | 1–2 years |
| Shurink Universe | 20–40 min (by shots) | Minimal: brief redness for a few days | 6–12 months |
| LinearFirm lifting | Varies by area | Minimal: brief redness for a few days | 6–12 months |
| MINT thread lift | 30–60 min (by threads) | Swelling, tightness a few days to 2 weeks | 6–12 months |
| Re2O injection | 20–30 min | Injection marks, redness 1–3 days | Varies by person |
| Radiesse filler | 15–30 min | Bruising, swelling a few days to 1 week | 12–18 months |

Most people open with "is Ultherapy better than Thermage", but that question points the wrong way. Facial laxity is not one thing; it happens in layers. Deepest is the support structure that carries the face; in the middle, the fat pads slide and deflate; at the surface, the skin itself loses tone and elasticity. Because each device works at a different depth, the practical form of "which is better" is "which layer is loosening on you" — a question about your face, and price follows only after that reading.
Laid out by the layer they act on, the clinic's lifting routes sort cleanly. Focused ultrasound, the HIFU family, concentrates energy deeper under the skin and leans toward the support layer. Radiofrequency, the mechanism behind Thermage, delivers heat across the dermis and leans toward overall skin firming and texture. A PDO thread lift is mechanical traction, suited to tissue that has already dropped and needs repositioning now. And regenerative injectables take a different road altogether: not tightening, but replenishing what the skin has lost. Understanding this layering is more useful than memorizing any single brand.
Barog Clinic hands that decision to the consultation. The medical team reads where the laxity is coming from, then decides whether one device answers it or a layered combination does. "Combination" here means letting each layer be treated by the tool built for it, which keeps you from paying twice to overwork a single depth.
Break the broad phrase "anti-aging lifting" into a few common situations and it gets easier to place yourself. Someone in their twenties to thirties, with no real sag yet and only a preventive-management goal, usually starts at a gentle entry-tier focused ultrasound; the highest-priced device is not the starting point at that stage. For texture, that group can add a light regenerative injectable, which often does more than piling on additional energy.
By the thirties to forties, when the jawline starts to blur and the nasolabial folds deepen, the support layer and the skin layer are typically sliding at once. Here a layered plan, focused ultrasound plus radiofrequency, or energy plus a thread, tends to spend better than pushing a single machine harder, because it avoids paying twice to overwork the same depth. And once soft tissue has visibly dropped past what energy alone can gather, the mechanical pull of a thread is often the step that cannot be skipped.
One group needs the cold water up front: if laxity has reached the point where a surgical facelift is the real answer, no non-surgical device replaces it, only improves the picture within limits. The consultation states the ceiling of what a device can do plainly, and it will not sell a course of treatments against a problem the device cannot solve. Aligning expectations is the most money-saving step in any anti-aging plan.
The practical draw of doing a face lift in Busan is that most energy routes carry no real downtime, which slots them neatly into a travel schedule. The clinic sits about a two-minute walk from Seomyeon Station, in the Seomyeon shopping and medical-street district where Busan's two main subway lines cross, so a session drops into a day out and still leaves the day free. Weekday hours run until 8pm, late enough to arrive on the same day you land at Gimhae International Airport and still take an evening slot.
The one thing worth settling in advance is how many layers to treat in a single visit. Energy treatments usually let you return to normal that day, but if the consultation advises energy plus a thread, the recovery rhythm shifts and the itinerary needs wider gaps. Ask on WhatsApp which parts can be done at once and which should be spaced, then book the flights and the length of stay around the answer.
The consultation starts by identifying which layer is loosening: the deep support layer, the fat pads that have shifted, or the skin's own elasticity at the surface. This reading decides every choice that follows, because different energies reach different depths.
Focused ultrasound reaches the deep support layer; radiofrequency spreads heat through the dermis for surface firming; a PDO thread physically repositions tissue that has already dropped. With 12 lifting and tightening devices on site, the plan is chosen to fit the reading, not the other way around.
Once the device is chosen, the shot count, thread count, or treated zone is fixed, along with whether it runs in one visit or across sessions. Every figure is read off the posted price board. What can safely be combined in a single day, and what should be spaced apart, is explained before anything begins.
Lifting works as an ongoing cycle, since no single session makes the result permanent. Energy devices generally hold roughly six months to a year, so the medical team sets a suggested interval and, for travelers, a review point before a long flight home.
Lifting is priced by shot count, thread count, or zone, so the range is wide and this page gives only one entry anchor. For the graduated price of each individual device, open its detail page and read the board there. The posted board is the same board, at the same price, for local and international patients.

Building this as an overview page only works if the clinic actually carries the range behind it. Barog Clinic keeps 12 lifting and tightening devices, with focused ultrasound, radiofrequency, linear applicators, and PDO threads each on their own track, so the medical team can match the layer that is loosening to a device built for that depth. When a clinic runs one machine, the treatment bends to fit it; here the plan bends to fit your face. On the day, the console and applicator model are visible in the treatment room.
Sixteen manufacturer authenticity certificates are held on site, covering both injectables and energy devices, and can be checked one by one in person. A dedicated Korean- and English-facing coordinator, not an outside broker, handles communication from pre-trip questions through follow-up, so device models and the trade-offs between routes can be settled before you commit to the flight to Busan.

Focused ultrasound and radiofrequency for skin tightening carry years of international literature. A few papers are listed below for reference before you decide; the originals are English-language journals, the subject is the technology itself, and outcomes vary with device and individual.
