Understanding Titanium Lifting: Benefits, Risks, and Essential Considerations > Plastic Surgery

Hello. I am Dr. Lee Jong-jin, head physician at Ceramique Clinic.

If you're searching for Titanium Lifting and reading this, you're likely hesitant due to concerns about the pain or long recovery associated with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) procedures.

However, understanding this procedure goes beyond just its reduced pain. Pain reduction is a technical advantage, but it doesn't fully explain how the energy interacts with your skin, or who is and isn't a good candidate.

Today, I'll clarify Titanium Lifting. If you're considering a lifting procedure, please dedicate just three minutes to reading this.

Titanium Lifting uses three diode laser wavelengths (755nm, 810nm, and 1064nm) simultaneously. This isn't just mixing energy; it's about targeting specific layers from the surface to the deep dermis.

755nm/810nm: These primarily stimulate collagen and elastin regeneration in the dermis, contributing to long-term elasticity improvement.

1064nm: The deepest wavelength, reaching the fat layer boundary to tighten tissues.

This layered energy delivery reduces pain. It's more accurate to say the pain is significantly lower compared to other high-intensity devices, rather than claiming it's completely painless.

The procedure minimizes pain through a powerful real-time cooling system. As the laser energy heats the tissue, the device tip instantly cools the skin surface, blocking heat sensation in the epidermis that causes pain. Most patients feel warmth during the procedure.

When discussing lifting procedures, side effects are important. High-intensity thermal energy devices often raise concerns about volume loss (fat atrophy). However, Titanium Lifting has a relatively low risk of volume loss due to its energy delivery method.

Unlike HIFU, which creates strong thermal coagulation points in specific deep tissues, Titanium Lifting:

1. Delivers three wavelengths across a broad area in a dispersed manner.
2. Gradually raises the temperature of deep tissues.

This minimizes rapid volume loss from concentrated fat cell destruction.

Even those with very little fat don't need to fear volume loss as much as with other devices.

Titanium laser energy is delivered to all skin layers. In the process of stimulating collagen regeneration, it temporarily irritates the dermis's moisture barrier.

This commonly causes moisture loss and increased skin sensitivity after the procedure, leading to tightness or dryness.

Those with weak skin barriers or sensitive skin may experience redness or itching for several days, beyond simple dryness.

Despite Titanium Lifting's low risk of volume loss, a basic safety issue is often overlooked: the authenticity and single-use principle of the tip used during the procedure.

A procedure's effectiveness and safety depend greatly on the tip, which connects the device to the skin.

Genuine tips are designed to maintain accurate energy density for a set number of uses. Non-genuine or reused tips can deliver uneven energy or cause unexpected excessive heat damage.

This goes beyond reduced effectiveness. Uneven energy delivery can increase the risk of serious side effects like burns, pigmentation, or localized atrophy.

While verifying authenticity is an ethical obligation of the clinic, you have the right to confirm the use of a genuine, new tip before the procedure.

The effects of Titanium Lifting are well-known, but the risks are often not. Understanding the mechanisms and practical precautions discussed today will ensure a safer experience.

Thank you.
