Learn All About the Collagen Booster Ultracol at Cheongdam Orsayun Clinic.

 Hello, I’m Dr. Jo Yun-kyung from Orsayun Clinic.

Today, I’d like to introduce Ultracol, a collagen booster for those considering natural-looking volume enhancement. When certain areas of the face look hollow or lack volume, it can be difficult to decide which treatment to choose. You may be wondering what Ultracol is made of, which areas of the face can be treated, and what the treatment and recovery process involve. Today, I’ll walk you through why Ultracol may be chosen, the areas that can be treated, the treatment process, pain and bruising, treatments that may be considered in combination, and actual treatment cases.

Ultracol is a product developed using small particles of PDO so it can be used in various areas of the face. PDO is a material that has been used in the medical field for many years and is also used in thread-lifting procedures. One feature of Ultracol is that, in addition to adding volume, it is intended to stimulate collagen production, with the potential for natural-looking changes to develop over time. It may be an option for people who want to improve hollow areas of the face but prefer natural-looking changes rather than excessive volume.

Ultracol may be considered for areas of the face where volume is lacking or hollowing is a concern. Common areas include forehead lines, hollowing above the eyebrows, the under-eye area, the front of the cheeks, the nasolabial fold area, and hollowing in the outer cheeks. Of these areas, the under-eye area is one I pay particular attention to. The skin under the eyes can be thin and may have reduced elasticity, so treatment in this area requires careful consideration. With fillers, the amount injected and the injection location can sometimes make the area look overly full or puffy. Ultracol, on the other hand, may allow for a more natural-looking change.

During Ultracol treatment, Ultracol is used together with distilled water and an anesthetic. Temporary swelling may occur immediately after treatment due to the injected materials and the tissue response. Initial swelling may subside over approximately two to three days, although recovery can vary depending on the individual’s skin condition and the treated area. An important component of Ultracol is PDO. As the PDO is absorbed over time, collagen production may contribute to gradual changes.

Pain, bruising, and swelling are common concerns for people considering treatment. An anesthetic can be used during Ultracol treatment to help reduce discomfort. If you have sensitive skin or are concerned about pain, you may be wondering what options are available. The level of discomfort can vary depending on individual sensitivity and the treatment area. If you are sensitive to pain, it is a good idea to let your clinician know before the procedure. Bruising varies from person to person and may take about a week to fade. In my experience treating patients, I have rarely seen bruising occur. However, this is not the same for everyone, so it is best to plan your schedule with recovery time in mind.

The first option is thread lifting. Thread lifting uses medical threads to support tissue and help improve facial contours. Combining Ultracol with thread lifting may offer a more noticeable effect in suitable cases.The second options are skin boosters or Skin Tox. These treatments may be considered in combination depending on your skin condition and treatment goals. Combining them with treatments targeting the skin’s surface may help achieve a better overall result. It is important to assess your current skin condition and the areas you want to improve first, then choose an appropriate approach based on the characteristics and necessity of each treatment.
