New Ultherapy Prime in Korea

The Upgraded Gold Standard in Skin Lifting

Now available at Reberry Clinic, one of the first clinics in Korea to offer the 2025 Ultherapy Prime platform with real-time DEEPSEE imaging.

Ultherapy Prime lifts and firms the skin without surgery by delivering micro-focused ultrasound to the deep SMAS layer, the same supportive tissue addressed in a surgical facelift. Energy is precisely placed at three depths (1.5 mm, 3.0 mm and 4.5 mm) to spark new collagen and elastin, so the face tightens gradually and naturally over 8 to 12 weeks. There are no incisions and no downtime, making it a practical lifting option for international patients who want visible firming on a Seoul trip and continued improvement for months afterward.

What is Ultherapy Prime?

Ultherapy Prime is the 2025-generation upgrade of Ultherapy, a non-invasive lifting treatment that uses micro-focused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V) to firm and tighten skin by stimulating collagen deep beneath the surface. It treats early to moderate sagging of the brow, cheeks, jawline, chin and neck without surgery, needles or downtime, which is why many people describe it as a non-surgical alternative to a facelift.

Compared with earlier Ultherapy, Prime adds roughly 35% higher-resolution imaging and can be planned across deeper tissue, letting the doctor tailor each line of energy to your individual skin thickness and fat distribution. Real-time DEEPSEE imaging lets the practitioner actually see the layers being treated, so energy lands on the intended collagen-rich tissue while avoiding bone and vessels.

Because Ultherapy relies on ultrasound rather than light or laser, it carries no pigment-related risk and is appropriate across the full range of skin tones, including the deeper Asian phototypes commonly seen at our clinic. Treatment is performed at Reberry Clinic by the clinic’s doctors, with English-speaking support for international patients across our three Seoul-area locations.

Advanced Micro Focused Ultrasound Technology

Ultherapy Prime uses micro-focused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V) paired with real-time DEEPSEE imaging. It focuses controlled ultrasound energy into precise points at three depths, 1.5 mm (superficial dermis), 3.0 mm (deep dermis and superficial fat) and 4.5 mm (the SMAS), the structural layer surgeons tighten during a facelift. At each focal point the tissue is briefly heated to roughly 60-70 degrees Celsius, creating tiny thermal coagulation points without breaking the skin surface.

These micro-points denature existing collagen and trigger a controlled wound-healing response, recruiting fibroblasts that lay down fresh collagen and elastin over the following weeks. The high-resolution touchscreen and wider ultrasound window let the doctor visualize each layer before delivering energy, customizing line placement to your anatomy for safer, more even treatment. Prime’s faster processing and ergonomic handpiece also shorten the session and improve comfort versus the legacy device, while results in firmness, smoothness and contour build progressively over 2 to 3 months.

How it works

How Ultherapy Prime Works

Precise Ultrasound Energy Targeting
Ultherapy Prime focuses ultrasound energy at three depths, including 4.5 mm, to reach the Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System (SMAS) and deeper fascia that structurally support the face. This focused energy passes through the surface untouched and concentrates on the foundational layer, starting a lifting and tightening effect from within that addresses skin laxity at its source rather than only at the surface.
Using DEEPSEE technology, Ultherapy Prime gives the doctor real-time, high-resolution ultrasound imaging of the skin layers, with Prime offering roughly 35% sharper visualization than legacy Ultherapy. This lets energy be placed accurately while avoiding bone and blood vessels for greater safety. Each focal point is heated to a controlled 60-70 degrees Celsius, forming thermal coagulation zones that denature collagen and prompt the body to build new collagen and elastin.
After treatment, the body runs its natural repair process, producing new collagen and elastin. Over the next 8 to 12 weeks, skin gradually becomes firmer, tighter and more lifted, with full results typically visible by 2 to 3 months and continued improvement for up to 6 months. Because the change comes from your own tissue, results look natural and progressive, with no surgery and no downtime.

Before, After, and Proven Results

At Reberry Clinic we offer Ultherapy Prime, the 2025-generation platform with real-time DEEPSEE imaging. While not every clinic has adopted this device yet, our patients are already benefiting from this advance in non-surgical lifting. Ultherapy Prime delivers gradual, lasting firming of the face, neck and jawline without surgery or downtime, with results building over 2 to 3 months and typically lasting around a year or more.

Our before-and-after images reflect individual treatment plans tailored to each person’s anatomy. Results vary from person to person depending on skin condition, age and the degree of laxity treated, and are not guaranteed; a consultation is the best way to understand what Ultherapy Prime can realistically achieve for you.

Our process

Treatment Timeline & Expectations

01. Initial Consultation
Your Ultherapy Prime journey begins with a 60-minute one-on-one consultation with the clinic’s doctor. We assess your skin condition and degree of laxity, map your facial structure with ultrasound imaging, discuss your goals and expected timeline, and build a customized treatment plan with the right depths and number of energy lines for your anatomy.
On treatment day, a topical numbing cream is applied to the target areas, with optional sedation for patients who are sensitive to discomfort. After about 10 to 20 minutes for the numbing to take effect, the skin is cleansed and marked with a treatment grid to guide precise, even delivery of ultrasound energy. This preparation keeps you comfortable and helps ensure consistent results across the treated zones.
The Ultherapy Prime session itself takes roughly 60 to 90 minutes depending on the areas treated, as micro-focused ultrasound is delivered to the deep dermis and SMAS to stimulate collagen and tighten tissue. You may feel brief warmth or a tingling sensation as each line is placed; the procedure is non-invasive with no needles or incisions. The doctor treats the planned zones, which may include the face, neck, jawline or under-eye area, for natural-looking lift and contour.
Some firming may be noticeable soon after treatment, but the full benefit of Ultherapy Prime builds over 2 to 3 months as new collagen forms, with continued improvement up to about 6 months. Mild redness, slight swelling or tenderness can occur immediately afterward and usually settles within a few days. Over time you should see firmer skin and improved contour, without surgery or downtime.
The collagen-building results of Ultherapy Prime typically last around a year or more, depending on your age and natural rate of skin aging. Most patients are recommended a maintenance session roughly once a year, or as advised after assessment, to support ongoing collagen production and preserve firmness. A consultation lets us set a maintenance schedule suited to your skin and goals.

Safety & Information

Important Contraindications

Scientific Evidence

Micro-focused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V), the technology behind Ultherapy Prime, is supported by peer-reviewed clinical research. In a 2025 Asia-Pacific pilot case series of 30 patients treated with Ultherapy Prime, all physicians and patients (30/30) reported improvement on the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale at day 90, with most achieving a one-point or greater gain in jawline and neck volume regardless of skin phototype, age or BMI. Histological work confirms the mechanism: MFU-V heats tissue to roughly 60-70 degrees Celsius, forming thermal coagulation points that denature collagen and drive measurable neogenesis of collagen and elastin. Korean clinical experience further documents improved jawline definition and reduced submental fullness in Asian patients, the population most commonly treated at our clinic.

What is Ultherapy Prime?

Ultherapy Prime is the 2025-generation, non-surgical lifting treatment that uses micro-focused ultrasound to heat the deep SMAS layer and trigger new collagen. It firms the face, neck and jawline without incisions or downtime. See our Ultherapy Prime page for full details and consultation booking.

Prime offers roughly 35% higher-resolution DEEPSEE imaging and more flexible depth planning than legacy Ultherapy, so the doctor can tailor each energy line to your skin and fat thickness. Its faster handpiece also shortens the session and improves comfort, while the core micro-focused ultrasound mechanism stays the same.

Ultherapy Prime suits adults in their 30s and older with mild to moderate sagging of the brow, cheeks, jawline, chin or neck who prefer a non-surgical option. It is ideal for early laxity rather than severe sagging, where a surgical lift may be more appropriate. Book an Ultherapy Prime consultation to confirm suitability for your skin.

Yes. Because Ultherapy Prime uses ultrasound rather than light or laser, it does not target pigment and carries no pigmentation-change risk, making it appropriate across all Fitzpatrick skin types, including deeper Asian tones. A consultation still confirms the treatment is right for your specific skin condition and goals.

Most patients feel brief warmth or tingling as each ultrasound line is delivered, generally rated moderate. Numbing cream is applied beforehand and optional sedation is available for sensitive patients. Prime’s updated handpiece is designed to improve comfort versus the older device, and any sensation stops as soon as the line is placed.

There is essentially no downtime. Most people return to normal activities the same day. Mild redness, slight swelling or tenderness may appear immediately after treatment and usually settles within a few days. This makes Ultherapy Prime convenient for international patients treating during a short stay in Seoul.

Some firming may show soon after treatment, but full results build over 2 to 3 months as new collagen forms, with continued improvement up to about 6 months. Results typically last around a year or more depending on your natural aging, after which an annual maintenance session is commonly advised.

Many patients see meaningful improvement after a single session, since the treatment relies on your own gradual collagen production. Depending on your skin condition and degree of laxity, an additional session may be advised. Most patients then maintain results with a session roughly once a year as recommended after assessment.

A full session takes roughly 60 to 90 minutes depending on the areas treated, plus about 10 to 20 minutes beforehand for numbing cream to take effect. Your initial consultation is a separate 60-minute appointment where the doctor maps your anatomy and plans the number of energy lines.

Yes. Ultherapy Prime is often paired with treatments that address skin quality or volume, such as Rejuran Healer or Juvelook. The doctor sequences treatments so timing is safe and each works to its full effect. Your plan is customized during consultation.

Ultherapy Prime uses micro-focused ultrasound to lift the deep SMAS layer, while Thermage FLX uses monopolar radiofrequency to tighten skin and smooth surface texture. Lifting versus tightening goals differ, so many patients combine them. A consultation helps decide which suits your concerns best.

Ultherapy Prime stimulates your own collagen for gradual, natural firming with no insertion, while a thread lift places absorbable threads for a more immediate mechanical lift. They address sagging differently and are sometimes combined. The clinic’s doctor advises which approach fits your degree of laxity.

Ultherapy Prime is commonly used on the brow, cheeks, jawline, chin and neck, and can also address the under-eye area and submental (double chin) region. Depths and energy lines are mapped to each zone with real-time imaging. Your consultation determines which areas will benefit most for your goals.

Side effects are usually mild and temporary: redness, slight swelling, tenderness or occasional bruising or numbness that resolve within days. Ultherapy Prime is generally avoided during pregnancy, over active skin infections, or with certain implants or devices in the treatment area. A consultation reviews your medical history for any contraindications.

Aftercare is simple. Keep the skin clean, apply sunscreen, stay hydrated and avoid intense heat such as saunas for a day or two if you feel tender. There are no activity restrictions for most people. The clinic’s doctor gives personalized aftercare advice and books any maintenance session at your follow-up.

Ultherapy Prime needs no downtime, so it fits a short visit. We recommend booking a consultation and treatment with a day’s flexibility for any mild swelling. Reberry Clinic offers English-speaking support and three Seoul-area locations, including one at Incheon Airport, convenient for arrival or departure.

Cost depends on the areas treated and the number of ultrasound lines planned for your anatomy, so we provide a clear quote at consultation rather than a fixed list price. Pricing is the same for everyone. Booking a consultation is the best way to get an accurate estimate for your treatment plan.
