Potenza and Ultherapy
Hello 😊
I’m Dr. Kim Yeon-jin, director of
UH CELL Clinic Gangnam ( formerly Doctor Petit Clinic Gangnam),
located in Gangnam, Seoul – the heart of the Korean beauty industry.
(Potenza and Ulthera—
this is a lifting combination I’ve been consistently offering
since my time at Doctor Petit Clinic Gangnam,
and we’ve continued this service under our new name, UH CELL Gangnam 🙂)

Does East Asian skin really age more slowly?
As many of you know, East Asians generally have longer life expectancy,
and their skin is often considered to age more slowly compared to some other populations.
However, this is merely a “relative difference”;
as we age, a loss of skin elasticity, sagging, and wrinkles are natural changes that occur over time.
Therefore, lifting treatments have become increasingly popular at Korean aesthetic clinics in Gangnam, Seoul.

Potenza vs. Ultherapy: Understanding the Differences
Potenza and Ultherapy are two representative lifting treatments in Korean aesthetic medicine, but they work through different principles.
✔ Potenza (Radiofrequency Lifting)
→ Delivers radiofrequency energy to the dermis
→ Improves skin elasticity and refines skin texture
→ Helps improve long-term skin condition
✔ Ultherapy (HIFU ultrasound Lifting )
→ Delivers focused ultrasound energy to deeper layers, including the SMAS layer
→ Helps improve sagging facial contours
→ Effective for improving sagging jawlines and cheeks
As mentioned above, the key point of these two devices at Korea Beauty in Gangnam, Seoul,
is that they work by targeting different layers of the skin.
Then, would it be better to receive both treatments together?
Yes, they can be combined.
Since skin texture, elasticity, and facial contour concerns involve different layers of the skin:
✔ Potenza → Improves skin elasticity from within
✔ Ultherapy → Overall Lifting
By combining these treatments, you can expect the “three-dimensional lifting effect” described by Korean Beauty in Gangnam, Seoul.


What is the treatment sequence?
At Korea Beauty in Gangnam, Seoul, the treatment is usually performed in the following order.
👉 Radiofrequency Lifting (Potenza) first
👉 Followed by ultrasound lifting (Ultherapy)
Following this sequence, the treatment first improve skin elasticity from within, and then helps refines facial contours, so
✔ Facial contours are gently smoothed and defined,
✔ Skin elasticity and volume are restored, and
✔ You’ll notice an overall improvement in skin texture.
We especially recommend this to:
- Those who want to improve both skin elasticity and facial contours at the same time
- Those with less facial fat but concerns about skin elasticity
- Those who want a lifting treatment that produces natural-looking results
- Those who want to experience authentic Korean aesthetic treatments
At the Korean Aesthetic Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, we tailor the intensity of Potenza and Ultherapy treatments
to each individual’s facial shape and skin condition.
One final tip!
Since Potenza and Ulthera are relatively low-impact procedures,
even first-time lifters can feel comfortable trying them 🙂
With the upcoming vacation season, getting a Korean aesthetic lifting treatment in Gangnam, Seoul,
to achieve naturally firm skin could be a great choice.
