- Approach
- Energy-based treatment
- Your plan
- Assessed individually
How the approach works.
The official page describes ultrasound imaging with DeepSEE and focused energy delivery. Imaging, planned treatment zones and individual anatomy inform the procedure.
Understanding the anatomy
AI-generated educational illustrations, not patient photographs or treatment results. Simplified and not to scale; they do not show an individual treatment plan.
The epidermis sits above the dermis, with subcutaneous fat deeper below. Layer thickness is schematic.
Understanding ultrasound depths
Clair describes ultrasound imaging with DeepSEE and focused energy delivery. This diagram compares treatment heads with different depth labels; it is not a sequence of treatment steps.
Different depths, different treatment heads
The image labels 1.5 mm, 3.0 mm and 4.5 mm treatment depths. Individual anatomy and ultrasound imaging guide the clinician’s choice; these labels are not a recommended depth for every patient.

Structures to discuss

Separate focal points illustrate focused ultrasound. Their drawn positions do not specify treatment depth.
Recovery, risks & limits.
Some reactions can be temporary; complications can also require treatment. This is not an exhaustive list.
Redness, swelling, pain and temporary nerve effects have been reported.
Bruising, tenderness, numbness or tingling can occur. Burns and scarring are also possible.
Ask about contraindications and the instructions for the exact system and treatment area proposed for you.
Your timeline is individual.
Procedure time, anaesthesia, follow-up and return travel depend on your examination and the final plan. Confirm them before paying for flights or accommodation.
Recovery and results vary. Your clinician should explain the procedure-specific risks and aftercare before you decide.
If you develop severe or worsening symptoms after treatment, seek medical attention rather than waiting for an online reply.
Dr. JinHo Han
Representative surgeon · Plastic surgery specialist
A personal consultation with a plastic surgery specialist. Discuss your facial features, skin condition and treatment preferences before deciding on a plan.
Your questions, answered.
Can an energy treatment replace any operation?
No. The degree of skin laxity and the tissues involved matter. Ask about realistic limits and alternatives rather than assuming equivalent outcomes.
How long should I stay in Korea?
Procedure time, anaesthesia, follow-up and return travel depend on your examination and the final plan. Confirm them before paying for flights or accommodation.
Can I choose the procedure before an examination?
You can explore your options first. The final plan requires an examination, a discussion of alternatives and informed consent. Choosing no treatment is also an option.
How is the cost decided?
The clinic confirms the proposed method, treatment area and product or equipment before giving an individual quote. Ask what is included in follow-up care.
What should I disclose before treatment?
Tell the clinician about previous procedures, implants, medication, allergies and health conditions. Bring available details of earlier injections or surgery.
