What is Thermage FLX?
Firmer, smoother skin without surgery.
Thermage FLX is a monopolar radiofrequency (RF) device made by Solta Medical. It delivers uniform heat into the dermis and deeper connective tissue, which tightens existing collagen and triggers new collagen production for months afterwards. It suits mild-to-moderate laxity, crepey texture and early jowls. It tightens rather than lifts heavy sagging, so for deeper lifting doctors often pair it with Ultherapy PRIME. Expansion & Relocation Promotion prices (27 Oct – 30 Nov 2026, VAT excluded): face 300 shots ₩1,190,000, 600 shots ₩1,790,000, 900 shots ₩2,390,000; eyes 225 shots ₩1,200,000, 450 shots ₩1,750,000.
How it works
The science
,
simplified.
Understanding the mechanism helps you set realistic expectations and compare with alternatives.
01
Uniform RF heating
Monopolar RF energy passes through the skin and heats the dermis and fibrous septae evenly. Collagen fibres contract on contact with the heat, giving a first tightening effect.
02
AccuREP auto-tuning
Before each pulse, AccuREP reads the skin and adjusts the energy, so every area receives consistent heating. This is the main upgrade of the FLX generation.
03
Cooling and vibration
The tip cools the skin surface before, during and after each pulse, and gentle vibration reduces the feeling of heat. Numbing cream is used when needed.
04
Collagen rebuilds over months
New collagen forms gradually. Skin looks firmer at around one month, and the full result usually shows at 3–6 months.

Thermage FLX
questions.
How much does Thermage FLX cost in Busan?
During the Expansion & Relocation Promotion (27 Oct – 30 Nov 2026), face 300 shots is ₩1,190,000 (regular ₩2,000,000), 600 shots ₩1,790,000, 900 shots ₩2,390,000, eyes 225 shots ₩1,200,000 and eyes 450 shots ₩1,750,000. Prices are in KRW and exclude VAT.
Does Thermage FLX hurt?
You feel short pulses of heat. Surface cooling, vibration and numbing cream when needed keep most people comfortable, and energy is adjusted to your tolerance.
How long do Thermage FLX results last?
Results build over 2–6 months and often last around a year or longer, depending on age, skin and lifestyle. Many patients repeat once a year.
Thermage FLX or Ultherapy PRIME?
Thermage uses radiofrequency to tighten the skin and dermis. Ultherapy PRIME uses focused ultrasound to lift the deeper SMAS layer. They are often combined for tightening plus lifting.
How many shots do I need?
300 shots suits a first full-face treatment. 600 shots adds the jawline, and 900 shots covers face and neck. Eye treatment uses a separate 225 or 450 shot tip.
Can I fly home after Thermage FLX?
Yes. There is usually no downtime that prevents flying, so it works well on a short trip to Busan.
Can I combine Thermage with toxin or filler?
Yes, but your doctor will plan the order and timing, usually RF first on the same day or with a short gap.
Do you offer English consultations?
Yes. Newline Clinic supports Korean, English, Japanese and Chinese. Book on WhatsApp at +82 10-6757-4281.
