ALLTITE Lifting

This is a non-surgical lifting procedure using an RF (radiofrequency) lifting device from INNOXUS, a domestic medical device company. It applies DLTD (Dermis Layer Target Dielectric heating) technology to manage skin elasticity and facial contours.

It utilizes a dielectric heating method that rapidly vibrates water molecules within the skin using high-frequency energy, generating heat within the tissue. It is designed to deliver heat towards the lower dermis and superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) layer while cooling the epidermis.

ALLTITE is mostly performed without anesthetic cream and has minimal bruising or swelling, making it a popular choice for those concerned about pain and downtime associated with lifting procedures.

Immediately after the procedure, many people feel their skin tightening and their jawline becoming more defined. Subsequently, collagen regeneration can lead to gradual improvements in elasticity.

Furthermore, it is designed to leave relatively less heat in the fat layer, making it a suitable option for those with less facial fat or thin skin who are concerned about hollow cheeks.

At Kkeuthan Clinic, Seongsu-Konkuk University branch, instead of mechanically distributing the same number of shots across the entire face, we first assess skin thickness, fat volume, degree of sagging, jawline, and buccal fat pad condition to determine if ALLTITE is suitable for your face. Then, we adjust the number of shots and energy distribution for each area during the procedure.

DLTD Technology and Two Target Layers

ALLTITE's DLTD technology is characterized by heating two layers at different depths simultaneously with a single RF energy.

Since each layer plays a different role in the skin, it allows for comprehensive management of both skin elasticity and facial contours, rather than heating just one layer.

Lower Dermis

This layer is where collagen and elastin, which support skin elasticity, are concentrated.

When heat is delivered to this layer, skin tissue contracts, leading to a tightening response, followed by potential collagen regeneration.

Direction of the SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) Layer

It focuses on delivering thermal energy to the direction of the SMAS layer, which supports the facial contour, to refine sagging facial lines.

Fat Layer

The fat layer between the two primary target layers is designed to retain relatively less heat, allowing the procedure to maintain facial volume.

Epidermis

During the procedure, energy is delivered while cooling the epidermis, which helps reduce the sensation of heat and discomfort on the skin surface.

Pain and Heat Sensation of ALLTITE Performed Without Anesthesia

ALLTITE is mostly performed immediately without anesthetic cream, so there's no need to apply cream and wait.

During the procedure, a warming sensation is primarily felt deep within the skin, and many describe it as feeling like a warm massage.

However, it is not a completely pain-free procedure.

In areas where the skin is thin or close to the bone, such as the jawline or below the cheekbones, a momentary hot or tingling sensation may be felt. The intensity of the heat sensation can vary depending on skin thickness, energy settings, and the speed at which the handpiece is moved.

At Kkeuthan Clinic, Seongsu-Konkuk University branch, we monitor skin temperature and reactions during the procedure, adjusting the energy and speed in areas where a strong heat sensation is felt.

Immediate Tightening and Downtime After Procedure

ALLTITE works by delivering heat into the skin to contract collagen fibers. Therefore, many people experience their skin tightening and their jawline, jowls, and mid-face lines becoming more defined immediately after the procedure.

Since it does not involve skin incision or needle stimulation, severe bruising or swelling is uncommon, and most people can perform light cleansing and makeup on the same day as the procedure.

For this reason, it is a lifting procedure often compared with Titanium and Onda by those looking to refine their facial contours before important events like weddings, interviews, photoshohoots, or important appointments.

Temporary redness, warmth, or mild swelling may occur depending on the individual, but usually subsides within a few hours.

Lifting for Faces Concerned About Hollow Cheeks

People with less facial fat or thin skin often worry about their cheeks appearing hollow after lifting procedures.

This is because some lifting procedures deliver a lot of heat to the fat layer, which can result in a reduction of facial volume.

ALLTITE is designed to concentrate heat on the lower dermis and SMAS layer while leaving less heat in the fat layer. Therefore, it can be considered by those who wish to manage skin elasticity and their jawline while maintaining facial volume.

As the elasticity of the dermal layer is also managed, it can help thin skin appear firmer.

However, if you already have hollow cheeks, it's important to selectively distribute shots only to necessary areas, avoiding sunken areas, rather than applying the same energy across the entire face.

Reasons Why Your Face Appears Slimmer After ALLTITE

The reason many people say their face appears smaller after ALLTITE lifting is not primarily due to fat reduction, but rather because the sagging skin and jawline are refined, making the facial contours appear clearer.

When heat is delivered to the lower dermis and SMAS layer, the skin contracts and becomes firmer. As the previously blurred jawline is refined, the lower face can appear slimmer.

Alltite is a device designed to leave less heat in the fat layer, so its purpose differs from procedures that reduce facial fat volume itself.

If the main concern is fat volume in the double chin or lower face, procedures that act on the fat layer can be considered together, and we guide you to the most suitable method for your facial condition through consultation.

Difference Between Single Session and Multiple Sessions

Alltite is a lifting procedure where many experience immediate tightening even after just one session.

However, the pulling sensation immediately after the procedure is due to tissue contraction and may gradually fade over time, while elasticity changes due to collagen regeneration appear slowly over several weeks to months thereafter.

Therefore, some people who receive only one session may feel the effects wear off quickly, and if you desire more stable elasticity changes, it is common to proceed with multiple sessions.

If you have a fixed schedule like a wedding or photoshoot, you can consider a focused approach of about 3 sessions at approximately 4-week intervals to match your schedule.

If the goal is consistent elasticity management, after observing skin reactions and changes from the first session, you can consider extending the intervals and continuing maintenance treatments based on your skin condition, age, and lifestyle.

When undergoing repeated treatments, it is better to adjust the number of shots and their distribution per area after checking the skin's reaction and changes from the previous session, rather than mechanically applying the same shots every time.

Faces Suitable for Alltite and Faces Requiring Other Methods

Alltite is a lifting procedure that focuses on natural tightening and contour refinement rather than dramatic contour changes.

Therefore, it is important for satisfaction to confirm whether your face is suitable for Alltite before the procedure.

When Alltite is a Good Fit

It can be considered in cases where sagging is in the early to moderate stages and the jawline and lower face appear blurred, if you have less facial fat and thin skin and are concerned about hollowness, if you find lifting pain burdensome and wish to receive treatment without anesthesia, or if you want to refine your facial lines without downtime before an important event.

When Considering Other Methods Together

If thick subcutaneous fat and fat volume in the double chin or jowls are the main concerns, Alltite alone may offer limited changes, so procedures that target the fat layer can be considered in combination.

Even in cases of severe sagging, Alltite alone may not achieve the desired level of change, so we guide you on other lifting or treatment methods through consultation.

Two Handpiece Types: D-Type and E-Type

Alltite uses two different types of handpieces, divided by area of application.

D-Type

It is used for elasticity management in relatively broad areas such as facial contour refinement, fine lines around the eyes, sagging cheeks, and perioral lines.

E-Type

It is used for areas where lines need clear definition, such as the V-line, double chin, and jawline.

The choice of handpiece, area of application, and amount of use will be determined after consultation and skin condition assessment.

Meaning of Alltite Shot Count

The shot count of Alltite refers to the number of times energy is delivered to the skin during the procedure.

A higher shot count does not mean a single shot is stronger; rather, it means a wider area can be treated or more shots can be distributed to areas of concern.

Even with the same shot count, the actual treatment content can vary depending on whether it's evenly distributed across the entire face or focused on the jawline and lower face.

Therefore, rather than just comparing shot counts, it is important to also check how shots are distributed to which areas, tailored to your face size and skin condition.

Differences Between Alltite and Other Lifting Procedures

Alltite is often compared with Onda and Titanium due to its minimal downtime and frequently noticeable immediate results, but its energy delivery method differs from Ultherapy and Thermage.

Onda

Onda uses 2.45GHz microwaves to manage skin elasticity and fat volume in the double chin and lower face.

Alltite focuses on reducing fat layer stimulation and tightening towards the dermis and fascia layers. Therefore, if fat volume is the main concern, Onda can be considered, while if elasticity is the concern with volume preservation, Alltite can be considered.

Titanium Lifting

Titanium uses a 755nm·810nm·1064nm triple-wavelength diode laser to manage skin tightening, facial contours, and skin tone simultaneously.

Alltite heats the lower dermis and fascia layers using RF energy, not laser.

Ultherapy

Ultherapy uses HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) energy to create thermal coagulation points by focusing it in a dot-like form at a specific depth within the skin.

Alltite widely heats the lower dermis and fascia layers using RF energy, differing in both energy source and heat delivery method.

Thermage

Thermage heats the dermal layer with monopolar RF, using a disposable tip for each treatment.

Alltite uses RF-based DLTD technology to heat both the lower dermis and the fascial layer, and is performed with a reusable handpiece.

Volnewmer

Volnewmer widely heats the dermis with 6.78MHz monopolar RF to manage skin density and elasticity.

While Alltite is in the same RF family, it differs in that its DLTD technology is designed to target both the lower dermis and fascial layer while leaving less heat in the fat layer.
