Combined Energy Lifting

What is V-RO Lifting?

V-RO Lifting is a combined-energy lifting procedure that pairs focused ultrasound (HIFU) and radiofrequency (RF), which simultaneously stimulates the skin’s deep SMAS layer to the dermis layer to improve elasticity and induce a lifting effect. It is an age-defying procedure that stimulates collagen regeneration without incisions, naturally refines facial lines, and improves skin texture and fine lines.

Energy used: Focused ultrasound (HIFU) + radiofrequency (RF)

V-RO Lifting Key Points

SMAS + dermis simultaneous stimulation

It stimulates the skin from its deeper layers down to the dermis with combined energy, working on firming and lifting together.

Naturally refined facial contours

It defines the contours of the face without incisions, aiming for a natural-looking lifting rather than overdone changes.

Firming + skin texture + fine lines

By stimulating collagen regeneration, you may also notice smoother skin texture and improvement in fine lines.

V-RO Lifting is recommended for those who:

Facial sagging and loss of elasticity — for those concerned about facial sagging and loss of elasticity

Jawline & double-chin contouring — for those who want to refine the jawline, double chin, and overall facial contours

Lifting + Improving Skin Texture — for those who want lifting, firming, and improving skin texture at the same time

Less pain and downtime — for those who prefer procedures with less pain and downtime

STEP 01

Immediate effects

Feeling of pulling and lifting immediately after the procedure

STEP 02

Normal post-treatment reactions

Temporary redness or heat sensation

Immediately after the procedure, this may occur due to thermal irritation, but usually resolves within hours to days.

Mild swelling and pulling sensation

This is a natural reaction that may occur after the lifting stimulus and usually subsides within a few days.

Mild tenderness

Mild pain or tenderness when pressed may occur during the recovery process.

Most resolve spontaneously within hours to days.

Post-treatment precautions

Avoid alcohol, saunas, and strenuous exercise for 2-3 days after your procedure.
Make sure to keep up with sun protection and moisturizing.
Avoid strong massage or pressure on the treatment area.
Cold compresses are helpful for temporary heat or swelling.
Peeling, laser, and other irritating treatments should be spaced 1 week apart.
