"I feel like the results don't last long, so I want to get it more often."
This is a common comment during follow-up consultations for Titanium Lifting.
However, shortening the interval and extending the duration of results are separate matters.
In fact, it can sometimes lead to an accumulation of burden.
Please take just one minute to read this.
Creating the Duration of Results
Changes created by a procedure go through two processes.
| Process | Description |
|---|---|
| Creation | The period after stimulation when new collagen is formed |
| Loss | The period when the newly formed collagen decreases according to the rate of aging |
The duration of results comes from the balance between these two.
If you shorten the interval, only the creation phases overlap, while the rate of loss remains the same.
Therefore, even if you increase the number of sessions, the duration of results does not increase proportionally.
Reasons for Individual Differences
These are the factors that determine the rate of loss.
- Age and underlying collagen status
- Range of weight changes
- UV exposure and smoking
- How much sagging has already progressed
- Which layers were addressed in previous procedures
The last item, in particular, is significant. If only the surface was mainly addressed, sagging in deeper layers will continue, making the duration of results feel shorter.
What is needed then is not more frequent sessions, but addressing different layers.
(※ Effects and reactions may vary depending on individual skin conditions, and the suitability of the procedure is determined through consultation with medical staff.)
When Shortening the Interval is Appropriate
There are situations where shortening the cycle is a valid decision.
- When the scope addressed in the previous procedure was limited
- When planning to address a different area this time
- When the progression of sagging is noticeably rapid
Conversely, if you are repeating the same area in the same way as last time, shortening the interval may yield little benefit.
How to Determine the Next Session
Keep photos from before the procedure and compare them at a certain point.
Check which areas have returned and to what extent, then decide whether to address those areas in the same layer as last time or move to a different layer.
This judgment, not the calendar, determines the cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does getting it more often extend the duration of results?
If you shorten the interval, only the creation phases overlap, while the rate of loss remains the same. The number of sessions and the duration of results are not proportional.
I feel the results don't last long, what should I do?
It may be better to check if the layer addressed in the previous procedure matched the current cause of sagging. What is needed may be a different layer, not more frequent sessions.
Are there cases where the cycle can be shortened?
Yes, if the previous scope was limited, if you plan to address a different area, or if the progression of sagging is noticeably rapid.
Why does the duration of results vary from person to person?
Age, weight changes, UV exposure, existing degree of sagging, and the layers addressed in previous procedures can all have an impact.
Can post-procedure care extend the duration of results?
Sun protection and managing drastic weight changes may be helpful.
Recovery and Downtime: Progress of Radiofrequency Procedures
You may experience warmth and redness on the day of the procedure, which generally subsides within one or two days.
It is advisable to avoid saunas and strong massages for a few days.
Changes in elasticity appear over several weeks thereafter.
How Costs are Structured
Costs are not determined by shot count alone.
They vary depending on the area scope, tip combination, use of genuine products and appropriate quantities, and whether diagnosis and post-care are included.
For accurate costs, it is more precise to provide guidance after a consultation that confirms your past progress and current condition.
