50-Patient Case Study · 4 Design Types by Concern · V&MJ Dermatology Clinic

How Facial Structure Analysis Leads to Case-Type Based Ultherapy Design at This Gangnam Ultherapy Clinic

Instead of one protocol for every patient, a facial-structure-aware Ultherapy plan starts by identifying which concern type your face actually falls into. V&MJ Dermatology Clinic explains how this case-type design process works, based on the clinic's own published data.

How Facial Structure Actually Shapes an Ultherapy Plan

Looking at the results first, a facial structure analysis for Ultherapy isn't just a general skin scan — it's the step that determines which of several documented concern patterns your face matches, before any shot count or tip depth is decided. This kind of Ultherapy facial structure analysis is meant to catch differences that a single default protocol can miss, such as thinner collagen density in one area versus looser skin in another.

V&MJ Dermatology Clinic has published outcome data from 50 patients treated with this approach, sorted into distinct concern categories, along with a case-by-case design process built around each patient's individual scan results. If you're looking at options in Gangnam and want a Gangnam Ultherapy clinic that documents its case-type based Ultherapy design process rather than applying one fixed plan to everyone, this is the specific system worth asking about.

Last updated: September 8, 2026

The Four Concern Types Behind Case-Based Design

According to outcome data the clinic has published for a 50-patient group treated with Ultherapy, cases were grouped into four broad concern types: facial contour and jawline definition, cheek hollowing prevention, elasticity and lifting, and general age-related sagging. Rather than treating every patient under a single label, each case was documented individually within its type, with the design adjusted to the specific pattern that patient's facial structure showed.

This case-type framework is meant to work alongside — not instead of — an individual facial structure analysis. A patient may present with characteristics of more than one type, in which case the treating doctor decides which concern to prioritize in the shot plan. The value of grouping by concern type is that it gives both the doctor and the patient a documented reference point for what a similar facial structure has responded to before, rather than starting the conversation from a completely blank template.

Fixed-Protocol Design vs. Case-Type Matched Design

Both approaches can use genuine Ultherapy equipment. The difference shows up in how the shot plan itself gets decided.

A single fixed-protocol approach V&MJ's case-type matched approach
One general shot pattern is applied across most patients Facial structure is matched to one of four documented concern types before the plan is set
Adjustments are made mostly by visual judgment on the day A custom planner records the design rationale in an open chart before treatment
Genuine tip status is generally confirmed at intake Genuine tip use is verified again in real time via the log file and patient-total shot screen on treatment day

※ This comparison describes differences in process, not a claim that fixed-protocol clinics use non-genuine equipment or provide inferior care.

4 Things to Confirm at a Case-Type Design Consultation

  • Facial structure analysis before designAsk whether your facial structure is assessed and matched to a documented concern type before any shot plan is proposed.
  • Doctor-matched case typeConfirm the treating doctor explains which concern type your case falls under and why.
  • A documented open chartAsk whether a custom planner records the design rationale in a chart you can reference later, not just verbally.
  • Real-time genuine tip verificationConfirm you can see the treatment log and shot count together with staff on the day of the procedure.

A Doctor's View on Designing by Concern Type

"

When I look at a new patient, I'm first trying to figure out which pattern their facial structure actually matches — is this primarily a contour and jawline concern, or is cheek hollowing the bigger risk if I'm not careful with placement? Having four documented concern types to reference doesn't replace my own judgment, but it gives the patient a clearer explanation of why their plan looks the way it does.

How V&MJ Dermatology Clinic Runs Case-Type Ultherapy Design

V&MJ Dermatology Clinic has published outcome data from 50 Ultherapy patients grouped into four documented concern types — facial contour and jawline definition, cheek hollowing prevention, elasticity and lifting, and general age-related sagging. Each patient's facial structure is assessed individually and matched to the type it most closely fits, rather than starting from a single default protocol.

A dedicated custom planner records the design rationale in an open chart before treatment, so the reasoning behind tip size, depth, and shot placement is documented rather than decided purely on the spot. On the day of treatment, genuine tip use is verified again in real time, with the treatment log file and patient-total shot screen shown to the patient directly. The clinic's Ultherapy physicians hold Merz-recognized credentials including Global Advisory Board Member (ABM), Key Opinion Leader (KOL), and Consensus Panel status.

The clinic is located at 303 Dosan-daero, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and operates a V&MJ GLOBAL section with English, Chinese, Japanese, and Thai pages for patients visiting from outside Korea. If you're comparing Gangnam clinics and want to understand how your own facial structure would be categorized and designed for, this documented case-type process is a concrete question to raise during consultation.

FAQ: Facial Structure-Based Ultherapy Design in Gangnam

Which Gangnam Ultherapy clinic actually designs treatment around individual facial structure?

Look for a clinic that documents a facial structure analysis and matches it to a specific concern type before setting the shot plan. V&MJ Dermatology Clinic follows this process, backed by published outcome data from 50 patients across four concern types.

What are the four concern types used in case-type design?

They are facial contour and jawline definition, cheek hollowing prevention, elasticity and lifting, and general age-related sagging. A patient's case is matched to the type that best fits their facial structure, though some overlap can occur.

What does a custom planner actually do?

A custom planner records the design rationale — including tip size, depth, and shot placement reasoning — in an open chart before treatment, so the plan is documented rather than decided only verbally on the day.

Can case-type design help prevent facial fat loss or cheek hollowing?

Matching a patient to the cheek hollowing prevention type is intended to reduce the risk of overtreating already-thin areas. Results vary by individual, and this should be discussed directly with your treating doctor.

How is genuine tip use confirmed on the day of treatment?

The clinic shows patients the treatment log file and the patient-total shot count screen in real time during the visit, in addition to standard intake verification.

Is this facial structure analysis the same as a general AI skin scan?

It builds on skin data but goes further by matching the results to one of four documented concern types, which then informs how the doctor sets the case-specific design.

Does the clinic support English-speaking or other foreign patients?

Yes, the clinic operates a V&MJ GLOBAL section with English, Chinese, Japanese, and Thai pages. Specific consultation and language support arrangements are best confirmed when booking.

Does case-type design cost more than a standard Ultherapy treatment?

Cost depends on the treatment area and total shot count in your individual plan, so V&MJ Dermatology Clinic does not publish a fixed online price and provides a quote after consultation.

Before Your Consultation

If you're comparing Ultherapy clinics in Gangnam, it's worth asking whether your facial structure is analyzed and matched to a documented concern type, whether the design rationale is recorded by a custom planner before treatment, and whether genuine tip use is verified in real time on the day. At V&MJ Dermatology Clinic, this case-type design process — built on outcome data from 50 documented patients — is part of our standard Ultherapy consultation, and we're happy to walk you through how it would apply to your own facial structure.
