Lifting: InMode

InMode is a multi-platform lifting and skin-tightening device from Israeli company InMode, utilizing radiofrequency (RF) and High Voltage Pulse (HVP) technology. Through its FX mode (fat cell apoptosis and tightening via negative pressure) and Forma mode (dermal collagen remodeling), it excels at reducing sagging and excess fat while improving skin texture.

FX mode combines radiofrequency energy with high-voltage electrical stimulation (HVP) to destroy unnecessary fat cells and contract sagging areas — primarily the double chin and deep cheeks. Forma mode delivers deep, uniform radiofrequency thermal energy to the dermis, stimulating collagen regeneration and improving skin texture and fine lines.

We typically recommend 3 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart. The number and interval of sessions can be adjusted through consultation with the doctor based on your individual skin thickness, fat volume, and degree of elasticity loss to achieve optimal results.

InMode FX produces a warm radiofrequency sensation along with a brief pulling or tingling feeling, but most patients tolerate it comfortably without anesthesia. Forma feels like a warm, pleasant massage with virtually no pain.

Yes. The most representative combination — "InMode Lifting" — pairs the fat-reducing FX mode with the elasticity-boosting Forma mode. Running both modes together maximizes the synergy between fat reduction and skin tightening.

Unlike surgical methods, InMode destroys unnecessary fat cells and tightens skin without incisions or significant scarring. Over 2–3 weeks following treatment, collagen gradually regenerates and fat cells are naturally eliminated, resulting in a natural, sculpted facial contour.

With FX mode, bruising (marks from negative pressure) may appear red or purple for approximately 1–2 weeks, but can be covered with makeup without significantly disrupting daily life. Forma has virtually no downtime, allowing a comfortable return to normal activities right after treatment.

Yes, it is a highly effective combination. While Ulthera vertically lifts the deep SMAS layer using high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), InMode uses radiofrequency (RF) to tighten the subcutaneous fat layer and dermis while addressing fine lines — creating excellent synergy between the two.

Yes. In my clinical experience, patients in their 20s to early 30s tend to see the most dramatic results. From the late 30s onward, when skin elasticity begins to decline, volume reduction from InMode can sometimes result in a slightly sagging appearance — so for patients in their late 30s and beyond, I tend to recommend treatments such as Ulthera or Thermage instead.

InMode is not a weight-loss device for whole-body obesity. It is a facial contouring device that reduces localized facial fat (such as a double chin or deep cheek fat) while improving skin elasticity. At ReYeonK, InMode is used on the face only; for body lines and firmness we recommend body ONDA lifting.

Thermage FLX uses monopolar RF to stimulate collagen in the dermis layer for skin tightening, while InMode delivers RF energy deeper into the subcutaneous fat layer to dissolve fat while simultaneously lifting the skin. InMode is recommended for those who want fat reduction alongside tightening; Thermage is better suited for pure lifting and elasticity.

InMode is a relatively gentle procedure. Mild swelling and redness may occur immediately after, but typically resolve within 1-3 days. Most patients can return to daily activities the same day.

Typically 1-3 InMode sessions are recommended depending on your skin condition and goals. Our doctors will design a personalized plan during your 1:1 consultation.

Yes — InMode reduces unwanted facial fat while tightening the skin, improving facial contours. It is particularly effective for cheeks, double chin, and the neck area. Ideal for those seeking both fat reduction and lifting in one treatment.
