GLX Lifting


GLX Lifting uses the GentleMax® Pro Plus's GLX Delivery System and DCD Cooling 1064nm laser treatmentIt delivers heat to the skin and induces collagen regeneration while protecting the skin surface with cooling.

The difference from existing high-frequency-based heat transfer methods is that the tip does not touch the skin. non-contact methodThe key feature is that heating and cooling are performed simultaneously using an in-laser.

The treatment uses different irradiation methods depending on the depth. Two stepsThe process proceeds as follows. First, it smooths the sagging and contours of the lower face, and then delivers heat to the entire face and neck to improve skin texture and elasticity.

Why GLX Lifting

If you haven't seen results with other lifting procedures
You can try changing the method of applying heat.

GLX Lifting uses the same 1064nm laser
It delivers different heat to each of the two layers.

Point 01

The 1064nm wavelength is
It reaches deep into the skin.

1064nm is a wavelength that is not easily absorbed by skin pigments or moisture. It uses less energy on the surface of the skin and penetrates into the dermis and below. Therefore, it can generate heat from the inside while leaving the outer layer undamaged.

  • 1064nm Nd:YAG — Wavelength that penetrates deeper due to less absorption at the surface
  • GLX-2 Surface Heating — Upper to lower dermis, 0.1-1.5mm
  • GLX-1 Core Heating — Subdermis to fat layer, 1.5-3.0mm
1064nm epidermis dermis fat layer SMAS GLX-2 Upper to lower dermis 0.1-1.5mm GLX-1 Lower dermis to subcutaneous fat layer 1.5-3.0mm The deeper the wavelength penetrates, the lower the heat is generated.
GLX-1 Push in Up to the lower dermis and the fat layer Stamping that overlaps each digit GLX-2 Raise the heat and send Widely in the upper and lower dermis fast-moving painting

Point 02

From deep layers to shallow layers,
We will proceed in two steps.

Even the same 1064nm laser varies depending on the irradiation time and spot size The way the heat enters changes. GLX Lifting adjusts this setting to treatment the deep layers first, and then The treatment is performed by continuing the shallow layers.

  • GLX-1

    Deep layer, push in

    The step of applying heat to the lower dermis and fat layer by overlapping each spot one by one.

  • GLX-2

    Shallow layer, send up

    A step that passes quickly at short intervals to evenly fill the upper and lower dermis.

Point 03

While cooling the surface
It retains heat only on the inside.

It cools the skin surface as the laser passes by. It lowers the temperature of the epidermis and leaves the heat of the dermis unchanged. Therefore, the outside is less burdensome, and heat can be collected on the inside. Since anesthesia is not used, the energy is adjusted based on the heat sensation felt during the treatment .

  • non-contact method where the tip does not touch the skin
  • Lowering epidermal temperature by using laser and cooling together
  • Energy regulation for each area based on thermal response
Laser + Surface Cooling epidermis dermis fat layer Section with lowered temperature The section where heat is maintained The epidermis cools, and heat is retained in the dermis.

GLX 2 Step

Even with the same wavelength
The work performed varies depending on the depth.

GLX Lifting has different depths of heat generation and directions of spreading.
Proceed with the two steps in order.

Deep layer, stamping technique

GLX-1 Core Heating

Core Heating

  • Subdermis and fat layerThe step of pushing heat up to
  • Taking photos of each spot overlapping with a wide spot
  • Refine the heavy-looking lower face and neckline
  • I feel a warm sensation

Shallow layer, painting technique

GLX-2 surface heating

Superficial Heating

  • Upper and lower dermisStep of evenly raising and distributing heat
  • Passing by quickly overlapping as small spots
  • Refines skin texture, fine lines, and overall elasticity
  • A warm, spreading sensation of heat continues.

How It Works

GLX Lifting Mechanism of Action

1

A 1064nm laser passes over the surface
Reach the dermis and below.

1064nm Reach without damaging the surface
2

The surface is protected by cooling and
Heat gathers on the inside

Heat accumulates in the dermis The epidermis lowers the temperature through cooling.
3

Collagen contracts and
It was newly created over the next few weeks.

sagging collagen Contraction and regeneration

Treatment Areas

GLX Lifting treatment Areas

The treatment area is both cheeks and the neck.
The depth and amount of heat delivered vary depending on the area.

GLX Lifting treatment Range
Both cheeks
The entire neck

We do not treatment on the area under the cheekbone where hollowing has occurred.
Applying strong heat to this area can make the cheeks appear sunken, potentially resulting in a peanut-shaped face. If you wish to adjust the overall volume of your face, we will re-determine the scope during the consultation.

Recommended For

I recommend this to people like this.

The lower face and neckline
Someone who looks heavy

Sagging and volume
Someone who is also concerned

Needle treatment and anesthesia
For those who feel burdened

Without a recovery period
For those who want to maintain their daily routine

Treatment Stories written personally by the Director

This is a text written directly by the Director who actually performs this treatment , detailing the principles and standards.

Not only the results, but even the difference in experience

The Episode Difference

Why It's Different

Every process has its own reason for the EPISODE.

01

Starting with the cause of sagging
I will check.

Pre- treatment facial analysis

There is a difference between skin that looks sagging due to looseness and skin that looks heavy due to fat.
During the consultation, the proportion of GLX-1 and GLX-2 is first determined based on skin thickness, amount of fat, and the degree of cheek hollowing.

ANALYSIS

02

In the EPISODE Lifting Design Guide
We will proceed accordingly.

EPISODE Lifting Design Guide

Dividing the mid and lower facial areas into 11 zones, the areas prone to sinking and sagging Perform the treatment while referring to the indicated EPISODE lifting design guide. The red boxes are the sinking areas, and the blue boxes are the sagging areas.

Without anesthesia
We will proceed while observing the response.

Check for reactions during the treatment

GLX Lifting does not require anesthesia before the treatment . The degree to which one feels heat varies from person to person, and The sensation of heat just before it gets hot is also a sign that energy is being transferred well. EPISODE adjusts energy for each area while monitoring the response during the treatment .

Notice

Instructions for treatment

  • 1

    GLX Lifting does not use anesthetic cream or injections prior to the treatment . This is to allow for energy adjustment based on the heat sensation felt during the treatment . If you feel any discomfort, please do not endure it and let us know.

  • 2

    Please inform us before the treatment if you have recently tanned, been exposed to UV rays for a long time, or if your skin has become sensitive. We will adjust the timing of the treatment .

  • 3

    We do not treatment on the area under the cheekbones where hollowing has occurred. If you wish to restore overall facial volume, we will re-determine the scope during the consultation.

  • 4

    You may experience facial redness and a slight warmth immediately after the treatment , but these usually subside within a few hours. You can wash your face and apply basic makeup on the same day.

  • 5

    Please avoid saunas, steam rooms, hot baths, alcohol, and strenuous exercise on the day of the treatment . Redness and swelling may persist for a long time.

  • 6

    Your skin may become dry for a few days after the treatment . Please pay attention to moisturizing and sun protection.

  • 7

    Since it takes time for new collagen to be produced, changes become apparent over time after the treatment . Typically, the initial treatment is repeated three times at one-month intervals, but the timing and extent of changes vary from person to person.
