How much is the Thermage eye tip at Dear Clinic?
₩2,200,000 (≈ $1,570) for the dedicated 450-shot eye tip. The face protocol is published separately at ₩1,900,000 (≈ $1,355) for a 600-shot tip. Both figures are quoted from the same sheet to Korean and international patients.
Why is the eye protocol priced separately from the face?
Because it is a different physical object. Each Thermage tip is sealed with its shot count inside it and cannot be part-used or carried over, so a session on the eye region means opening an eye tip. A face tip is not stretched across the lids, and the two lines are simply added when both regions are treated.
Will under-eye Thermage get rid of my eye bags?
Only if what you are calling a bag is lax skin. Where orbital fat is pushing forward, dermal heating does not move it and we will say so at the consultation. The capture is how the two are separated, and treating the wrong one is the usual reason people feel a treatment did nothing.
Does it help dark circles?
It depends what is making them dark. A shadow cast by a hollow is a volume question, and brown discolouration in the skin is pigment, which belongs to a different route. Where crepey, lax skin is scattering light and dulling the area, firming it can change how the region reads.
Can 450 shots cover both eyes?
Yes, that is what the tip is for: the periorbital region on both sides, including upper lid skin, the area under the lashes and the outer corner. How the shots are distributed across those zones is drawn from your capture and agreed in writing before the seal is broken.
Is the skin around the eye too thin for radiofrequency?
It is too thin for a face tip, which is precisely why a dedicated eye tip exists and why energy is tuned to the skin being read instead of run at a fixed level. Where skin is so depleted that little collagen remains to contract, we would tell you to expect a small change before you pay for the tip.
How long until I see anything?
Part of the effect is immediate contraction of existing collagen; the larger part is new collagen forming, which happens across months. So the review appointment is set well after the session, and judging the result in the first week tells you very little. Individual results vary.
How often would I repeat it?
Thermage is not a course treatment and the eye tip is not something to book on a schedule. When it is repeated, it is because a later capture shows the skin has loosened again, and that interval is different for every person. We would rather review you and say nothing is needed yet.
What does the eye protocol feel like?
People describe alternating cool and a brief deep heat with each placement, sharper over bone at the orbital rim than over soft tissue. The surface is cooled while the heat is deposited underneath. Any comfort measure for your session is discussed and confirmed at consultation.
Can I have the eye tip and the face tip on the same day?
Yes, and plenty of plans do exactly that, with each region getting its own tip and its own published line. The appointment is longer and the swelling the next morning is a little more noticeable. Whether it is the right order of work is part of what the consultation decides.
Is under-eye Thermage better than Ultherapy for this area?
They answer different findings. Radiofrequency heats the dermis broadly, so it suits crepey lid and under-eye skin; focused ultrasound places energy at set depths and suits an upper face that is descending. Both are published here, so the capture makes the choice instead of the stock list.
Can it be done on the day I come in?
Often, since the clinic opens 365 days a year and the capture, the consultation and the session can sit in one appointment. The tip is only unsealed once the map and the quote are agreed. If the reading raises a question worth thinking about, we will say so and reschedule.
