Treatment Overview
Venus Legacy is a multi-polar radiofrequency (RF) and pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) system with integrated suction (VariPulse™) technology. It works by heating the dermis and subcutaneous tissues to stimulate collagen remodeling, improve circulation, and reduce localized fat or puffiness.
In Korean dermatology clinics, Venus Legacy is often combined with Ultherapy. Ultherapy lifts and tightens the SMAS layer with ultrasound, while Venus Legacy works in the dermis and subcutaneous tissues, smoothing wrinkles, firming skin, and enhancing overall skin quality.
Purpose & Benefits
- Skin Tightening: Stimulates collagen for firmer, more elastic skin.
- Wrinkle Reduction: Softens fine lines and improves dermal texture.
- Contour Enhancement: Refines jawline, reduces puffiness, and smooths mild jowls.
- Cellulite & Body Firming: Improves dimpled or lax skin on body areas.
- Circulation Boost: Enhances oxygenation and lymphatic drainage.
- Combination with Ultherapy: Deep lift (Ultherapy) + surface firming and fat reduction (Venus Legacy).
