Borneuma Frequently Asked Questions

Volnuma is a treatment that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy applied to the skin to address sagging and loss of firmness. At YAYOI CLINIC, we use 6.78 MHz radiofrequency to help tighten the skin and restore its firmness.

Borneuma is ideal for those concerned about sagging in the cheeks and around the mouth, nasolabial folds, fine lines, and sagging around the eyes. Since the most appropriate treatment varies depending on the degree of sagging, a doctor will assess your skin condition and recommend the best course of treatment.

The key difference is that Volnuma targets the entire subcutaneous tissue from the dermis, while HIFU primarily targets the subcutaneous tissue up to the SMAS layer. Volnuma uses radiofrequency (RF), while HIFU uses high-intensity focused ultrasound; each employs a different mechanism to achieve skin tightening.

Although Bolneuma is a treatment that produces a sensation of heat due to high-frequency waves, it is designed to minimize discomfort through features such as vibration and cooling. At YAYOI CLINIC, we minimize discomfort by combining the device’s built-in features with our own unique application method.

It is generally recommended to undergo a Volnuma treatment about once every 4 to 6 months. Since the perceived effects and duration of results vary from person to person, we will discuss the optimal timing for your treatment based on your skin condition and the degree of sagging.

With Volnuma, dryness, redness, swelling, bruising, or burns may occur after treatment. Since the severity of these symptoms varies from person to person, please consult a doctor if any concerning symptoms persist.

We determine whether Volnuma is suitable for you by assessing factors such as the amount of facial fat and the degree of sagging. At YAYOI CLINIC, we select the appropriate device based on the degree of sagging, so even if you are concerned about having a thin face, please consult with a doctor in advance.
