Vollnuerma, which has been attracting attention as a pain-free radiofrequency device, is said to be effective in improving sagging around the eyes, which tend to make people look older than their age. In this issue, we explain how Vollnuma works and how it differs from other eye area care treatments. If you have problems around your eyes, please read on.
What is Volnuma? Advanced cosmetic medical technology for eye area care
VOLNEWMER" is a treatment device using radiofrequency (RF) developed by CLASSYS, a company based in Seoul, Korea. Let us first review the basics of how VOLNEWMER works.
■Volnuma Mechanism and Principle of Action
Volnuma is a treatment device that utilizes a technology called RF (radio frequency) or radiofrequency. By irradiating the skin with high frequency electromagnetic waves, the molecules in the body vibrate and heat is generated. This heat acts on collagen and fat,Thermal contraction occurs in the dermis and fat layer, resulting in tightening effect and skin hariap。
Differences between ■Volnuma and conventional radiofrequency therapy
In addition to Volnuma, there are various other types of treatment devices that utilize radiofrequency waves, depending on the frequency and irradiation method. The devices used in the past, although effective, had the disadvantage that it was difficult to adjust the energy and the energy was released not only to the dermal layer but also to the epidermal layer, causing heat and pain. On the other hand, because of its unique cooling and vibration functions, Volnuma is significantly more effective than conventional devices.Difficult to feel painIt is said to be a good idea. Basically, downtime is also minimal, so there is no need to worry about being noticed by others.
Why is ■Volnuma suitable for the eye area?

Since VORNEUMA is equipped with four tips of different sizes, you can select the tip that best suits the area to be treated, from large areas such as the cheeks, face line, and neck to small areas such as the eye and mouth area. The skin around the eyes is thin and delicate, where nerves are concentrated, but with a dedicated tip, theEffective irradiation of sagging around the eyesThe tip is rounded. Furthermore, the tip tip is rounded so that it can adhere even to uneven skin, allowing for even application of high-frequency waves.
Causes of sagging eyes and effects of treatment with Volnuma
Now that we have reviewed the basics about Volnuma, why do the eyes sag in the first place? Let's learn more about the causes of sagging and how Vollnuma is effective.
■Causes of sagging and puffiness around the eyes
The following are possible reasons why sagging and puffiness around the eyes may be noticeable.
- Decreased skin elasticity due to aging
- Weakening of muscles (orbicularis oculus)
- Decreased blinking
- High orbital fat
As we age, collagen and elastin, which produce skin firmness and elasticity, decrease, and muscle strength around the eyes deteriorates, leading to sagging around the eyes. Prolonged use of computers and smartphones is another cause. Prolonged viewing of electronic device screens reduces the number of times we blink, causing the orbicularis oculus muscle to deteriorate.
In addition, a large amount of orbital fat, which protects the eyeballs, tends to cause puffiness under the eyes, making them look older and saggy.
■Effects of Volnuma eye area treatment
Treatment with Volnuma is an effective way to improve sagging around the eyes caused by the previously mentioned causes. By using a tip specially designed for the eye area and applying it close to the eyes, even the delicate details around the eyes can be treated. By stimulating the production of collagen and elastin and tightening the skin, sagging around the eyes as well asExpected to improve fine lines and wrinklesIn addition, the tightening effect on the eye area may make it easier to open the eyes. The tightening effect around the eyes may also make it easier to open the eyes.
Comparison of Volnuma with other eye care treatments
Although Volnuma is a treatment that can be used to improve sagging and fine lines around the eyes, other cosmetic approaches to eye area sagging may also be considered. Here is how it differs from other eye area care treatments.
■Differences between Volnuma and hyaluronic acid injections

In addition to Volnuma, hyaluronic acid injections are another way to improve sagging around the eyes. Hyaluronic acid is injected into the sagging or puffy areas under the eyes to reduce the appearance of the areas of concern. Because Volnuma is a treatment method that improves symptoms while stimulating collagen production, the effect is generally visible around one month after the procedure. On the other hand, immediate changes can be expected with hyaluronic acid injections.
Volnuma and hyaluronic acid can be used together, though,Hyaluronic acid injections into the eye area are more difficult to perform than in other areas because of differences in technique.It is said that Depending on the skill of the clinic and the doctor, sagging may worsen. Therefore, when considering hyaluronic acid injections into the eye area, one must choose a clinic carefully. Yayoi Clinic (YAYOI CLINIC) in Hiroshima offers not only Volnuma but also hyaluronic acid injections.
Difference between volnuma and hyph.

The HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a treatment device that uses ultrasound to treat sagging skin around the eyes. The HIF delivers heat to the SMAS fascia, which is the foundation of the skin, with pinpoint accuracy. In the process of healing wounds, the stimulated tissue stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which give skin elasticity, and lifts the skin from its foundation.
On the other hand, Volnuma is a treatment method that uses radiofrequency (RF) to transmit heat throughout the dermis to subcutaneous tissue. VolnuMa also approaches sagging, but its thermal denaturation is gentler than that of Hyf. It approaches sagging slowly while stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin.
Because of their different approaches, it is easy to wonder, "Which is better, volnuma or hyphen?" It is easy to get lost in the confusion,Higher effectiveness can be expected by combiningThe two are different in their mechanisms. By using both Volnuma and HIF, which have different mechanisms, it is possible to work on the entire skin, from the shallowest to the deepest layers.
■ Differences between Volnuma and high-frequency home care products
In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of products that can be used for home care, such as facial machines that use high-frequency waves in the same way as Volnuma. Home-use high-frequency facial devices also encourage the production of collagen and elastin by irradiating high-frequency waves, thereby approaching wrinkles and sagging skin. However, since most home-use facial devices are developed on the assumption that they can be used safely by anyone, their maximum output is low, and they do not provide the same high effects as the volumetric treatments used in aesthetic medicine.
Resolve common questions about volnuma
Finally, let's address some common questions.
What are the disadvantages of ■volnuma?
The following are some of the disadvantages of volnuma
- Takes time to become effective.
- In some cases, pain and fever are felt.
- Risk of side effects such as redness and swelling.
Compared to hyaluronic acid injections, which have an immediate effect, it takes longer to feel the effects of VORNEUMA, so people may ask, "When will I start feeling the effects? Will it be ineffective? You may feel anxious about this. In addition, even though the pain and heat sensation are considered, the way you feel them varies from person to person. Some people may experience side effects, so it is wise to check what symptoms you may experience before undergoing the procedure.
How much does a ■volnuma cost?
In the case of the Yayoi Clinic in Hiroshima, a partial volnuma is applied.Light Course is 55,000 yen including taxThe price will be changed. It is possible to receive other menus such as Super Hypef, hyaluronic acid injections, Botox, etc. as options, but the price will change in that case.
