Titanium Lift uses Alma’s Soprano Titanium to deliver three laser wavelengths (755, 810 and 1064 nm) to the skin and underlying tissue at once. Discomfort is usually low enough to treat without topical anesthesia. A session takes under 30 minutes, with little downtime and changes you can see right away.
An option for refining your facial contours before an event, with minimal discomfort and downtime.

B.T.S
in one treatment
Titanium Lift uses three diode laser wavelengths (755, 810 and 1064 nm) to deliver energy to the skin and underlying tissue simultaneously. Its effects are described as B.T.S.: brightening, tightening and slimming.
Sapphire cooling protects the epidermis, so treatment generally feels warm. It can treat the full face and neck, and you can return to your daily activities right away.
STACK mode delivers laser heat to deeper fat and retaining-ligament layers, refining sagging contours and the under-chin area.
Three wavelengths reach different depths at the same time, distributing heat through the skin to improve firmness and lines on the face and neck.
SHR mode heats the dermis evenly, contracting collagen to give the skin an immediate feeling of tightness.
Alongside tightening, SHR mode’s dermal heating brightens dull, uneven skin tone.
Laser heat stimulates collagen and improves skin density, smoothing texture and making pores look less noticeable.
Collagen renewal continues over time, improving firmness throughout the treated skin.
Results depend on treatment planning and technique. At Dong-An Joongsim Clinic, a doctor conducts your consultation and performs the procedure, with time to address your individual concerns.

My makeup sits better now
I tried Titanium Lift hoping for a more defined facial outline. During treatment, I mostly felt warmth. When I looked in the mirror afterward, my contours seemed a little different. Later, my pores also seemed less noticeable and my makeup went on more smoothly.
I chose Titanium for my first lifting treatment
It was my first lifting treatment, so I started with Titanium. Even with anesthesia, it became quite painful toward the end. I could see a change afterward, but it didn’t last as long as I had expected. Based on my experience, the discomfort and duration are worth considering together.
My profile looks a little smoother
I was bothered by uneven contours in profile. I’d tried other lifting treatments without seeing much difference. After Titanium, my profile looked just a little smoother. It wasn’t a dramatic change, but I noticed small differences. That’s how it feels to me.
I discussed my hollow cheeks before treatment
I already had some hollowing in my cheeks, so I brought it up before Titanium. Right afterward, it actually seemed more noticeable. My face may have looked slightly neater, but I couldn’t see a big difference. Some of the result wasn’t what I’d expected.
At a users’ meeting attended by Titanium developer Itay Meir, Dr. Cho chaired the panel discussion on practical use and clinical cases.
How can a laser provide lifting? Two modes deliver energy at different depths.
One applicator delivers three wavelengths simultaneously, reaching different tissue depths.
Sapphire contact cooling reaches −3°C to help reduce discomfort and irritation.
STACK mode heats the fat and retaining-ligament layers to help lift facial contours.
SHR mode heats the dermis evenly for immediate tightening and brightening.
The device has two modes; your doctor decides where to use each. Dr. Cho, who has led clinical case discussions at Alma Korea’s users’ meeting, distinguishes thicker from thinner areas. Deeper STACK treatment addresses the cheeks and under-chin area, while SHR is used for the forehead and neck lines.
SHR mode heats the dermis to improve firmness and skin tone.
STACK mode delivers energy to the fat and retaining-ligament layers to refine facial contours and the under-chin area.
Layer thicknesses are simplified for illustration. Actual depths vary with the treatment area and skin thickness.
Our approach
In his December 2024 D&PS column, Dr. Cho discussed the development of treatments such as Titanium, ONDA and EMFACE that allow patients to return to their routine right away.

The doctors at Dong-An Joongsim Clinic
Skin tightening devices work at different depths. The choice should reflect the layer where sagging begins.
The doctors at Dong-An Joongsim Clinic
Cheek hollowing after tightening treatment can occur when too much heat reaches an area with little fat, or when existing volume loss becomes more visible.
The doctors at Dong-An Joongsim ClinicResults depend on planning and technique. Check who handles the consultation and procedure, whether authentic devices and supplies are used, and whether treatments can be combined to suit your face. Dong-An Joongsim Clinic is an Alma Elite Award recipient. A doctor conducts both your consultation and your treatment, with time for your individual concerns.
One applicator delivers 755, 810 and 1064 nm laser wavelengths simultaneously. STACK mode targets deeper fat and retaining-ligament layers, around 6–8 mm, for lifting and contouring. SHR heats the dermis, around 3–4 mm, for tightening and brightening. Sapphire cooling protects the surface.
You may notice changes in firmness and facial contours immediately. With repeated sessions, skin tone, texture and the appearance of pores can also improve.
Duration varies with age and skin condition. We usually recommend three sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart, with your doctor adjusting the plan to your skin.
Discomfort is usually low enough that topical anesthesia is unnecessary. Many patients describe a warm sensation, though individual experiences vary. Without the wait for anesthesia, treatment takes under 30 minutes.
You can generally return to your plans immediately. Mild redness may occur but usually settles quickly. Avoid saunas, steam rooms and deep facial massage for about 3–4 days, and use sunscreen and moisturizer.
Tell your doctor beforehand if you have little cheek fat or are concerned about hollowing. Your doctor assesses facial fat and skin thickness, then chooses deeper STACK or dermal SHR treatment separately for each area.
Cost depends on the area (such as the full face or neck), the combination of modes and the number of sessions. Your doctor examines your skin, develops a plan and explains the cost during consultation.
Some patients describe good results and appreciate the clinic’s range of devices. Others discuss having Titanium Lift together with ONDA.
Yes. Titanium Lift and ONDA appeared in STORY’s January 2026 feature on Korean beauty travel, in its introduction to Dong-An Joongsim Clinic.
