procedure is.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Density is a non-invasive medical device that delivers radio frequency (RF) to the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the manufacturer, Density <strong>Using 6.78 MHz monopolar and bipolar radiofrequency<\/strong>and monopolar is designed to deliver energy to relatively deep layers, while bipolar delivers energy to shallower layers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, it checks the skin's impedance, which is its electrical resistance, to adjust the energy output. <strong>impedance feedback system<\/strong>and to protect the skin surface <strong>5-stage gas cooling system, real-time skin temperature monitoring<\/strong> It has the feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So rather than understanding Density simply as \u201ca procedure that shoots strong high-frequency waves,\u201d, <strong>An RF treatment that controls how and to which area of the skin heat is delivered through tips and energy settings.<\/strong>It is correct to view it as.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then how do high-tip and alpha-tip differ here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-dominant-color=\"ebdfd9\"

that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, it doesn't work on completely different principles, like \u201chigh-tips work on deep layers and alpha-tips work on shallow layers.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JC Medical's official materials describe the High-Tip as a tip that sequentially delivers monopolar and bipolar RF, and the Alpha-Tip is a tip developed after the High-Tip, <strong>A follow-up tip designed to deliver energy wider and deeper by applying a larger electrode<\/strong>explained with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

In particular, since the high-tip is divided into tip shapes depending on the application area, such as F, E, and B, you should not just think about the entire face, but <strong>Which tip to use on which area<\/strong>is also important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, it is difficult to approach the loss of elasticity across the entire face in the same way as treating a narrow and delicate area like the eye contour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So rather than just asking \u201cIs it Alpha Tip or High Tip?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>what my skin thickness is, what the degree of sagging is, and which areas to focus on<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Checking this together is more meaningful in actual counseling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Alpha Tip stronger than High Tip?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This question is also asked very often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To be precise <strong>\u201cIt is difficult to conclude that \u201dAlpha tip = unconditionally stronger tip than high tip.\".<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The core change in AlphaTip is that as the electrode structure becomes larger <strong>Designed to deliver energy over a wider area at once<\/strong>is available. JCIS Medical also introduces the Alpha Tip not simply as a high-power version of the High Tip, but as a tip developed to deliver energy wider and deeper by applying a larger electrode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, even with the same density<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Power \u00d7 Number of shots \u00d7 Tip type \u00d7 Treatment area \u00d7 Skin condition<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">need to look at separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cRather than \u201dI'm getting it harder because it's an alpha tip\"<br><strong>\u201cWhat range and under what conditions is investigated when using an Alpha tip?\u201d<\/strong>It is much more accurate to check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Then, are Alpha Tips only necessary for people with large faces?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It cannot be divided that simply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is clear that the electrode area of the Alpha Tip has increased, but in actual procedures, the tip is not determined based solely on the size of the face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is because skin thickness, fat volume, degree of sagging, target areas, and desired changes must all be considered together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, the treatment plan for someone concerned about a loss of elasticity across their entire face can differ from the plan for someone who needs fine adjustments to their jawline or a specific area, even if they undergo the same lifting procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Especially if you don't have much fat on your face <strong>\u201cShooting widely and a lot\u201d itself should not be the goal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What consumers should actually check when getting a lifting procedure<br>\u201cRather than \u201dHow many shots did you get?\" <strong>How and to which area was the energy delivered?<\/strong>is closer to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img data-dominant-color=\"cab3a4\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/vivtone.kr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/td01400001377-1-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12994 not-transparent\" style=\"--dominant-color: #cab3a4;
