Face Contouring

Program V Sculpt — HIFU + Thread Contouring

A signature dual program — focused HIFU contouring plus PDO/PCL thread lift in one session.

What is Program V Sculpt?
Program V-Sculpt is a signature combination protocol at Waleerat Clinic for non-surgical V-line facial contouring. It layers two coordinated modalities in a single session: (1) focused HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) energy delivered to the SMAS layer to tighten the lower face and submental area, and (2) PDO/PCL absorbable threads placed along facial vectors to refine and lift the jawline. Patients see visible tightening on the same day, with continued collagen-stimulation results over 12 weeks.

About this treatment
In one paragraph

Program V Sculpt at Waleerat Clinic utilizes High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) combined with thread contouring to reshape the face. This treatment is designed for individuals seeking a non-surgical approach to a more defined V-line.

The HIFU targets the SMAS layer for facial tightening, while absorbable PDO/PCL threads lift and refine the face frame. Patients typically observe firmer skin and improved facial definition within 12 weeks.

The price starts from ฿18,000 in Bangkok. This program is FDA-approved for use in Thailand.

Duration is 60 minutes with mild redness and bruising expected for 2-5 days. Topical and local anesthesia is used.

Program V Sculpt is our signature combination protocol for patients who want a slimmer, more defined V-line without surgery.

Patients typically see firmer skin, a tighter jawline, and improved facial definition on the same day, with continued collagen-stimulation results over the following 12 weeks.

Preparation and aftercare for Program V Sculpt — HIFU + Thread Contouring

Research-informed guidance for this treatment type. Your doctor’s written plan after assessment always takes priority.

Before your appointment

  • A combination Program needs one doctor-led sequence that considers every product, device, treatment depth, medicine, implant and prior procedure.
  • Ask which part of the plan determines the strictest preparation and recovery rule.

After treatment

  • Follow the combined written plan rather than mixing instructions from separate internet pages.
  • Use the strictest relevant restriction until the clinic confirms that part of recovery is complete.
  • Use the clinic's 1:1 follow-up path for any uncertainty.

What may be expected

  • Expected recovery is the combined profile of the treatments performed and must be written after the actual session.

Contact us promptly

  • Use the most urgent warning signs from every treatment in the plan and contact the clinic when symptoms do not match the written timeline.

1:1 follow-up

Before you leave, the team records your treatment, expected recovery, follow-up timing and direct contact path. A doctor reviews concerns when needed.
