## 🏛️ Clinic Consultation & Treatment Plan
The clinic consultant recommended combining **Ultherapy Prime** (she mentioned this new version is less painful) with **ONDA Lift** for my jawline. She noted that my apple cheeks are quite full, which gives my face a more rounded appearance. To optimize my facial profile, she suggested adding **chin filler** after the lifting treatments to elongate the chin and create a smoother, more streamlined facial line. She also mentioned that for individuals with fuller faces, combining Ultherapy with ONDA is highly recommended.

## ⏱️ Timeline & Clinic Experience (10:00 AM – 1:00 PM)
The Chinese service counter is located on the 4th floor. The entire process took exactly 3 hours:
* Skin Analysis ➔ Consultation ➔ ONDA Treatment (10 mins) ➔ Full-face Numbing Cream (10 mins) ➔ Ultherapy Prime ➔ Local Anesthesia Injection + Chin Filler & Botox (3–5 mins) ➔ Skincare & Sunscreen Application ➔ Pharmacy Visit (orange-and-white storefront across the alley) to pick up an 11-day prescription of oral medication.
### 💁♂️ Staffing & Service
On that day, a single Chinese-speaking translator managed the entire floor (he mentioned one colleague was off and another was on their very first day). He accompanied us throughout the consultation and escorted us to a private lounge. While he wasn't there every single second, he was present to explain things during the ONDA and filler injections. The overall execution was smooth and efficient. He was a soft-spoken, gentle Chinese guy who provided great service.
## 🧴 Post-Treatment Care & Current Recovery (Day 3)
The post-op restrictions for the chin filler are quite strict. For the next **one month**, I must follow these rules:
* Avoid extreme facial expressions or laughing out loud.
* Sleep strictly on my back (supine position).
* Apply sunscreen diligently before going out.
* Wash the face with very gentle motions; do not rest your face on your hands or touch the chin unnecessarily.
* Maintain intense skin hydration. *(I asked Gemini for a safe skincare list, which I’ve attached in the photos. For cleansing, I use Hada Labo Goku-jyun, and for sun protection, I purchased La Roche-Posay Anthelios Invisible Fluid).*
### 💬 Current Status
Today is **Day 3 post-treatment**. My skin currently feels a bit itchy and I have the urge to scratch it, and my chin feels quite firm/hard to the touch. Fortunately, there are no visible wounds or open sores. To play it safe, I have already canceled my upcoming river tracing trip and dental appointments for the next month.
