What Is InMode FX?
InMode FX is a fractional bipolar radiofrequency (RF) device that delivers controlled thermal energy to the superficial dermis for skin tightening, pore refinement, collagen stimulation, and texture improvement. At RE:BERRY Incheon Airport, InMode FX is available from ₩99,000 per session (regular ₩187,000) as part of the April 2026 Spring Lifting Promotion. It is commonly used as a standalone entry-level tightening treatment or as an add-on to deeper devices like Thermage FLX, Ultherapy Prime, or Sofwave for comprehensive multi-layer skin rejuvenation. All prices exclude VAT (10%).
InMode FX occupies a unique position in the non-surgical skin tightening landscape. While devices like Thermage FLX target the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue with monopolar RF, and Ultherapy Prime targets the SMAS fascial layer with micro-focused ultrasound, InMode FX addresses the superficial dermis — the outermost collagen-containing layer that determines skin texture, pore appearance, and surface tightness. The InMode platform uses fractional bipolar RF technology with built-in temperature monitoring to heat the superficial dermis to the optimal collagen-stimulating temperature range (42-55 degrees Celsius) while protecting the epidermis. This temperature range is sufficient to stimulate fibroblast activity and new collagen production without causing the intense heating required for deep dermal remodeling. The result is progressive improvement in skin texture, reduced pore size, and mild surface tightening over 2-4 weeks post-treatment. At RE:BERRY Incheon Airport, Head Director Dr. Cho Sung-Jun frequently prescribes InMode FX in three clinical contexts. First, as a standalone treatment for patients with early skin laxity (typically age 25-35) who want preventive tightening and pore refinement — at ₩99,000, it is exceptionally cost-effective. Second, as the superficial layer component of multi-device protocols: InMode FX (superficial) + Sofwave (mid-dermis, ₩990,000/100 shots) + Thermage FLX (deep dermis) covers three distinct tissue depths in a single visit. Third, as part of combination packages like the Spring Contouring Package (Shurink 300 shots + InMode FX + Shurink Tightening Band at ₩219,000) or the Titanium + Onda + InMode FX full-face protocol (₩1,550,000). The treatment takes approximately 10-15 minutes with zero downtime — patients can fly the same day. RE:BERRY operates 365 days a year with complimentary airport pickup from Incheon International Airport Terminal 1 or 2.

How InMode FX Works at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport
A streamlined four-step protocol for fractional RF skin tightening.
Skin Assessment & Goal Setting
Dr. Cho Sung-Jun evaluates your skin laxity, pore size, texture, and elasticity. He determines whether InMode FX alone is sufficient or whether a multi-layer protocol (adding Thermage FLX, Sofwave, or Ultherapy Prime) would better achieve your goals. For patients with mild laxity seeking entry-level tightening, InMode FX standalone at ₩99,000 is an excellent starting point. For patients with moderate to severe laxity, InMode FX is prescribed as the superficial layer component of a combination protocol.
Cleansing & Preparation
The treatment area is thoroughly cleansed and a thin layer of conductive gel is applied. The InMode FX handpiece is calibrated to the appropriate energy level and temperature target based on your skin assessment. No topical anesthesia is needed — InMode FX is one of the most comfortable RF treatments available, with most patients rating discomfort at 1-2 on a 10-point scale.
Fractional RF Energy Delivery
The InMode FX handpiece glides across the treatment area, delivering fractional bipolar radiofrequency energy to the superficial dermis. Built-in temperature sensors monitor skin temperature in real-time, ensuring the dermal tissue reaches the optimal 42-55 degrees Celsius range without overheating. The treatment covers the full face in approximately 10-15 minutes. Heat accumulates gradually, stimulating fibroblast activity and initiating new collagen synthesis without causing the thermal injury required for deep dermal remodeling.
Immediate Return to Activities
InMode FX treatment is complete in 10-15 minutes with zero downtime. Mild warmth and slight pinkness resolve within 1-2 hours. You can apply makeup immediately, fly the same day, and resume all normal activities. For tourists, this makes InMode FX an ideal treatment to receive during a short Korea visit or even a layover. Results develop progressively over 2-4 weeks as new collagen is synthesized.

The Science Behind InMode FX Radiofrequency
Clinical evidence supporting fractional bipolar RF for skin tightening and texture improvement.
Fractional Bipolar RF: Mechanism of Action
InMode FX uses fractional bipolar radiofrequency technology to deliver controlled thermal energy to the superficial dermis. In bipolar RF, current flows between two electrodes on the treatment handpiece, confining energy to the tissue volume between them. This creates a well-defined heating zone in the superficial dermis (0.5-2mm depth) without the deep penetration of monopolar RF systems. The thermal energy raises dermal temperature to 42-55 degrees Celsius, which is below the collagen denaturation threshold (65 degrees Celsius) but within the range that activates heat shock proteins (HSP47, HSP70) and stimulates fibroblast proliferation. This sub-ablative heating triggers a controlled wound-healing response that results in new collagen and elastin synthesis over 2-4 weeks. Hruza et al. (J Drugs Dermatol 2009; DOI: 10.25251/skin.3.supp.31) demonstrated measurable collagen density increase at 6 weeks post-treatment with bipolar RF devices.
Temperature-Controlled Safety
A key advantage of the InMode FX platform is its built-in real-time temperature monitoring system. Sensors in the treatment handpiece continuously measure skin surface temperature during RF delivery and automatically adjust or pause energy output to maintain the target temperature range. This closed-loop feedback system prevents overheating (which could cause burns) and underheating (which would produce insufficient collagen stimulation). Clinical data from Elman et al. (J Cosmet Laser Ther 2010; DOI: 10.3109/14764172.2010.514918) confirmed that temperature-controlled bipolar RF maintains consistent therapeutic temperatures across the treatment area, resulting in uniform clinical outcomes with a high safety profile.
Multi-Layer RF Strategy: Superficial + Deep
Modern aesthetic protocols increasingly recognize that optimal skin rejuvenation requires addressing multiple tissue depths. The skin is a layered organ with distinct structural characteristics at each level: the epidermis (barrier), superficial dermis (texture, pores), deep dermis (structural collagen), subcutaneous tissue (fat, deep collagen septae), and SMAS (fascial support). InMode FX targets the superficial dermis for texture and pore improvement. When combined with deeper-acting devices — Thermage FLX for deep dermal collagen, Sofwave for mid-dermis collagen, or Ultherapy Prime for SMAS — the result is comprehensive rejuvenation across all structural layers. Sadick et al. (J Cosmet Dermatol 2014; DOI: 10.1111/jocd.12073) demonstrated that multi-layer RF protocols produced superior outcomes compared to single-device treatments in a split-face study.
Pore Size Reduction with RF Energy
Enlarged pores result from reduced perifollicular collagen density and elastin degradation around the follicular infundibulum. RF energy stimulates new collagen formation around the pore openings, gradually reducing their visible diameter. Kim et al. (Ann Dermatol 2012; DOI: 10.5021/ad.2012.24.2.155) reported statistically significant pore size reduction in 78% of patients after 3 sessions of bipolar RF treatment, with results maintained at 3-month follow-up. InMode FX’s fractional delivery pattern is particularly effective for pore-targeting because it creates dense arrays of micro-thermal zones around individual pores.
