What is LDM SMART?
LDM SMART is a device from Wellcomet, a German company. LDM is used at Shinebom Clinic in a treatment the clinic calls water drop lifting, a nickname for the way the handpiece is used on moistened skin. It is the clinic's gentlest ultrasound option and sits apart from stronger lifting machines such as Ulthera.
How do three crossed frequencies work?
Three ultrasound frequencies are directed so that they cross in the skin. Generally, the aim of crossing frequencies is to deliver mild energy at several depths at once without creating strong heat at any single point. Unlike focused ultrasound, the energy is spread out, which is why the treatment is considered low in intensity.
How does the experience differ?
The clinic describes little pain and the ability to go about your day right after. Redness typically settles in hours. It is not a quick substitute for a procedure that changes shape, so expectations should match the intensity: it supports skin quality rather than reshaping the face.
How often is it used?
The clinic repeats LDM every 2 to 4 weeks. That frequency suits people who prefer a gradual, low-downtime routine. It is also compared with skin boosters in this guide: LDM vs skin booster. For the care plan itself, see LDM regeneration.
What should you know first?
Sunscreen is advised afterward, and scrubs should be avoided. Folliculitis can occasionally appear and may need oral medicine, so tell the clinic if bumps develop. Mention pregnancy, implants and skin infections before treatment. The lifting device aftercare guide covers general care after lifting machines, and the doctor will tell you what applies to your plan. Prices are quoted after consultation.
