While also considering downtime
Targets sagging in areas where subcutaneous fat is a concern
Quantum is one of the non-invasive skin tightening treatments utilizing InMode's Ignite RF technology. Ignite RF is the successor to Embrace RF, featuring a 3D approach that targets three layers (dermis, subcutaneous tissue, and subcutaneous fat) while monitoring the temperature of deep tissue beneath the skin. BIANCA CLINIC is the fourth facility in Japan to introduce this device. It offers an optimal balance of efficacy and risk, with careful consideration given to preventing burns and minimizing downtime.
At Bianca Clinic, we thoroughly assess the condition and causes of sagging to propose treatments that bring each patient closer to their ideal appearance. While Quantum alone is effective for sagging skin treatment, we also offer combined procedures with other sagging treatments. For example, combining Quantum with procedures like "BIANCA LIFT (Thread Lift)"—which delivers significant lifting effects—or "Liposuction"—which reduces fat volume—can sometimes help achieve a more efficiently defined facial and body contour.

CHARACTERISTICSQuantum is
Quantum is a treatment utilizing Ignite RF technology. It delivers fractional RF (radiofrequency) energy from within the skin without incisions, providing powerful tightening for facial and body sagging. It features two handpiece types: Quantum 10 and Quantum 25. These insert slender cannulas (needles) under the skin to deliver bipolar RF* directly to the deep dermal layers. Its key feature is using RF thermal energy, reaching a maximum temperature of 102°C, to dissolve fat while contracting surrounding tissue, effectively tightening and firming sagging areas where subcutaneous fat is a concern.
Quantum features technology that measures impedance within the skin. It carries a relatively low risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and offers reduced downtime compared to conventional treatments. Those hesitant about procedures involving incisions also appreciate Quantum, a non-invasive treatment for sagging skin.
* Bipolar RF... A mechanism where high-frequency energy travels back and forth between two electrodes, generating heat within the skin. Continuous irradiation is said to promote the production of skin elasticity substances like collagen and elastin in the superficial to mid-dermis.
Two types of handpieces are used depending on the treatment area.
Quantum offers two types of handpieces, each differing in cannula length, diameter, and peak power. At Bianca Clinic, we select the appropriate handpiece based on the treatment area and objective.
【Quantum Handpiece】
Quantum 25
・Handpiece with a length of 25 cm, diameter of 3.3 mm, peak power of 60 W, and maximum pulse width of 250 ms.
・Suitable for treating large areas, primarily used for body contouring.
Quantum 10
・Handpiece with a length of 10 cm, diameter of 2.2 mm, peak power of 35 W, and maximum pulse width of 250 ms.
・Ideal for treating small areas or sensitive regions, primarily used for facial contouring. Employed when delivering RF energy to the subdermal vascular network.
Can be combined with liposuction
Quantum can be performed simultaneously with liposuction. Combining these two procedures tends to slightly reduce downtime compared to liposuction alone. This is because the procedure utilizes RF (radiofrequency) heating to promote hemostasis. This results in less bleeding and reduces the burden on the treated area.
For those concerned about downtime, we offer an "Edema Reduction IV Drip" to minimize swelling, as well as a "Post-Procedure Oral Supplement Set" formulated by our aesthetic medicine director, Dr. Yoko Maeda. These supplements provide nutrients often difficult to obtain through daily life, supporting post-procedure recovery and promoting beautiful skin.
Benefits
MERITIt is possible to tighten the entire sagging tissue with a surface treatment.
Quantum delivers fractional RF (radiofrequency) energy deep within the skin, efficiently tightening sagging tissue across an entire area rather than just individual points.
Post-treatment scars are less noticeable and downtime is minimal.
Quantum scars are barely noticeable, typically just pinprick-sized marks measuring a few millimeters, and tend to have minimal downtime.
Tightening while boosting skin firmness and elasticity
When thermal energy stimulates the fibrous tissue and dermis, collagen and elastin are produced, tightening the skin while simultaneously enhancing its firmness and elasticity.
Recommended Features
RECOMMENDED POINTSQuantum skin tightening treatment is suitable for individuals who:
Quantum therapy is suitable for individuals experiencing the following concerns:
For those who want to effectively treat sagging without undergoing a facelift procedure
For those concerned about sagging after osteotomy surgery
For those concerned about sagging after liposuction
Individuals who were denied liposuction due to sagging skin
However, suitability varies depending on the degree of sagging. At our clinic, we offer not only Quantum but also various other sagging treatments. Please consult with us during your initial consultation.
Combining liposuction and thread lift for enhanced results
If you're concerned about sagging or loose skin along your jawline or body contours, depending on your facial or body condition and age, treatments like Quantum or liposuction alone may not deliver the desired results.
For facial concerns, we can combine Quantum with simultaneous procedures like liposuction or thread lifts. By lifting sagging facial tissue, the face becomes noticeably firmer, and enhanced results can be expected.
For body concerns, we also offer combined treatments of Quantum and liposuction. This combination is considered by many patients because it tends to reduce the likelihood of skin tightening or indentations on the body's surface and shorten downtime compared to achieving volume reduction through liposuction alone.
Treatment is possible regardless of subcutaneous fat thickness.
Quantum is also effective on areas with significant subcutaneous fat. This is because its cannula-shaped handpiece delivers fractional RF energy as a surface treatment from within the skin. The RF thermal energy dissolves fat while contracting surrounding tissue, tightening sagging skin.
For non-invasive skin tightening treatments like RF devices that deliver energy at specific points or RF approaches applied to the skin's surface, achieving the desired tightening effect can be challenging depending on the thickness of the fat layer. At Bianca Clinic, our doctors examine each patient's individual condition and recommend the most suitable treatment. Please schedule a consultation first.

CONTENT OF TREATMENTPhysician's examination and counseling
Our concierge will listen to your concerns and requests. Following that, a physician will conduct an examination and explain the treatment details and downtime.
Face washing and marking
Please wash your face before the treatment, and we will mark the treatment area.
Anesthesia and Treatment
Treatment begins. Anesthesia (relaxation anesthesia/intravenous anesthesia/nitrous oxide anesthesia) will be administered. A 2-3mm needle puncture will be made in an inconspicuous area of the treatment site to insert a cannula, through which fractional RF energy will be delivered. Depending on the treatment area, the procedure takes approximately 30 to 60 minutes.
Aftercare
Apply medical protective tape to the cannula insertion site and wear a facial bandage to minimize downtime. The bandage must be worn for 72 hours after the procedure.
Once the anesthesia has fully worn off, you may return home. Please take the antibiotics prescribed to prevent post-procedure infection according to the correct dosage and instructions.

Quantum Frequently Asked Questions
Q&AWhat is the difference between quantum and hyphen?
Quantum and HIFU are both non-invasive treatments for sagging skin that utilize thermal energy, with the primary difference being their method of application. Quantum delivers high-temperature heat directly into the skin's deeper layers, effectively targeting sagging tissue. HIFU, on the other hand, uses high-density ultrasound waves applied to the skin's surface to deliver controlled thermal energy. While Quantum typically has a slightly longer downtime compared to HIFU, it is a useful option when seeking significant results from a single session.
What is the difference between Quantum and Facelift?
The difference between Quantum and facelifts lies in the procedure method. Quantum tightens sagging skin without incisions by applying RF energy beneath the skin. Facelifts, on the other hand, are surgical procedures that involve making incisions in inconspicuous areas like behind the ears and manually lifting sagging layers.
While facelifts are said to offer longer-lasting results, for those hesitant about incisions, we also offer non-surgical treatments for sagging skin, including Quantum.
When can I start feeling the effects of Quantum?
Quantum is not a treatment that delivers immediate results, but you will gradually begin to notice tightening effects starting one month after the procedure, reaching peak results within 3 to 6 months.
Can Quantum improve nasolabial folds?
Treatment approaches differ for nasolabial folds formed by inherent bone structure versus those caused by aging. Therefore, while it's difficult to generalize, Quantum may be effective in certain cases. To determine if your nasolabial folds are suitable for Quantum treatment, please consult with a physician.
Are there any treatments that can be used in combination with Quantum?
Some treatments can be combined. For example, combining Quantum with liposuction can help achieve a more defined contour by reducing sagging. We offer step-by-step proposals to help you achieve your ideal results, so please consult us about your concerns first.
What is the downtime for Quantum?
Individual results may vary, but downtime for Quantum typically lasts about 1 to 2 weeks. Significant swelling occurs immediately after treatment but gradually subsides, allowing you to feel the tightening effect. While some may perceive the downtime as longer, symptoms generally become barely noticeable within about a month. Should any concerning symptoms arise post-treatment, please consult your physician promptly.
How long does the effect of Quantum last?
The effects of Quantum are said to last approximately six months to one year. As post-treatment swelling begins to subside, you will gradually notice tightening over time. While individual results vary, the peak tightening effect is typically felt around six months after treatment, with the effects generally lasting for about one year following the procedure.
Does the Quantum treatment cause pain?
Quantum procedures involve anesthesia, so in most cases, the treatment is completed while you are drowsy and without feeling any pain. Bianca Clinic takes care to address concerns about procedure discomfort. If you have significant anxiety about pain, please consult with your doctor.
When can I bathe, wash my face, and apply makeup?
Bathing, washing your face, and applying makeup are possible the next day or later after the Quantum treatment.
