LDM Water Drop Lifting
Water drop lifting is a Korean marketing term commonly used for procedures involving LDM dual-frequency ultrasound devices. It does not inject water into the skin and is not a standardized medical term.
LDM and dual-frequency ultrasound
LDM is a trade name for device technology that rapidly alternates between ultrasound frequencies. Water drop lifting is a consumer-facing label attached to that technology. The exact device and settings can vary between providers.

Difference from other lifting procedures
Lifting is an umbrella marketing word for procedures or services intended to create a tighter or more elevated appearance. Ultrasound devices differ in frequency, output, and intended use. LDM should not be treated as interchangeable with high-intensity focused ultrasound.
Information-only status
Studies involve specific devices, patient groups, and treatment combinations. Their findings should not be expanded into universal claims about regeneration or swelling reduction. This entry also does not mean that Meccrom provides the device or procedure.
