Oligio X vs Classic
What is new in X mode and who should upgrade? A practical comparison to help you choose the right Oligio RF treatment.
Oligio RF Technology
Oligio uses monopolar radiofrequency technology — the same fundamental approach as Thermage. RF energy is delivered through a treatment tip to heat the deeper dermis, causing collagen contraction and stimulating new collagen production. The treatment is non-invasive with minimal downtime, making it popular among patients who want skin tightening without the intensity of HIFU devices like Ulthera.
What X Mode Adds
Classic
- Standard RF energy delivery
- Standard cooling system
- Standard treatment tip size
- Proven, reliable results
- Lower price point
X Mode
- Enhanced energy delivery system
- Improved cooling for comfort
- Wider treatment tip for coverage
- Deeper penetration for moderate laxity
- More uniform heating pattern
Shot Count Comparison
| Treatment | Classic | X Mode |
|---|---|---|
| Lower face | 200-300 | 200-300 |
| Full face | 300-400 | 300-400 |
| Face + neck | 500-600 | 500-600 |
Shot counts are similar — the difference is energy per shot, not volume of shots.
Treatment Areas
Both Classic and X treat the same areas: forehead, cheeks, jawline, double chin, and neck. The X mode's wider tip provides slightly more efficient coverage, potentially reducing treatment time for larger areas like the neck.

When to Choose X vs Classic
"For most first-time RF patients, Classic Oligio delivers excellent results. I recommend the X upgrade for patients who have moderate skin laxity requiring deeper treatment, those who have had Classic before and want enhanced results, or when I assess that the treatment area would benefit from the deeper energy profile."
— Dr. Waleerat Thaweebanchongsin, VERZO CLINIC Founder

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Oligio X and Classic?
X adds upgraded energy delivery, improved cooling, and wider treatment tip for deeper penetration and more uniform heating.
How does Oligio compare to Thermage?
Both use monopolar RF. Thermage has longer track record. Oligio offers competitive results at similar or slightly lower price.
How many shots?
Classic: 300-600 shots. X: similar counts with enhanced energy per shot. Face: 300-400. Face+neck: 500-600.
How much does Oligio cost?
Classic: 30,000-45,000 THB. X: 35,000-55,000 THB. X upgrade adds 5,000-10,000 THB. 40-50% less than Japan.
When should I choose X over Classic?
X for moderate laxity, previous Classic experience wanting more, or doctor recommendation. Classic for mild laxity, first-time RF, maintenance.
Can Oligio be combined with other devices?
Yes — with Ulthera (deep+surface), thread lifts (RF+mechanical), or skin boosters (tightening+quality).
Does Oligio hurt?
Mild to moderate 3-4/10. Built-in cooling. X slightly more intense due to deeper energy. Numbing cream applied.
How long do results last?
Classic: 12-18 months. X: potentially slightly longer due to deeper stimulation. Full results at 2-4 months.
Considering Oligio RF Treatment?
Dr. Waleerat will assess whether Classic or X mode is optimal for your skin, and whether Oligio should be combined with other treatments for good results.
