What kind of facial lines and elasticity concerns can Shurink help?

Shurink Universe is a lifting procedure that transmits ultrasonic energy to the dermis layer and the SMAS layer with HIFU high-intensity concentrated ultrasound. It aims to clean up facial lines and manage elasticity, but it does not solve all causes of skin sagging alone or guarantee changes such as surgery.

Depending on the thickness of the skin, the amount of fat, and the direction of sagging, the depth of application and the part vary. When considering Shurink in Busan, you should first check the target layer and concern of your face rather than judging by the number of shots.

Under what conditions can I consider Shurink?

It can be considered if the facial line is blurred and the elasticity of the skin is reduced, or if the double chin and jawline sagging and the eyelids are sagging. If severe skin sagging or lack of large volume is the main case, you should compare other lifting or surgery.

  • Elasticity and facial line

    If you are worried about decreased skin elasticity and blurred jawline and facial line

  • Local sagging

    If you want to look closely at the sagging of each area, such as double chin, eye corner, or mouth corner

  • Comparison of other methods

    If severe skin sagging, fat accumulation or lack of volume is the main cause

  • Check before consultation

What is the standard for comparing Shurink and Alltite?

Shurink makes a thermal coagulation point tailored to the depth of the cartridge with HIFU, and Alltite considers the dermis and SMAS layers together with DLTD oilfield heating. Both procedures have different plans depending on the degree of sagging and skin condition, so it is not possible to conclude that specific equipment is more suitable for all cases.

In what order does Myongji Best Plastic Surgery Clinic proceed?

Myongji Best Plastic Surgery Clinic in Myeongji-dong, Gangseo-gu, Busan distributes shots based on fat thickness, sagging direction, skin layer depth, and neurovascular position. Dermatology procedures consider pain management by local anesthesia, and Shurink provides basic information on no anesthesia or ointment anesthesia.

  1. STEP 01

    Check the face structure

    Check skin thickness, fat content, sagging direction and facial line.

  2. STEP 02

    Goal depth planning

    Set the required depth between 1.5mm and 4.5mm cartridges.

  3. STEP 03

    Check the safety area

    Consider the location of facial nerves and blood vessels and plan the scope of application.

  4. STEP 04

    Energy delivery by part

    Check the skin response by distributing the planned shots by area.

  5. STEP 05

    Progress and management guidance

    We will guide you through the initial reaction, moisturizing, and blocking the next evaluation.

When to check the effect and how much is it maintained?

Shurink distinguishes and evaluates between the tightening felt immediately after the procedure and the natural elasticity changes that are confirmed over time. After the initial redness or heat subsides, you should look at the skin condition and the facial line together.

The hospital's guidance recommends 3 times every 3 to 4 weeks. Additional procedures and maintenance plans are determined after consultation according to the degree of sagging, skin reaction and daily environment.

What should I know about pain, recovery, and side effects?

The treatment time is about 20 to 30 minutes and can be carried out without anesthesia or with ointment anesthesia. Redness and fever after the procedure can usually be relieved within a few days, and it is possible to do daily life on the same day, but there are individual differences in the reaction.

  • Initial management

    Maintain moisturizing and UV protection, and do not overly irritate the treatment area.

  • Life management

    Avoid thermal stimulation, sauna, sauna, and radical exercise during the period of guidance.

  • Possible reaction

    Redness, fever, swelling, tenderness, and temporary sensory changes may appear.

  • A sign that medical treatment is needed

    If the pain gets worse or there are suspected burn symptoms, blisters, or persistent sensory abnormalities

The reaction varies depending on the skin thickness and energy plan. If the discomfort persists after the procedure, please check with the medical team.

What should I check before the cost and consultation?

The actual cost of Shurink may vary depending on the area of application, the cartridge plan, and the number of repetitions. It is necessary to confirm whether the coverage, number of plans, and follow-up management are included in the public non-beed guidance and consultation estimates.

  • Scope of application

    Check which areas are included, such as the cheeks, jawline, under the chin, and the eye area.

  • Cartridge plan

    Ask for the composition of the cartridge according to the depth of the skin layer and the goal of each area.

  • Number of times and evaluation

    Confirm the reason for the 3rd recommendation and when to evaluate the results.

  • Health information

    Inform you of skin diseases, neurological diseases, medication, and previous procedures.

non-covered costs are subject to change, so please check the latest public data and consultation estimates again before making a decision.
