What is HIFU Lifting?

As skin ages, collagen decreases, and elasticity diminishes. HIFU lifting is a non-surgical lifting procedure developed to improve these signs of aging.

HIFU stands for ‘High Intensity Focused Ultrasound,’ a technology that focuses high-intensity ultrasound energy on specific depths within the skin to generate heat.

Without damaging the skin surface, it creates thermal coagulation points in the dermis and SMAS layer (superficial muscular aponeurotic system), stimulating collagen regeneration.

In this process, proteins in the skin contract, and over time, new collagen is produced, gradually improving skin elasticity.

In essence, HIFU lifting is a procedure that offers lifting effects in the deep layers of the skin without incisions.

Ultherapy vs. Shurink Universe: What's the Difference?

Both procedures are based on HIFU technology but differ in energy intensity, delivery method, and the sensation during the procedure.

Ultherapy is a representative HIFU lifting treatment that focuses strong energy on one point to induce a powerful lifting effect in a short time.

Due to its high energy output, the procedure can be painful, and sleep anesthesia or cream anesthesia may be necessary.

On the other hand, Shurink Universe is based on the HIFU principle but uses a gentler, more precise energy distribution.

Therefore, it has the advantage of being less painful, causing less skin irritation, and allowing for a quicker return to daily life.

While both procedures have the same goal:

Ultherapy is suitable for those who want a strong lifting effect in a single session.

Shurink Universe is suitable for those who need less pain and repeated management.

The Principle and Effects of Shurink Universe

Shurink Universe delivers ultrasound energy to depths of 1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm, providing customized lifting for each skin layer.

1.5mm: Improves skin texture, reduces fine lines

3.0mm: Enhances skin elasticity, lifting

4.5mm: SMAS layer contraction for lifting effect

An immediate tightening effect may be visible after the procedure, and natural elasticity improvement occurs over approximately 2-3 months as collagen regenerates.

Additionally, Shurink Universe allows for more detailed focus design than existing HIFU technologies, enabling customized adjustments for each area.

Depending on the skin condition, heat energy can be densely distributed or widely spread, allowing for customized lifting design.

Advantages of the Ultra Booster (Pen-Type) Handpiece

The Ultra Booster handpiece (pen-type) of Shurink Universe is designed to precisely access small areas or areas with many curves on the face.

Lighter and easier to manipulate than existing handpieces, it can be used stably on sensitive and delicate areas such as the jawline, cheekbones, and around the nasolabial folds.

The pen-type Shurink maintains a consistent energy density even in narrow areas, helping to create a uniform lifting effect. It also enables precise procedures on curved areas that are difficult to access with existing equipment.

Why Jamsil Shurink Prices Differ

The price of Shurink Universe is not determined solely by the number of shots or treatment time.

The biggest difference comes from the practitioner's skill, treatment know-how, and the precision of the treatment method.

HIFU lifting is not a procedure that ends with the push of a button.

It requires understanding the anatomical structure of the face and accurately identifying the skin thickness, fat layer, and SMAS layer position in each area.

Afterward, a process of finely adjusting the depth, interval, and pressure to ensure that the ultrasound energy reaches the target layer is necessary.

Experienced practitioners do not simply shoot a “set number of shots” but design the position and direction of each shot, considering the overall line and balance of the face.

Even with the same 300 shots, the difference in effect can vary greatly depending on the pattern in which they are delivered.

Also, consistent pressure and speed must be maintained to ensure that thermal coagulation points are formed evenly, and the energy intensity must also be adjusted differently depending on the skin type or elasticity.

In other words, the true value of Shurink Universe is completed not by the equipment but by the practitioner's fingertips.

The sense of finding the correct layer, the gentle pressure control, and the carefully performed procedure determine the naturalness and satisfaction of the results.

Ultimately, the difference in Jamsil Shurink prices is not simply due to the number of shots or treatment time but stems from the skill and thorough care of experienced practitioners who understand and meticulously design the face.

Why Results Vary Depending on Skill and Expertise, Even with the Same Equipment

Jamsil Shurink is not simply a procedure of pressing a button.

It requires understanding the anatomical structure of the face and performing the procedure with consistent pressure while maintaining a safe depth and angle.

Experienced practitioners design the treatment to ensure that energy is delivered evenly by maintaining a consistent interval, pressure, and speed of thermal coagulation points.

This directly affects the uniformity of skin texture, elasticity, and the degree of lifting after the procedure.

In short, even with the same equipment, skilled practitioners can expect more natural and stable results by treating the correct layer, consistent depth, and uniform intervals.

All procedures may vary depending on the individual,

and side effects such as swelling, inflammation, and bleeding may occur, so caution is advised.
