Why is lifting treatment so popular these days?

The reason why the face line collapses and the jawline becomes blurred with age is not simply a problem on the surface of the skin.

It is because the dermis, fat layer, and SMAS layer (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) under the skin gradually weaken and lose elasticity.

In the past, surgical methods were the only way to solve this sagging.

Now, lifting treatments that deliver heat energy into the skin to help it restore its elasticity on its own have become the trend.

Among them, Shurink Universe (HIFU lifting) and InMode (radiofrequency lifting) are the most frequently mentioned treatments.

Both can be performed without incisions, allow for a quick return to daily life, and have the advantage of naturally improving elasticity.

Shurink Universe: Principles and Effects

Shurink Universe is a lifting device that uses HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) energy.

When ultrasound energy is delivered to a certain depth in the skin, the area receives heat stimulation, inducing a collagen regeneration response.

Over time, new collagen is produced, and the weakened elastic structure is tightened, naturally resulting in skin elasticity and a lifting effect.

Shurink allows customized treatments for each area, such as skin texture, elasticity, jawline, and neck wrinkles, by selecting various cartridges such as 1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm depending on the depth of the skin layer.

In particular, the biggest feature is that it can reach the SMAS layer at a depth of 4.5mm, enabling lifting of the fascial layer that supports the skin.

In other words, Shurink Universe is a lifting device that gradually tightens from the inside rather than pulling the surface of the skin.

InMode Lifting: Principles and Effects

InMode is a lifting device that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy.

While ultrasound stimulates a deep layer with a 'dot', InMode evenly heats a wide area to promote collagen and elastin regeneration in the skin.

InMode consists of FX and FORMA modes.

FX uses vacuum suction and radiofrequency energy simultaneously to gently stimulate fat cells and refine the contour. It is suitable for areas where fat sags and droops, such as double chins and buccal fat.

FORMA heats the skin to a constant temperature to contract collagen and promote new collagen production over time. It helps improve overall skin elasticity and texture.

In other words, InMode is a complex lifting treatment that can manage both fat and elasticity at the same time.

Shurink vs. InMode: Key Differences

Both treatments aim for a lifting effect, but their mechanism of action and target layers are different.

Shurink Universe focuses on lifting by stimulating the deep layers of the skin using ultrasound.

InMode focuses on elasticity and contouring by evenly heating a wide area using radiofrequency.

In simple terms,

Shurink lifts upwards,

InMode refines sagging areas.

Therefore, if you have severe sagging, focus on Shurink, and if you have sagging contours, you can achieve a synergistic effect by combining InMode.

Why Combine Treatments?

Shurink and InMode work on different principles but have the same goal, so they are often combined for layered lifting.

For example, tightening the deep fascial layer with Shurink and regenerating collagen in the dermis with InMode FORMA strengthens the elastic structure step by step from the inside to the outside of the skin.

Combining these treatments can provide a more natural and longer-lasting lifting effect than receiving only one treatment.

The Importance of Skilled Medical Staff

Even if lifting devices have the same name, the results vary depending on the treatment method and technique.

The location where the ultrasound is delivered varies depending on the depth and angle of the skin layer for Shurink.

Temperature maintenance varies depending on the speed, pressure, and treatment time of moving the handpiece for InMode.

In other words, the doctor's skills and experience are more important than the device itself.

A natural and stable lifting result can be obtained without excessive heat damage only with the proficiency to accurately understand the skin structure and evenly deliver energy to each area.

Shurink Universe lifts the deep layers of the skin, and InMode improves elasticity and contours. When these two meet, you can expect three-dimensional lifting results.

This combination is suitable for those who want to naturally refine their face line without surgery or improve both elasticity loss and double chin.

The key to lifting treatment is the depth and balance of energy and the skill of the practitioner.

Therefore, it is most important to carefully check who is performing the procedure rather than the name of the device.

All treatments may vary depending on the individual.

Side effects such as swelling, inflammation, and bleeding may occur, so be careful.
