What Is Shurink?
Shurink is a non-surgical ultrasound lifting treatment that delivers focused ultrasound energy deep beneath the skin to stimulate collagen production and tightening.
Like other HIFU-based treatments, Shurink targets:
- Deep dermal layers
- SMAS layer (the structural support layer of the face)
Key characteristics
- Non-invasive
- No incisions or injections
- Gradual, natural lifting results
- Short recovery time
Why Shurink Is Popular in Seoul
Shurink aligns well with Seoul’s preference for natural-looking lifting and frequent maintenance treatments.
Reasons Shurink is widely chosen
- Effective for early to moderate sagging
- Short treatment time
- Minimal downtime
- Often used as a regular maintenance lift
- More affordable compared to premium ultrasound devices
How Shurink Works
Shurink uses focused ultrasound energy to create controlled thermal points at specific depths.
What happens under the skin
- Ultrasound energy heats targeted tissue points
- Collagen fibers contract
- New collagen production is stimulated
- Skin gradually tightens and lifts over time
Because energy is delivered precisely, the surface skin remains largely unaffected.
