What is Shurink Universe?

Shurink Universe is a high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) device made by Classys in Korea. It is the most widely used HIFU in Korean clinics and is priced well below Ultherapy, so many patients repeat it every 2 to 4 months.

Visitors in Apgujeong often add 300 shots to a skin booster or Botox visit to tighten the jawline and reduce a soft double chin.

How it works

Cartridges focus ultrasound at depths such as 4.5, 3.0 and 2.0 mm, creating small heat points that contract tissue and reduce fat slightly in fuller areas. The Universe model adds a multi-pulse mode that delivers energy in a faster, less painful pattern, and a booster tip for the upper dermis.

Shurink Universe questions

Is Shurink Universe the same as Ultherapy?

Both use focused ultrasound, but Shurink has no live imaging and its cartridges cost much less. Results are shorter-lived, so it is repeated more often.

How many Shurink shots does a full face need?

300 shots covers the lower face and jawline; 400 to 600 shots covers the full face and under-chin.

Does Shurink reduce double chin fat?

Deep 4.5 mm shots can reduce a small amount of fat and tighten the area. Larger fat deposits respond better to fat-dissolving injections or liposuction.

Can I do Shurink every month?

Most doctors recommend at least 4 to 8 weeks between sessions to avoid over-treating fat and causing hollowing.

What does the multi-pulse mode change?

It splits energy into rapid smaller pulses, which most patients find less painful than the classic single-line mode.

Why is Shurink so cheap in Seoul?

Classys is a Korean maker and cartridges cost far less than imported devices. Clinics also use it as an entry treatment in event packages.
