What is Volnewmer?

Volnewmer is a monopolar radiofrequency device from Classys, the Korean maker of Shurink. It runs at 6.78 MHz and uses continuous contact water cooling, which lets doctors work the dermis with less surface pain. It has FDA clearance and Korean MFDS approval, and is sold abroad as Everesse.

Apgujeong patients book it as a lower-cost RF alternative to Thermage, often paired with Shurink for lift and tightening in one visit.

How it works

Each pulse begins with an impedance check, then delivers heat into the papillary and reticular dermis while chilled water flows through the tip. Interchangeable tips cover the eyes (0.25 cm2), jaw (3.0 cm2), face (4.0 cm2) and body (16 cm2).

Volnewmer questions

Is Volnewmer less painful than Thermage?

Many patients find it more comfortable because the water cooling runs continuously. Pain still depends on energy level and area.

Can Volnewmer treat the eyelids?

It has a small I tip for the eye area. Ask whether the clinic stocks it and whether eye shields are used.

How many shots are typical?

300 shots is a common face treatment; 600 shots adds more passes and the under-chin.

What is the link between Volnewmer and Everesse?

They are the same Classys device marketed under different names in different countries.

Should I pair Volnewmer with Shurink?

Many clinics do, using Shurink for deeper lift and Volnewmer for skin tightening. It is optional and adds cost.

How soon can I wear makeup after Volnewmer?

Usually the same day, as there are no wounds.
