Let me introduce Shurink Universe, a lifting treatment.

Hello 🙂
I’m Dr. Kim Yeon-Jin, Chief Director of UH CELL Gangnam (formerly Dr. Petit Clinic Gangnam).
Having performed a wide range of Korean aesthetic lifting treatments in the Gangnam area of Seoul since my time at Dr. Petit Clinic Gangnam, I’d like to explain today’s topic in an easy-to-understand way as well.
Today, I’d like to introduce Shurink Universe, one of the most popular ultrasound lifting treatments in Korea and one of the widely performed Korean skincare procedures.
It is also one of the basic lifting devices most commonly used at Korean aesthetic clinics in Seoul’s Gangnam district.
ULTRA F
Normal Mode / MP Mode
ULTRA BOOSTER
Normal Mode / MP Mode
Shurink Universe consists of a total of four cartridges.

- 1.5mm (Derma Shurink)
- 2.0mm (Eye Shurink)
- 3.0mm (Cell-up Shurink)
- 4.5mm (Line-up Shurink)
Because the treatment can be selected according to the target depth,
the most appropriate approach is determined through a consultation after your visit, based on your individual skin condition and facial contours.
This is one of the key points of Korean aesthetic lifting treatments.
Even in Seoul’s Gangnam district, the results can vary significantly depending on whether the treatment is customized.
Benefits of Shurink Universe

One of the advantages of Shurink Universe as a Korean skincare treatment is that it stimulates collagen regeneration while minimizing damage to the skin.
It helps tighten sagging skin and can be applied to various areas, including the forehead, around the eyes, jawline, double chin, cheeks, and neck wrinkles, making it a highly versatile Korean lifting treatment.
In particular, at Korean aesthetic clinics in Seoul’s Gangnam district, it is often recommended for those who want to improve their overall facial contours while enhancing skin firmness at the same time.
Shurink vs Shurink Universe: What’s the difference?
Shurink Universe can be considered the upgraded version of the original Shurink.
- Denser thermal coagulation points (approximately 400)
- More precise treatment, even in curved areas
- Approximately 2.5 times faster treatment speed
- Reduced discomfort
- Can be combined with the Aurora Ampoule for a synergistic skin booster effect
With these improvements, Shurink Universe is regarded as a device that has achieved higher patient satisfaction than the original Shurink in the Korean aesthetic market.

Recommended Number of Shots
One of the features of Shurink Universe is that the number of shots can be adjusted according to your needs.
- Partial lifting : Approximately 100 shots or more
- Basic treatment: Approximately 300 shots
- Full-face Lifting: Approximately 500 shots or more
However, the required number of shots varies depending on whether the treatment is performed on the entire face or a specific area. Therefore, it is best to determine the appropriate number of shots through a consultation after visiting the clinic in Gangnam.
This is also an important factor in Korean aesthetic treatments in Seoul.
When Will You See Results & How Long Do They Last?
The lifting effect usually begins to appear gradually about two weeks after the treatment.
Although it varies from person to person, the results generally last for approximately 3 to 6 months.
In addition, when combined with other Korean lifting treatments or skin boosters, both the duration of the results and the overall effectiveness can be enhanced. For this reason, combination treatments are commonly performed at Korean aesthetic clinics in Seoul’s Gangnam district.

Can Hollow Cheeks Be Prevented?

One of the biggest concerns people have when considering Shurink Universe is hollow cheeks.
There are two main reasons why hollow cheeks can occur.
- When pre-existing mild cheek hollowing was not recognized before treatment
- When an excessive number of shots was used during the treatment
Therefore, at our Gangnam clinic, we carefully assess your facial condition during the consultation and follow the principle of using only the appropriate number of shots.
In addition, if mild cheek hollowing is identified before the procedure, we avoid delivering energy to that area in order to minimize the risk of side effects.
In this way, performing the treatment safely through a personalized treatment plan is one of the most important aspects of Korean aesthetic lifting treatments.
Today, we introduced Shurink Universe, one of the representative Korean skincare lifting treatments that has been consistently performed in Korea, Seoul, and Gangnam.
While choosing the right lifting device is important, creating a treatment plan tailored to your individual skin condition is even more important. If you are considering Korean aesthetic treatments in Seoul’s Gangnam district, we recommend making your decision after receiving a thorough consultation. 🙂
