Shurink Universe is HIFU that can reach the SMAS at 4.5mm, so cost tracks with how many shots and cartridge depths (1.5mm, 3.0mm, 4.5mm) your lift needs.
Shurink Universe cost in Gangnam, Seoul depends on how many shots you need, which zones are treated (full face, lower face, neck), and which cartridge depths of 1.5mm to 4.5mm are used. Because a lift is mapped per face, Dr. Yoongon Ryu confirms your individual cost at consultation rather than one fixed figure.

Shurink Universe cost at our Gangnam (Seoul) location is shaped by the size of your treatment map, not a single flat price. Shurink Universe is a HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) platform from Classys that delivers focused energy to precise depths, so the main cost driver is the shot count: a targeted lower-face session uses far fewer shots than a full-face-and-neck plan. More shots and more zones mean more energy delivered, and that is the biggest variable in your total.
The second driver is which cartridge depths your plan combines. Shurink Universe cartridges reach the dermis at 1.5mm and 3.0mm and the SMAS layer at 4.5mm, the same structural tissue a surgical lift addresses. A plan that layers superficial and deep depths costs more than a single-depth pass because it treats both skin quality and deeper laxity in one visit.
At our Gangnam (Seoul) location on Gangnam-daero, about 2 minutes from Gangnam Station exit 10, HIFU lifting is consultation-led. Dr. Yoongon Ryu assesses your laxity, maps the shots and depths, and explains cost transparently in English so international patients can plan around a Seoul, Korea trip.
Shurink Universe works by focusing ultrasound energy into tiny thermal coagulation points beneath the surface, which triggers collagen contraction and gradual remodelling over the following 2 to 3 months. Cost scales with how much of this energy your face needs. Each cartridge fires a set number of lines or shots, and a comprehensive lift across cheeks, jawline, and neck simply uses more shots than a small jawline touch-up. The 4.5mm cartridge targets the SMAS for deeper lifting, the 3.0mm and 1.5mm cartridges refine the dermis for firmness and texture, and combining depths delivers a more complete result but raises the total. Because the epidermis is spared, downtime stays minimal regardless of plan size, so what you pay reflects coverage and depth rather than recovery services. Dr. Yoongon Ryu sequences the shots so energy is placed where laxity is greatest, which is why your final cost is set after a face assessment, not before.

Dr. Yoongon Ryu grades laxity across up to 3 zones (lower face, mid face, neck), which is the single biggest cost factor.
A plan is quoted by total shots, and a full-face-and-neck lift can use 300 to 600 more shots than a single-zone touch-up, so the count drives the total.
Cartridges at 1.5mm, 3.0mm, and 4.5mm are combined to your needs, and layering 2 or 3 depths costs more than a single-depth pass.
If skin quality or volume is also a goal, 1 or 2 complementary treatments are layered across the plan, which adds to the overall cost over the 2 to 3 month remodelling window.
After the face map, Dr. Yoongon Ryu gives a transparent, individualised cost in English rather than one fixed price for everyone.

Dr. Yoongon Ryu assesses laxity, maps zones and depths, and explains the shot count and what drives your cost, in English.
After numbing cream, a session usually takes about 20 to 40 minutes depending on shot count and how many zones are treated.
Most patients complete a lift in a single visit, so cost is mapped to that session rather than an open-ended course.
Lifting builds gradually over 2 to 3 months as collagen remodels, and your doctor reviews progress to plan any maintenance.
Results commonly last around 6 to 12 months depending on skin and age, so periodic maintenance is factored into long-term planning.
Shurink Universe cost in Gangnam, Seoul depends on your shot count, the zones treated, and which cartridge depths of 1.5mm to 4.5mm are used. Because a lift is mapped per face, the exact cost is confirmed at consultation. You can start on our face lift page.
There is no flat price because coverage varies widely, from a small jawline area to a full face and neck. Each face needs a different shot count and depth mix, so two patients rarely pay the same. Dr. Yoongon Ryu sets your cost after mapping laxity rather than from a one-size menu.
Shot count is usually the biggest factor in your cost, because more shots mean more energy delivered across more zones. A single-zone touch-up uses far fewer shots than a full-face-and-neck lift. The cartridge depths you combine, from 1.5mm to 4.5mm, are the next largest driver.
Shurink Universe cartridges reach 1.5mm and 3.0mm in the dermis and 4.5mm at the SMAS, and combining depths costs more than a single pass. The 4.5mm depth drives deeper lifting while shallower depths refine texture. Your Ultherapy Prime option targets the SMAS with imaging if you prefer visualisation.
Shurink Universe is focused ultrasound priced by shots and depths, while Thermage FLX is radiofrequency priced by tip size and area. Ultrasound targets deeper lifting at the SMAS, whereas RF firms more broadly. Many patients choose based on whether lift or overall firming is the priority, which your doctor helps decide.
Comfort and downtime relate to plan size rather than being separate charges. Numbing cream is used, and most patients feel warm, pulsed sensations during the deeper shots. Downtime is usually minimal, with brief redness, so what you pay reflects shot count and depth rather than recovery services.
Most patients achieve their lift in a single session, then consider maintenance once or twice a year as collagen naturally ages. This differs from injectable plans, so cost is usually quoted per lift rather than as a long course. Your doctor advises on timing based on your skin and age at consultation.
Visible lifting builds gradually over 2 to 3 months as collagen remodels, rather than appearing immediately after the session. Some early tightening can be felt sooner. Your doctor reviews progress so any maintenance is planned around how your skin responds, keeping cost matched to results.
Results commonly last around 6 to 12 months depending on your age, skin thickness, and how quickly collagen turns over, so it is managed with periodic maintenance rather than a one-time fix. Combining with skin-quality treatments can support the outcome. Longevity is discussed as part of your cost plan at consultation.
Yes, HIFU lifting pairs well with skin-quality or volume treatments for a fuller result, and combining changes the total. A skin booster can address glow while HIFU lifts. Dr. Yoongon Ryu sequences treatments so the skin is not over-stressed and explains the combined cost clearly.
Most adults with mild to moderate facial or neck laxity who want non-surgical lifting are suitable candidates. A consultation grades your laxity and confirms shot count and depths. Very advanced sagging may respond better to surgery, which your doctor will explain honestly upfront so your cost and expectations align.
HIFU is widely performed and generally considered safe when a trained doctor sets depths and shot counts to your anatomy. A meta-analysis reported mostly mild, transient effects like redness. A consultation checks for contraindications first. You can review lifting options on our face lift page.
Age and skin thickness influence how many shots and which depths give the best lift, which in turn affects your plan and cost. Thinner or more lax skin may need a different mapping than firmer skin. Dr. Yoongon Ryu accounts for this at consultation so the plan is both effective and appropriately priced.
Shurink Universe is performed at our Gangnam (Seoul) location on Gangnam-daero, about 2 minutes from Gangnam Station exit 10, with Dr. Yoongon Ryu. English-speaking staff support international patients throughout. You can compare energy options on our Ultherapy Prime page before booking a consultation.
Aftercare is simple and inexpensive: daily sunscreen, gentle skincare, and hydration while collagen remodels. There is no major recovery cost. Some patients add supportive skin treatments, which is optional. Your doctor explains aftercare transparently so you can plan around your stay without unexpected charges.
For most patients, 1 to 2 days in Seoul is comfortable, covering a consultation, the session, and a short review. Because downtime is usually minimal, many combine it with other Gangnam plans. Our English-speaking team helps coordinate timing and cost around your travel dates.
Yes, flying within a day is generally fine because HIFU is non-invasive with minimal downtime. Cabin air is drying, so moisturise and protect treated skin from sun. Since lifting builds over 2 to 3 months, you will see the fuller result at home, and remote check-ins in English keep your plan on track.
