What is Shurink?
Shurink is a Korean-made HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) lifting device by Classys. It works on the same principle as Ultherapy at a fraction of the price, and is one of the most widely performed lifting treatments in Korea.
Who is it for?
First-time lifting patients, people in their 20s–30s who want prevention or a subtle jawline improvement, and anyone who wants to try HIFU before committing to Ultherapy.
How does it work?
Focused ultrasound creates small thermal coagulation points at 1.5 mm, 3.0 mm and 4.5 mm depth, tightening the SMAS and dermis. 300 shots covers the jawline and cheeks; 600 shots covers the full face.
