Shurink in Korea for a Double Chin: Case Review

I'm Dr. Sarang Lim, head doctor at Muse Clinic Myeongdong and a member of the Korean Academy of Aesthetic Plastic & Laser Medicine. Ayun (@heyoon99) came in with a question I hear from visitors almost every week: can a lifting device do anything for full cheeks and a soft double chin, with no needles and very little time out of a short trip? For anyone searching shurink korea with the same face shape, the honest answer is yes, when the fullness sits in the lower face and the skin still has some bounce. Below is exactly what we did for Ayun, what it costs on our price list, and who I would steer toward something else.

What Ayun had: Shurink Universe, 400 shots

Shurink Universe is a focused-ultrasound (HIFU) lifting device. It sends ultrasound energy to a precise depth under the skin and creates tiny heated points there; the tissue tightens as it heals over the following weeks. In plain words, it works from underneath, so nothing is injected and nothing is cut. The Universe version has two handpieces and two delivery modes, which lets us treat the curved areas around the jaw and under the chin more evenly than the older model.

Ayun's 400 shots went where Ayun's video shows the change: the lower cheeks, the jawline and the soft area under the chin. We spend the shots where the face carries its fullness, not evenly across the whole face. For anyone weighing a double chin treatment korea clinics offer, that placement is the main reason two people with the same shot count can look different afterwards.

Why HIFU for Ayun's cheeks and chin, and not injections first

For Ayun's goal, a korean lifting treatment like Shurink (a form of hifu double chin care) was the gentler first step: one visit and no product left in the face. Fat-dissolving injections are another option for under-chin fullness, and I compare both in fat dissolving injections in Korea. For heavier tissue or a deeper lift, a different device is often a better fit, which I explain in Ultherapy vs Thermage.

• Shurink Universe (HIFU): tightens and firms the lower face from underneath; good for soft cheeks, jawline and under-chin.
• Contour injections: target small, stubborn fat pockets; useful when the fullness is fat rather than looseness.
• Thread lifting: a more mechanical lift for visible sagging; covered in thread lifting in Seoul.

What Shurink costs in Korea at Muse

Shurink Universe is priced per shot package on our list, from ₩41,000 (excl. VAT) for the first-visit 100-shot offer. Visitors from abroad pay the same list price as our Korean patients, and the number of shots is agreed with you before we start. The live price list is below, so you can see each package rather than a range.

If you are comparing shurink price in korea across clinics, compare the shot count and which version of the device is used, not just the headline number. I go deeper on this in Shurink and HIFU lifting.

The visit, the 'immediate result', and the weeks after

1. 01Cleansing, so the gel and energy sit on bare skin.
2. 02Numbing cream on the treatment areas.
3. 03Gel, then the shots in passes over the marked areas.
4. 04Finishing care and sunscreen; most people go straight back out into Myeongdong.

Ayun liked the result straight away, and many people do notice a firmer feel on the day. The fuller tightening, though, builds over the following weeks as the treated tissue remodels. Mild redness, a little swelling or tenderness along the jaw for a few days is common. Results and how long they last vary from person to person.

Booking a Shurink session on a Seoul trip

We are a one-minute walk from Myeongdong Station Exit 5, open Monday to Friday 10:00–20:00 and Saturday to Sunday 09:00–15:00, so a weekend morning session fits easily between plans.
