*What is Focused Ultrasound Lifting?

Ultrasound lifting (HIFU: High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a non-surgical lifting technology that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound energy to precisely deliver energy to specific layers of the skin, thereby inducing collagen regeneration and lifting effects.

Similar to how a magnifying glass focuses sunlight to ignite a fire, ultrasound energy is concentrated at specific depths within the skin to create momentary high-temperature conditions, thereby forming microscopic thermal coagulation points (TCPs) within the skin tissue.

These coagulation points are exposed to high temperatures of approximately 60-70 degrees Celsius, stimulating only the targeted areas where heat is concentrated without damaging surrounding tissues, thereby promoting collagen denaturation and regeneration.

Notably, HIFU is the only non-invasive device capable of reaching the deep SMAS layer (superficial muscular aponeurotic system) of the skin, which is the same anatomical structure tightened during surgical facelifts.

Delivering energy to the SMAS layer results in immediate tissue contraction and collagen fiber remodeling, leading to sustained long-term lifting effects.

Furthermore, HIFU has the advantage of minimal surface damage when passing through the epidermis, resulting in less downtime and applicability to various skin types.

*Effects by Cartridge (1.5mm/ 3.0mm/ 4.5mm)

1.5mm (Upper Dermis)

Improvement of fine wrinkles on thin skin

Targets wrinkles around the eyes, glabella, and mouth

Skin texture & pore reduction, tone correction

3.0mm (Lower Dermis)

Improvement of elasticity in cheeks/nasolabial folds

Targets early sagging, pore tightening

Restores skin firmness from within

4.5mm (SMAS Layer)

Lifting for jowls, jawline, and double chin

Improvement of deep tissue contraction and sagging

Effective for moderate to severe sagging

6.0mm (Fat Layer)

Effective for areas with deep subcutaneous fat, such as a double chin

Also suitable for body treatments (e.g., abdomen, thighs, arms)

Targets the fat layer for fat cell contraction and volume improvement

​Each cartridge has a different treatment purpose depending on the target layer.

The 1.5mm is excellent for improving fine wrinkles and skin texture, the 3.0mm focuses on elasticity and tightening, and the 4.5mm is used for significant lifting effects. The 6.0mm is used for powerfully targeting fat.

*DOT Mode and MP Mode

-DOT mode allows for precise energy delivery point by point, enabling delicate treatment planning and providing excellent immediate contraction effects.

It can be safely used on delicate and contoured areas such as around the eyes, mouth, chin, and nasolabial folds, and the more experienced the practitioner, the greater the benefits of customized lifting design can be leveraged.

-MP mode delivers linear energy at regular intervals, acting quickly over large areas and being effective in inducing overall lifting effects.

It is efficient for novice practitioners or when quick lifting effects are desired over large areas, and the pain is relatively less.

DOT and MP modes have significant synergistic effects when used together, and a combination of overall contour lifting (MP) + point lifting (DOT) can yield more precise results.

*Kkeut Clinic's Shurink Universe

The true value of Shurink Universe lies in

1. Organically utilizing different handpieces, and

2. Strategically combining DOT and MP modes

is truly completed.

Areas with many curves and contours are precisely designed with a pen-type handpiece, and large areas are efficiently covered with MP mode, then

the method of intensively applying DOT mode to the key lifting points can be described as a delicate technique that sculpts the entire face like a work of art.

"The completion of customized lifting, from the depth of energy to the delicacy of the handpiece and the harmony of modes, is not just a simple procedure, but a precise design."

We highly recommend Shrink Universe treatment for those who desire natural and delicate lifting without downtime, or who wish to improve overall loss of elasticity and sagging.

Is Shrink Universe less effective than Ulthera?

To get straight to the point,

If the treatment is performed under the same conditions (output, depth, number of shots),

there is no significant difference in effectiveness between Shrink Universe and Ulthera.

Both devices utilize High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to

deliver thermal energy to the deep tissue (SMAS layer) within the skin,

and achieve a lifting effect based on the principle of inducing collagen contraction and regeneration.

For example,

Shrink Universe (Dot Mode) 1.0j x 300 shots

In the case of Ulthera 1.0j x 300 shots, both accumulate a total of 300j of energy.

The duration of HIFU treatment results depends less on the 'device name' than on

how the 'skin tissue responds to thermal coagulation'.

And how much the skin tissue responds to thermal coagulation

is determined by the total amount of focused ultrasound energy.

Treatment Information

1. Shrink Universe is a second-generation Shrink lifting treatment that uses High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to focus energy on the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) layer of the face, which has lost elasticity and sagged due to aging. It regenerates collagen and contracts loosened tissue, helping to improve overall elasticity.

2. The treatment speed is more than twice as fast as the existing Shrink, and with the Ultra Booster pen-type handpiece, ultrasound energy can be delivered more precisely to the V-line, cheeks, cheekbones, and other curved areas or around the eyes, allowing for more thorough lifting.

3. The accelerated laser delivery speed shortens treatment time, and reduced pain makes for a more comfortable procedure. With powerful energy creating approximately 400 thermal coagulation points per shot, the effects have been upgraded.

Post-treatment Precautions

ㆍIf the skin is thin, tip marks may occur on the treated area. If tip marks appear, they will gradually and naturally subside after about 1-2 weeks, so there is no need to worry too much.

ㆍAfter the procedure, minor symptoms such as (slight redness, burning sensation, throbbing, swelling, pain, toothache, tooth sensitivity) may occur in the treated area. While there are individual differences, these usually subside within 1-2 weeks, so there is no need to worry too much.

One Slight Difference 1: Personalized Output Adjustment – Treatment Considering Pain and Efficacy

·         Because Shrink has a weaker base output compared to Ulthera, it is important to finely adjust the output intensity for each individual during the treatment.

·         At Kkeut Clinic, we continuously communicate with our clients during treatment and adjust the output intensity considering their pain level to ensure optimal results.

The Kkeut Difference 2: Combining Ultherapy Mode (Dot Output) – More Powerful Results

·         Shrink Universe fundamentally irradiates in a linear (line) pattern, unlike Ultherapy (dot irradiation), which allows heat to disperse.

·         However, Shrink also has an Ultherapy mode (dot output), and by utilizing it, you can expect a strong lifting effect in specific areas.

·         Most clinics do not add dot output because it is time-consuming, but at Kkeut Clinic, we add Ultherapy mode to necessary areas to perform more precise treatments.

The Kkeut Difference 3: Design is Essential – Even with 100 or 200 shots, precise application to the necessary areas is crucial

·         Even with fewer shots, for improving facial asymmetry and achieving the desired lifting effect, we proceed with the treatment after thorough design.

·         It's not just about the number of shots; we plan and design exactly which areas to irradiate to create optimal results for you.

The Kkeut Difference 4: Delicate Tip Direction Adjustment

* Precise Tip Direction Setting

Designed with diagonal or upward irradiation, considering facial contours and the direction of gravity.

This guides the energy to act in the direction where lifting is desired,

creating a more natural and definite tightening effect.

Kkeut Clinic is the only clinic that considers the Shrink tip direction during treatment.

* Application of Tilt & Push-up Technique

Instead of simply contacting the tip vertically,

we tilt it and treat by pushing the skin upwards.

During this process, ultrasound coagulation points are formed in an upward direction,

which actually creates a lifting effect where the facial structure is pulled upwards.

Studies have also confirmed that this technique induces statistically significant lifting.

We consider these intricate details, not just focusing on design for its own sake, but treating precisely to ensure you achieve the results envisioned in the design.

The Kkeut Difference 5: 5% Discount per 10 Minutes of Waiting – We Value Your Time

·         At Kkeut Clinic, we value our clients' time, which is why we implement rigorous appointment and waiting time management.

·         In the unavoidable event of a waiting period, we offer a 5% discount for every 10 minutes, respecting and compensating for your valuable time.

The Kkeut Difference 6: Here's how we manage pain from intensity adjustments for optimal results.

Shrink Pain,

is definitively different with our vibration tool.

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) lifting

is inherently accompanied by some degree of pain.

Kkeut Clinic, to reduce even that slight pain,

actively utilizes a vibration tool.

Vibration stimulation reduces the brain's perception of pain

based on the 'Gate Control Theory',

and indeed, many patients

feel that “it definitely hurts less.”

Furthermore,

Kkeut Clinic, based on extensive clinical know-how,

combines various methods to reduce pain.

including treatment angle, irradiation method, and techniques to alleviate tooth vibration.

delicately adjusts even the smallest details.

From the moment you receive treatment to seeing the results,

We design your experience to be as comfortable as possible.

Don't shy away from treatment due to pain.

Less pain, more satisfaction.

That's how Kkeut Clinic performs its treatments.
