HIFU lifting tailored to each patient's skin — natural firming, layer by layer.
"With focused ultrasound, where you place each shot and how deep you go is what determines the final lift. The result depends on the operator's anatomical understanding."
— Dr. Choi Dong-Il, Director
HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) delivered non-invasively at a precise depth in the skin.
Shurink delivers high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) non-invasively into specific depths of the skin. It reaches the same SMAS-level target as Ulthera — long considered the standard among non-surgical lifting devices.
Compared with earlier HIFU systems, discomfort is reduced and the lifting effect is enhanced. A range of cartridges is used to match each patient's skin thickness and condition.

Energy reaches the SMAS layer for a meaningful structural lift.
Shorter procedure time means less discomfort overall.
Four common situations in which Shurink tends to be the right fit.
Sagging skin and
lost firmness from aging
An uneven facial contour
that needs to be evened out
A single-session
lifting result
A treatment matched
to your skin thickness
Where the focused ultrasound is delivered, and at what depth, is what determines the lift. The same Shurink device produces different outcomes depending on the operator's anatomical understanding and technique. Gangnam Seoyon's approach — careful skin-layer assessment and precise placement — supports a natural lift that holds without hollowing the cheek.
Strong ultrasound stimulates collagen at depth, while bidirectional delivery shortens treatment time and reduces overall discomfort.
Gangnam Seoyon makes active use of the 3.0 and 4.5 mm cartridges for deeper penetration. Accurate skin-layer assessment is what separates a routine treatment from a meaningful result.
The same Shurink hardware can produce very different outcomes depending on the operator's anatomical understanding and technique.
Accurate skin-layer assessment and careful placement support a natural lift, with firmness restored without hollowing the cheek.
At each thermal coagulation point, the surrounding tissue contracts and remodels — producing an upward pull that creates the lifting effect.
Targets fine lines and surface texture in the most superficial layer of skin.
A dedicated cartridge for the thinner, more delicate skin around the eyes.
The 3.0 mm cartridge places thermal coagulation points deeper in the upper dermis. Used actively at Gangnam Seoyon for stronger penetration.
The 4.5 mm cartridge reaches the SMAS layer for the strongest structural lifting effect.
Bidirectional treatment mode — collagen stimulation at depth with a shorter procedure time.
The 3.0 and 4.5 mm cartridges are used actively here for deeper penetration than a routine HIFU treatment.
A non-invasive treatment, with no formal recovery period and same-day return to daily activity.

Every treatment begins with a personal consultation with the surgeon.
Gangnam Seoyon uses only authentic medical-grade devices.
Cartridge selection and depth are tuned to each face individually.
Each patient is offered a private recovery room after treatment.
Videos on Shurink are coming soon.
Every inquiry is reviewed personally by Director Choi Dong-Il.
