Shurink Universe Cost in Korea

Medically reviewed by Kim Yunseok, CEO / Representative Director · Last updated July 2026

Understanding the Shurink Universe cost in Korea starts with knowing how the treatment is structured. Shurink Universe is a customized ultrasound lifting treatment that uses seven specialized tips, allowing a practitioner to target different skin depths and facial areas. At DERNA Clinic in Seocho-gu, Seoul, pricing is based on 100-shot units, with each option — Derma, Eye, or Ultra (linear) — priced separately depending on the tip used. This page explains what typically affects the final price, who the treatment suits, and what to expect during and after a session.

What Shurink Universe is

Shurink Universe is an ultrasound-based skin tightening treatment designed to stimulate collagen in the deeper layers of the skin. Unlike single-purpose ultrasound devices, it offers multiple tip options so a provider can adjust depth and intensity depending on the treatment area — for example, finer settings around the eyes versus firmer settings along the jawline or cheeks. Because the device is modular, cost and shot count vary depending on which combination of tips and areas a patient requires.

Who it suits

This treatment is generally considered by adults who notice early to moderate skin laxity, mild sagging along the jawline or cheeks, or a loss of facial definition that has developed gradually with age. It may also appeal to patients who want a non-surgical option before considering more invasive procedures. Suitability always depends on an individual assessment, since skin thickness, elasticity, and treatment goals differ from person to person.

Who should avoid it

Ultrasound lifting treatments are not appropriate for everyone. Patients with active skin infections, open wounds, or significant inflammation in the treatment area are typically advised to wait until the skin has healed. Pregnant individuals, people with certain autoimmune conditions, or those with implanted medical devices in the treatment area should discuss their history carefully with a doctor beforehand. Because Shurink Universe uses focused ultrasound energy, a consultation helps confirm whether a person's skin condition and medical background make them a reasonable candidate.

How the session goes

A typical visit begins with a consultation where the treating doctor evaluates the skin and discusses which tip or combination of tips is appropriate. The skin is cleansed, and depending on the clinic's protocol, a topical numbing cream may be applied to reduce discomfort. The doctor then applies the ultrasound device in a grid-like pattern across the treatment area. Patients often describe a warming or tingling sensation as the energy reaches the target layer. Session length depends on the number of shots and areas treated, since more shots naturally extend the appointment.

Downtime and recovery

Most patients experience mild redness or warmth in the treated area immediately afterward, which usually settles within a few hours. Some people notice slight tenderness or temporary swelling for a day or two. Because Shurink Universe is non-surgical, there is generally no extended downtime, and many patients return to regular activities the same day. That said, individual recovery varies, and some people may notice more visible redness or sensitivity than others depending on skin type and the settings used. Visible lifting or tightening effects tend to develop gradually over several weeks as collagen remodeling continues, and results are not identical for every patient.

Pricing

At DERNA Clinic, Shurink Universe is priced at 69,000 KRW per 100 shots. This unit-based pricing means the final cost depends on how many shots are needed for the treatment area and which tip type — Derma, Eye, or Ultra — is selected. A patient treating a small area such as the under-eye region will typically require fewer shots than someone addressing the full lower face or jawline, which affects the overall total. Because every face is different, the exact shot count is determined during consultation rather than fixed in advance.

It is worth noting that quoted amounts may not include VAT, and consultation fees can vary depending on the scope of assessment required. Patients are encouraged to confirm the full breakdown, including any additional numbing or aftercare items, before starting treatment. Shurink Universe cost in Korea can also differ between clinics based on device settings, staff experience, and the number of tips used, so comparing like-for-like packages is useful when researching options.

Safety

Shurink Universe is administered by DERNA Clinic's medical staff, which includes doctors with backgrounds in orthopedic surgery, otolaryngology, and general medical practice, among other specialties listed on the clinic's staff page. As with any energy-based skin treatment, results and side effects vary between individuals, and no outcome can be guaranteed. Following pre- and post-treatment instructions provided by the treating doctor — such as sun protection and avoiding excessive heat exposure for a short period — can support comfortable healing. Patients with concerns about sensitivity, allergies, or prior skin treatments should raise these during consultation so the doctor can adjust the approach accordingly.
