Hello.

I am Director Kim Ha-won.

​

For those considering lifting procedures,

one of the most frequently asked questions is this.

Is 300 shots of Shrink enough?

Shrink Universe allows for relatively flexible shot count planning

and energy (intensity) adjustment according to skin condition is also possible,

making it a device that is consistently popular these days as a cost-effective lifting procedure.

However, for those receiving Shrink for the first time,

✅ When does the effect appear?

✅ How long does it last?

✅ What frequency is good for receiving it?

This part can be the most confusing.

And even with the same ‘300 shots’,

there are cases where the results feel different, like

“someone was satisfied” vs “someone was not satisfied”.

Why is there such a difference in results?

The reason is not simply a matter of the number of shots,

👉🏻 skin thickness, elasticity, and direction of sagging,

👉🏻 and how the shots are placed on which areas can also significantly affect the results.

This is why the effectiveness can vary greatly.

💛Shrink Universe

Shrink Universe Lifting is

​

HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound),

a lifting procedure that uses high-intensity focused ultrasound.

​

As interpreted literally,

it focuses ultrasound energy on a single point in the skin to generate intense heat.

​

As this heat is transmitted to the deep SMAS layer,

the tissue contracts, inducing collagen production.

​

As a result, it pulls the skin tight and provides lifting.

You can think of it as similar to focusing sunlight with a magnifying glass to burn paper.

✨300 Shots of Shrink

300 shots of Shrink is the most basic lifting design.

​

Generally, it targets one area of the face,

(around the eyes, deep cheeks, chin, etc.) you can think of it as the minimum number of shots.

​

If the skin elasticity is not too low or for regular lifting maintenance,

300 shots of Shrink may be sufficient.

​

However, if you want to achieve noticeable lifting effects,

and cover the entire face, a design of 600 shots or more is recommended.

​

​

📍Shrink Effects

While Shrink may give an immediate lifting feeling,

the actual effects start to gradually appear after 1-2 weeks.

And the time when collagen regeneration begins in earnest is about 6-9 weeks.

Many people report feeling a definite, refined effect after about 2-3 months.

​

In other words, you should think of Shrink as a

subtle lift that steadily rises and lasts long rather than being surprised by the results immediately after the procedure.

​

​

​

💠Can we enhance the Shrink effects?

Even if you receive the same 300 shots of Shrink,

why do individuals feel differences?

​

The most common reason is that the number of shots and energy intensity, and the procedure design are all different.

​

✔️ If you increase the number of shots a little

✔️ and proceed with a customized design,

​

the maintenance period tends to be longer, and the lifting is also firmer.

​

​

However, it is not necessarily good to have high shots with strong energy,

so it is most important to design the procedure according to your skin condition.

🫧Shrink Universe Frequency

What should be the frequency for Shrink procedures?

To conclude,

it is recommended to receive a total of about 3 times at approximately 1-month intervals in the early stages of treatment.

This is because skin does not have the ability to 'remember and maintain' change with just one stimulus.

For example, JuveLook or Rejuran treatments, which induce collagen production, also typically recommend 3 treatments for a good reason.

The same goes for lifting procedures like Shrink.

Of course, one treatment can definitely show effects, but considering the stability and duration of elasticity recovery, repetitive stimulation more than 3 times is more effective.

​ After the initial 3 treatments,

maintaining the pattern of once every 6 months is the most typical frequency.

​

💥It's not just about the number of shots

Then if I increase the shots and energy a lot, it will last longer, right?

​

You might think so,

but simply increasing the number of shots or strong energy does not necessarily increase the effects.

Instead, excessive settings can lead to

​

🔸 Hollow cheeks

🔸 Burns

🔸 Severe pain

​

as side effects,

and in the long term, can damage the skin's elastic structure.

So what is important is

​setting the energy and depth according to your skin in a customized design.

​

Even with 300 shots of Shrink,

🔹people with thin skin,

🔹people with significantly reduced elasticity,

🔹people with more fat

should all have different design approaches.

​

🎀Summary of Today

✔️ 300 shots of Shrink Universe is localized design.

​

⏱️ The timing of effects starts from 1-2 weeks after treatment, with the most noticeable results at 6-9 weeks.

​

​🧭 The recommended maintenance period is about 6 months, after which regular maintenance treatments are advised.

​

🔁 The recommended cycle for Shrink Universe is initially 3 times at 1-month intervals, followed by once every 6 months.

​

💡 Differences in effects may stem more from the customized design and treatment approach than shot count.

​

Shrink is not just a procedure for pulling.

​

It is a process that induces the skin to regenerate itself and regain elasticity.

​

Therefore, on the contrary,

when you receive treatment, how many times, and in what manner all affect how the results are perceived.

​

If you have felt disappointed with the lifting procedures you have received so far,

​it might be a good idea to reconsider the design tailored to your skin this time.
