How long do Shurink results last, and what determines it?

We advise that Shurink results last about 3 to 6 months. Shurink Universe is treated as one course of 3 to 5 or more sessions at one-month intervals, and the timing of the next treatment is decided based on how long the changes last after the course is complete. Even with the same number of sessions, how long the results last varies with skin thickness, degree of sagging, and lifestyle habits.

Why are Shurink results considered to last 3 to 6 months?

Shurink Universe is a treatment that focuses ultrasound at a set depth within the skin to create small thermal coagulation points, guiding collagen production while those spots heal. Because the amount of collagen produced by a single heat stimulus is not large, the treatment is carried out by building up sessions at one-month intervals.

At our Suwon clinic, we consider Shurink Universe results to last about 3 to 6 months, and taking skin condition and individual differences into account, the baseline is at least 3 to 5 or more sessions at one-month intervals. If you judge before completing the sessions, the results may feel short-lived.

Factors that determine how long Shurink results last

The thickness of the skin and fat layer is the first factor. If the skin is very thin, the depth at which heat can be delivered is limited, and if the fat in the cheeks and jawline is thick, the extent of change from ultrasound alone is small, so the change may seem to fade quickly. When sagging has progressed considerably in the deep layers, the results from the same number of sessions may also last a shorter time.

Lifestyle habits also have an effect. UV exposure, smoking, and large weight changes over a short period can speed up the loss of collagen. Consistently moisturizing and using sun protection after treatment, and taking antioxidants such as vitamin C, may help.

When should I get my next Shurink?

We decide by appearance rather than by date. Comparing with photos taken before starting the course under the same lighting and angle, we consider maintenance treatment when sagging of the jawline and cheeks starts to become visible again. If the cause of sagging lies in fat or the deep fascial layer, we also decide at this point whether to plan a treatment that addresses a different layer.

After treatment, warmth, tingling, swelling, redness, and dryness may appear and then soon subside. For about 7 days, avoid heavy drinking, saunas, hot baths, and strenuous exercise. If swelling and pain get worse day by day or a feeling of numbness lasts a long time, please contact the clinic.

FAQ

Q. How long do the results last if I get Shurink only once?

A. You may feel a change after just one session, but because little collagen builds up, the results may feel short-lived. We treat 3 to 5 or more sessions at one-month intervals as one course and judge how long the results last based on your appearance after completing the course.

Q. If I increase the number of Shurink shots, will the results last longer?

A. It is hard to say that the duration increases in proportion to the number of shots. What matters is delivering the shots evenly at the right depth and with the right handpiece for the sagging areas, and the number of shots is decided during examination based on facial area and skin thickness.

Q. What should I do if Shurink results feel short-lived?

A. We first check the number of sessions and intervals you received, then look again at whether the cause of sagging lies in fat or the deep layers. Depending on the cause, we decide again in consultation whether to adjust the intervals or combine other treatments that address the fat layer and dermis.
