Many people look into jawline lifting due to concerns about a sagging jawline that makes it look like a double chin.

Among lifting procedures, Ultherapy and Shurink are the two most frequently compared options.

Both procedures use high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) technology to deliver thermal energy to the deep layers of the skin.

This process simultaneously induces collagen regeneration and tissue contraction.

Ultherapy is equipment that has been used in the HIFU lifting field for a long time.

It is characterized by a long history of accumulated clinical data.

Shurink is a HIFU device developed in Korea, operating on a similar principle to Ultherapy.

Many people choose it because it can be accessed at a relatively reasonable cost.

As Shurink is released by several brands, the equipment used may vary by clinic.

When considering jawline lifting, it's difficult to judge the difference between the two devices by price alone.

You need to consider the type of tip, treatment depth, pain level, and recovery period in detail.

Both devices use tips of various depths, including 4.5mm, 3.0mm, 2.0mm, and 1.5mm.

Deeper layers reach the SMAS layer for firm lifting effects, while shallower layers focus on improving surface elasticity.

The jawline area is close to bones and nerves, so tip selection and adjustment of treatment intensity are crucial.

As the fat layer in this area is relatively thin, a meticulous approach is needed to prevent side effects like hollowing of the cheeks.

The area under the jaw is where sagging often begins, so an accurate diagnosis must precede treatment.

While pain varies by individual, Ultherapy often involves setting a stronger treatment intensity than Shurink.

However, recently, there has been an increasing trend of performing Shurink with higher intensity as well.

Downtime is relatively short for both procedures.

Even if there is swelling or redness, it usually subsides within a day or two, and bruising is uncommon.

The extent of swelling may vary depending on the treated area and intensity.

Lifting effects tend to appear gradually over 3 months rather than immediately after the procedure.

This is because the process of new collagen generation and rearrangement is required.

The number of sessions and treatment cycles are also important criteria for judgment.

If you received a high-intensity treatment at once, it's advisable to allow a generous interval until the next session.

You can also choose to receive multiple treatments with lower intensity.

It is safer to adhere to recovery periods rather than undergoing excessively strong treatments too frequently.

It is difficult to definitively say whether Ultherapy or Shurink is better for jawline lifting.

It is advisable to choose by considering the degree of sagging, budget, and pain tolerance together.

Rather than deciding based solely on price, an initial diagnosis of your skin condition should precede.

Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic's Precise Design Protocol

At Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic, before proceeding with jawline lifting, the design is always carried out with the patient in a seated position.

This is because if drawn while lying down, the sagging lines vary according to gravity.

Drawing while seated accurately reflects the lines as they appear when standing.

Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic uses 4.5mm main tips as well as 3.0mm, 2.0mm, and 1.5mm tips, changing them as appropriate for the situation.

For areas with uneven thickness, like the jawline, it is difficult to achieve uniform results with just one type of tip.

During this process, the positions of nerves and blood vessels are also considered to ensure a safe treatment area.

Results Only Possible at Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic

When performing Ultherapy, Kkeut Korean Medicine Clinic precisely targets the SMAS layer by finely adjusting the tip's angle.

Since the procedure is performed while observing a real-time ultrasound screen, energy can be precisely delivered to the desired depth.

Even if you choose Shurink, Ggeut Oriental Medical Clinic increases the intensity to Ultherapy levels as needed.

It offers a flexible option for those who want to consider both budget and effectiveness.

Please note in advance that even for the same Shurink procedure, the perceived effect may vary depending on the intensity setting.

After the procedure, Ggeut Oriental Medical Clinic creates and shares a lifting card detailing the tip types used, treatment lines, and number of shots performed that day.

When determining the timing of the next jawline lifting, previous records can be used as a basis, increasing the accuracy of repeated procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. When getting a jawline lift, should I choose Ultherapy or Shurink?

A. The jawline lifting effect itself is similar for both devices, as they are both based on the HIFU principle. If you have severe sagging or prioritize long-standing clinical data, you might consider Ultherapy. If you prefer frequent treatments at a reasonable cost, Shurink could be an option.

Q. How long do the effects of a jawline lift last?

A. The duration of jawline lift effects varies depending on the individual's skin age and degree of sagging, but generally, the effects last for about 6 months to 1 year.

Q. Is a jawline lift very painful?

A. Jawline lift pain can vary depending on the intensity and area of treatment, as well as individual pain threshold. Applying anesthetic cream beforehand can significantly reduce discomfort.

Q. When can I resume daily activities after a jawline lift?

A. Jawline lifts generally have a short downtime, allowing you to return to daily life on the same day as the procedure. However, it's best to avoid heat-inducing activities like saunas or strenuous exercise for a few days after the procedure.
