When does the shrink effect really begin? A complete overview of Universe, Eye Shrink, 300 shots, and 400 shots.

My face is losing elasticity
There were times when I was afraid to take pictures because of my sagging lines.
“Should I try a lifting?”
I came to know about Shrink, which is often seen on SNS.

 

When will the shrink effect appear?
Would 300 shots be enough?
What's the difference between Universe and Ice Shrink?'

These questions were swirling around in my head.
I also received counseling and experienced it myself.

 

To conclude,
“It is a gradual process rather than an immediate change, and there is a significant difference depending on the number of shots, area, and skin condition.”
That is, after a few days, you will say, “Wow, it’s different!”

 

 

 

What is shrinking?

 

Shrink is a lifting treatment that uses HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) technology.
Ultrasound energy is delivered intensively from the dermis layer to the superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) layer.
It creates a thermal coagulation point, which causes the skin tissue to contract and become pulled.
Afterwards, collagen regeneration is naturally induced.

 

Better than general laser or high frequency lifting
Going deep 'Pulls from the inside out' I have a strong feeling.

How long does the shrink effect really take?

 

Immediately after the procedure There is a slightly tense feeling from the beginning,

Between 2 and 4 weeks I felt my facial lines being organized.

Based on medical data If it lasts for 3 to 6 months It says there are a lot of them.

 

300 shots As a standard, about 2 to 3 months,
'Over 600 shots' There is also data that shows that it can last for 4 to 6 months or longer.

 

In other words, if the number of shots is high and the skin condition is good, the effect may last longer.

 

 

 

Version differences such as Universe and Eye Shrink

 

• Eye Shrink : For thin skin around the eyes, 2mm deep cartridge, etc. Suitable for fine wrinkles and sagging around the eyes.

 

• Shrink Universe : It is composed of a variety of shots and tip types compared to the basic shrink, so it is often used for the purpose of ‘+α lifting.’

 

Even though the versions are different, the principle is the same!

The combination of depth control and number of shots is important.

 

 

300 shots vs. 400 shots vs. more: Why does the number of shots matter?

 

300 shots are usually for partial area improvement.

It's suitable when you have a little cheek fat and want to just organize the lines.

 

If it's over 400 shots, it feels like it's taking care of the entire facial contour and elasticity. 

This is when the “jawline, cheeks, and cheekbones” are treated together.

 

but It's not like 'the more shots you have, the more effective it will be'. What matters are energy output, cartridge depth, skin type, and the skill of the practitioner.

 

Depth varies from cartridge to cartridge!

 

 

Side Effects, Precautions, and Realistic Stories

 

There may be swelling or bruising.
Some hospitals say that there are 'almost no bruises', but areas with a lot of fat or thick fat layer have a higher chance of bruising and swelling.

 

Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, and drinking alcohol immediately after the procedure.

To maintain the effects, you should take care to moisturize and block UV rays for 2-3 days after the procedure.

 

 

What is the procedure and cost of shrink treatment?

 

Consultation → Anesthesia ointment → Ultrasound gel application → Procedure (about 15-20 minutes) → Recovery

 

 

Costs vary greatly depending on the hospital, number of shots, and area.
Some companies provide pricing based on 400-500 shots for the entire face.

 

 

Maintenance period, how can I manage it to make it last longer?

 

Basically, it is common to maintain it for 3 to 6 months.

To extend the maintenance period

 

• Sufficient moisturizing care
• UV protection + antioxidant routine
• Periodic retouch (every 6-12 months)

The back is important.

 

 

 

Who would benefit from shrinking?

 

• People with a lot of fat and sagging facial features
• Those who need to improve their cheeks, double chin, and jawline
• People with sagging skin and sagging facial lines
• Those who want a short recovery time and minimal disruption to daily life

 

On the contrary,

People with little facial fat and concerns about sagging cheeks need to be careful!

Rather than sagging, it may cause dents.

 

 

 

conclusion

 

Shrink is not a “one-hit bomb effect” but rather
“A treatment that slowly pulls the skin from the inside out and gradually refines the lines.” are you.

The effects vary depending on the number of shots, area, and skin condition.
Management and routines determine the duration of maintenance.

 

I also felt the change from the beginning, thinking, “Did you lose some facial fat?”
I remember being satisfied with how my jawline looked cleaner when I compared the photos.

If you are considering lifting, it is worth getting a consultation.
