Quick answer
What Is HIFU Treatment?
HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) concentrates ultrasound energy at a precise depth under the skin, creating tiny thermal coagulation points while leaving the surface intact. The body responds by contracting and remodelling collagen, which firms and lifts the treated area over time.
Cartridges or handpieces are set to different depths – for example the deeper SMAS support layer or the dermis – so the doctor can layer energy where it is needed. HIFU tends to suit structural concerns such as a softening jawline, cheek sagging and a loose under-chin.
BLS Clinic Main Branch offers three focused-ultrasound options: Ultherapy Prime(MFU-V, with real-time imaging), Shurink Universe and 10 Triple. Learn more on the Ultherapy and Shurink pages.

FAQ
HIFU Treatment in Seoul – Frequently Asked Questions
How much is HIFU in Gangnam, Seoul?

Is Ultherapy the same as HIFU?
Ultherapy is a type of focused ultrasound often grouped with HIFU, but it uses MFU-V – micro-focused ultrasound with real-time visualisation – so the practitioner can see the skin layers while treating. Other HIFU devices such as Shurink Universe do not use imaging.
Does HIFU treatment hurt?
HIFU treatment can feel like deep prickling or brief aching, especially over bony areas. Numbing cream and pain-reduction options are available at BLS Clinic Main Branch.
How often can I have HIFU?
Gentler HIFU devices such as Shurink are often repeated every few months, while Ultherapy Prime is usually repeated about once a year. The doctor will suggest a schedule that avoids over-treatment.
Can HIFU make my face look thinner?
HIFU can make the lower face look more defined, and in some people it may slightly reduce fullness. If your face is already slim, the doctor may use gentler settings or a different device.
Can I have HIFU during a short trip to Seoul?
Yes. HIFU usually has no real downtime, so you can continue sightseeing and fly home soon after. Results develop over 1–3 months.
Do the doctors speak English?
Yes. English consultations are available, and you can book on WhatsApp at +82 10-3165-4842. Japanese and Chinese support is also available.
