Skin Tightening in Myeongdong, Seoul

Non-invasive skin tightening with HIFU, RF and lifting lasers to firm the jawline and cheeks, smooth fine lines and improve elasticity without surgery.

What is skin tightening? Skin tightening is a group of non-invasive treatments that use energy, such as high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) or radiofrequency (RF), to heat the deeper layers of the skin and stimulate new collagen. This firms loose skin, improves elasticity and defines the jawline and cheeks with little or no downtime. At Kleam Clinic Myeongdong, popular options include Shurink (Korean HIFU), RF lifting and lifting lasers, with Shurink from ₩99,000.

How it works

How skin tightening works

As we age, collagen and elastin in the skin decline and the skin becomes less firm. Skin tightening devices deliver controlled energy below the surface to reverse part of this. Shurink, often called Korean Ultherapy, uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to reach the deeper lifting layers, which is ideal for jawline and cheek tightening.

RF (radiofrequency) lifting gently heats the skin to improve elasticity and smooth fine lines, and lifting lasers stimulate collagen for firmer, glowing skin. The skin often looks tighter soon after treatment, and the effect continues to build over the following weeks as new collagen forms. Your doctor will recommend one device or a combination, such as a laser and RF treatment for the full face, depending on your skin and goals.
