What to verify before booking

Verify the exact model, manufacturer, Korean authorization record, tip or cartridge, treatment area and practitioner. A brand name and shot count alone do not define energy, depth or risk.

These sources establish device or product identity and the scope of published research. They do not establish the Korean authorization scope of every model, an individual result, a fixed recovery time or superiority over another brand. Current official documentation by Shurink generation and cartridge was insufficient; equivalence to Ultherapy or a cheaper substitute cannot be concluded.
