MEDICUBE High Focus Shot — Appareil Lifting Ultrasonique

This home device brings advanced dermatological technology into your bathroom. Unlike serums, it works through physical energy — not molecules.

MFU Technology (Micro-Focused Ultrasound)Micro-focused ultrasounds penetrate the deep layers of the dermis to generate targeted heat. This thermal increase stimulates the formation of new fibers of collagen and elastin — the mechanism behind the gradual tightening of sagging tissues.

Multi-Wavelength LED Phototherapy5 programmable light spectra (violet 390-455nm, blue 455-492nm, green 492-577nm, orange 597-622nm, red 622-780nm). Each wavelength targets a distinct cellular mechanism: blue regulates sebum secretion, red boosts elasticity, green improves dermal volume.

Regulated Thermal DistributionAn automatic dot scanning system distributes MFU energy evenly. You avoid localized overheating — the device stops diffusion if contact with the epidermis is not optimal.

☀️ Morning routine

1. On clean, dry skin, apply a generous layer of Age-R Booster conductive gel to the targeted area
2. Remove jewelry and metal accessories
3. Hold the power button for 2-3 seconds to turn on the device
4. Select your intensity level (1 to 5) — always start at level 1 the first few times
5. Perform 600-1200 shots, avoiding going over the same spot twice
6. Apply your usual serum and cream after use

🌙 Recommended frequency

1. 1 to 2 sessions per week maximum
2. Never use on irritated, damaged skin or after recent aesthetic procedures
3. Avoid absolutely: eye contour, lips, Adam’s apple, nasal cartilage, jawbone

The High Focus Shot is designed for specific profiles — it is not a daily maintenance device but a weekly remodeling tool.

• Sagging oval face or emerging jowls : you notice sagging in the lower third of the face, a loss of jawline definition
• Decreased elasticity after age 30 : your skin takes longer to regain its firmness after pinching, you feel the beginning of ptosis
• Defined neck or double chin : clinically proven area for this type of device according to tests performed
• Fans of at-home technological skincare : you want to space out your in-clinic HIFU sessions (not replace them) or maintain results between appointments

⚠️ To avoid if

• Metal implants, pacemaker, active thyroid disorders
• Pregnancy or breastfeeding
• Severe inflammatory acne, open wounds, eczema flare-ups
• Less than 6 weeks after an invasive dermatological procedure

The results of a home MFU device follow a different kinetic than cosmetics: you won't see an instant transformation, but a cumulative improvement.

From the first session : slight immediate firmness sensation due to the temporary thermal contraction of tissues — an effect that fades within a few hours.

After 4 to 6 weeks of regular use : the oval face shape gradually redefines, the jawline becomes sharper. This is the neocollagenesis phase: fibroblasts synthesize new structural fibers.

At 8-12 weeks : visible improvement of moderate sagging, firming of the neck. Users report a natural lifting effect, without the stiffness of surgical intervention.

Warning: this device does not replace a medical HIFU in a clinic (higher intensity, deeper penetration). It is a complementary maintenance treatment.

What is the difference compared to a HIFU in a dermatology clinic?

Clinical devices deliver a significantly higher ultrasound intensity (up to 4.5mm depth vs. ~3mm for the High Focus Shot) and require medical training. The MEDICUBE device offers a safe home version, less powerful but usable independently. You can think of it as maintenance between two professional sessions.

Why is conductive gel mandatory?

MFU technology requires a conductive medium to transmit the ultrasounds. Without gel, the energy does not penetrate properly and you risk superficial burns from friction. Use only MEDICUBE’s Age-R Booster or PDRN Booster gel — other gels may alter wave diffusion.

How long does a full session last?

Between 10 and 20 minutes depending on the treated area. For a full face (cheeks, jawline, neck), plan about 1000 shots — the device emits a sound with each pulse, and you can track your count via the AGE-R app connected by Bluetooth.

Can I use the 5 LED modes at the same time as the MFU?

Yes, the LEDs operate simultaneously with the ultrasonic treatment. Choose your color based on your goal: violet to boost gel active absorption, blue for enlarged pores, green for volume, orange for radiance, red for elasticity. Change the shade via the app or directly on the device.

What should I do if I feel intense heat?

A slight warmth is normal — it indicates the ultrasounds are penetrating. If it becomes painful, immediately lower the intensity level or stop the session. Make sure the device head is flat against your skin (no air bubbles under the gel) and that you haven’t passed over the same spot multiple times.

Is the device compatible with other gels or serums?

No. MEDICUBE specifies that only their Age-R conductive gels are formulated for this technology. Using other products voids the warranty and may damage the cartridge’s protective film — if this film is torn, the device must be returned to customer service.

MEDICUBE was founded in 2009 by South Korean dermatology experts with a clear mission: to translate clinical protocols into products accessible to the general public. The brand positions itself in the "cosmeceutical" segment — the hybrid zone between cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

All devices in the AGE-R range (including the High Focus Shot) are developed and manufactured in South Korea. Vertical integration allows for strict quality control: each device undergoes dermatological testing before shipment. MEDICUBE received the Best K-Beauty Brand recognition at the 2025 Cosmopolitan Readers' Choice Awards and counts celebrities like Hailey Bieber, Kylie Jenner, and K-pop idol Sakura (LE SSERAFIM) among its users.

The High Focus Shot is part of the brand's "technology democratization" strategy: making advanced dermatological care accessible at home, without the cost or hassle of clinic appointments.

Discover the entire MEDICUBE range

This device does not use chemical ingredients — it operates exclusively through the emission of physical energy. Here is the technical composition of the device:

MFU diffusion system : micro-focused ultrasound cartridge with protective film (to be checked before each use — any tear requires immediate stoppage).

Multi-spectral LED module : 5 light-emitting diodes covering wavelengths from 390 to 780 nanometers.

Bluetooth connectivity : synchronization with the AGE-R app to adjust intensity, LED color, sound volume, and track the total number of shots.

Rechargeable battery : battery life varies depending on the intensity used. Some users report more frequent recharging compared to other devices in the range (e.g., Booster Pro).

Conductive gel required (not included) : the device requires separate purchase of Age-R Booster gel or PDRN Booster gel. These gels contain moisturizing agents and conductive agents specifically formulated to optimize ultrasound transmission.

Weight: 270g. Manufacturer's warranty: 12 months from the shipping date (manufacturing defects only, excluding misuse).
