HIFU

IUB_2_工作區域 1.png

  • Intense Ultrasound beam array is delivered simultaneously via 7 transducers, causing the formation of 3-D cylindrica thermal zones at the mid-dermis. Studies have demonstrated a significant lifting effect following the tissue coagulation of the mid-dermis

​

  • The SofCool feedback-controlled skin cooling via unique thermo-cooled direct contact transducers provides optimal epidermal protection and patient comfort

IUB_3_工作區域 1.png

  • High volume coverage (A single Sofwave pulse = 7 HIFU transducer lines), resulting in high percentage of tissue coagulation, fast treatment time and significantly lower procedure costs

​​

  • Solid state transducer have no moving parts or water leakage. More robust and lower maintenance costs

Hifu_工作區域 1.png

  • A HIFU focused beam is created by a dish-shaped transducer that moves along a line causing fractional pinpoint injuries at the focal points
     

  • The thermal injury is an elongated column perpendicular to the skin, which may work well for deep injury, but carries risk of damaging the epidermal layer while treating middermis, due to the elongated thermal zone lying perpendicular to the skin surface

​

  • No epidermal protection

Hi-fu_2_工作區域 1.png

  • Small size of thermal coagulation points (TPZ) require numerous lines to achieve desired coverage, which prolongs treatment time and patient discomfort

​​

  • Moving transducer in a water environment are more prone to failure and leakage. Limited shelf life

Coverage

Sofwave_Print_03.png

7 high power transducer operating simultaneously >25% tissue coverage in one treatment, resulting in high percentage of collagen contraction with subsequent neo collagenesis and neo elastogenesis Delivery more energy with a broader impact than any competitor

Hi-fu_3_工作區域 1.png

Small size of TCPs require numerous lines to achieve desired coverage, which results in a lengthy procedure time and patient discomfort

Treatment Depth

  • Localized at depths of 0.5-2mm, with the treatment centered at 1.5mm
    ​

  • Studies have demonstrated a significant lifting effect following tissue coagulation of the mid dermis

  • 1.5mm, 3.0mm, 4.5mm
     

  • HIFU transducers targeting various depths, including deeper subcutaneous layers that create potential safety issues

Intangible

  • Novel, next-gen ultrasound technology
     

  • 2 FDA and CE approved

​

  • Based on solid clinical research
     

  • Significant media buzz already generated in US
     

  • Safer, faster and better results. High patient satisfaction

  • Old technology

​

  • Has been around for over 15 years
     

  • Declining reputation due to numerous copycats with questionable safety and efficacy record

Return on Inventory (ROI)

  • Solid-state transducers have no moving parts and are more robust and reliable
     

  • Short procedure time (30 to 45 minutes) for 250 to 300 lines

Transducer design is prone to mechanical failure (moving parts) and leakage (rupture of membrane, mishandling). Limited shelf life

​

  • High consumable costs for multiple transducer lines (500 to 900)
     

  • Long treatment time (60 to 90 minutes)
     

  • Time-consuming patient preparation
     

  • Delegating treatment may not be appropriate
