Older HIFU designs can create a long cigar shaped zone of heat under the skin. Because it is long and narrow, heat can spill into layers you do not want to treat. This can feel sharper and may lead to more swelling with no extra benefit.
CFU ÈLife creates a small precise egg shaped point of heat at the exact depth your practitioner selects. The energy is placed where it is needed and not where it is not needed. This helps deliver a firming effect with better comfort and consistent results.
Precise egg shaped focus versus older cigar shaped focus. Presented at IMCAS Bangkok 2024 by Dr Gregoris, showing 50% improved results with greater comfort.
