HIFU machine for lifting without surgery
The HIFU machine uses high-intensity focused ultrasound to act on the deeper layers of the skin without an incision. We supply models with cartridges at different depths, for face and for body, in configurations for aesthetic clinics and dermatology practices.
With this type of machine the real cost is not the purchase price but the price per session. That depends on the number of shots available on a cartridge and on what replacing the cartridge costs. We check both figures with the manufacturer and put them in the quote before you order.
What happens in practice
HIFU is the category where most of the long-term cost hides in consumables. Two machines with similar list prices can have a cost per session that differs twofold, if one delivers twenty thousand shots per cartridge and the other ten thousand. Quotes that mention only the price of the machine leave you unable to calculate payback.
The second problem is how many depths are covered. A machine with a single cartridge limits the protocols you can sell and forces you to turn down body treatments. The price gap between a two-cartridge and a four-cartridge configuration is usually much smaller than the additional revenue it unlocks.
What we do
For every model we give you the number of shots per cartridge, the price of a replacement cartridge and the resulting cost per session. You choose on those figures rather than on the price printed on the first page of a quote.
We recommend the cartridge configuration according to the protocols you sell, face only or face and body. The price covers the machine, transport, assembly and protocol training, with starting parameters by depth and phototype. We order replacement cartridges from the manufacturer, and we take service requests ourselves.
