Dual-type HIFU Device

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2207E02] Liftera is a dual-type HIFU device, fitted with two types of applicators: line-type; and pen- type — and it is characterized by the fact that dual application can be performed according to curved facial contours.


It enables application according to the facial contours by using the same line-type as the general HIFU procedure and a pen with an 8mm radius.
The pen-type in particular, can quickly irradiate 10Hz concentrated ultrasonic waves into the skin layer at a consistent depth, thus reducing procedure time and pain, and ultimately enabling comfortable procedures and a quick return to daily life.


A spokesperson from the manufacturer ASTERASYS commented, “With the advent of advanced medical services and smart medical devices, a new concept of the medical services market is growing rapidly. We actually promoted Liftera eyebrow lifting through an exhibition held in Korea last year, based on concentrated technology, and we will continuously engage in various promotional activities so that it can position itself as a device leading K-beauty.”

General-purpose Electrosurgical Instrument
Futera Dots applies minimal ablative technology that uses RF energy to heat tissues and stimulate subdermal collagen production to reduce fine wrinkles and loosen skin. This system induces tissue remodeling and production of new collagen and elastin.


ASTERASYS advances human health, based on cutting-edge development of technologies.


In 2018, ASTERASYS launched its four Liftera series, three Futera series, three skincare devices, and two body composition analyzers — as well as other medical equipment for hospitals, and skincare devices for beauty care clinics and salons.


ASTERASYS offers one-stop solutions from in-house development of manufacturing through a technology research institute, supplying high-quality products to each of its customers. In addition to investing heavily in developing academic and marketing materials, and human resources, ASTERASYS strives to earn the trust of its expanding customer base to assure an improved quality of life by committing significant resources to R&D within its healthcare and biomedical sectors.

Non-invasive HIFU Face Lifting Equipment

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2207E01] Newpong’s Sonoqueen is a non-invasive face lifting device that uses HIFU technology with a high-quality transducer. HIFU is delivered to the dermal layer and to the SMAS layer, respectively. Heat, ranging from 60 to 70 degrees C, creates thermal coagulation, which rejuvenates tired collagen and induces neocollagenesis.


Sonoqueen delivers micro-focused ultrasound energy to dermal and SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System) layers in a non-invasive way using HIFU technology for face lifting, skin tightening and wrinkle treatment.


The advantages through the use of the system include lowest pain level, effective and immediate results, and eye cartridge for peri-orbital area treatment.

Ultrasound Stimulator
The SONOCARE system delivers 1.8 nanometer of mechanical amplitude with 10MHz to the epidermis and dermis layers. It redistributes GAG (glycosaminoglycan) for good moisturizing and controls cytokine release for cell regeneration without tissue damage.


The main advantages of the system include safest treatment for face and body, combined treatment available, pain and swelling management after surgical procedures, and no consumables.


The system’s operating time is 30 minutes maximum.


Newpong Co., Ltd. is a developer and manufacturer of ultrasound therapeutic and surgical equipment. The company’s president explained, “For more than 10 years, we have dedicated ourselves to the aesthetic market, concentrating on ultrasound technology. We launched LSSA which is an ultrasound lipolysis device in 2021, and will expand our market globally in 2022. We believe that our small actions are making new waves in the medical aesthetic market, so we are committing all our efforts to ensuring the superior quality of our ultrasound devices and services.”

Korea develops ultrasound-guided HIFU apparatus for 1st time in its history

As many as 300,000 Korean patients of uterine myoma are expected to take the opportunity to receive treatment quickly and effectively with local equipment from this year.

Alpinion Medical Systems, a company specializing in ultrasound medical devices and a subsidiary of Iljin Group, said last year that it has developed a treatment apparatus utilizing High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) and has recently given final permission of medical appliances in the manufacturing list by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.

Some Korean companies including Alpinion and Samsung Medison have already developed and sold ‘ultrasound imaging apparatus’ for diagnosis of diseases but this is the first time for Korea to develop the HIFU apparatus which needs far higher technical skills with local technology. About 20 medical device manufacturers around the world tried to develop the HIFU apparatus but a few global companies such as GE and Philips succeeded in releasing the product on the market because of high technical barriers.

The product can get rid of tumors from diseased areas of a uterine myoma patient, which helps the reduction of unnecessary total hysterectomy. In particular, Alpinion has raised anticipations of possible time and cost savings as it applied ultrasound-guided method instead of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)- guided method used by most of its competitors.
