Clarius is the only handheld with a fan, enabling extended scanning beyond an hour for longer procedures

No. Now 30% lighter than previous generations, Clarius’ 3rd generation scanners match competitive models’ weight within 100 grams while maintaining superior Aesthetics imaging capabilities.

Purpose-built for aesthetic precision: the L20’s 1-4 cm depth range perfectly focuses on facial anatomy where you do not need additional depth, while the L15 handles both facial and body imaging with depths up to 7 cm where you can focus on the detail required for both invasive and non-invasive cosmetic medicine.

Yes. Frequency directly determines resolution: higher frequency means finer detail at superficial depths. That matters most for facial aesthetics and injectable guidance, since the anatomy involved (facial vasculature, superficial fillers, periocular structures) sits close to the skin surface, exactly the depth range higher-frequency probes are built to resolve. High ultrasound frequencies are also ideal for imaging the skin, and monitoring the effectiveness of treatments  at the skin level. A peer-reviewed comparison study found the highest-frequency device tested also rated highest for overall image quality, including for filler and artery imaging specifically, which is why frequency tracks so closely with image quality ratings in this use case.

No. Most facial aesthetic and body contouring procedures fall within the depth range of a single linear probe. Curved arrays are typically built for a 2 to 5 MHz range with depth up to 24 cm, meant for deep abdominal-style imaging, which has no real application in facial aesthetics or fat transfer. Our versatile linear L15 probe can cover facial injectable work and plastic surgery applications without switching devices.

Weight differences of a few tens of grams between handheld probes are unlikely to meaningfully affect fatigue or precision during a typical scan. Cable-free, wireless design has a larger practical impact on ergonomics than incremental weight reduction.
