What Is CFU Elite Medical Fat Reduction?
CFU stands for Central Focused Ultrasound. The device concentrates ultrasound energy at a fixed depth in the subcutaneous fat layer, raising the temperature enough to break down fat cells while the skin surface stays cool and intact.
Once those cells are disrupted, their contents are cleared gradually through the lymphatic system and processed by the liver, which is why the change appears over weeks rather than immediately. Because the energy also warms the dermis, most patients see some skin tightening alongside the fat reduction.
That combination is what separates CFU Elite from cooling-based fat reduction. Where skin has lost a little firmness as well as holding excess fat, treating both in one appointment gives a smoother result than reducing volume alone would.

Benefits of CFU Elite
Fat reduction and skin tightening from one device, without surgery or recovery time.
Reduces fat and tightens together
Heats the fat layer and the dermis in the same pass, so the skin over the treated area firms as the volume reduces.
Visible change from one session
Many patients see a measurable difference after a single appointment, with the result continuing to develop for around twelve weeks.
Precisely targeted
Energy is focused at a set depth, so treatment reaches the fat layer without affecting the skin surface or the muscle beneath.
No incisions or anaesthetic
A non-surgical alternative to liposuction, so there is no scarring and no time away from work.
Areas We Can Treat
CFU Elite is priced by area. Your practitioner will assess how much fat is present and whether skin tightening is part of what you need.
Abdomen
The most requested area, reducing the fat layer across the stomach and firming skin that has stretched.
Upper Arms
Treats the softer fat on the back of the arm and tightens skin that has lost tone.
Thighs
Reduces volume on the inner and outer thigh and improves the smoothness of the overlying skin.
Buttocks
Firms and contours without adding or removing shape, improving the line between the buttock and the thigh.
Decolletage and Upper Chest
Tightens crepey skin and reduces localised fullness across the upper chest.
Flanks
Targets the fat that sits over the waistband and changes how clothing sits at the waist.
Who Is This Treatment Suitable For?
This is a contouring treatment for people already near their target weight. Your practitioner will tell you if it is not the right fit.
Generally Suitable For
Adults close to a stable, healthy weight
Localised fat with some skin laxity above it
Those wanting contouring without surgery
Anyone prepared to wait twelve weeks for the full result
Not Suitable For
Anyone looking for significant weight loss
An existing hernia anywhere in the treatment zone
Metal implants in the treatment area
Pregnancy or breastfeeding

What to Expect
1
Body Assessment
Your practitioner measures the area, assesses fat thickness and skin quality, and confirms your medical history allows ultrasound-based treatment.
2
Mapping and Depth Selection
The treatment area is gridded and the cartridge depth chosen to match your fat layer, so energy is delivered where it will work rather than at a default setting.
3
The Treatment
Energy is delivered line by line across the grid. You will feel deep heat and occasional prickling, which most clients describe as tolerable and which eases between passes.
4
Clearance and Review
The treated fat clears over the following weeks. Your practitioner reviews you at around twelve weeks to measure the change and decide whether a second pass adds value.
Safety, Side Effects and Aftercare
Clinical Safety
Focused ultrasound is depth dependent, so cartridge selection and energy settings are matched to your tissue rather than applied from a template. Every treatment at our Castle Street clinic follows a full medical consultation.
We do not treat over metal implants, hernias or areas of broken skin, and we screen for liver conditions because the body has to process the released fat. If anything in your history gives us pause, we will say so.

Potential Side Effects
Most reactions relate to the heat delivered and settle within days:
Redness and warmth for a few hours
Tenderness or firmness when pressed
Occasional mild bruising or swelling

Essential Aftercare
Drink plenty of water to help clear the treated fat
Stay active and keep moving in the days afterwards
Avoid very hot baths and saunas for 48 hours
Keep your weight stable so the change stays visible
