Exion Price in Ireland: New and Used BTL Machine

A new BTL Exion lists at about €95,000, and our researched used range is €9,000 to €73,000, according to our machine page figures. The running cost is €60 per treatment against a typical clinic price of €350, which leaves about €290 of gross margin per session before staff, rent and finance.

How much does a BTL Exion cost?

The detail is on the BTL Exion machine page. These are researched ranges, not one seller's asking price, and none of them is a quote.

Why is the used Exion price range so wide?

The top of the used range is about 77% of the new list price, while the bottom is under a tenth. Those two ends describe very different purchases, so do not treat the middle as a fair price. Ask what separates them.

• Applicators included. Our page notes that applicator tips are single-use and proprietary. A console with a full set of applicators is a different proposition from one with a single handpiece.
• Warranty. Per our page, manufacturer warranty transfers only with BTL's agreement. A low price with no transferable cover carries risk you should price in.
• Age and software. Older units may not run current treatment options. Ask what version it is on.
• Seller type. A dealer unit with a stated warranty and training should cost more than one sold by a closed clinic.

If a seller is asking close to the new price, ask why you should not buy new with full cover and finance.

How many treatments does it take to pay back an Exion?

Using only the figures above, a gross margin of €290 per treatment gives these rough numbers of treatments before the machine price is covered:

This is deliberately crude. It ignores staff time, rent, marketing, insurance, finance and the cost of a treatment room, and it assumes every session sells at the typical price. Use it to compare options against each other, not to forecast profit.

The cost-per-treatment line also moves with the product mix. Our page gives a single figure of €60, so confirm applicator prices in writing with BTL before you rely on it.

Is the Exion cheaper than the EmFace?

The other BTL platform on our site is the EmFace, which is needle-free and positioned as a non-injectable lift. On our figures it lists at about €130,000 new with a used range of €15,000 to €150,000, a cost per treatment of €90 and a price of €500. The Exion is cheaper to buy and to run per session, but sells a different treatment. If you are weighing the two, our EmFace price guide covers the other side, and the Exion vs EmFace comparison puts them head to head.

Training, support and regulatory points

Our page says BTL supports the Exion directly across the UK and Ireland and that BTL certification on the applicators in use is expected. Ask the seller, and then BTL, what training transfers with a used unit. For regulation and insurance, check with the HPRA and your insurer before you treat patients on a new device, because requirements for who may operate it and what cover applies are for them to confirm.

Buying used: a short checklist

1. Ask BTL, not only the seller, whether the unit is registered and whether the warranty can be transferred.
2. Count the applicators and check each one works. They are consumable and proprietary.
3. See the machine power up and run a treatment, ideally with an engineer present.
4. Get the service history and the date of the last service.
5. Agree payment terms that protect you until you have inspected it.

Selling an Exion

If you own one, the used range tells you the market is far from settled, so your own paperwork matters. A seller with the full applicator set, service records and confirmation from BTL on warranty can reasonably ask towards the upper part of the range. You can list it free, with no commission, and the seller guide explains what buyers ask. Our guide to pricing a used machine shows how to set the number.

Prices vary and change quickly, so always get written quotes and inspect any used unit before you pay.

How much does an Exion treatment cost to deliver?

Can the warranty on a used Exion be transferred?

Is the Exion cheaper than the EmFace?

On our figures, yes. The Exion lists at about €95,000 new against about €130,000 for the EmFace, though they offer different treatments.

What is the BTL Exion used for?

A London clinic describes it as combining radiofrequency and targeted ultrasound to heat tissue, with different handpieces for areas such as the abdomen, thighs, neck and jawline. Our machine page describes it as a fractional RF and RF microneedling platform, so ask BTL which applicators your unit supports.

How long does an Exion treatment take?

The same clinic page puts a session at about 30 minutes to an hour, with a series of sessions usually needed for the best outcome. Session length depends on the applicator and area, so confirm protocols with BTL.

Is the Exion FDA cleared?

The clinic page calls it FDA-cleared but does not say what the clearance covers, and we could not verify the detail. Ask BTL for the clearance and regulatory paperwork that applies to your unit, and check with the HPRA and your insurer for Ireland.

How do I sell a used Exion?

Gather the service history, applicator set and written confirmation from BTL on warranty, then list it free with no commission. Sellers with full paperwork can reasonably ask towards the upper part of the used range.
