The Treatment
Body Sculpture brings you the latest advanced cellulite removal treatment system from Switzerland, Acoustic Wave Therapy.
Acoustic Wave Therapy is ideal for:
- Clients with Cellulite
- Clients with loose flabby skin, particularly on arms, legs and tummy
- Mothers wishing to firm up loose tummies and reduce stretch marks
Typically patients are treated twice per week for three weeks, with sessions generally requiring less than a half an hour treatment. Additional treatments may be necessary in a small subset of patients. Patients may wish to have a maintenance session once every five months after completing the program.
Initial clinical study results show that Acoustic Wave Therapy patients typically experience:-
- Improvement in skin texture.
- Improvement in skin elasticity.
- Firming of the skin dermis.
- Circumference reduction.
The Results
82% of patients said they were “happy” or “very happy” with their results from Acoustic Wave Therapy. Additionally 95% of practioners who had treated 10 or more patients were very satisfied with AWT’s results.
Based on clinical experience to date here’s what you can expect:
- 25% of patients see an improvement by their fourth treatment session.
- An additional 25% see noticeable improvement by their sixth session.
- An additional 20% see improvement by the sixth week after treatment.
- The remaining 30% with stage 4 cellulite may require an additional series of treatments to see substantial improvement.
The Science
Acoustic Wave Therapy mechanically vibrates connective tissue in affected areas of the body, improving the skin's appearance by:
- Causing the connective tissue to stretch which increases its elasticity.
- Producing increased vascularisation (the organic process whereby body tissue develops capillaries), ensuring better exchanges to the connective tissue.
- Producing an inflammatory reaction that triggers the release of healing mediators, creating fibroblastic proliferation leading to a new, thickened band of collagen being deposited in the upper and mid portions of the skin.
BEFORE
Enlarged fat cells push the skin up and compress the circulatory system, reducing inflow of nutrients and outflow of waste products. Diminished exchanges in circulation lead to a gradual stiffening of the connective tissue, pulling down on the skin. The push/pull effect creates the appearance of cellulite.
DURING
The mechanical action of AWT:
- Disrupts the connective tissue to firm and smooth the skin.
- Causes neo-vascularisation, improving circulatory exchanges (the root cause of the problem).
- Initiates an inflammatory process in the skin, leading to thicker, more elastic skin through collagen production.
AFTER
The elasticity of the connective tissue is restored and the skin is smoother. The skin is thicker and more elastic with noticeable improvement in the skin's texture.
