Acoustic wave technology that improves skin elasticity, breaks down fibrous tissue, and stimulates new collagen for measurable firmness and contour improvement.
Shockwave therapy (also called acoustic wave therapy or ESWT — extracorporeal shock wave therapy) uses precisely calibrated mechanical pressure waves delivered to targeted tissue through a handheld applicator. These acoustic waves create microtrauma that the body responds to by increasing blood flow, breaking down fibrous collagen crosslinks, and stimulating fibroblasts to produce new, healthy collagen and elastin.
In aesthetics, shockwave therapy is primarily used to improve skin firmness, elasticity, body contour, and the appearance of cellulite and fibrous tissue.
Shockwave disrupts the stiff, crosslinked collagen that accumulates with age, stimulating the formation of flexible new collagen that restores youthful elasticity.
Particularly effective on the abdomen, thighs, arms, and buttocks — improving the appearance of crepey skin, dimpling, and loose tissue without surgery.
Shockwave stimulates new blood vessel formation, improving nutrient and oxygen delivery to treated tissue and creating the conditions for sustained biological improvement.
Sessions take 20–40 minutes with no recovery required. Mild redness or sensitivity may occur and resolves within hours.
Shockwave therapy is frequently combined with other regenerative treatments for compounded results:
Most patients describe a mild pulsing or tapping sensation. The intensity is adjusted based on your comfort. The treatment is well-tolerated and does not require anesthesia.
A typical course is 6–10 sessions, delivered weekly or twice weekly. Results accumulate with each session and continue to improve for 4–8 weeks after the final treatment.
Shockwave can treat most body areas including the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms, and face. We customize the protocol to your specific concern and anatomy.
