AWT is one of the first
effective treatments available that addresses the underlying causes of
cellulite. This dimpling appearance of the skin is a result of collagen
pulling the skin down, and the thinning of collagen, which allows fat
to push up into the skin. The contraction of collagen blocks blood vessels,
causing the skin to protrude and appear dimpled.
In order to treat the cellulite, we must relax the tissues and improve the circulation in the skin.
Acoustic Wave Therapy (AWT™) uses high-energy acoustic waves that are introduced into the patient‘s body in the form of high-frequency oscillations. AWT™ is the first effective and long-lasting treatment modality for cellulite stage I to III.

Acoustic waves have been used in medicine with great
success since 1980 for the disintegration of kidney stones (ESWL) and
since 1992 for the treatment of orthopaedic conditions such as tendon
and muscle disorders (ESWT).
Effects on the epidermis and subcutaneous tissue
Enlarged fat cells bulge upwards towards the skin surface, giving the skin the typical orange peel appearance. The inelastic vertical connective tissue fibres do not stretch along with the surrounding adipose tissue, which leads to the undesirable dimpling. Local blood circulation is significantly reduced.
Oscillating acoustic waves are introduced into the body. The connective tissue relaxes, and the firmness of the epidermis increases. Blood circulation in the tissue is significantly enhanced. Collagen production is stimulated, strengthening the dermis and epidermis.
The results of AWT™ are improved firmness and restored natural elasticity of the skin and connective tissue along with a visible and long-lasting improvement in skin texture.
