Shockwave Treatment

Fat Reduction
Shockwave therapy releases sound waves that can help to reduce fat. The sound waves penetrate through the skin and into the fat layer, causing the separation of fatty acids and glycerol within fat cells. The treatment also aids the flow and drainage of the lymphatic system, which will help to remove the broken down fat cells from the body. As a result of this, shockwave therapy is ideal for areas of the body where fat is hard to get rid of through a healthy lifestyle.

Improve Cellulite
The sound waves released from the shockwave machine can also help to treat cellulite. Cellulite is when the skin appears dimpled, which is caused by fatty tissues being close to the surface of the skin. When the machine emits sound waves into the skin, they help to increase the blood circulation to the target area. In turn, this encourages the separation of fatty acids and glycerol as mentioned above, reducing the appearance of cellulite.

Skin Tightening
Increased blood circulation as caused by shockwave therapy also has benefits in regards to skin tightening. The reason for this is that it stimulates the production of the protein collagen, which works to tighten the skin. This is ideal for reducing signs of ageing such as lines and wrinkles.
