SWT for cellulite: features of the effect on the body

Cellulite itself is a fairly common phenomenon, which makes itself known as early as 20-25 years old. Despite the fact that many people associate its appearance with excess weight, the causes of its development can also be hidden in hormonal disorders, hereditary predisposition, inactive lifestyle. To combat unsightly orange peel is actively used special wraps, massages, diets, exercise. But, alas, they do not give a long-term effect, as they only affect the external manifestations, but do not eliminate the root cause – violations of normal blood circulation.

Shockwave therapy against cellulite is an advanced modern solution that involves the impact on subcutaneous fat deposits by infrasound waves of high pressure amplitude. They are able to move energy from the point of its generation to sufficiently deep structures of subcutaneous tissues at a speed of 1500 m/s without any mechanical damage.

The therapeutic effect of SWT in the fight against cellulite is as follows:

• start metabolic processes at the cellular level, which will contribute to the breakdown of fat deposits;
• stimulating the production of elastin and collagen fibers, which will provide natural restoration of skin structure, elasticity and firmness, normalizes water balance and smoothing of the skin surface;
• improving the permeability of skin membranes, which will provide more effective oxygenation of cells, improve local blood circulation, which will also contribute to the elimination of lumps on the body;
• mechanical stimulation of the lymphatic system will reduce swelling, normalize the process of lymphatic drainage, that is, will contribute to the drainage of excess fluid.

The cleavage products will be excreted through the circulatory system without having any negative impact on the general condition of the body. After completing the course, stretch marks, wrinkles, venous mesh, and skin elasticity also disappear. And all this without dieting. Often UHT is also used for faster recovery of patients after liposuction.
