What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that utilizes acoustic sound waves to penetrate the skin and stimulate the body to activate the innate healing within. This device was originally developed in order to break up kidney stones in the 1980s, since then, the machine has been adapted and used more frequently for musculoskeletal and soft tissue injuries.
Science Behind Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave activates your body’s ability to regenerate and repair by causing microtrauma to the tissue which activates cells to begin a repair process. Including neovascularization, promoting the formation of new blood vessels that allow more blood and nutrients to flow to the treated area.
Therapy Process
Your initial visit begins with a skin consultation during which we will determine your skin concerns, discuss your desired outcomes, and create a treatment plan based on your skin’s particular needs and expectations.
Next we will have you cleanse your skin and have a before photo taken to document your results.
Once on the treatment table we will apply a pharmaceutical grade conductive gel to boost the transmission of the acoustic waves and enhance the outcome of each treatment.
During the session the shockwave wand is applied directly to the face and neck area. You will feel a vibrating/tapping which most people describe as painless.
The average session lasts around 15-30 minutes.
Once the session is complete, we will send you home with after treatment products that can be utilized during your night time facial routine and aim to enhance the results of your collagen stimulating treatment.
There is no downtime associated with this treatment, therefore you can immediately return to daily activities. Some people may experience a mild warming/tingling feeling in their skin and /or mild redness in the treated areas which dissipates very quickly.
For the best results a series of 8-10 treatments spaced about 1 week apart are recommended. Once initial sessions are completed maintenance sessions are recommended based on each individual's desire to maintain results and/or address future concerns.
Why Choose this Therapy over other Treatments
Shockwave is non-invasive compared to many other facial treatments, and has zero downtime after sessions. More benefits include: stimulating your body to produce collagen and elastin, enhancing microcirculation which repairs the skin by giving it a radiant and even tone, it also breaks down fat deposits, promotes lymphatic drainage, and tissue regenerating for long term results.
