Acoustic Wave Therapy - The Newest Cellulite Eraser

With all the treatment options out there, it's hard to keep up and harder to tell which one is the best cellulite eraser. Acoustic wave therapy is the newest kid on the block, and it's making waves due to it's claim to be the only treatment targeting the two main reasons women get cellulite. So exactly what is this procedure and how does it work? Let's find out.

What Is Acoustic Wave Therapy?
Acoustic wave therapy, or AWT has been used in the medical field for several years now. It was originally intended for those suffering from bad joints or poor circulation due to it's ability to help trigger the body' s pain and anti inflammatory response. It's skin smoothing properties were discovered entirely by chance. AWT treatments are administered by using a handheld device to mechanically pull and sculpt the underlying tissue with a series of pulses. The head of the device emits high pressure waves which stimulate the skin and bring blood up near the surface. As the frequency is increased, the device manipulates and massages the connective tissues with intense pressure.

The Main Causes Of Cellulite
The two major causes of orange peel skin are fibrous septae and protrusion of fat into the lower dermis. As we age, our connective tissue support system of fat hardens and contracts over time. These connective tissue are called fibrous sepate. The contraction additionally blocks the blood vessels and lymphatic drainage system, hardening the septae even more. The result is thick, swollen looking skin. The second major cause of cellulite occurs when the protruding fat cells move into the deeper layers of the skin, making the dimpling look worse.

How VascuWave Treatment As A Cellulite Eraser
The acoustic wave device works by vibrating connective tissue, causing it to stretch and improve it's elasticity. The pressure waves also increases blood supply to the connective tissue, which further improves blood circulation. Moreover, AWT treatments release healing mediators through a fibroblastic response that prevents the underlying fat from protruding into the skin's deeper layers.

Acoustic wave therapy can be an effective cellulite eraser, but then again, so can other treatments. Several sessions will be needed to see the full benefits, and with a cost of $150-$300 per session, the final cost could run into the $1000's. And routine touchups will be needed to maintain the results. Truthfully, there are other less expensive alternatives worth looking in to.
