BeforeCellupulse:
Enlarged fat cells bulge upwards towards the skin surface, giving the skin the typical orange peel appearance. The inelastic vertical connective tissue fibers do not stretch along with the surrounding adipose tissue, which leads to the undesirable dimpling. Local blood circulation is significantly reduced.
DuringCellupulse:
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.
AfterCellupulse:
The results of EPAT® are improved firmness and restored natural elasticity of the skin and connective tissue along with a visible and long-lasting improvement in skin texture.

What are Acoustic Waves?
Acoustic waves known as shock waves have been used in medicine to treat a variety of pathologic conditions in the human body without making an incision. This technology is proven to be successful in treating a multitude of orthopedic conditions throughout the body, primarily including painful ligaments and tendons. During treatments for painful hip conditions in women athletes it was accidentally discovered to effectively treat cellulite. Women were reporting smoother and toner skin with reduced cellulite on the side that was undergoing shock wave treatment.

Better Skin Structure, Contour and Tone.
Acoustic wave therapy (Cellupulse) impacts the major causes of cellulite: fibrous septae and protrusion of fat into the lower dermis. This also allows for improved circulation and lymphatic drainage in addition to addressing the primary pathology.
The pressure wave or shock wave of cellupulse passes through the skin and fat to impact the fibrous septae. Improved elasticity of the previously hardened connective tissue restores the tissue to a supple, smooth texture.
Neovascularization (the natural or organic process whereby the body tissue develops new capillaries,) ensures better exchanges to the connective tissue (addressing the root cause of the problem).
The improved exchange allows for new collagen fibrils, which thickens the dermal layer of the skin leading to noticeable improvement in skin texture.
