How does it work?
Compressed air accelerates a projectile within the handpiece, striking a fixed applicator. The resulting kinetic energy is converted into a shockwave that is transmitted through the skin to the target tissue.
These shockwaves spread radially, allowing treatment over a broad area.
The process involves two main phases:
- Compression Phase: The shockwave’s peak pressure generates shear stress in the tissue.
- Tensile Phase: Cavitation bubbles form, driven by the energy density of the wave.
This energy stimulates metabolic activity in the affected tissues, promoting healing and pain relief.
