Z-Wave

Cellulite Treatment – With Radial Pulse Technology

The Z Wave unit transmits powerful sound waves onto and through the skin. This energy is delivered via an electromagnetic applicator, then spreads out radially. (Picture the gentle radial waves generated when dropping a pebble into a still pond.) This radial energy enhances the treatment effect to improve the tone, texture and appearance of the cellulite. The body parts most prone to cellulite are buttocks, thighs, abdomen, and arms.

Cellulite Factoids:

  • Cellulite is defined as a condition in which skin appears to have areas with underlying fat deposits, giving it a dimpled, lumpy appearance.
  • UV rays can worsen the appearance of cellulite.
  • Nearly 90% of women and 10% of men will develop areas of cellulite. This includes people who are otherwise slim and fit.
  • Cellulite usually begins to appear between the ages of 25 and 35 as estrogen begins to decrease.
  • Exercise does not get rid of cellulite. One can reduce fat, but this does not effect the herniated fibers that cause cellulite.
  • Losing weight doesn‘t make cellulite disappear.
  • Drug store creams have not been shown to have significant effect to reduce the appearance of cellulite.
