Shockwave Body Contouring & Cellulite (STORZ)

Acoustic shockwave therapy using a STORZ device to help contour the body and reduce the appearance of cellulite on the abdomen and thighs. The pulses are associated with improved local circulation and firmer-looking skin texture. It is delivered as a course of sessions, priced by body area, and involves no needles or downtime.

Shockwave body contouring uses a STORZ acoustic-wave device to deliver pulses of mechanical energy into the skin and underlying tissue. These pressure waves are associated with improved local blood flow and lymphatic activity and with a stimulating effect on the connective tissue, which is why the treatment is used to help smooth the dimpled appearance of cellulite and to support body-contouring goals on areas such as the abdomen and thighs. At EsteticaMed the treatment is non-invasive, using a handpiece applied to the skin with gel, with no needles involved. A session typically lasts around twenty to thirty minutes depending on the area, and most people describe the sensation as a tolerable tapping or vibration. There is essentially no downtime — you can return to normal activities immediately, and mild temporary redness is the most that is usually seen. Because the effect builds with repetition, shockwave therapy is delivered as a course of sessions spaced over several weeks rather than as a single treatment, and results are supported by staying well hydrated and active. The abdomen, the front and back of the thighs, and the thighs as a whole can be treated, with pricing set by region. It is well suited to adults wanting to address the appearance of cellulite and firm body contours non-invasively; the clinic will confirm suitability beforehand, and it is avoided in pregnancy and over certain conditions.
