If you’ve tried dieting, exercising, or expensive creams but still notice stubborn cellulite, you’re not alone. Nearly 90% of women experience it, and it rarely responds to lifestyle changes alone. At Mariposa Aesthetics & Laser Center in Oklahoma City, we offer Z Wave therapy. This is a non-invasive treatment proven to reduce cellulite and tighten skin, all without surgery or downtime..
What Is ZWave Therapy?
Z Wave is an FDA-cleared acoustic shockwave treatment that improves skin tone and texture by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes. It uses high-energy radical acoustic waves that are transmitted through the skin with an applicator held by the treatment provider. It is scientifically proven to improve the appearance of the skin by stimulating collagen production. Cellulite reduction is started by improving elasticity and enhancing circulation under the skin. That is why Z Wave therapy is ideal for smoothing and tightening your skin. This treatment was not originally made for cellulite reduction, it was used in sports injuries and post-surgical recovery. The technology is now a staple in aesthetic medicine.
How Z Wave Works
There are two different ways that Z Wave therapy works on the body. It is a two-part process, one is positive pressure pulses or shockwaves that will compress your tissue and break the molecular grid. The second part is the tensile waves that destabilize fat structures by collapsing and re-expand the fat cells under the skin which is called cavitation. Cellulite reduction works because the body’s natural processes like blood vessel formation, lymphatic drainage, cell regeneration and collagen and connective tissue strengthening will tighten your skin.
What Can Z Wave Help With?
Z Wave does more than cellulite reduction! It also helps with:
- Skin tightening and smoothing
- Post-liposuction recovery (reduces swelling & bruising)
- Stretch mark improvement
- Enhanced results from CoolSculpting, ZLipo, Vanquish ME, and other body contouring treatments
What to Expect With Your Z Wave Treatment
You may be asking, what is the treatment experience for a cellulite reduction therapy such as Z Wave? There are a few things we will go over that you should be expecting from your treatment. For the duration and comfort level you should expect the sessions to last about 20-30 minutes. The best part is it feels like a massage, meaning it is painfree. There is also no downtime required, so you can go back to your daily activities immediately after your appointment. You should expect visible results in about two-three sessions, while optimal results are usually seen in six-ten sessions. Maintenance sessions are recommended to maintain and prolong your results.
Z Wave Long Term Results
As mentioned above, some improvement will be seen rather quickly after just a few sessions. For cellulite reduction you will see in just a few weeks after treatments. Most patients see major results in a full series of treatments, which is about ten sessions. You should expect your results to last a long time with proper lifestyle choices, like healthy eating, working out, and skincareThe reduced dimpling and improved body contouring will show improvements quickly as well. The more treatments you receive, the less bruising you will endure after each session.
Z Wave Safety and Side Effects
Z Wave is FDA (Food and Drug Administration) cleared for use in aesthetic medicine and supported by scientific studies. Since it was originally used for sports injuries, it has been used for years, making it safe and effective for both injuries, and cellulite reduction. There are minimal side effects for Z Wave, mild redness and slight bruising are the most common immediately after a session. These both will resolve themselves in a few hours. If you want to reduce cellulite and tighten your skin, you would be a good candidate.
