Effect of ultrasonic cavitation on physiological processes in the body

Alexander Gorin Cometology

The modern era of cosmetology and medical aesthetics provides us with a wide range of options to improve the appearance and maintain healthy skin. One innovative procedure that is recognized as being in demand is ultrasonic cavitation. This method is based on the use of ultrasound waves to destroy fat cells and correct the figure. But what is the effect of ultrasound cavitation on the physiological processes of the body? In this article, we will address this question and determine the benefits and possible risks of this procedure.

Ultrasonic cavitation: basic principles

Ultrasonic cavitation is a technique that uses ultrasound waves to create microscopic bubbles inside fat cells. These bubbles collapse under the pressure of the ultrasound waves, destroying the fat cells and turning their contents into liquid. This fluid is then expelled from the body through the lymphatic and urinary systems.
Ultrasound cavitation is performed using a special device that directs ultrasound waves to the treated area of the skin. It can be applied to different areas of the body such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks and others.

The effect of ultrasonic cavitation on physiological processes

Let's take a closer look at how ultrasound cavitation affects physiological processes in the body:

  1. Destruction of fat cells: The main mechanism of action of ultrasonic cavitation is the destruction of fat cells. This makes it possible to reduce the volume of fat in the treated area and correct the figure. The destroyed fat is gradually eliminated from the body by natural processes.
  2. Improving lymphatic drainage: Ultrasonic cavitation can stimulate the lymphatic system, thus accelerating the removal of toxins and waste substances from the body. This can improve the overall condition of the skin and promote skin firming.
  3. Local improvement of blood circulation: The action of ultrasound waves can also help improve local blood circulation. This can be beneficial for better oxygen and nutrient delivery to the skin cells.
  4.  Reduction of inflammation: Ultrasound cavitation can help reduce inflammation in the skin, which is helpful for problems such as cellulite.
  5. Improvement of skin texture: The procedure can also improve the texture of the skin, making it firmer and smoother.

 

Benefits of ultrasonic cavitation on physiological processes in the body

Ultrasonic cavitation provides a number of benefits for physiological processes in the body:

  1. Minimal invasiveness: Ultrasound cavitation does not require surgery, thus avoiding the risks associated with surgical procedures.
  2. No recovery time: Patients can return to their daily activities almost immediately after the procedure without significant disruption to their daily lives.
  3. Long-term results: After a series of ultrasonic cavitation treatments, the results are usually long-lasting if proper lifestyle and nutrition are followed.

Possible risks and limitations

Despite its many advantages, ultrasonic cavitation is not suitable for everyone. There are several potential risks and limitations:

  1. Side effects: Temporary side effects such as redness, swelling or mild pain in the treatment area may occur, but usually subside within a few days.
  2. Ineffectiveness in obese people: Ultrasound cavitation is not always effective in overweight or obese people because there may be too much fat deposits that are not destroyed by this procedure.
  3. Contraindications: The procedure may be contraindicated in pregnant women, people with serious health problems and if you have certain types of implants or metal inserts in the treatment area.

Conclusion

Ultrasound cavitation is an innovative method in the field of cosmetology and medical aesthetics that affects physiological processes in the body and can be an effective solution for body shaping and skin firming. Despite its many benefits, it is important to consult with a qualified professional before starting this procedure to make sure it is suitable and safe for you.
