Shockwave Therapy for Aesthetic Care
Aesthetic Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses externally applied acoustic (sound) waves to support circulation, tissue remodeling, and improvement in the appearance of skin texture. At BreezeMed, Shockwave Therapy is offered as a self-pay aesthetic service under licensed medical oversight following an in-person evaluation.
This treatment is commonly sought by patients looking for non-surgical options to support improvements in cellulite appearance, skin tone, and localized contour concerns. Treatments do not involve needles, incisions, or anesthesia and typically require little to no downtime.
Common Aesthetic Uses
- Cellulite appearance support
- Skin texture and firmness support or Body Sculpting
- Localized contour concerns

- Lymphatic drainage support
How it Works?
Shockwave Therapy delivers controlled acoustic pulses through a handheld device applied to the skin. These acoustic waves are intended to support local blood flow, collagen activity, and soft tissue mobilization. Treatment plans vary by individual and are determined after clinical evaluation.
