- What's cellulite and how does it form?
When the adipose tissue under the skin layer is jammed, blood circulation is inhibited and an orange shell view is formed over the skin. This is called "cellulite". When touched on skin, it's sensed as rugged and hard. Cellulite is a problem that is seen on 9 in each of 10 females. It can be seen in every ages of females beginning from adolescence period. It doesn't depend on weight. But in fat persons, view on skin resulted from cellulite is more clear. Generally, cellulite is formed on the regions such as buttocks, hiplines, inner parts of knee and ankles and at the back of calves.
CAUSES OF CELLULITE
First cause of the cellulite is hormones that is special to females. Furthermore, hereditary properties, genetic factors, irregular nutrition, smoking, alcohol consumption, stress, immobility, wearing high-heeled shoes take important role on the formation of cellulite.
FORMATION OF CELLULITE
Cellulite formation shows differences from one person to other. Generally, it's formed in adolescence ages and periods such as pregnancy and menopause that hormones exposed to more mutation that the other states. Nevertheless, effective factors for the formation of cellulite are; genetic structures of people, metabolism range, circulation system, digestion and excretion, birth control pills, hormone drugs, irregular nutrition, immobility, stress, smoking and alcohol consumption.
- What's ultrasound?
Ultrasound is high frequency sound wave which is above 20,000 cycles per second beyond human hearing limits. These waves create millions of microscopic bubbles, which collapse or 'implode', releasing large amounts of energy. This pulse of energy is like a very small explosion, a sound wave actually hits and moves across the object surface and physically tries to push and pull the cell walls at minimum 20,000 times per second (depending upon the frequency we apply to the patient).
This process, known as cavitation, creates a scrubbing action capable of disrupting fat cell walls without any adverse effect to the surrounding cells and liquifying the fat tissue consecutivelly by forcing them towards lymph canals.
- SONOSHAPE disrupts fat cells. Does it injure other neighboring tissues?
Device is focused on the walls of fat cells . Other cells (muscle, fibre) are different in formation than the structure of fat cells. Thus these type of cells do not get adverselly effected by the ultrasound application.
- What's the risk of high frequency and power towards the risk of propagating to interior parts of the body?
Applied frequency and power of the device does not reach to the interior parts of the body. For instance, this device does not have a power and frequency to enable a function such as crushing of kidney stone. The utmost, wave can propagate until adipose tissue under the skin (which is the required effect). Ultrasound waves produced by the device can not reach deeper parts in the body. Due to the fact that fat cell absorbs ultrasound wave.
- What's the risk of blood and vascular system?
Blood veins are not negativelly effected at all. As blood vessels especially capillaries are present everywhere in the body. Long years of research and developement displays that there does not exist neither any adverse effect In literature search, nor any negative scientific article has been met, nor any practicle negative side effect as such has appeared.
- What's the risk caused due to any alteration in frequency and power of device?
Frequency by no means can change by itself due to the geometry of vibration head does not allow frequency to be out of 25-40 kHz band. Device has excess current protection in case of increasing network voltage. Transistor and integrated structure of this device cannot withstand high voltage and will automatically break the circuit. Therefore because of technical limitations any such change is not possible at all.
