Before	After

JIVA MEDSPA Skin & Laser Center is the third facility in the United States  to offer a High-Tech System to Reduce Cellulite, known as Acoustic Wave Therapy™  (AWT™ ). “We are thrilled and very proud that we were chosen to make this cutting edge technology available. It is so exciting to offer these new age treatments normally found in Beverly Hills and New York City to our community right here in Dayton, Ohio—and the best thing about it is that our clients have already seen dramatic results and it is affordable.” Dimpled or uneven skin is a nagging problem for many women – even those who work hard to keep fit. Through AWT™, women can achieve firmer, smoother skin in the areas where cellulite commonly forms -- the thighs, buttocks, abdomen and arms. JIVA MedSpa, Skin & Laser Center is one of the first practices in the United States to have access to this new therapy. While cellulite can be traced to genetics, hormones and lifestyle, the problem’s immediate cause is the accumulation of lipids in the fat cells. Swelling from lipid accumulation exerts pressure on the circulatory system, causing a slowdown both in the intake of nutrients and the drainage of waste products. Poor exchanges lead to a gradual stiffening of the connective tissue, which shortens as it stiffens, pulling the skin down. At the same time, the clusters of enlarged fat cells pull the skin up. The consequence of this push/pull mechanism is the appearance of cellulite.	See the News Videos (click images):

Physicians have long used acoustic pulses to help patients ease the pain associated with poor circulation and stiff joints and tendons. Now, Storz Medical, based in Switzerland, has adapted this technology to reduce cellulite and improve the appearance of the skin. In July 2006, MedSurge Advances, the exclusive U.S. distributor for AWT™, began offering the equipment necessary to perform AWT™ to a select number of physicians, with nationwide rollout later this year.

JIVA MedSpa says, “It has been incredibly gratifying to have already exceeded the expectations of our clients by bringing them phenomenal results. Our laser treatments offer solutions to issues such as acne and aging skin, unwanted hair growth, etc and have truly evolved a new sense of confidence and self-esteem for our clients. Such positive results have brought on a renewed sense of being and in some cases, an overall lifestyle change. This new therapy is an impressive enhancement to what we already offer and is consistent with our current menu of medical grade treatments that bring dramatic results. With the AWT, clients can expect a tremendous reduction in the appearance of their cellulite….something only dreamed of in the past—we are now making a modern day reality.

Many different treatments for cellulite have been introduced over the years, most with poor results. Now, Acoustic Wave Therapy™ represents an important breakthrough in the effective reduction of visible cellulite. Initial clinical study results show that AWT™ patients typically experience improvement in skin texture, improvement in skin elasticity, dermal firming and circumference reduction.
