What is shockwave therapy?

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) with the BTL device uses high-energy sound waves to penetrate deep into the tissue. This stimulates blood circulation, cell regeneration, and lymphatic flow - without needles, scalpels, or medication. The treatment is specifically used to regenerate tissue, enhance circulation, and improve skin texture and cellular structure - particularly in aesthetic medicine, orthopedics, and pain therapy.

Comfortable and with no downtime

How a shockwave therapy with a BTL device works

After a thorough consultation and explanation, the treatment area is determined. A contact gel is then applied to optimize energy transmission. The BTL applicator is moved over the target zones in circular or sweeping motions, delivering controlled radial shockwaves into the tissue.

What to Keep in Mind After Treatment

Post-Care for Shockwave Therapy with a BTL Device

Shockwave therapy is an outpatient procedure. You can resume your normal activities immediately afterward. Mild redness, tenderness, or slight swelling may occur, but these usually subside within a few hours. To achieve optimal results, it is recommended to continue drinking plenty of water, stay physically active, and maintain a balanced diet.
