Zimmer Zwave

What is Zimmer ZWave?

Zimmer ZWave is a non-surgical treatment for dimpled, lumpy fat known as cellulite. This state-of-the-art fat reduction treatment makes use of sound waves to destroy fat cells and eliminate them quickly, resulting in tighter, smoother, and well-toned skin. For people with severe hanging and dimpled skin on the hips, buttocks, upper arms, thighs, and abdomen, Zimmer ZWave treatment can provide the ultimate cosmetic solution. Zimmer ZWave is also indicated for stretch marks, scars, and lymphatic drainage.

How does Zimmer ZWave Work?

The Zimmer ZWave system uses powerful pulses of high energy radial shockwaves to target pockets of fat and cellulite. These high energy pulses break down the fat cells until they can be naturally expelled into the blood and out of the body. Aside from fat breakdown, Zimmer ZWave treatment also stimulates collagen formation, which results in skin cell renewal. This process eventually reveals a healthier, radiant, and smoother skin.

How long does Zimmer ZWave Treatment take?

Typically, one treatment takes 10-15 minutes to complete. However, the length of the treatment will greatly depend on the patient’s condition, area to be treated, and cosmetic goals.

How many Zimmer ZWave Treatments are Required to see Results?

For optimal results, patients should undergo 6-10 treatments. Again, it is important to keep in mind that each patient is unique and will have different response to the treatment. The doctor will determine the number of treatments required for each patient during the consultation period and will base it on several important factors such as existing fat deposits and cellulite, area to be treated, and desired cosmetic results.

How long do Results last after Zimmer ZWave Treatments?

The results are usually long lasting, but cellulite may return, depending on several factors. Some patients have genetic and hormonal problems that will consistently affect their fat metabolism while some patients may resume a sedentary lifestyle. Therefore, it may be necessary to have periodic treatments of Zimmer ZWave to maintain a patient’s body contour. In addition, a healthy low fat diet and regular physical activity are important to prevent pockets of fat and cellulite from returning.

Is Zimmer ZWave Treatment Painless?

This non-surgical treatment does not require any downtime and is absolutely painless. In fact, patients can immediately resume their activities of daily living following the treatment.

Can Zimmer ZWave be used with other Treatments?

Unlike other non-surgical fat removal treatments, Zimmer ZWave can be used in combination with other skin rejuvenation procedures such as CoolSculpting and liposuction to address different cosmetic concerns. This combination promotes improved skin cell renewal, faster regeneration, and better clinical outcome.
