Cosmetic Ultrasound with Skindream^® TITANIUM from a Medical Perspective.

The cosmetic benefits of ultrasound were discovered in the medical field where it had been used for decades as a safe and conservative diagnostic imaging. With the help of a coupling medium (gel), placed either on the sonic head or the anatomy to be examined, the sound waves penetrate the body and reflect with the appropriate technical composition, images from the inside of the body. The most common example is the ultrasound imaging of the unborn baby. Therapeutic uses of ultrasound have existed for a long time in the field of therapy. Ultrasound supports orthopaedic treatments by relaxing muscles and increasing the blood circulation. It was during these treatments, that the positive effects on the skin were discovered. Patients treated for muscle tension noticed not only increased blood circulation in the muscles, but also visible improvement of their skin in the treated areas. This discovery prompted the development of “cosmetic ultrasound” devices.

The effects of ultrasound on the organism are very complex and depend largely on:

The frequency and intensity of ultrasound waves are of paramount importance. Both factors define and influence the thermal, mechanical and chemical components and allow for a versatile range of treatments in the field of aesthetics.

Skindream^® TITANIUM operates with 1 MHz, a frequency that research and studies have proven to produce the most effective results on the skin and related indications.

The focus of treatment with continuous ultrasound (therapeutic ultrasound, orthopaedic) is to increase blood circulation, while for cosmetic ultrasound treatments pulsed ultrasound is optimal and preferred.

These vibrations produce mechanical and chemical effects in each skin layer and also facilitate thermal (increase in blood circulation) effects.

Skindream^® TITANIUM improves the metabolism in the skin:

The localized thermal effect during ultrasound treatment increases blood circulation, oxygen supply to the skin cells as well as the metabolism. At the same time, this entire process accelerates the lymphatic circulation. Lymphatic drainage is improved and excess toxins are eliminated from the skin layers.

Skindream^® TITANIUM activates cell regeneration:

The mechanical effect of impulse ultrasound (micro massage), causes the dermal tissue to vibrate. The combined effect of vibration and deep penetration flushes the entire skin structure. This elimination of so-called “waste products” from individual skin layers and the activation of collagen and elastin synthesis restores firmness and elasticity to the skin. Cells are regenerated quickly and the newly-formed cells are transported to the outer skin layer by way of an accelerated metabolism. This mechanism achieves what is referred to as the “bolster-effect” that is responsible for reducing and softening lines and wrinkles.

Skindream^® TITANIUM strengthens and tightens connective tissue:

The combination of heat and pressure from pulsating ultrasound adjusts the ph –level (alkaline) value in the skin. Tissue is revitalized, which produces a firming effect. It should be noted that only continuous treatments over time lead to these desired results.

Skindream^® TITANIUM facilitates effective penetration of active ingredients:

The micro-massage causes “friction” among the individual skin layers. Even the smallest molecules detach from the skin layer and the skin becomes more “transparent” The experts speak of “sonophoresis”. Through sonophoresis liquid, active ingredients (i.e. hyaluronic acid, vitamin complex, collagen and elastin products) can penetrate into the deeper layer of the skin. The effectiveness of these active ingredients is not only increased but also enabled.
