Ultrasound Cavitation
What is ultrasonic cavitation?
Cavitation is a physical phenomenon of vaporization of a liquid by reducing the pressure, caused by the movement of sound waves. When low-frequency ultrasonic waves reach the adipose tissue they create positive and negative pressures, generating millions of microscopic air bubbles. The application of ultrasound disrupts the adipose tissue, breaking it down.
