MATERIALS AND METHODS
Treatment was performed on the lateral aspect of the thigh of 21 patients, all female, with the D-ACTOR® 200 by STORZ MEDICAL AG
(Tägerwilen, Switzerland). The D-ACTOR® 200 is a vibrating massage system that operates by compressed air to perform pulse activation therapy
on target muscles and tissues. 6 AWT® treatment sessions have been performed within 4 weeks. 3000 pulses have been applied to an area of
approximately 10x15 cm located on the thigh. Follow-up visits were performed 1 week and 12 weeks after treatment. Changes of the skin structure
were evaluated using the DermaTOP System (Eotech, Paris, France). Skin elasticity measurements were performed using the DermaLab Device
(Cortex Technology, Hadsund, Denmark). No anesthesia was needed as the procedure is almost painless. Patients only feel a vibrating sensation.
A redness of the treated skin is typically seen a couple of hours after the session.
