AWT® ACOUSTIC WAVES
Аre mechanical sound impulses able to propagate in tissues, in rapid and repeated sequence,
and radiate over the area undergoing treatment. This method, absolutely non-invasive, accelerates the natural tissue repair processes, reactivates the metabolism encouraging lipase, increases
the venous-lymphatic microcirculation, stimulates growth factors, increases the production of collagen and elastin improving elasticity and compactness of the skin, reduces fat, cellulite imperfections
and reshapes the silhouette. The results are visible from the first treatment sessions.
On the facial area, AWT® Acoustic Waves counteract signs of skin aging. The anti-aging action is obtained thanks to the stimulation of fibroblasts that reactivate the production of collagen and elastin, promote cell renewal and improve skin density and elasticity, resulting in a skin that immediately appears smoother, more toned, and more lifted.

INDICATIONS
Acoustic waves for medical and cosmetic procedures.
Established in 1987, STORZ MEDICAL AG is an independent partner company of the KARL STORZ Group. Our products have proved their efficacy all over the world in the medical disciplines of urology, ortho- paedics, cardiology dermatology and aesthetic medicine.
Close co-operation with leading medical institutes in the United States, Switzerland, Germany and Italy has enabled us to develop a pioneering treatment that sets new standards for medical and cosmetic procedures. This treatment method is referred to as Acoustic Wave Treatment, AWT® for short.
The fields of application of AWT®:
Body shaping
Cellulite treatment
Skin elasticity improvement
Connective tissue tightening
Scar and wrinkle smoothing
Acoustic Wave Treatment (AWT®) for aesthetic applications.
Originally, acoustic waves were used for medical purposes exclusively because of their mechanical effects. While initially applied for the fragmentation of kidney stones, acoustic waves have also been em- ployed in orthopaedic pain therapy for over 20 years. Recent studies have revealed that acoustic waves also produce biological effects that stimulate metabolic processes and improve connective tissue elasticity in aesthetic treatment. The results can be significantly enhanced by combining focused acoustic waves with radial acoustic waves. More- over, vibration treatment is an ideal complement to AWT®.

The D-ACTOR® handpiece is particularly designed for the treatment of superficial tissue regions. The radial waves are used for applications such as cellulite treatment, facial wrinkle smoothing and connective tissue tightening. Scientific studies could confirm the effectiveness of radial acoustic waves in body shaping when combined with focused acoustic waves.
Acoustic waves of the D-ACTOR® handpiece are generated by a projectile which is repeatedly accelerated by compressed air. By impinging on a transmitter, the energy is introduced into the tissue. Various types of transmitters allow the treatment of different structures.
Transmitters for D-ACTOR® handpiece
The ergonomic shape of the radial handpiece and a selected range of different transmitters offer the user maximal flexibility in their treatment protocol.
The applied parameters such as frequency, energy and total number of pulses can be selected and viewed on the integrated display and buttons. Additionally, the D-ACTOR® handpiece is equipped with the unique power sensor to display the application pressure intensity.
Key facts
All control elements and parameter settings on the handpiece
Handpiece integrated control of application pressure intensity
Specific transmitters available to reach different tissue structures

The DUOLITH® handpiece has been particularly designed for
specific fat break down and smoothing effects. The focused acoustic waves are used for applications requiring precisely controlled energy input and concentration in adipose and skin tissue: body shaping, scar and wrinkle smoothing, post-liposuction treatment and connective tissue tightening. The effectiveness of focused acoustic waves in aesthetic medicine is confirmed in scientific studies.
Different stand-offs to adjust treatment depth
Acoustic waves of the DUOLITH® handpiece, generated by the proven electromagnetic cylindrical source, allow safe treatment due to a constant energy output.
The dynamic shape of the DUOLITH® handpiece lies comfortable in the user's hand and reduces hand fatigue. All treatment parameters such as frequency, energy and total number of pulses can be selected and viewed on the integrated display and buttons.
Key facts
All control elements and parameter settings on the handpiece n Energy range: 0.03 – 1.24 mJ/mm2
Therapeutic effectiveness up to 60 mm penetration depth

The vibration treatment stimulates the metabolism and encourages the elimination of waste products. The pneumatically generated, oscillating impulses cause vibrations in the skin and muscles, which have a positive effect on the circulation. This mode of action promotes natural tightening and smoothing of the skin.
The relaxing wellness effect of vibration massage provides the ideal complement to AWT® and can either be used before or after the treatment.
All parameters such as frequency, energy and total number of pulses can be selected and viewed on the touch display.

VACU-ACTOR® treatment mechanically manipulates the tissue by applying negative pressure directly to the skin. Since tension is exerted on the tissue both vertically and horizontally, it can loosen adhered tissue layers and increase elasticity. The mechanical effect reaches from skin level into profound subcutaneous layers to fascia and muscle fibres. VACU-ACTOR® treatment is an additional complement to AWT®, especially when vibration treatment (V-ACTOR® mode) is not applicable, e.g. cleavage or face. In static application, treatment using the VACU- Cup is performed locally in specific spots; for dynamic application, it takes place along the course of a muscle or fascia. Besides the vacuum intensity, the user can select between a continuous and an intermittent vacuum mode.
