Cavitation Peeling & Ultrasoud Treatment

Sonophoresis & Cavitation Peeling Lesson

Ultrasound-based procedures like sonophoresis and cavitation peeling are non-invasive skincare methods using microvibrations and cavitation effects. In this lesson, you'll explore how ultrasound waves work, how to apply them, and the indications and contraindications for sound-based treatments in cosmetology. You'll also learn how to operate the devices and how to combine both techniques in a single session.

Ultrasound Therapy

What you’ll learn – theory

• Definition of ultrasound – what ultrasound waves are and how they're used in cosmetology.
• Mechanism of action – how ultrasound affects the skin, tissues, and cells.
• How ultrasound supports active ingredient delivery – the principle of sonophoresis and its applications.
• Treatment parameters – how to select ultrasound intensity, duration, and frequency.
• Conductive substances for sonophoresis – including gels, ampoules, and their active ingredients.
• Common frequencies used – and their effect on skin penetration depth.
• Treatment areas – such as the face, neck, décolleté, and other body zones.
• Cell and tissue structure – to understand the skin's response to ultrasound waves.
• Facial bone structure – essential for planning safe and effective treatments.
• Facial vascular system – to prevent irritation and optimize treatment delivery.
• Facial nerve system – to adjust treatment intensity based on client sensitivity.
• Facial muscles – to support lifting and toning effects of ultrasound.
• Skin anatomy – including how its layers respond to ultrasonic stimulation.
• Skin conditions – including both contraindications and therapeutic indications.
• Safety and hygiene – including device disinfection and hygienic work protocols.
• Ultrasound treatment products – ingredients and selection based on skin concerns.
• Contraindications – such as pregnancy, cancer, pacemakers, or active inflammation.
• Skin typing – and how to perform proper pre-treatment analysis.
• Client qualification – including consultation and skin evaluation.
• Treatment area setup – tools, hygiene products, and organization.
• Precautions – proper settings, skin reaction monitoring, and safe procedures.
• Step-by-step sonophoresis procedure – from consultation to final skincare.
• Post-treatment recommendations – including aftercare and external factor avoidance.

What you’ll learn – practice

• How to set up your workstation – with attention to hygiene and ergonomics.
• All materials required – including ultrasound devices, gels, actives, and accessories.
• How to prepare the client's skin – cleansing and applying the conductive product.
• Step-by-step ultrasound treatment – covering head movement technique, timing, and parameters.

Cavitation Peeling

What you’ll learn – theory

• Definition of cavitation peeling – a touch-free method of deep skin cleansing using ultrasound.
• Mechanism of action – how ultrasound waves in a liquid medium create microbubbles that lift away dead skin cells.
• Treatment effects – including pore cleansing, skin smoothing, brightening, and improved absorption.
• Skin condition identification – such as blackheads, bumps, pimples, and excess sebum.
• Cell and tissue structure – to understand skin regeneration after exfoliation.
• Facial bone anatomy – to guide the treatment spatula accurately.
• Facial vascular system – to avoid irritation in sensitive areas.
• Facial nerve system – for client comfort and customized treatment planning.
• Key facial muscles – to understand skin tone and muscular influence.
• Skin anatomy – with a focus on the stratum corneum and exfoliation processes.
• Skin conditions – including contraindications and therapeutic uses.
• Safety and hygiene – including equipment prep, disinfection, and client protection.
• Cavitation peeling steps – from makeup removal to aftercare application.
• Contraindications – including pregnancy, pacemakers, inflammation, and cancer.
• Skin typing – to adjust treatment intensity according to individual needs.
• Client qualification – based on consultation and visual skin analysis.
• Treatment setup – workspace organization, tools, and hygiene supplies.
• Products for cavitation peeling – conductive gels, toners, and cleansing agents.
• Step-by-step cavitation peeling procedure – including spatula technique and completion protocol.
• Combining cavitation peeling with other treatments – such as ampoules, sonophoresis, or masks.

What you’ll learn – practice

• How to prepare your workspace – focusing on hygiene, comfort, and efficiency.
• All essential tools – including cavitation devices, conductive gel, and sanitizing products.
• Client skin preparation – makeup removal, hydration, and pre-treatment application.
• Step-by-step cavitation peeling – proper spatula technique, motion, and procedure wrap-up.
