Cavitation Peeling & Ultrasound

Ultrasound and cavitation peeling are non-invasive technologies used in esthetic cosmetology to improve skin condition, enhance cleansing and regeneration, and increase the effectiveness of applied active ingredients. These treatments are based on high-frequency ultrasound waves that affect tissues at both the epidermal and cellular levels.

Ultrasound therapy (sonophoresis) supports microcirculation, enhances cellular metabolism, and increases the penetration of active ingredients into deeper layers of the skin. Cavitation peeling utilizes the phenomenon of cavitation to safely and effectively cleanse the skin, remove impurities, and exfoliate dead epidermal cells without disrupting skin integrity.

This lesson introduces participants to the principles of ultrasound device operation, treatment parameters, indications and contraindications, as well as complete treatment protocols. The material includes theoretical content, instructional videos, step-by-step guidance, and prepares participants to consciously combine both technologies with other skincare procedures.
