Abstract

See full text

One embodiment of an ultrasound system for reducing the appearance of cellulite includes an ultrasound contact plate positioned within the cavity of a handpiece. Suction is used to draw tissue into the cavity, bringing the skin surface into contact with the ultrasound contact plate during ultrasound energy delivery. A motor mechanically vibrates the handpiece during ultrasound delivery, causing the contact plate to reciprocate relative to the underlying tissue undergoing ultrasound exposure.
