The Healing Power of Sound

At PrincetonMD, we offer a range of innovative treatments and solutions to help our patients achieve optimal health. One such treatment is shockwave therapy, a non-invasive procedure that can provide relief from a variety of conditions and improve overall well-being. The process uses low-intensity sound waves to stimulate healing and improve blood flow to targeted body areas. We place a handheld device on the skin that then delivers sound waves to the area needing rejuvenation. The treatment is typically painless and requires no anesthesia. In addition to treating specific conditions, such as chronic pain or injuries, shockwave therapy can also help to promote overall health and wellness by improving blood flow, reducing stress, and enhancing the body's natural healing abilities. Whether you're an athlete looking to improve your performance or simply looking to improve your overall quality of life, shockwave therapy in Princeton can be an effective and safe treatment option.

How It Works

The shockwave therapy procedure typically takes between 15 and 30 minutes to complete, and most patients require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results. As mentioned, during the process, we place a handheld device on the skin over the targeted area and then deliver low-intensity sound waves to the tissue. The treatment is typically painless, and patients can resume their normal activities immediately following the procedure.

Begin With A Consultation

If you're considering shockwave therapy as a treatment option, we recommend starting your journey with a consultation at our Princeton, NJ, office. 

During this time, you'll have the opportunity to meet our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Adam Hamawy.

As a plastic surgeon in the U.S. Army, Dr. Hamawy served as a combat trauma and reconstructive surgeon, helping hundreds of people restore various areas of their bodies. He understands the intricacies of treating and supporting clients on their journeys of healing. With his expertise and the latest, safe procedures, Dr. Hamawy can help you reach your goals and achieve optimal health with shockwave therapy.

Recovery and Results

The recovery process for shockwave therapy is typically minimal, with most patients experiencing little to no downtime. Some patients may experience mild discomfort or bruising at the treatment site, but these side effects usually subside within a few days. We advise patients to avoid strenuous physical activity for the first few days following the procedure to allow the treated area to heal properly. The results of shockwave therapy can vary depending on the condition you are treating and your individual needs. Some patients may experience immediate relief from pain or discomfort, while others may require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results. In general, shockwave therapy has been shown to improve blood flow and stimulate healing in targeted areas of the body, resulting in reduced pain and improved function. For example, in the case of erectile dysfunction, shockwave therapy has been shown to improve erections and sexual function in a significant percentage of patients. Our team at PrincetonMD will work with you to develop a customized treatment plan that meets your unique needs and goals.
