Shockwave therapy for C-section scars
Every birth is an incredible effort for the mother and the female body. And if a cesarean section is carried out, moms also have to cope with surgery.

To make everyday life with your baby easier, the scar must heal well. First and foremost, the gynecologist takes care of this during the birth.
Afterwards, I come into play with shockwave therapy: The shock wave improves tissue healing. Cell metabolism is activated, stem cells are attracted and new blood vessels are formed.
Both the superficial skin scar and the deep muscle and tissue layers heal much better. Healing of the abdominal wall musculature and their sliding layers is improved.
Excessive scar formation (keloid) and scar discolorations are significantly reduced.
We can start treatment already one week after the birth of your baby. You can relax, as therapy is carried out while you lie down.
Most patients achieve a satisfying result with 3 to 5 sessions delivered at an interval of 1 to 2 weeks. This involves the delivery of 1000-3000 shockwave pulses per session in the scar area. The treatment lasts ten minutes per session and is painless.
As a father of 3 kids, I know that new moms don’t want to or can’t leave the house without their baby. Therefore, just bring your newborn with you to therapy! You can put your baby on your chest or breastfeed it.
This is the advantage of being an elective doctor, we have time and don’t have to hurry. This is good for you, for your baby and for your therapy!
