First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a device that delivers targeted sound waves (shockwave therapy) can reduce hard scar tissue that sometimes forms after breast surgery. Researchers will enroll 100 adults who have firmness in their breast tissue after plastic surgery. They will measure changes in scar size and pain over time. The goal is to find a non-invasive way to improve recovery and comfort.

Active substance

Pulsed Acoustic Cellular Expression therapy (shockwave device)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a non-invasive way to reduce scar tissue and pain after breast surgery.

What could go wrong

This is an early, single-center study with no control group, so results may not be conclusive. The therapy might not reduce fibrosis or could cause discomfort.
