Sound waves for cellulite: Emtone, D-Actor or shockwave?

The short answer

D-Actor is one shockwave device: strong sound-wave pulses that tap the skin. Emtone adds gentle radiofrequency heat to pressure waves at the same time, and all of them aim at the look of cellulite, with little downtime and results that are not permanent.
