Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) is a new non-invasive treatment that is heralded as the most effective and advanced treatment available that is approved by the FDA. The new technology can generally treat acute or chronic musculoskeletal pain or pain that greatly debilitates mobility or quality of life. Specific areas treatable include:
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) revolves primarily around using a particular set of pressure waves that encourages the metabolism, improves blood circulation and speeds up the healing process. In turn, damaged tissue regenerates and heals. As a non-invasive office-based procedure, Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) represents a great advancement in treatment options for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions.
Expected Results
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) eliminates pain and restores full mobility, therefore improving quality of life. The benefits of Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) are typically experienced after only 3 treatments. Immediate pain relief is sometimes reported after treatment, though generally pain relief can take up to 4 weeks to begin. Over 80% of patients treated report being pain free and/or experiencing a significant reduction in pain.
Side Effects
Non-invasive Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) has virtually no risks or side effects. In rare cases, patients may experience minor discomfort for a few days. Slight residual pain after intense exercise or a full day of work is normal.
Safety
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) is safe. The technology is FDA approved and has had extensive clinical studies and tests confirm its safety and efficacy. Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) was originally developed in Europe and is currently in use around the globe. If administered by a qualified professional, Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) has virtually no risks or side effects.
Treatment Duration
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) treatment sessions take approximately 5-10 minutes. Time depends on the disorder being treated. Generally, 3 treatment sessions are needed at weekly intervals.
Treatment Application
To enhance effectiveness, coupling gel is applied to the treatment area. After applying the gel, Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) pressure waves are released via the applicator which is moved over the area in a circular motion.
Why Consider Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT)
Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) has a proven success rate that is equal to or greater than that of traditional treatment methods (including surgery) and without the risks, complications and prolonged recovery period. Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) is performed in your podiatrist’s office, does not require anesthesia, and requires a minimal amount of time. Patients who use this method can immediately bear weight (i.e. walk) and return to normal activity within a few days of the procedure.

Those who live with unwanted leg veins can call Boston Common Podiatry, Skin & Wellness. We use Cutera XEO laser technology for leg vein removal and to remove vascular lesions as well as unwanted veins without surgery.
LEG VEIN REMOVAL WITH THE PRECISION OF CUTERA XEO TECHNOLOGY
We offer non-surgical treatment alternatives that can treat a wide array of skin and vein irregularities and conditions.
WHY THE LEGS?
The reason unwanted veins appear often on the legs is largely due to the pressure of your body weight, force of gravity, and the cumbersome task of carrying the blood from the legs to the heart. Unwanted veins are usually treated as cosmetic concerns, but it is common for spider and leg veins to cause the following medical problems:
Leg veins are most often found on:
SPIDER VEINS

Spider Vein Causes:
An estimated ⅓ of the adult female population lives with unwanted leg veins but we can help!
CUTERA XEO LASER TECHNOLOGY
Cutera XEO represents the gold-standard in laser treatment. We can precisely target blood in the damaged blood vessel, causing it to coagulate and collapse. The body’s own biological process will repair surrounding areas and absorb the collapsed blood vessel naturally.
A cooling hand piece makes the process comfortable and safe. During your leg vein treatment, we’ll apply direct energy to the vein, collapsing and eliminating it. Bruising might occur in the treatment area and can last for a few weeks. Cutera XEO remains the optimum non-invasive treatment on the market for vascular lesions and blemishes.
