Ultra Sonic Treatment using TX1 Technology is an FDA-approved breakthrough technology for those suffering from chronic foot, heel, or ankle tendon damage or problems resulting from diabetes. The process uses ultrasound imaging to view and remove damaged tissue and, thus, provides pain relief. Developed in collaboration with Mayo Clinic, the treatment is minimally invasive, precise, speeds recovery time, and over 20 scientific studies have proven high success rates.

Chronic tendon damage can occur immediately  from an injury or over time from repetitive motions doing daily routines. This type of tendon damage, including Achilles tendonitis, responds very favorably to Ultra Sonic Treatment using TX1 Technology. Also, treatment offers pain relief for conditions like plantar fasciitis or diabetic foot ulcers.

Candidates

Ideal candidates are those who have sought prior treatment, including steroid injections, rest, immobilization, and physical therapy with little or no pain relief.

 

Process

Tenex Laser Treatment

The process is conducted in an outpatient setting and takes about 30 minutes. A local anesthetic is given, then ultrasound imaging identifies the damaged scar tissue within the tendon. A small incision is made along the affected area utilizing a small instrument with a needle-like point. High frequency vibrations break up the scar tissue.

The instrument uses ultrasound technology that is designed to target damaged tissue while avoiding healthy cells. The Ultra Sonic Treatment using TX1 Technology system gently breaks up then removes scar tissue. The incision is small so it is closed with an adhesive bandage, thus avoiding stitches and scarring from stitches.

The majority of patients drive themselves home. The recovery period last 4 – 6 weeks. Many say they feel little or no pain during treatment. And relief occurs more quickly than traditional general anesthesia surgery at a lower overall cost of care and quicker return to activities.
