Abstract:
Since ancient times human beings have been conceiving methods that could help reduce the accumulation of undesired fat tissue in their own bodies. Lipocryolysis has already been recognized as an therapy for localized fat reduction by means of a combination of regulated and controlled vacuum and heat extraction therapy. This study was designed to quantify the claimed reduction of local adiposities. For this purpose, 16 treatments were analysed. The data suggested that lipocryolysis is effective for localized reduction of adiposities and that the reduction obtained are measurable.
