Background:
Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive method capable of reducing the thickness of the fat layer.
Objective:
To evaluate the effects of cryolipolysis with the use of plate applicators in the treatment of abdominal fat in women.
Materials And Methods:
The sample was composed of 15 participants, who were evaluated before and at the end of the intervention. Three applications of cryolipolysis were performed in the infraumbilical portion of the abdominal region. The volunteers were divided into three groups G-1 (temperature of -2°C), G-2 (temperature of -3°C) and G3 (temperature of -4°C).
Results:
There was a reduction in plicometry measurements in groups G2 and G3, in the comparison between the initial and final moments (p <0.05), and a reduction in perimetry and ultrasound (p < 0.05) in all groups. It was found that the G3 group was subject to higher risk of first degree burns and redness when compared to the other groups.
Conclusion:
It is suggested that plate cryolipolysis is a possibly effective resource for reducing adiposity, as shown in the evaluation of perimetry, plicometry, and ultrasound results, and in the photographic analysis.
