Efficacy of focused radiofrequency with ultrasound in body contouring: A study of 64 patients.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Energy-based devices are increasingly used for noninvasive body contouring. Our aim was to investigate the clinical efficacy of combined radiofrequency and ultrasound device for reduction in body circumference in various body parts. AIMS:The aim of our study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of combined focused radiofrequency and ultrasound device for reduction in body circumference in various body parts. We aimed to report objective measurements in terms of circumference reduction and patient satisfaction scores. METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed data of 64 patients who were treated with focused radiofrequency and ultrasound device during August 2017-December 2019. All patients had received 4 sessions at one-week interval. Body circumference measurements were done before treatment and one month after the last session. Patients were also asked to score their satisfaction with the result of treatment on a scale of 1 to 5. RESULTS:Abdomen was treated in 40 patients, thighs in 18 patients, and arms in 7 patients. One patient had received treatments to both abdomen and thighs. Circumference measurements in all body parts differed significantly between baseline and one month after the 4th session. Patients were satisfied with the result of treatment (score: 4.48 ± 0.66). No adverse events were noted. CONCLUSIONS:Focused radiofrequency and ultrasound combination is a safe and effective treatment modality for body contouring. Patients should be informed about moderate degrees of improvement.
