Combined Monopolar Radiofrequency and Targeted Pressure Energy for the Treatment and Improvement of Cellulite Appearance on Multiple Body Parts.

ABSTRACT:

Background

With many treatments available for managing cellulite, non-invasive procedures are increasingly sought after. Radiofrequency (RF) and targeted pressure energy (TPE) are new techniques developed to counter aesthetic signs of aging. The combination of RF and TPE for cellulite thus requires a more robust investigation.

Objective

We sought to determine the effectiveness and safety of combined/simultaneous RF and TPE for skin tightening and reducing the appearance of cellulite.

Methods

Thirty subjects aged 46.5±9.0 (31-74) years, BMI 19.8-36kg/m2 were enrolled and treated for cellulite on the hips, thighs, abdomen and arms. Each subject received four treatments, over 2 to 4 consecutive weeks. The circumference of the treated areas was measured at baseline, after
