|
Localized fat and cellulate have not only esthetic but health problem, they are treated by surgical or non-surgical method. There are elecro-acupuncture, ultrasound, radio frequency, endermologie, mesotherapy, and carbon dioxide therapy in prevalent non-surgical treatments. We reviewed the studies on them to analyze their seicntific evidence. The studies are not many. They reported good results of circumference loss or appearance improvement of histologic change but most of them have poor study design. Before marketing or using these modalities, it is ontcal to evaluate to their effectiveness through strict and scientific clinical trials.
