Advances in minimally invasive and noninvasive treatments for submental fat.
Submental fat (SMF) accumulation is a cosmetically distressing concern for which there have been recent advances in minimally invasive and noninvasive therapeutic options. In this article, we review the newest treatments available for SMF, including laser-assisted lipolysis (LAL), radiofrequency (RF)-assisted lipolysis, deoxycholic acid (DCA), and noninvasive devices. These treatments provide a...

INTRODUCTION: Deoxycholic acid currently approved only for minimally invasive treatment of submental fat. The effects of deoxycholic acid on fat need not be limited to submental fat and represents an opportunity to treat undesired fat in many other body parts.1 Injection lipolysis has the potential risks of skin loss/necrosis, hyperpigmentation, neovascular response, and contour irregularities....
متن کاملSafety and Efficacy of Bilateral Submental Cryolipolysis With Quantified 3-Dimensional Imaging of Fat Reduction and Skin Tightening.
Importance Cryolipolysis is a popular, well-tolerated nonsurgical procedure that uses controlled cooling to selectively destroy fat cells. Central submental cryolipolysis has been reported to be safe and effective, but many patients would benefit from extending this treatment over the entire submental region. Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of cryolipolysis for reduction of l...
