High-intensity focused ultrasound treatment after cryolipolysis may be used to reduce pain: Two case report

Abstract

In recent years, interest in body sculpting has increased and various technologies have been used and developed. In the present study. we assessed the efficacy and safety of combination treatment using high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and cryolipolysis. The findings show that not only HIFU but also combination treatments are safe and well-tolerated options for the treatment of central abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT). Interestingly, the pain associated with HIFU when it was performed after cryolipolysis was significantly reduced.
