Objectives: Mode of action of Microwaves on
-Body shaping /Adipolysis
-Cellulite
-Skin sagging
Place in a medical indication: subcutaneous lipomas
Introduction: Body shapingg uses different techniques, including cryolipolysis, radiofrequency, HIFU (High Intensity Focalised Ultrasounds), surgery and also microwaves.
This new technology makes it possible to treat localized fat, cellulite and skin laxity.
There is also a case of lipoma treated with this technique reported
Materials / method: Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic currents (in the range of 1 to 100 GHz) that cause a localized increase in fat tissue temperature through a selective increase in molecular oscillation.The magnetic field delivered by microwaves in biological tissue causes a permanent disturbance in the alignment of molecules. The resulting high friction between the cells produces oscillation and vibration phenomena, resulting in the heating of the tissues to 50-55°C ,allowing a remodeling and a non-invasive treatment of localized fats, without danger to the skin.
Results: The results of a study evaluating the effect of 4 microwave sessions at one week intervals (1) showed, at week 8, a median reduction in abdominal circumference of 3.90 cm (extremes 7-1.5 cm) at the abdominal level and 2.8 cm at the trochanteric level (extremes 2.5-3)(Bonan, P., Marini, L., & Lotti, T. (2018)).
the presentation provides also some personal illustrations of the effectiveness of the technique on the arms and buttocks skin laxity, and one case of subcutaneous lipoma
Results after one year experience
Conclusion: Microwaves are an active technique on localized fat, cellulite, skin sagging. It is not very time-consuming (8-10 minutes per 15 x 15 cm area), painless and has few side effects. It can be used alone, or as a complement to cryolipolysis, associated with the latter, in case of failure or rebound effect, or if the area to be treated is not compatible with the cryolipolysis handpieces.
It could be also interesting to use this method to reduce subcutaneous lipomas .
