With an increased interest in nonsurgical and minimally invasive body fat reduction and body contouring procedures with limited side effects and downtime, cryolipolysis has emerged as a compelling and safe alternative to surgical fat removal methods. A massage of the treated areas generally follows cryolipolysis treatment to improve blood circulation and increase apoptotic fat cells' removal. In this study, following cryolipolysis, we used shockwave therapy instead of massage to enhance the results of the body contouring treatment and improve the patient's comfort. We then assessed patients' comfort and satisfaction using the combination of cryolipolysis and shockwave therapy in reducing fat volume. Ler mais
The use of hyaluronic acid soft tissue fillers in aesthetic medicine exploded in recent years for many reasons, including being relatively safe. Incidence of delayed inflammatory reactions (DIRs) to hyaluronic acid soft tissue fillers range between 0.3% and 4.25%. These reactions are mediated by T-lymphocytes and can be triggered by flu-like illnesses, including SARS-CoV-2 infection. Vaccination may also induce hypersensitivity. Ler mais
