Plate cryolipolysis in dynamic and static mode associated with other technologies in the treatment of cellulite
Background: Cellulite or Gynoid lipodystrophy is an aesthetic alteration that affects a large proportion of women. Among the alterations resulting from its establishment, metabolic and hormonal alterations are shown to be the main ones and are also associated with the lifestyle of everyone. The literature demonstrates a therapeutic approach that uses different technologies to reverse both local adiposity and the tissue appearance presented externally, which significantly compromises female aesthetics. Among the existing protocols, there are reports referring to the use of endermotherapy and shock waves, but there is still no evidence regarding the use of cryolipolysis in two different application modes, dynamic and static, for this type of condition. Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate an integrative protocol combining the application of plate cryolipolysis, in dynamic and static mode, in association with endermotherapy and shock waves in the treatment of grade 3 gynoid lipodystrophy. Materials and Methods: The methods used for evaluation were measurement of body weight, perimeter of the waist, hip and lower limb regions and digital photography to compare before and after treatment. Results: The results found demonstrated a reduction in localized adiposity mainly in the saddlebag region, improvement of nodules and the “orange peel” appearance triggered by the increase in subdermal papillae, and reversal of the tissue sagging diagnosed in the initial anamnesis. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, it is possible to conclude that the use of cryolipolysis in dynamic and static modes associated with other technologies such as ultrasound and shock waves is effective in treating cellulite and reducing body measurements. Therefore, the protocol used can be considered an integrative aesthetic approach, validating the importance of prescribing individualized clinical protocols.
