Body contouring: the skinny on noninvasive fat removal.

Semin Cutan Med Surg. 2012 Jun;31(2):121-5

Authors: Jalian HR, Avram MM

Abstract
Historically, the approach to body contouring has largely involved invasive procedures, such as liposuction. Recently, several new devices for noninvasive fat removal have received clearance by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of focal adiposity. Modalities are aimed primarily at targeting the physical properties of fat that differentiate it from the overlying epidermis and dermis, thus selectively resulting in removal. This review will focus on 3 novel approaches to noninvasive selective destruction of fat.
