Ultrasound energy can successfully treat fine lines and wrinkles, as well as lift the eyebrow and submentum. Ultrasound waves of high intensity induce thermal injury in the dermis with subsequent tissue remodeling.
To examine the utility of a novel ultrasound device that utilizes high-intensity, high-frequency, parallel ultrasound beams to improve the clinical appearance of cellulite on the thighs and buttocks.
A prospective, multicenter, clinical study investigated this novel ultrasound device using 2 treatments.
Sixty-five subjects completed both treatments. The mean age was 46 years, and 100% were women. Fitzpatrick skin types I to VI were represented. Assessments compared 3-month follow-up with baseline. Two blinded reviewers agreed in identifying pretreatment and post-treatment photographs for 89.2%. For Cellulite Severity Scale rating, there was significant improvement of 1.61 units ( p < .001). For cellulite Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS), 89.2% had improvement, with a mean of 0.87 units ( p < .001). For Laxity Scale rating, there was significant improvement of 0.70 units ( p < .001). For skin laxity GAIS, 89.2% had improvement, with a mean of 0.76 units ( p < .001). No device-related adverse events occurred.
A novel ultrasound device that utilizes high-intensity, high-frequency, parallel ultrasound beams can safely and effectively improve the clinical appearance of cellulite on the thighs and buttocks.
超声能量可成功治疗细纹和皱纹，还能提升眉毛和颏下部位。高强度超声波会在真皮层引发热损伤，随后促使组织重塑。
研究一种新型超声设备的效用，该设备利用高强度、高频、平行超声波束改善大腿和臀部橘皮组织的临床表现。
一项前瞻性、多中心临床研究使用该新型超声设备进行了两种治疗。
65名受试者完成了两种治疗。平均年龄为46岁，所有受试者均为女性。涵盖了Fitzpatrick皮肤分型I至VI型。评估将3个月随访结果与基线进行了比较。两名盲法评审员对89.2%的治疗前和治疗后照片的识别结果一致。对于橘皮组织严重程度量表评分，有显著改善，提高了1.61个单位（p <.001）。对于橘皮组织整体美学改善量表（GAIS），89.2%的受试者有改善，平均改善0.87个单位（p <.001）。对于松弛量表评分，有显著改善，提高了0.70个单位（p <.001）。对于皮肤松弛GAIS，89.2%的受试者有改善，平均改善0.76个单位（p <.001）。未发生与设备相关的不良事件。
一种利用高强度、高频、平行超声波束的新型超声设备能够安全有效地改善大腿和臀部橘皮组织的临床表现。
