Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Open-label, baseline-controlled, multi-center study evaluating a 1060 nm diode laser, pulsed electromagnetic fields and vacuum assisted radio frequency for non-invasive fat reduction of the abdomen and flanks.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Open-label, baseline-controlled, multi-center study evaluating a 1060 nm diode laser, pulsed electromagnetic fields, and vacuum-assisted radio frequency for non-invasive fat reduction of the abdomen and flanks. The study will enroll up to 200 subjects requesting non-invasive lipolysis of the abdomen and flanks. Each subject will receive 3 study treatments of the diode laser and 3 treatments of the pulsed electromagnetic fields and vacuum assisted radio frequency. Subjects will be followed at twelve weeks post-final diode treatment. The twelve-week post-treatment outcome will be compared to the baseline.

Treatment group receiving 3 diode treatments and 3 RF/PEMF treatments at Week 0, 8 and 16 with a follow-up at Week 24.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Venus Bliss

Intervention Type DEVICE

The FDA cleared device (Venus Bliss™) is a non-invasive medical aesthetic device designed for body contouring. The device is comprised of a console, four 1060 nm diode laser applicators (60 mm x 60 mm). A belt is included to allow the operator to secure the laser applicators on the lipolysis treatment area, allowing hands free operation. The device uses vacuum assisted radiofrequency (RF) and PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) technology which has been shown in clinical studies to be safe and effective in body circumferential reduction and skin tightening.
