Methodology

  • Participants: 39 women with cellulite, of whom 37 (95%) completed the protocol.
  • Protocol: 8 weekly sessions of TriPollar radiofrequency on the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and arms.
  • Variables: weight, circumference, subcutaneous tissue thickness, skin elasticity, photographs, and physician assessment by quartile.
  • Assessments: at baseline, at the end of treatment, and 4 weeks later.

Results

  • Mean reduction in abdominal circumference of 3.5 cm (p = 0.002).
  • Mean reduction in thigh circumference of 1.7 cm (p = 0.002).
  • The reductions in the abdomen and thighs were maintained 4 weeks after treatment.
  • Improvement of around 50% in the appearance of cellulite according to the physicians' assessment.
  • In the buttocks and arms, the reduction in circumference was not significant.

Relationship with TriPollar POSE Vx

The study was conducted with a professional device, but it uses the same TriPollar multi-radiofrequency as TriPollar POSE Vx, which also adds DMA (Dynamic Muscle Activation). The results of this study correspond to the cabin device.

Conclusiones

The study demonstrates that TriPollar radiofrequency reduces the circumference of the abdomen and thighs and improves the appearance of cellulite, with results maintained 4 weeks after treatment.

TriPollar POSE Vx complements the usual cosmetic routine and cosmetic and medico-aesthetic treatments.
