Criolipólise e associações terapêuticas na gordura localizada e flacidez

Abstract

The clinical conditions of localized abdominal fat and flaccidity affect a large portion of the population worldwide, affecting aesthetics and producing risks to the health of this population. Some invasive and non-invasive therapies can reverse these conditions, including surgical treatment (invasive), liposuction (invasive), Cryolipolysis (non-invasive), Ultrasound (non-invasive) and many others. A prominent innovation among these therapies has been Cryolipolysis, widely used alone or in combination. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the association of Cryolipolysis with other aesthetic procedures that represent an innovative and effective approach to improve the efficiency of treatments, offering more comprehensive and satisfactory results. METHODS: Integrative, qualitative, basic, and descriptive literature review. RESULTS: 16 scientific articles were consulted in the Lilacs, Medline and Scielo databases, published between 2019 and 2024, in English and Portuguese. DISCUSSION: Cryolipolysis associated with other types of therapeutic practices, such as Injection Lipolysis, Radial Shock Wave, Ultrasound, Drainage, and others, is highly efficient in reversing clinical conditions of localized abdominal fat and pre-existing sagging or in preventing post-procedure sagging. CONCLUSION: It is concluded that, in cases involving the reversal of localized abdominal fat, it is important to use many therapies that contribute to minimizing or reversing local sagging, and the ideal protocol for each case must be evaluated.
