However, as the desired effect on the subcutaneous fat tissue could not be achieved with high-frequency ultrasound during the treatment of lipodystrophy, low-frequency ultrasound is now used in this field. Ultrasound technology is noninvasive , does not utilize radiation and does not cause complications such as bleeding, infections or other reactions frequently caused by chemical substances. A clinical study was conducted with the objective of determining the effectiveness of low-frequency ultrasound in the treatment of subcutaneous fat tissue. Low-frequency, ultrasonic waves have important effects >> De-polymerization or the molecular dislocation of the trigylcerides and the increase of their fluidity >> Lipolysis or the ejection of fatty acids from the adipocyte cells due to stable cavitations and increased adipocyte cellular permeability. >> Adipocyte lysis (dissolving of the adipocyte cells) >> De-fibrosis through antifibrotic, mechanical effect on tissue in the hypo- dermis
