Summary
This trial is testing whether electrical muscle stimulation, a diode laser, pulsed electromagnetic field, or vacuum assisted radio frequency can help with fat reduction, body contouring, and aesthetic improvement.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for men and women aged 18-65 with a BMI of ≤30 kg/m2 who are not currently changing their abdominal exercise routine. Participants must consent to the study's terms and cannot have had recent surgery or skin conditions in the treatment area, be pregnant or nursing, have immune deficiencies, bleeding disorders, certain chronic diseases, tattoos in the treatment area, or be on drugs that affect bleeding or cause light sensitivity.
What is being tested?
The study tests electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), a 1064 nm diode laser, pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF), and radio frequency (RF) treatments using Venus Bliss Max for non-invasive body contouring and fat reduction. It's a multi-center trial where participants are randomly assigned to one of three groups without knowing which group they're in.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort at the treatment site, redness or swelling, bruising from RF/PEMF application; however specific side effects will depend on individual reactions to EMS and laser treatments.
