| Summary: | Introduction: Cryolipolysis produces selective, controlled cooling, and it's based on the concept that lipid-rich tissue is more susceptible to cold injury, reducing subcutaneous fat. Objective: To review the literature to assess the effectiveness of cryolipolysis in reducing subcutaneous fat. Methods: Systematic review with meta-analysis of studies published in the EBSCOhost, LILACS, and PUBMED databases. Results: Only one study did not present significant reduction in subcutaneous fat compared to the control group.There was a difference among the parameters in the studies. Conclusion: Cryolipolysis is an effective tool for localized fat reduction. |
