Obesity epidemic is reaching epic proportions worldwide. As per the data released by the World Health Organisation, there are more than 1.2 billion overweight adults, twenty years or older in the world today.

It is in this context that there is a huge market for slimming devices all over the world.
There are a number of slimming devices available in the market presently. Some of them use the technology of Cryolipolysis. In this technology, fat is removed through the process of freezing. It has been established that fat is more vulnerable to cold than the surrounding tissues, so through the process of Cryolipolysis fat cells can be forced to die on their own, without affecting the nearby structures. The other technology that is used by slimming devices is the Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT).
In this technology, a laser beam is used to create a hole in the fat cells, causing them to deflate. After being punctured, the fat or lipids present in the cells flow out of the cell through the body’s lymphatic system and are excreted out of the body.
nother technology used by slimming devices is the Focused Ultrasound. In this procedure, fat layers in the body are exposed to ultrasound waves, wherein the fat cells are attacked by the sound waves causing them to heat up and then ultimately such cells die off. Since the ultrasound waves are directed only on the fat layer, there is no damage to the surrounding tissues, and the dead fat cells are carried away by the lymphatic system of the body.
Besides these technologies, there is the technology of radiofrequency used by the slimming devices. In this technology, specific radiofrequency causes deep and controlled heated of the targeted fat layers while also tightening the tissues, causing increased collagen synthesis and improving circulation of blood in the body. This technology of radiofrequency thus provides three benefits at once, those of fat loss, cellulite reduction and tightening of sagging skin.
