Resumo
Introdução: A maioria dos métodos cirúrgicos de contorno corporal tem sido associados a complicações como dor, edema, recuperação prolongada, cicatrizes, hematomas e riscos de infecções. Essas questões levaram nos últimos anos à um aumento da procura por técnicas não invasivas, principalmente devido a segurança favorável, tempo mínimo de recuperação e custo reduzido, mantendo ainda uma boa eficácia. Os dispositivos não invasivos prometem melhorar a aparência do corpo, removendo o excesso de tecido adiposo em áreas nas quais a gordura persiste, apesar da dieta ideal e da rotina de exercícios. Dentre as técnicas mais procuradas estão : ultrassom focalizado; ultrassom de baixa frequência e baixa intensidade e ultrassom focalizado de alta intensidade (HIFU) que promovem à lipodistrofia. Objetivo: revisar a literatura sobre os efeitos e a eficácia do ultrassom na redução da lipodistrofia localizada. Métodos: Pesquisadas as bases de dados eletrônicas Pubmed e BVS no período de março a maio de 2023, através dos descritores “Redução corporal” e “Terapia por Ultrassom” para seleção dos artigos elegíveis que foram publicados nos últimos 10 anos. Resultados: foram encontrados cinco estudos que estavam de acordo com os critérios pré-estabelecidos para esta revisão. Os estudos selecionados mostraram redução da qualidade da gordura subcutânea, sendo os efeitos do tratamento cumulativos. Conclusão: a terapia por ultrassom foi bem tolerada e eficaz para melhorar às circunferências e diminuir a espessura da gordura das regiões tratadas. No entanto, para confirmarmos todo o potencial clínico destas tecnologias, mais pesquisas serão necessárias.
Introduction: Most surgical methods of body contouring have been associated with complications such as pain, edema, prolonged recovery, scars, bruises and risks of infections. These issues have led in recent years to an increased demand for non-invasive techniques, mainly due to favorable safety, minimal recovery time and reduced cost, while still maintaining good efficacy. Non-invasive devices promise to improve the body's appearance by removing excess adipose tissue in areas where fat persists despite an ideal diet and exercise routine. Among the most popular techniques are: focused ultrasound; lowfrequency, low-intensity ultrasound and high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) that promote lipodystrophy. Objective: To review the literature on the effects and effectiveness of ultrasound in reducing localized lipodystrophy. Methods: The electronic databases Pubmed and VHL from March to May 2023, using the descriptors "Body Reduction" and "Ultrasound Therapy" for selection of eligible articles that were published in the last 10 years. Results: five studies were found that were in accordance with the pre criteria established for this review. The selected studies showed a reduction in the quality of subcutaneous fat, with the effects of treatment being cumulative. Conclusion: ultrasound therapy was well tolerated and effective in improving circumferences and decreasing the thickness of the fat in the treated regions. However, to confirm the full clinical potential of these technologies, more research will be needed.
