Our investigation covered 23 healthy women aged between 27-53 with excess abdominal fat deposits.No special diet was given to the patients.
It was only recommended to take once a week 1500 g. of fruits divided into 4 equal portions during the day.
From February 2011 to July 2011, ten sessions of Acupuncture + Mesotherapy were carried out once a week.
Subcutaneous injections at 5-10 mm depth, using needles 27G and injecting 0.2 ml MD-Matrix in the following acu-points:
Measurements of the circumference on the level of the umbilicus was taken before starting the treatment, at the beginning of every next session and at the end of the therapy.
Results
All patients have obtained an objective reduction of the localized abdominal fat deposits.
• 2 subjects (8.7%) reduction of umbilical circumference 3.0 cm.
• 4 subjects (17.4%) reduction of circumference 4.5 cm.
• 3 subjects (13.0%) reduction of circumference 5.5 cm.
• 7 subjects (30.4%) reduction of circumference 6.5 cm.
• 4 subjects (17.4%) reduction of circumference 7.0 cm.
• 1 subject (4.3%) reduction of circumference 8.5 cm.
• 1 subject (4.3%) reduction of circumference 9.0 cm.
• 1 subject (4.3%) reduction of circumference 11.5 cm.
