The traditional method produced less reversible cellular damage (swelling) than laser lipolysis using 1,000 J (in). The area receiving 3,000 J (in) showed major irreversible damage (cytoplasmatic retraction and disruption of membranes). For this reason, the mean diameter of the adipocyte was less.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
