“…Heat is generated when the inherent tissue resistance (impedance) to the passage of electrons converts the electric current to thermal energy. This reaction is determined by Ohm's Law: Energy (J) = I 2 × R × T (where I = current, R = tissue impedance and T = time of application). High impedance tissues, such as subcutaneous fat, generate more heat.…”

“…Among the unesthetic disorders, laxity, especially in the skin, is one that has great impact on the function and quality of life. 2 A lax tissue is the result of biomolecular changes, and the damage due to collagen fibers change is closely involved in this process. 3 …”

“…A obesidade e o aumento da circunferência abdominal sobrecarregam o coração, aumentando o risco de doenças cardíacas e acidente vascular encefálico. Essa sobrecarga cardíaca pode ser minimizada com mudanças no estilo de vida, técnicas cognitivocomportamentais, farmacoterapia, fisioterapia dermatofuncional e cirurgia bariátrica [4][5][6].…”

“…(SANTOS, 2017;BHARDWAJ;CHOUHAN;MADAL, 2018). A pele separa o organismo do ambiente externo e é dividida em duas camadas: a derme, originada do mesoderma, e a epiderme, originada do ectoderma (MENDONÇA & RODRIGUES, 2011;STOCCO;FARIA., 2014;ZHANG et al, 2012;BHARDWAJ;CHOUHAN;MADAL, 2018). Do ponto de vista funcional, a pele oferece proteção contra desidratação, raios UV, lesões, fricção e invasão bacteriana, regula a temperatura corporal, recebe informações do ambiente externo e sintetiza a vitamina D. Ela é constituída externamente pela epiderme e internamente pela pele derme.…”
