Females who have been surgically sterilized (hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy) or who are postmenopausal (e.g., defined as at least 50 years with equal to or longer than 12 months of amenorrhea with a follicle stimulating hormone >40 IU/L) are considered to be of non-childbearing potential. Subjects who are not of childbearing potential are not required to use contraception.

2. Subject diagnosed with coagulation disorders or is receiving anticoagulant/antiplatelet therapy or medications or dietary supplements, which impede coagulation or platelet aggregation.

3. Subject has diabetes or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) equal to or greater than 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) or fasting blood sugar (FBS) equal to or greater than 7 mmol/L.

5. Subject with active or prior history of malignancies or being worked-up for a possible malignancy within 5 years before Screening.

6. Subject with a history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C infections, or subjects with active HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C infections at Screening.
a. Active HIV infection: positive HIV Ag/Ab combo test,
b. Active hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection: positive HBV surface antigen (HBsAg). Subjects with negative HBsAg but with positive HBV core antibody, with or without positive HBV surface antibody will also be excluded. However, subjects with negative HBsAg, negative HBV core antibody, and positive HBV surface antibody may be included,
c. Active hepatitis C virus (HCV): positive HCV antibody.

7. Subject has abnormal skin or local skin conditions at the treatment area, which in the opinion of Investigator, is inappropriate to participate in the study, including but not limited to any of the following:
a. Skin manifestations of a systemic disease,
b. Any abnormality of the skin or soft tissues of the abdominal wall in the area to be treated,
c. Skin or superficial tissue that does not lie flat on its own when the subject is in the supine position,
d. Sensory loss or dysesthesia in the area to be treated,
e. Evidence of any cause of enlargement in the abdominal area other than localized subcutaneous fat,
f. Tattoos on the area to be treated.

8. Subject who has hernia.

9. Subject who has undergone the following procedures:
a. Previous open or laparoscopic abdominal surgery in the anticipated treatment area,
b. Cardiac pacemakers or any implantable electrical device,
