Effects of Red Light LED Therapy on Body Contouring
- Conditions
- Obesity
- Registration Number
- NCT03470272
- Lead Sponsor
- Manamed Inc.
- Brief Summary
Red light laser therapy using 635nm red light laser technology has previously been shown to cause lipolysis in subcutaneous fat as a non-surgical method to promote weight loss and body contouring. This study hypothesizes that red LED light therapy using 650nm red light LED (light emitting diode) technology produces similar results to the laser device (red LASER 635nm) when preformed using a specified treatment protocol.
- Detailed Description
Red light laser therapy using 635nm red light laser technology has previously been shown to cause lipolysis in subcutaneous fat as a non-surgical method to promote weight loss and body contouring. This study hypothesizes that red LED light therapy using 650nm red light LED (light emitting diode) technology produces similar results to the laser device (red LASER 635nm) when preformed using a specified treatment protocol.
Furthermore, it is hypothesized that the Vevazz therapy program achieves the results after one 28 minute treatment period. The predicate 635nm LED device (Photonica Professional by Ward Photonics) achieves its results after one 32 minute therapy program.
The FB Professional therapy program uses the FB Professional LED device for fat removal using LED red light therapy. This multi-site study reviews results from 70 randomly selected patients after a single treatment using the FB Professional LED device.
