This article reads like an advertisement. "Melt" fat? The only fat I ever saw melt was on a stove at 300 degrees F. I had one friend try this kind of treatment. Her results? NO IMPROVEMENT. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.65.217.189 (talk) 01:48, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
I cut the descriptions and added academic references. Timetraveler3.14 (talk) 22:19, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
I removed references to injection lipolysis. First, I believe that injections by strict definition are surgical. I would want a practitioner to have sufficient surgical training to know the anatomy and principles of sterility before performing an injection. For comparison, in the US at least, Botox is performed by physicians. Second, injection lipolysis is in a completely different class of treatments from these transcutaneous devices. The transcutaneous devices operate on similar principles, and have sufficiently extensive research backing to be FDA approved. Finally, injection lipolysis has its own article already, and doesn't need to be rehashed in this one. AlphaAntares (talk) 10:30, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
