ULTRASHAPE Inc.
ULTRASHAPE is developing a non-invasive alternative to
liposuction, the most commonly performed cosmetic procedure that
was carried out 675,000 times last year in the United States
alone. In contrast to invasive surgical procedures in which
unwanted fat is physically extracted, ULTRASHAPE's transdermal
application of ultrasonic energy causes the targeted rupture of
fat cells. Residual fat tissue is cleared from the body through
natural processes, resulting in a safe outpatient procedure to
replace liposuction, which must be performed under general
anesthesia in the United States, and carries the risks and
potential complications associated with surgery.
ULTRASHAPE's solution consists of an ultrasonic transducer,
developed in house, which targets and destroys fat cells without
the risk of thermal damage, a potential hazard associated with
some forms of liposuction. The transducer provides dual
functionality, also serving as an ultrasonic guidance system that
works in conjunction with an accompanying video imaging system,
enabling precise localization of treatment.
ULTRASHAPE device will lyse 500 cc of fat tissue per treatment,
or about one-fourth of the quantity of tissue that is normally
removed in a single liposuction operation. As a result, the
ULTRASHAPE procedure won't provide results that are as immediate
as those possible with liposuction, since about a month must pass
before each additional procedure can be performed.
