ABSTRACT Objectives: In recent years in Brazil has increased significantly the use of lipoclasia dermosonic (LCD, subcutaneous lipolysis by ultrasound) as a treatment for skin disorders, especially lipodystrophy gynoid. However, the systemic effects of prolonged use of the LCD are not yet well established. In this study the objective was to investigate the cardiovascular and metabolic effects of prolonged use of LCD for reduction of subcutaneous fat in female rats. Methods and Results: Healthy female rats (Wistar) were divided into two groups, named control (n=20) and treated with LCD (n=20). After 10 days, ½ of the female rats in both experimental groups were sacrificed and evaluated; the others remained for another 10 days washout period for the effects of the LCD. For the treatment of animals used were 10 applications of LCD on alternate days, the following parameters: ISATA= 3MHz, 1W.cm-2, pulsed mode (2ms ON: OFF 8ms), cycle 30% for 3 minutes in 3cm2 of inguinal subcutaneous adipose tissue. Cardiovascular and metabolic parameters were evaluated during stages of the study. Body composition was measured using bioimpedance and bilateral lipectomy, and biochemical profile and inflammatory response plasma were determined. The LDC reduces (P<0.05) body composition and fat deposits, changes the cardiovascular parameters (P<0.05), causes dyslipidemia and peripheral insulin resistance with increased inflammatory response in healthy female rats. Conclusions: The LCD shows potential as an inducer of subcutaneous lipolysis, however, prolonged use appears to increase the cardiometabolic risk factors in female rats.
