Traditional Surgery: Involved anesthesia risks, infection possibilities, scarring, and extended recovery
Early Minimally Invasive Procedures: Reduced some risks but still involved incisions and potential complications
Modern Non-Invasive Technologies: No incisions, no anesthesia, minimal risks, immediate recovery
Safety Milestones:
2002: First cryolipolysis studies demonstrated selective fat cell destruction
2010: FDA clearance for non-invasive fat reduction devices
2015: Advancements in real-time temperature monitoring
2020-Present: Integration of AI safety protocols and enhanced client monitoring
