In our eat-and-run,
massive-portion-sized culture, maintaining a healthy weight can be tough—and
losing weight, even tougher. Losing the accumulated fat is not easy. Busy
schedule at work place, increase in sedentary lifestyle, stress etc has
developed unhealthy eating habits among most of them. Consumption of fast food
and junk has increased as they are easily accessible and better taste wise. Obesity is a constant disease recently
qualified by the World Health Organization as an epidemic of this century. World
Health Organization (WHO), also states that 1.2 billion people worldwide are
officially classified as overweight. This is probably the most sedentary
generation of people in the history of the world.
People who are overweight
may have the symptoms of the medical conditions like coronary artery (heart)
disease, depression, diabetes, gallbladder or liver disease, joint disease (e.g., osteoarthritis), stroke.
High blood pressure, high cholesterol levels, breathing problems, etc. are
common. The more obese a person is, the more likely they are to have health
problems. Aside from the medical complications, obesity is also linked to
psychosocial problems such as low self - esteem, discrimination, difficulty
finding employment, and reduced quality of life. Although a person's genetic
makeup may contribute to obesity, it's not the primary cause. Environmental and
behavioral factors have a greater influence.
In the Indian scenario, even
with the growing awareness about health and fitness, more than 3% (3 crores) of
the Indian population is obese, as per Obese Foundation India. There is an
urgent need to create public awareness about the mechanisms of identification,
prevention and treatment of severe obesity than ever before.
Observing the trends over past decade has witness invention of
technologies in order to cope up with the scenario and growing need. Indian
wellness industry witnessed many such new techniques year on year to treat and
help people for weight loss. Non-surgical liposuction is an alternative to
surgical liposuction, in which fat is reduced using various technologies which
attempt to melt and liquify a person's fat cells using non-invasive methods
such as ultrasonic, lasers and injections of chemical agents. Non-surgical liposuction may
be used on various areas of the human body Tummy, Sides, Hips, Thighs, Arms,
Saddlebag, Calf, Upper Back, Lower Back, B-line, Face &Chin.
The wellness industry witnessed rapid technology innovation. There are
three basic technologies used: laser, ultrasound waves and "CoolLipo"
laser. The laser technologies are differentiated mainly by the wavelength of
light used. Ultrasound fat reduction is readily gaining popularity as the
safest non-surgical method to remove fat from the body. Below are the
techniques for non surgical fat loss:
Ultrasound fat reduction i.e.
U-Lipo is a
latest non-invasive fat removal treatment. Ultrasound waves are transmitted
with an ultrasound probe into the fat layer of the skin, stimulating lipolysis
of fat cells. This causes triglycerides to be released from fat cells. These
fats are then expelled from the body naturally. There is no pain, no recovery
time and no side effects. Advanced Tripolar RF technology delivers the optimal
RF energy to the dermal & subcutaneous layers. Its dense energy matrix
penetrates into multiple layers of the skin, ensuring improved clinical
efficacy and noticeably visible results. This fat loss technique is now used
worldwide and has shown notable results. One key reason why U-Lipo is successful
is that it demands minimal time from the busy schedule of patients. There have
been success stories of the results achieved in the shortest time span.
EMS (Electronic Muscle
Stimulation)
comprises full-body treatment with electrical stimulation and stimulates the
muscles. In EMS, impulses are generated by a device and delivered through
electrodes on the skin in direct proximity to the muscles to be stimulated,
which contracts the muscles just like an active exercise. The electrical
current passes through the skin to the nerves in the contact area, stimulating
the connecting muscles to contract.
Mesotherapy is a medical specialty that involves injecting microscopic quantities of natural extracts, homeopathic agents, pharmaceuticals and vitamins into the skin. It can be used to eliminate cellulite, promote weight loss, treat aging skin and redundant (sagging) skin, and rejuvenate the hands and neck. This treatment prevents cells from storing fat, and helps break down existing fat cells. A common side effect of Mesotherapy is bruising, which generally resolves over one week.
Sauna belt is an instrument like belt working electrically which claims to make
people slim by reducing body fat and unwanted flab’s in areas around the
abdomen, hips and waist. Sauna belt works on electricity it can also be
operated by battery. Once the switch is turned on, the material inside the belt
gets heated up by converting electricity into heat energy the same principle
that an electronic Iron works on. This heat is used to burn the fat tissues
around your abdomen, thighs or buttocks. More over patients cannot rely on this
belt as it works on electricity and chances of causing of heat sores on the
abdomen.
Non-surgical techniques are
the best suitable for fat loss, or for body figure correction. Non surgical
treatment, exercise and diet everything fails to effectively treat people with
extreme and excessive obesity. Patients that fall in the morbidly obese
category are suggested to opt for Baratic surgery. Bariatric surgery is an
operation that is performed in order to help such individuals lose weight. Achieving
a perfect figure is every person's aspiration. For many, however, it remains a
distant dream. Each passing year sees as many new weight management fads as
there are people vying to achieve that perfect body shape. Magic pills and
secret therapies and abound. However, choosing right treatment to shed those
extra fats from the body is necessary.
