Overview
Flank-to-flank no-touch fat reduction, de-emphasized after NEO
How it worksTechnology and manufacturing
How the technology works
Selective RF at 27.12MHz from a contactless panel array positioned about an inch above the skin, tuned so the impedance mismatch between fat and other tissues concentrates heating in the subcutaneous layer (fat reaches ~44-45C while skin and muscle stay cooler).
Sustained heating over a 45-minute session drives adipocyte apoptosis, cleared over weeks. The field spans flank-to-flank — one of the few devices treating the whole abdomen circumferentially in one session.
Typically 4-6 weekly sessions; hydration before/after materially affects results.
Patented technology
BTL's Selective RF / Energy Flow Control — the contactless multi-panel applicator continuously tuning output to tissue impedance so energy self-selects fat; ME = Maximum Energy, the higher-output second generation.
Origin
BTL Industries, Czech Republic.
