Abstract

Introduction: The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of a combination of 3 wavelengths (including red, infra-red, and blue) of low-level laser (LLL) as a non-invasive therapeutic method to reduce abdominal girth. To achieve biochemical activity on adipocytes, a red laser was used in our selective laser combination. Near-infrared laser was used to increase depth of penetration. Nitrosyl complexes of hemoglobin (NO-Hb) are sensitive to blue light, thereby leading to increase in release of biologically active nitric oxide (NO), which can affect tissue perfusion. Thus, a blue LED was added to the laser combination.Methods: Eighteen females participated in the study. Twelve sessions of laser therapy were performed, 2 sessions per week for each subject. Continuous wave DIODE LASERS, including red (630 nm), infra- red (808 nm), and a blue LED (450 nm) were applied and were all designed by the Canadian Optic and Laser Center.Results: Statistical analyses revealed that upper abdomen size significantly decreased from pre- (91.86±11.16) to post- (87.41±10.52) low-level laser therapy (LLLT) (P<0.001). Middle abdomen size showed significant reduction from pre- (97.02±8.82) to post- (91.97±8.49) LLLT (P<0.001). Lower abdomen size significantly decreased from pre- (100.36±9.45) to post- (95.80±8.52) LLLT (P<0.001).Conclusion: Based on this case series pilot investigation, the combination of 3 different wavelengths of LLL was effective for abdominal girth reduction in 100% of our subjects (P<0.001), without any side effects. Future studies will assess the long-term benefits of this laser combination for reduction of subcutaneous fat deposits.
