Ultrasound vs cold fat removal for men with belly fat
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study compares two non-surgical fat reduction methods—ultrasound and cold treatment (cryolipolysis)—in men with central obesity. It looks at how these treatments affect cholesterol and fat levels in the blood.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests if ultrasound cavitation—a non-invasive treatment that uses sound waves to break down fat—can help lower insulin resistance in women with central obesity (fat around the belly). It's a possible option if you have insulin resistance and are not taking diabetes medication.
This study tests whether a sound-wave device (shockwave therapy) applied to your belly can help shrink fat and improve body measurements. It is for adults who have stubborn belly fat and are otherwise healthy.
This study tests if ultrasound cavitation or whole body vibration is better at reducing belly fat in obese teenage girls. It may help you find a non-surgical option to lose abdominal fat.
This study tests whether CBL-514, an injectable medication, can safely reduce unwanted fat deposits under the skin in the abdomen. If it works, it could offer people a non-surgical option to improve the appearance of belly fat they're unhappy with.
This trial tests an injection called CBL-514 to reduce stubborn belly fat in people who are at a healthy weight but have moderate to severe abdominal fat. It may be an option if you've kept a stable lifestyle and are looking for a non-surgical approach.
This study tests whether CBL-514, an injection given under the skin, can safely reduce stubborn belly fat in people with normal to slightly elevated weight. Researchers will measure changes in abdominal fat using imaging and patient assessments.
