LOCALIZED COOLING TO INDUCE BROWNING OF ADIPOSE TISSUE

摘要

Described are methods for inducing browning of adipose tissue. More specifically, the present disclosure relates generally to methods for inducing browning of adipose tissue remote to the treatment location. The methods can include at least a first treatment and a second treatment, wherein the treatments comprise applying a cooling element to a local adipose tissue deposit, wherein the cooling element cools the local adipose tissue deposit to a temperature of between 0° C. to 30° C. for a period of time sufficient to induce browning of adipose tissue in one or more areas of the subject's body remote to the local adipose tissue deposit.
