    摘要: Disclosed is a method for treating dermis and hypodermis by placing at least a first electrode at the surface of a to-be-treated skin region and contacting a second electrode at another position on the body to be treated then applying between the electrodes a current with pulse component, said current being sufficient to produce electro-osmotic pressure/velocity wavefronts corresponding to the fundamental frequency in blood vessels in the dermis and hypodermis of the skin region.

    摘要: A method is provided for characterizing a lipofilling agent causing increased lipofilling activity in adipose tissue from a target body area. Such a method can include obtaining a plurality of distinct preadipocyte cultures taken from a plurality of distinct body areas of an individual, exposing the plurality of distinct preadipocyte cultures to a plurality of potential lipofilling agents, culturing the plurality of distinct preadipocyte cultures through differentiation to form a plurality of distinct adipocyte cultures, measuring a degree of lipofilling activity of adipocytes from each of the plurality of distinct adipocyte cultures, and quantifying the measured lipofilling activity across the plurality of distinct adipocyte cultures to identify a lipofilling agent causing increased lipofilling activity in adipose tissue from the target body area as compared to adipose tissue in the non-target body area.
