A fat-reduction treatment produced by Israel-based medical device company has been awarded ‘Best Body Countouring Treatment’ by US magazine, New Beauty.

 The UltraShape ultrasound-based treatment aims to painlessly break down fat tissue in the abdominal area where fat tends to be resistant to diet and exercise.

The award comes shortly after UltraShape was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration in April last year.

UltraShape was selected as a winner by readers, editors and beauty industry experts for its ability to deliver results, “without surgery or hours spent in the gym.”

Dr. Shimon Eckhouse, Chairman of the Board of Directors for Syneron commented, “UltraShape represents the next generation in body-shaping with proven clinical outcomes and a superior safety profile, underscoring Syneron’s ongoing commitment to advancing treatment outcomes through technological innovation.”

Ultrashape’s patented technology has also been approved for use in Europe and China.
