Official title: Efficacy of a Lipolytic Cream in the Body Composition of an Overweight and Obesity Treatment

Read the detailed description

The coadyouvant efficacy and safety of a combination of cosmetics ingredients in the form of a lipolytic cream with hypocaloric diet and physical activity were assessed and compared with with hypocaloric diet and physical activity for overweight and obesity treatment in patients of both gender and different age groups. DESIGN: In a monocenter, open-label, randomized, parallel-group study of 102 patients that consulted for overweight and obesity treatment were analyzed in perimeters and body composition for 12 consecutive weeks that were medically prescribed a weekly hypocaloric diet and physical activity for one group of 51 patients, and hypocaloric diet, physical activity and the lypolitic cream at least twice per day for the other group of 51 patients. Efficacy was evaluated by comparing intial and final of all values in both groups. Safety was monitored by the incidence of adverse events. Patients also assessed the acceptability of the cream presentation.
