Abstract

Background: Obesity is a condition of abnormal of excessive fat accumulation in adipose tissue. Abnormal blood lipids associated with obesity have been firmly established as risk factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases. Purpose: This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of low level laser therapy versus radiofrequency on lipid profile in obese males. Subjects: forty five patients aged from 35-45 years old assigned randomly into three equal groups: group (A) consisted of 15 patients with mean age and BMI were 39.93±3.47 years and 37.48 ± 1.34 kg/m2. group (B) consisted of 15 patients with mean age and BMI were 39.53±2.82 years and 37.98 ± 1.24 kg/m2. group (C) consisted of 15 patients with mean age and BMI were 39.26±2.96 years and 37.89 ± 1.42 kg/m2. Methods: group (A) received low level laser therapy (632.8nm-16J/cm2) in addition to aerobic exercises (walking on treadmill for 30 min) twice weekly for eight weeks and same medical drugs treatment. group (B) received radiofrequency in addition to aerobic exercises (walking on treadmill for 30 min) once weekly for eight weeks and same medical drugs treatment
