Abstract
Background: To date, there has been no investigation addressing the effects of vibration anesthesia during carboxytherapy. Aim: Investigate the analgesic effect of different vibratory devices during carboxytherapy for the treatment of cellulite. Materials & methods: A total of78 women between 18 and 49years of age withcellulite in the gluteal region will be randomly allocated to three groups: Group A (carboxytherapy and vibratory device A), Group B (carboxytherapy and vibratory device B) and control group. Pain intensity will be assessed using a numerical rating scale after each puncture. Expected outcome: Vibration anesthesia is expected to be effective at diminishing the pain intensitycaused by carboxytherapy comparison withthe control group, with no differences between the vibratory devices. Trial registry: Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials: ReBEC (RBR-8jcqy7c).
