This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether ultrasound cavitation — a non-invasive procedure that uses sound waves to break down fat cells in the abdomen — can help reduce insulin resistance and improve body shape in women with belly obesity. Researchers will compare this treatment to a traditional approach of aerobic exercise combined with a low-calorie diet. The goal is to understand which approach works better for improving how the body uses insulin and reducing abdominal fat.
Many women struggle with belly fat and insulin resistance, which can increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease. While exercise and diet are standard treatments, researchers want to know if this treatment offers a better or faster way to improve these health markers.

If you join this study, you will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group will receive ultrasound cavitation treatments on the abdominal area, while the other group will participate in an aerobic exercise program combined with a low-calorie diet plan. Throughout the study, you will have visits to measure your insulin levels, body measurements, and body composition to see how well each treatment works.
