a: Model geometry: The cannula is inserted inside the hypodermis layer at approximately 0.8 cm below the surface. This cannula is moved back and forth onto 100 mm in the fat layer with a velocity of 100 mm/in a plane parallel to the surface. This back and forth motion is repeated 15 times for each position of the cannula. This step is repeated 9 times (10 degrees angle each time). 2b: in order to provide a homogeneous treatment of the fat layer, the cannula is inserted at a distance of 120 mm from the previous insertion point and the procedure is repeated.
