<p>Exemplary embodiments of apparatus and method for tissue cooling using a plurality of hollow needles to deliver a cooled fluid into the tissue can be provided. For example, a volume and/or temperature of the fluid can be controlled to cool the tissue to a particular temperature or to within a predetermined temperature range. A tissue surface overlying the tissue to be cooled can be pre-cooled using conventional cooling techniques to increase the efficacy of the exemplary procedure. The exemplary method and apparatus can be used, e.g., to disrupt or damage fatty tissue that may then be reabsorbed by the body.</p> |
