Does Ultra Shape work only on targeted areas? Or is there any risk of it affecting surrounding tissues?

Does Ultra Shape work only on the targeted area (lower abs in my case), or can the effects spread to surrounding tissues? I'm really skinny and I wouldn't want to lose any fat from my buttocks or thighs.
