1. A method of treating body tissue using a non-invasive body contouring system, comprising:
providing a first frame comprising a first fastening member, the first frame defining a first aperture;
providing a first applicator;
generating treatment energy from a source disposed in a housing of the non-invasive body contouring system;
delivering the treatment energy to the first applicator via an umbilical extending from the housing to the first applicator; and
transmitting the treatment energy delivered to the first applicator through a first aperture,
wherein the first frame is configured such that a surface of the tissue treatment region extends into the first aperture when the first frame is coupled to a patient's body,
wherein the first applicator is coupled to the first frame, using the first fastening member, the first applicator comprising an optical window having a skin-contacting surface,
wherein a portion of the surface of the tissue treatment region extending into the first aperture contacts the optical window.
