What is TruSculpt?
TruSculpt is a heat-based body contouring device that helps reduce fat in specific areas on the body. It can be used as a full-body treatment: thighs, arms, under the chin, abdominal area, flanks, etc. Clinical trials show an average of 20-25% fat reduction in the area of treatment, 12 weeks after 1 treatment. A second treatment can be performed for greater results.
TruSculpt has up to 6 handpieces that are placed on the desired treatment areas using an adhesive pad that is gently removed after treatment. Radiofrequency energy is delivered in cycles, heating up the skin underneath to the optimal temperature for fat reduction. The procedure is very well tolerated and feels like your skin slowly gets warmer like a hot bath. The procedure is not painful and does not injure or burn your skin. The energy has greater absorption in the fat layer than in the skin.
The treatment lasts 15 minutes and takes about 15 minutes to set up. We take thorough before and after photos and measurements so you can objectively see the benefits of the treatment.
What Is The Procedure Like?
What Does Recovery
Look Like?
Recovery is short with this procedure. Most people can return to their normal skin care routine starting the following morning and don’t notice any redness or left over signs of having a procedure performed. Some people may experience redness for up to a day following the procedure. Some people notice itching and dryness of the skin for 1-4 weeks after the procedure. Some individuals also experience a post-treatment acne flare that behaves as a normal acne breakout.
We recommend avoiding any activities that will cause excessive sweating for the first 24 hours after treatment. Avoid chemical or physical exfoliants for a few days after treatment, as your skin will be more sensitive. Avoid other facial procedures such as waxing or dermaplaning for 2 weeks after treatment.
Risk and Benefits
Benefits?
How long do results last?
This treatment allows you to treat your problem areas at their source to achieve your ideal image. Even if you have a solid diet and workout plan, it is difficult to target a specific area for fat reduction with lifestyle changes alone. With TruSculpt the fat cells in a specific area are eliminated permanently.
Risks?
What to do before the procedure?
RISK:
This treatment is contraindicated if you have a cardiac pacemaker or internal defibrillator. Other implanted devices will need to be evaluated by your provider. This treatment cannot be performed over an open wound. There is an increased risk of developing a burn if handpieces are placed over surgical scars. This can be mitigated by good handpiece placement. TruSculpt delivers great results! It is common sense that you can still gain weight with poor diet and inactivity. This treatment works best with healthy lifestyle choices.
What to do before the procedure?
We recommend coming to the office in loose, comfortable fitting clothes. The treatment area should be clean shaven and cleansed recently of any lotions or makeups. Inform your provider if you have been using a spray tanner within the 2 weeks prior to your procedure.
