The Specifics
What is truSculpt®?
truSculpt® is a non-surgical body sculpting and contouring procedure using radiofrequency energy to breakdown fat cells in stubborn areas and also enhance musculature. truSculpt® ID treatments are designed for pockets of fat and truSculpt® Flex for muscle growth. These noninvasive body sculpting treatments can be specified to a candidate's individual needs.
A truSculpt® procedure has been compared to a hot stone massage with short treatment times ranging from 15 to 45 minutes. truSculpt 3D technology and monopolar RF energy can target highly specific treatment areas to destroy adipose tissue (fat layer), possibly promote skin tightening and lessen skin laxity, and reduce the appearance of cellulite.
