How does truSculpt work?

truSculpt uses a non-invasive Radio Frequency technology to deliver deep heating up to 45C to the layer of adipose tissue (fat) below the skin. This high heat effectively induces fat cell apoptosis (cell death). The result is body sculpting, fat reduction and skin tightening.

Can truSculpt replace liposuction?

truSculpt is not liposuction, and will not achieve the same results. With this non-invasive procedure, however, there are no risks of surgical complications.

How does truSculpt differ from Coolsculpt and Kybella?

There are no needles, no pushing or pulling of tissue into a vacuum device like there is with Coolsculpt, which uses freezing to crystallize the fat (cryolipolysis), and no pain or numbness that is often associated with that treatment. truSculpt can be easily used on different body areas, whereas Kybella is currently approved only for the submentum (under chin area).

Who is a good candidate for truSculpt?

truSculpt is the ideal treatment for both women and men that live a healthy lifestyle but are struggling with problem areas that neither a no-carb, no-sugar diet nor any amount of crunches or 5K runs can resolve. Basically anyone who sees a stubborn area such as minor love handles, or a little back fat, or the ‘pooch’ above the front waistline, or even areas of the outer and inner thighs that could benefit from a little contouring. Even small areas like a little double chin or extra fat around the tricep upper arm region can be treated to create a more appealing, slimmer look.

Patients who cannot be treated with truSculpt include: those who are pregnant, have cardiac pacemakers, internal defibrillators, tumors in the target area, or metallic implants in the target area of any kind including joint replacements.
