What is truSculpt iD Body Sculpting?
truSculpt iD is a non-surgical treatment that selectively targets fat cells and naturally removes them from the body. The technology uses monopolar radiofrequency (RF) to break down subcutaneous fat for precise body contouring.
Body sculpting (also called body contouring) is shaping the body by removing stubborn fat bulges from areas such as stomach, love handles, back, inner thighs and arms. Surgical and non-surgical techniques are available to sculpt the body to achieve slimmer contours.
The decision which option to choose depends on several factors, including: how much correction is desired; whether sagging skin is present; and ultimately how much downtime and discomfort you’re willing to endure.
During treatment, we glide the truSculpt iD handpiece along the skin’s surface, deploying radiofrequency energy down through the entire fat level (while keeping the skin at a comfortable temperature).
What kind of results can you expect? One 15-minute truSculpt iD session can achieve an impressive 24% reduction of fat and multiple areas can be treated in one visit.
Why is truSculpt iD different compared to other body sculpting procedures?
Non-surgical fat reduction can be achieved using several methods: freezing fat cells, injecting deoxicholic acid or with heat (such as laser and RF).
truSculpt iD offers several advantages. It uses monopolar radiofrequency to achieve lipolysis (fat cell death). Science shows that monopolar penetrates deeper (up to 20mm) and destroys fat cells better than bipolar or multipolar energy.
Another big plus with truSculpt iD is the treatment experience. It’s very comfortable for the patient (similar to getting a hot stone massage). Additionally there’s no downtime or side-effects such as pain, swelling, bruising and nerve-damage that typically accompany other procedures.
