truBody

The truSculpt hands-free applicators emit controlled and safe RF energy that penetrates the skin and heats the underlying fat cells. The treated fat cells go through apoptosis, where they are gradually broken down and cleared away by the body’s lymphatic system. Over 8-12 weeks patients see an average of 24% fat reduction in the area treated.

In just one 15-minute session, truFlex delivers the equivalent of 54,000 crunches to strengthen and tone multiple muscle groups. It employs Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS). This unique muscle stimulation technology features adjustable intensities to achieve the personalized look you desire. The treatment yields up to a 30% increase in muscle mass.

During a 15-minute truBody truFlex session, you will experience contraction sensations as the intensity and muscle contraction increase to your desired intensity. It is generally well-tolerated and does not cause discomfort.

During the 15-minute truSculpt treatment you will feel heat that gradually increases according to your comfort level. Some patients compare it to a hot stone massage. The treatment area and intensity is customizable and may vary depending on your target body shape and goals.
