Are you excited about the numbers on the scale, but frustrated about  stubborn pockets of fat that refuse to go away no matter how hard you try? If you’ve had luck with weight loss but are still struggling with fat deposits on your stomach, hips, or thighs despite dieting and exercising, non-invasive body contouring treatments just might be the answer.

While there was once a time when the only options to eliminate rolls of fat were more invasive procedures such as tummy tucks and liposuction, today’s newer treatments can be performed in an office setting with no drugs or serious downtime. But with several new options available, it’s important to understand the difference between them. The two most popular non-surgical fat reduction treatments are TruSculpt® iD and CoolSculpting.

Non invasive procedure for fat reduction

What is the Difference Between TruSculpt® iD and CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting and TruSculpt® iD share a lot of the same features. Both are non-invasive procedures, which means they don’t require needles, knives, hospital stays, or anaesthesia.  With both procedures,  the results are permanent; meaning, once the fat cells are eliminated from the body, they are gone forever.

One of the best things about these new non-surgical procedures is that they allow you to target fatty areas without visible downtime. That means you can get back to the office, your family, and the gym right away. 

But even though the ultimate results are similar, each treatment takes a very different approach to the process. CoolSculpting, as the name implies, uses extreme cold to destroy fat cells. TruSculpt® iD, on the other hand, relies on heat to eliminate excess fat cells. 

CoolSculpting procedure completely non invasive

Freezing Fat With CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting is a branded form of cryolipolysis, a non-surgical procedure that helps eliminate excess fat cells underneath the skin. CoolSculpting, developed by Harvard University researchers, destroys fat cells by freezing them. After the cells are frozen, the body eliminates the fat cells naturally.

The results of CoolSculpting are long term, and though results begin to become visible as soon as three weeks after treatment, the most dramatic changes occur after two months. In some cases,  the transformation can take as long as six months.

How CoolSculpting Works

Using a vacuum applicator, CoolSculpting works by freezing the fat in the target area.  While the procedure is being performed, patients report feeling some discomfort, similar to a tingling sensation. There can also be some minor side effects, such as redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness, achiness, and skin sensitivity. These side effects are normal, and not all patients experience them. In rare cases,  patients can have felt a deeper discomfort.  Most side effects subside after the procedure.

The CoolSculpting procedure typically takes 35 to 60 minutes, depending on the number and size of the area(s) being treated. More than one device can be used simultaneously on different areas, a process called dual sculpting.

Who is a Good Candidate for CoolSculpting?

Men and women who are healthy and near their target weigh are good candidates for CoolSculpting.  However, the treatment is not recommended for people who are obese, extremely overweight, or pregnant; or have had recent surgeries, diseases of the lymphatic system, or a history of eating disorders.

Treatment Time: 35 minutes to an hour.

Treatments needed: 2 to 4 treatments per area

Down time: No downtime; patients may return to their normal daily activities immediately following their treatment.

Side effects: Potential side effects include mild tingling, tenderness, numbing, bruising, redness.

When Will I See  Results?:  It takes approximately 3 weeks after treatment for results to be seen. For most patients, changes can be seen as soon as 3 days after treatment. 8-12 weeks after the treatment, more dramatic changes appear.

Number of Fat Freezing Sessions Required to Achieve Optimal Results: The number of sessions varies according to the patient’s goals, how much weight they have to lose, and the number of targeted areas, however the average person needs between 1-2 sessions a week.

Disadvantages of CoolSculpting

Though CoolSculpting destroys fat cells, new fat cells can still develop in other areas if the patient gains weight again. It is important to maintain a healthy diet and exercise to maintain results.

Melting Unwanted Fat with TruSculpt iD® Fat Reduction Treatment

TruSculpt iD® is a safe and effective technology that is clinically proven to permanently destroy fat cells in stubborn areas that cause pockets of fat on the stomach, fatty inner and outer thighs, and flabby upper arms as well as a double chin. 

How TruSculpt iD® Works

TruSculpt iD® delivers radio-frequency energy by heating the fat layer below the skin. As the treatment progresses and a higher temperature is sustained, it creates a warming sensation, similar to a hot stone massage. Not only does this sensation indicate that fat cells are melting but that extra collagen is being produced which helps tone and tighten the skin.

TruSculpt iD®  treatment does not require any downtime and can be effective on all skin types, on multiple areas, and usually takes less than one hour.

Results of TruSculpt iD®  treatment will start to be visible between 2 weeks and  3 months as the body processes and eliminates the dead  fat cells.

The number of treatments varies depending on the size and number of targeted areas since each patient’s body type is different, has different goals, and has their own individual challenges.

A TGA-approved body contouring procedure, TruSculpt iD® is beneficial for both men and women who are healthy and near their target weight, but still have problem areas that won’t go away despite all their dieting and activity efforts. TruSculpt iD® is not recommended, however,  for obese and extremely overweight patients;  pregnant women; or people with pacemakers, internal defibrillators, or metallic implants.

  • Redness
  • Sweating
  • Mild tenderness in the treated areas

Is TruSculpt® iD Fat Reduction Treatment Painful?

Using a Monopolar Radio Frequency device, pulses of energy heat and shrink fat cells. Adjustable to conform to each patient’s needs, the level of heat can be altered so each client feels comfortable and experiences little to no pain.

How Long Does It Take To See Noticeable Results of TruSculpt® iD?

Advantages of TruSculpt® iD:

  • Treatment session in as little as 15 minutes 
  • No anaesthetic needed
  • Non-invasive and non-surgical 
  • Handheld device allows treatment in hard-to-reach areas

Benefits of TruSculpt® iD over CoolSculpting

While TruSculpt® iD and CoolSculpting are both non invasive fat reduction treatments that work by using extreme temperatures to destroy unwanted stubborn fat, there are a few advantages of TruSculpt® iD over CoolSculpting.

  1. Treats Hard-to-Reach Areas: While CoolSculpting is limited to certain areas of the body due to the size of the device, truSculpt® iD treats fat anywhere on the body, even the smallest areas.
  2. Tightens Skin: One of the greatest differences between CoolSculpting and TruSculpt® iD  is that TruSculpt® iD improves texture and tightens the skin, targeting cellulite and loose skin that results after dramatic weight floss.
  3. Less Discomfort: Fat freezing can be very uncomfortable to certain patients, whereas TruSculpt® iD  uses heat that can be easily adjusted.

Safety and Efficacy of Current Treatment Paradigms

TruSculpt® iD

The main advantages of TruSculpt iD®  are that it requires no anaesthetic, involves no downtime, and most importantly, uses no knives or needles.

The only TGA-approved treatment that offers a non-invasive treatment option for body contouring and fat reduction, TruSculpt® iD reduces fat by up to 24% in as little as one treatment, forever eliminating fat cells from hard-to-reach areas.

Radio frequency energy emits heat through the skin targeting only the fat cells without damaging the skin in any way, making the procedure completely safe. Once destroyed, the body naturally flushes out the dead fat cells through the lymphatic system.

CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting has many benefits over more invasive fat reduction procedures, like liposuction. It’s non-surgical, non-invasive, and requires no recovery time. But while there are benefits to CoolSculpting, it’s important to be aware of certain risks before considering this procedure. Minor side effects, including irritation and pain have been reported and some people have also experienced a less common side effect causing fat cells to actually grow bigger in response to the treatment instead of smaller.

But if you’re a woman of child-bearing years, you may have wondered  whether TruSculpt iD®  treatment will affect your chances of getting pregnant.  Here are some facts that should put your mind at ease.

TruSculpt iD® Pre-Pregnancy

If you’ve recently had a TruSculpt iD® treatment session done on any part of your body, because the procedure only kills targeted fat cells, there’s no recovery period necessary. This means you don’t have to wait to get pregnant after having TruSculpt iD® treatment.  

Another misconception about TruSculpt iD® is that it  affects your fertility. But the truth is, TruSculpt iD® non-surgical fat reduction technique doesn’t affect anything beyond the layer of treated skin and fat. In fact, the heat and radio frequency from TruSculpt iD® do not reach the reproductive organs like your ovaries that are deep beyond the area of treatment. But just because TruSculpt iD® doesn’t affect fertility doesn’t mean you should get a treatment session while you’re actively trying to get pregnant.  

While it’s safe to start trying to get pregnant after TruSculpt iD® treatment, even though TruSculpt iD® kills the unwanted fat cells in the targeted area, it won’t stop new fatty tissue from developing in the area after significant weight gain. During pregnancy, it’s normal to gain weight. For this reason,  women that have experienced significant weight gain in prior pregnancies, should wait until after your pregnancy to undergo treatment.   

Body sculpting treatments without invasive surgery

TruSculpt iD® During Pregnancy

While TruSculpt iD® is safe, there’s no research done on the effects  TruSculpt iD® can have on pregnant women and their growing fetuses. To avoid any risk to you or your child, we highly suggest waiting until after delivery to get TruSculpt iD® treatment.  

If you’ve had TruSculpt iD® done prior to conceiving, the results can vary. Women who are able to maintain their weight can notice the effects of their TruSculpt iD® sessions shedding away fat cells. However, it’s possible for some women not to see a difference or grow new fat cells in their treated area. If you’re actively trying to get pregnant, getting non-surgical fat reduction treatment in an effort to destroy unwanted fat before putting on baby weight is not recommended. This is a time to think about the health of yourself and your baby. There will be plenty of time to shed the extra weight after delivery. And who knows, maybe you’ll get lucky and lose the weight naturally!

TruSculpt iD® Postpartum

Though weight loss does normally begin as soon as a woman gives birth, weight-loss timetables vary depending on a variety of factors such as how much weight was gained during pregnancy, whether or not the mum is  breastfeeding, age, diet and exercise habits, and activity level. New mums generally drop approximately 5.5 kilos (12 pounds) as the uterus shrinks back down, but some stubborn fat persists long after giving birth. 

If you’re a new mum and you’re worried that your body isn’t bouncing right back, don’t worry!  You’re human—not a rubber band, and your body isn’t going to just snap back into place postpartum as if nothing happened. It takes time.  And for nursing mums, the time it takes to get back to pre-pregnancy physique may be even longer as the body is still producing nutrients.

There’s good news, however. While many of the fat-reduction and other cosmetic treatments that were off limits during pregnancy are safe and available during the postpartum period. 

Because your bdy changes a lot during pregnancy, it’s best to give yourself time to recuperate during the postpartum stage before seeking any cosmetic procedure. 

For more information on postpartum fat reduction, see our blog post, Mum Makeover: Non-Surgical Fat Reduction for Postpartum Body Transformation.

Who is a Candidate for TruSculpt iD®?

The best candidates for non invasive TruSculpt iD®.

  • BMI (body mass index)  lower than 30
  • 20 to 30 pounds away from goal weight
  • Difficulty losing weight and shedding fat in stubborn areas that can’t be managed with  diet and exercise
  • Overall  good health
  • Understanding that results of TruSculpt iD® can take months

TruSculpt Procedure

By delivering radiofrequency energy to the treatment areas, excess fat cells absorb the energy in the form of heat, effectively destroying stubborn fat without harming the skin at all. Once destroyed, the body naturally takes over and flushes out the old fat cells through the lymphatic system.

The treatment, which takes from 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated, feels like a warm sensation on the skin, similar to a hot stone massage. Most people undergoing the treatment have not reported any pain or discomfort during  the procedure and no prescription pain medications, cooling gels, or compression garments are required. Mild redness, swelling, and tenderness in the treated area can last for approximately 10-12 hours, for which patients are advised to take mild OTC analgesics such as Tylenol. 

For most people, TruSculpt iD treatment requires two sessions, spaced ut 4 to 6 weeks apart.  In most cases, client achieve maximum results after approximately 10-12 weeks, however some patients begin to see improvement after as little as 4 weeks.

Is TruSculpt iD® Safe for Women?

Safe for both women and men, TruSculpt iD® is a clinically proven TGA-approved contouring treatment with less risk and recovery time than invasive cosmetic surgery. There are limitations, however,  for women who are pregnant or trying to conceive. While the effects of TruSculpt iD® are unlikely to affect your internal organs, there are no studies or research done on the effects TruSculpt iD® can have on developing fetus. To be on the safe side, it’s best to pause your plans for TruSculpt iD® while you’re trying to get pregnant.

When Will I See Results After TruSculpt Treatment?

Most people can expect to see full results 6-12 weeks after their last treatment. That’s the amount of time  the body needs time to clear away the destroyed fat.

Affectionately known as cottage cheese thighs or orange peel hips, cellulite is a collection of fat that pushes against the connective tissue beneath the skin leaving an uneven surface that looks lumpy, puckered, or dimpled. Cellulite can appear almost anywhere on the body, but the stomach, hips, legs, upper arms, and butt are the most common areas.  
Remove cellulite, a collection of fat that pushes against the connective bands beneath the skin

Though cellulite is often associated with obesity, individuals of all sizes can be inflicted with cellulite. Because cellulite has just as much to do with the skin as it does the underlying fat tissue, simply losing weight will not necessarily eliminate cellulite.

In more scientific terms,  cellulite,  (AKA gynoid lipodystrophy or GLD),  is the herniation of subcutaneous fat within fibrous connective tissue that manifests as skin dimpling.

Reduce the appearance of cellulite

History of Cellulite

The term “cellulite” was first used in the 1920s by spas and beauty service providers, and began appearing in English-language publications in the late 1960s, with the earliest reference made in Vogue magazine:  “Like a swift migrating fish, the word cellulite has suddenly crossed the Atlantic.”  

TruSculpt increases collagen production while reducing appearance of cellulite

What Causes Cellulite?

People can develop cellulite on the hips, buttocks, and thighs, though it can appear on other areas as well. Cellulite appears like orange peel dimples, generally with weight gain, when skin loses elasticity, and there is excess fat and a lack of stretching of the fibrous connective tissue bands that attach the skin to underlying muscles. When subcutaneous tissue is pressed up against lax skin, some of the fat cells beneath make it through the skin’s connective tissue. As the fat pushes against the loose skin, cellulite occurs.

The appearance of cellulite can happen even to healthy women. It can be the result of one or a combination of factors, including diet and lifestyle, hormonal imbalances, genetic factors, and predisposition. To get rid of cellulite, it is possible to reduce the lumpy skin by changing some behaviors, but it usually depends on how much cellulite is present and the patient’s body fat percentage. While it may be possible to reduce the appearance of dimpled skin with treatments like laser treatments, cellulite cream, acoustic wave therapy, and deep massage, with more serious cases, other cellulite treatments may be necessary to reduce visible cellulite.

Diet and Lifestyle

Bad eating habits, a high-stress lifestyle, and inactivity are all contributing factors to the formation of cellulite. After you get rid of cellulite with any cellulite treatments, it’s important to begin eating a balanced diet, getting down to a healthy weight, and practicing a healthy lifestyle so more cellulite doesn’t develop.

Hormonal Factors

An imbalance of estrogen relative to progesterone may be associated with the development of cellulite. Other hormones including insulin, cortisol, noradrenaline, thyroid hormones, and prolactin are believed to participate in the development of cellulite.

Genetics

There is a genetic component of cellulite as well.  Studies have shown that both the presence and degree of cellulite is similar between females within the same family.

Predisposition

Most women of East Asian descent are less predisposed than caucasian women of European descent or black women.

Other Contributing Factors 

Though body fat is certainly a major factor in the appearance of cellulite, there are a number of other possible contributing factors such as quick weight loss, lack of regular exercise, dehydration, metabolism speed, skin thickness, and skin colour.

How to Treat Cellulite

Because cellulite is a multifactorial condition, it can be resistant to some cellulite treatments. Aside from topical skincare products and injectables, cellulite treatments include non-invasive fat-reduction. Specialist Skin Solutions offers an innovative treatment, known as truSculpt® iD, designed to melt fat and reduce cellulite. 

Specialist Skin Solutions Lorn

What is truSculpt® iD?

When many patients think about contouring the body, they often think of invasive procedures like liposuction. TruSculpt® iD is a non-invasive treatment that uses radio frequency (RF) energy to heat deep layers of the skin. This heat not only eliminates fat cells in the targeted area, but it stimulates the skin, making it tighter and smoother. While highly effective for eradicating unwanted pockets of fat, truSculpt® iD can also improve skin tone and destroy dreaded cellulite. 

How Does truSculpt® iD Work?

TruSculpt® iD uses Monopolar Radio Frequency technology to target fat cells selectively. By delivering radio frequency energy through the skin, fat cells absorb the energy in the form of heat, effectively destroying the unsightly body fat without harming the skin at all. Once destroyed, the body naturally takes over and flushes out the old fat cells through the lymphatic system.

Heat also encourages the natural production of collagen and elastin,  two primary nutrients responsible for skin health,. This action leads to stronger and tighter skin and allows the skin to contain the underlying fatty tissues that cause cellulite.

TruSculpt ® iD Procedure

The procedure, which takes from 15 to 60 minutes,  feels similar to a hot stone massage. Patients have not reported any pain or discomfort during  the procedure and no prescription pain medications, cooling gels, or compression garments are required. Mild redness, swelling, and tenderness can last for approximately 10-12 hours, for which patients are advised to take mild OTC pain medication such as Tylenol. 

TruSculpt iD® treatment normally requires 1 to 2 sessions, 4-6 weeks apart.

The truSculpt® iD  system is safe, comfortable, and non-invasive, allowing patients to resume  normal activities immediately.  

Side Effects of truSculpt® iD

One of the benefits of truSculpt® iD is that there are few, if any, side effects related to the procedure. Some minor side effects include:

  • Redness
  • Sweating
  • Mild tenderness in the treated areas

One of the main advantages of truSculpt® iD  is that it is a simple and comfortable procedure, requiring no anaesthetic, no downtime, and maybe most importantly, no knives or needles!

TruSculpt® iD is a non-invasive,  clinically proven, highly effective, and completely safe treatment that permanently destroys fat cells from even hard-to-reach areas. TruSculpt® iD is the only TGA-approved device of its kind that offers a non-invasive treatment option for body sculpting and fat reduction.  It has been clinically proven to permanently reduce fat by up to 24% in as little as one treatment.

*Note: Several treatments may be required to see a noticeable reduction of cellulite or make cellulite disappear.

How Long Does It Take To See Results?

Maximum results are visible after approximately 10-12 weeks, however some patients begin to see improvement after as little as 4 weeks.  Unlike invasive procedures like liposuction that remove fat, TruSculpt iD®  causes fat cell death.  This disruption of cells allows the fat to leak through lymphatic system, shrink, and gradually expel. The truSculpt® iD procedure takes just a few minutes, and patients can expect to see full results 6-12 weeks after their last treatment— the amount of time the body needs to clear away the destroyed fat.

With truSculpt® iD, patients can get the slimmer shape they desire, even in areas that have been resistant to diet and exercise, like the abs and the hips.

A body sculpting staple for decades, liposuction has met its match with noninvasive fat reduction treatments that are challenging this OG surgical option. TruSculpt Non-Invasive Fat Reduction is one of the most popular non-surgical treatments on the market today, but with so many options, it’s tough for people to decide which is right for them. If you ever wondered whether to undergo trusculpt or liposuction surgery, read on.

What is Liposuction? 

There are no two ways about it; liposuction is a surgical procedure involving anaesthesia, incisions, pain, and post-procedure recovery, which can last up to three months. Also known as suction-assisted lipectomy, the procedure involves removing small to moderate localised deposits of fat on targeted areas such as the abdomen, flanks, inner and outer thighs, and upper arms.

The liposuction procedure involves inserting an instrument called a cannula, a hollow tube that is inserted into the fatty areas by way of small incisions, and moving it around to loosen the excess fat. Similar to a vacuum cleaner, the fat is then suctioned out using a cannula connected to a vacuum or hand held syringe. Because of the movement inside the fat, the procedure causes significant trauma to the targeted area.

Because of the recovery time, pain, and cost, together with fears associated with surgery, the procedure has fallen out of favour now that less painful, non-invasive treatments. 

Removing fat with traditional liposuction

Liposuction Recovery and Associated Post-Surgical Pain 

Just the thought of undergoing a surgical procedure to reduce body fat might be daunting for people thinking about liposuction surgery. The fear of bruising, discomfort, and downtime surrounding the procedure has also scared more than a few patients away.

One of the most significant roadblocks to liposuction for many people considering liposuction surgical fat reduction is the significant pain and discomfort most patients experience after the procedure.  Depending on the areas treated, patients can experience significant  pain when sitting, standing, walking, or getting out of bed for seven to ten days.

It takes most liposuction patients about three months to feel completely normal again, with the worst discomfort resolving after the first month.

In addition to the pain, patients must wear a compression garment for several months after surgery. This can be uncomfortable and awkward. Additionally, many surgeons forbid cardio exercises like cycling, swimming, running, and even fast walking for the first month.

Invasive surgery for removing excess fat cells

Steps of Liposuction Surgery

  1. Liposuction typically begins with the administration of anaesthesia. 
  2. Next a small incision is made near the areas being treated. This could be one or multiple points of entry.
  3. A small cannula (hollow tube) is inserted into the incisions and moved around to dislodge fat in the surrounding area. The fat is suctioned out with a vacuum attached to the cannula or a handheld syringe.
  4. The incisions are then closed, usually with dissolvable stitches, and recovery begins.

Liposuction Recovery Process

After the liposuction surgery is complete, patients are dressed in compression garments to reduce swelling. Some bruising, redness, tenderness, soreness, itchiness, and discomfort can be expected. Depending on the individual’s pain tolerance, there are some patients that do well with over-the-counter pain medications like Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen after liposuction, while many require prescription pain medications.

Though the compression garments help to keep swelling to a minimum, it can take several months for the swelling to subside completely. The swelling will reduce significantly with each passing week. 

Post-Liposuction Care Kit

Before surgery, make sure you have the following items easily accessible:

  • Comfortable, loose clothing
  • Towels to sit on to absorb any leaking fluids
  • Pillows 
  • Bottles of water
  • Soda crackers and/or ginger tea  for nausea
  • Pain medication

What to Expect from Days One through 90 Following Liposuction Surgery

First Day After Liposuction Surgery

  • Expect to feel sore for the first 24 hours. Pain medication may be utilized at this time to ease discomfort. 
  • It is normal for bloody fluid to drain on clothes and sheets for the first 24 hours. Don’t worry! The fluid is put into the area before liposuction to make fat removal safer. 
  • Following the surgeon’s post-care instructions is imperative. Rest as much as possible during the first day.  Compression garments can be a little uncomfortable at this time and take some getting used to. 
  • Avoid unnecessary movement. Ask family and friends to assist you at this time.
  • Mild bruising, swelling, and some bloody fluid coming out of the incision is normal after surgery. These symptoms should gradually subside within 2–6 weeks.  

The First 72 Hours After Liposuction Surgery

  • It is common for bloody fluid to drain on clothes and sheets for the first 72 hours after surgery. Don’t worry! The fluid is put into the area before liposuction to make fat removal safer. 
  • Your compression garment should be worn at all times except during showering. Compression garments reduce swelling and speed up your recovery. Your plastic surgeon will let you know when you can stop wearing the garment.
  • It is usually advised that you move every two hours to prevent blood clots. This also helps keep fluids moving and reduce swelling.
  • Continue avoiding exercising during the first 72 hours.

The First Month After Liposuction Surgery

  • Though mild discomfort is normal for the first month, the first week is usually the most challenging period for patients and will subside as the month moves along. 
  • Some residual swelling is still expected after the first month, but at this point, you will start seeing some of the initial results.
  • If you work outside the home, you might be able to return to work and start light exercise after the first month.
  • Remember to follow your provider’s instructions to the letter. 

90 Days After Liposuction Surgery

  • ​​Three months after liposuction is normally when patients notice the treated areas beginning to appear tighter and smoother. 
  • Scars from the incisions will have faded at this point and should be barely noticeable and easy to hide.
  • By day 90, you should feel like you’re finally getting back to normal and results will be more apparent.

Can I Shower After Liposuction Surgery?

Even though liposuction surgery doesn’t  involve large incisions, it is important to know how to care for your body after the procedure. This includes bathing. Though some  surgeons will allow you to shower 24 hours after surgery, many may want you to keep your initial compression garments on for 2–3 days, which means you won’t be able to shower until after that period. When you do finally shower, run soapy water over the areas. Do not scrub or use a washcloth, loofa, or other bathing tool. Gently pat the area dry with a clean towel. Avoid  non-running water such as baths, hot tubs, swimming pools, lakes, rivers, and oceans for the first 2 weeks.

* Follow your provider’s directions to the letter to stay safe and to ensure you’ll have the best results.

Realistic expectations following invasive procedure for fat removal

Will Fat Cells Return After Liposuction Surgery?

Because the body will not produce new fat cells as long as the patient maintains a stable body weight after the procedure, most patients do not experience a re-growth in fat cells in the treated area after liposuction. In general, the adult human body cannot generate new fat cells. The fat loss in the liposuction treated sites is permanent, and the fat cells removed from a specific area will not return. 

When Will I Notice Results After Liposuction Surgery? 

As with any surgery, it takes time for maximum visual results to appear after liposuction. The rate varies from patient to patient, influenced by factors like genetics, skin quality, diet, and water consumption. Having another procedure at the same time, such as a tummy tuck, can also affect the amount of time it takes to see results. Most patients begin to see visible results eight to twelve weeks after surgery with continued improvements for the next six months.

Nonsurgical fat reduction treatments

The TruSculpt Alternative

TruSculpt iD is a non-surgical, non-invasive fat reduction treatment that uses monopolar radiofrequency energy to eliminate fat cells throughout the entire fat layer, from just below the skin down to the muscle. It’s commonly used to contour the abdomen, flanks, inner and outer thighs, the chin, and the upper arms when other weight loss method efforts have failed. An alternative to liposuction, truSculpt does not involve the use of scalpels or stitches, and can be done in an office setting without anaesthesia, pain, or downtime.

What is truSculpt® iD? 

TruSculpt iD uses Monopolar Radio Frequency technology to target fat cells selectively. Using a handpiece that emits the radio frequency energy, the device is placed over the targeted area, while pulses of energy cause fat cells to heat up and shrink, promoting skin contraction for a slimming and smoothing effect. Easily adjusted to conform to each patient’s needs, the level of heat can be adapted, so each person feels comfortable and experiences very little to no pain.

TruSculpt iD  is a clinically proven, highly effective, and completely safe treatment that permanently eliminates fat cells from even the hardest-to-reach areas. truSculpt® iD is the only TGA-approved device of its kind that offers a non-invasive treatment option for body sculpting and fat reduction.  It has been clinically proven to permanently reduce fat by up to 24% in as little as one treatment.

Nonsurgical body contouring

TruSculpt Procedure

By delivering radio frequency energy through the skin, fat cells absorb the energy in the form of heat, effectively destroying the unsightly fat without harming the skin at all. Once destroyed, the body naturally takes over and flushes out the old fat cells through the lymphatic system.

The procedure, which takes from 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated, feels like a warm sensation on the skin, similar to a hot stone massage. Patients have not reported any pain or discomfort during  the procedure and no prescription pain medications, cooling gels, or compression garments are required. Mild redness, swelling, and tenderness can last for approximately 10-12 hours, for which patients are advised to take mild OTC analgesics such as Tylenol. 

TruSculpt iD treatment requires 2 sessions, 4-6 weeks apart.  Maximum results are visible after approximately 10-12 weeks, however some patients begin to see improvement after as little as 4 weeks.  Whereas liposuction actually removes fat through a hollow tube and suction instrument, Trusculpt does not remove the fat, but rather causes fat cell death.  This disruption of cells allows the fat to leak and shrink and are gradually expelled naturally by the body.  

TruSculpt Aftercare

The zero-downtime benefit makes TruSculpt iD a very appealing option. Drinking lots of water is important. It helps the fat cells travel through the lymphatic system and start to digest throughout the body. 

Unlike liposuction, there are no restrictions on exercise or normal activities associated with TruSculpt iD  treatment.

When Will I See Results After TruSculpt Treatment?

The procedure takes just a few minutes, and you can expect to see full results 6-12 weeks after your last treatment–that’s the amount of time  your body needs time to clear away the destroyed fat. 

With TruSculpt iD,  patients can get the definition they desire, even in treatment. areas that have been resistant to diet and exercise. One of the main advantages of TruSculpt iD  is that it is a simple procedure, requiring no anesthetic, no downtime, minimal discomfort, and maybe most importantly, no knives or needles!

Common Areas of TruSculpt Treatment

Thanks to the size of the handpiece,  TruSculpt iD can address a variety of concerns and target hard-to-reach areas of the body including the face, upper arms, inner thighs, abdomen, flanks, and back regardless of loose skin or skin laxity. 

Commonly Addressed Target Areas  

  • Double chin
  • Belly fat
  • Love handles (flanks)
  • Inner and outer thigh fat
  • Back fat
  • Wobbly upper arms
  • Butt fat

If you’re struggling with stubborn fat beneath the jaw, around the neckline, on your abdomen, flanks, inner or outer thighs, or upper arms, you’re not alone. Thanks to TruSculpt iD, a slimmer look can be yours in just a few minutes. The number of TruSculpt iD treatments required varies from person to person. That’s why we invite you to give us a call to set up a consultation.  Once we have an idea  of the problem and your goals, we’ll come up with an appropriate treatment plan that works for you. 

Because the procedure is non-invasive, there’s no downtime or recovery period. You simply come in, sit back, and let us work our magic. Then you can get on with the rest of your day as if nothing has happened.

How Do Liposuction Surgery and TruSculpt Nonsurgical Fat Reduction Treatment Compare?

In 2000, over 350,000 Americans underwent liposuction, making it the most popular cosmetic surgery that year. But in 2022, that number dropped dramatically, to just over 200,000.

While it seems that our population is getting heavier,  the number of people undergoing liposuction is getting smaller.

One reason for the decrease in fat-removing surgical procedures is the emergence of TGA-approved devices that eliminate body fat without diet, exercise, or surgery.

One common feature of both liposuction and TruSculpt iD is that maximum results take time to appear.  But that’s really where the comparison ends. 

Non-invasive, non-surgical TruSculpt iD is the latest fat reduction treatment that permanently eliminates up to 24% of unwanted fat with no pain, zero downtime, and no knives or needles needed.

With TruSculpt iD, patients can go back to their regular day-to-day lives immediately following their session.  There are no restrictions on activities including exercise.  In fact, patients are encouraged to exercise in concert with a healthy diet to derive maximum benefit from the treatment. 

TruSculpt is painless, and involves no incisions and no special garments to support the therapy.  And yet, people who’ve undergone truSculpt enjoy striking results, beginning only weeks after the conclusion of their treatments.  These are progressive, becoming more noticeable with time.

Because TruSculpt iD causes no damage to any soft tissue except the fat itself, there’s no bruising and no downtime.  Your body naturally eliminates the contents of fat cells over time, leaving your skin taut and your body sculpted.

Liposuction, on the other hand, is a good option for people who want to eliminate larger areas of fat.  The procedure is highly effective at removing unwanted stubborn  fat in the most common problem areas – inner and outer  thighs, abdomen, love handles, back, upper arms, face and neck. The results of liposuction are dramatic and striking. But liposuction definitely has its downsides: a long recovery period (often up to six weeks) and cost. The cost for liposuction is  quite a bit more than its nonsurgical counterparts because it is a surgical procedure involving anaesthesia  and the use of an operating room of some type.

At Specialist Skin Solutions,  a cosmetic clinic specialising in non-surgical, anti-ageing aesthetic procedures, including the latest laser techniques, dermal therapies, and anti-wrinkle injections, we proudly offer truSculpt® iD, the latest in state-of-the-art  fat melting, body chiseling techniques. 

We believe in transparency and education first and foremost, providing every client with information, explanations, and treatment options before performing any procedure.  Offering a thorough consultation prior to treatment, we’ll discuss the areas of concern and the range of treatment options suggested to produce optimal results.  

And because the number of  TruSculpt iD treatments varies from person to person, we’ll create an individualised treatment plan, discuss our pricing structure, and explain in detail what you can expect both during and after the procedure.

At Specialist Skin Solutions, we’re dedicated to helping each one of our clients feel their best by bringing out their natural beauty and loving the skin they’re in at any age. We look forward to speaking with you!

During the nine long months of pregnancy, many beauty routines and cosmetic procedures have to be put on hold. Once you’ve finally made it through to the other side and your beautiful newborn is in your loving arms, there will undoubtedly be times when sleep deprivation and the stress of new motherhood will show on your face and excess weight show on your body.  As a new mum, you might be excited to get back to your favourite beauty regimens or try something new. But for nursing mums, concerns over which treatments are safe and which are not will continue—if, not escalate.

New mothers generally drop approximately 5.5 kilos (12 pounds) as the uterus shrinks, but some stubborn fat persists long after giving birth. But it’s important not to be so tough on yourself. If you’re worried that your body hasn’t ‘bounced back’ right away, that’s because it’s not supposed to! You’re a human being—not a rubber band, and your body isn’t going to just snap back into place as if nothing even happened. It takes time.

Weight reduction timelines vary from person-to-person, and depend on a variety of circumstances like how much weight was gained during pregnancy, whether the mum is breastfeeding, diet and exercise habits, and activity level. For lactating mums, the time it takes to get back to pre-pregnancy physique can be even longer and more unpredictable as the body is still producing nutrients for the mum and her growing baby.

There is good news, however. While many of the fat-reduction and other cosmetic treatments that were off limits during pregnancy are also not recommended for the nursing mum, there are some treatments that are safe and available while breastfeeding.

The most important thing to know when discussing cosmetic procedures while breastfeeding is the potential risk of chemicals being absorbed into the mother’s system and then into breast milk and whether they can be harmful to a baby’s development.

What Science Says

According to two articles published in Dermatological Surgery and the International Journal of Women’s Dermatology, some cosmetic procedures are safe to use during lactation because there is little concern for significant systemic absorption of any of the agents used in these procedures.

Coolsculpting

CoolSculpting is not recommended for lactating mums because frozen fat cells that are destroyed and removed by the body during the CoolSculpting procedure could potentially make their way into a mother’s breast milk. It is highly recommended that lactating mothers should wait until they’ve finished breastfeeding before having a CoolSculpting procedure. But always consult your physician.

Breastfeeding may also result in hormonal changes. As a new mum’s hormones settle, the body tends to shift, resulting in unfavourable outcomes. To achieve the best outcomes, it’s advisable to wait around 6 months after nursing.

TruSculpt for Nursing Mums

While fat-reduction treatments of any kind are not recommended during pregnancy, non- invasive procedures like TruSculpt iD on areas of the body other than the breasts are safe and effective while nursing, there is often a period of weight loss that naturally comes with breastfeeding often a period of weight loss naturally with breastfeeding after pregnancy. After this period, TruSculpt iD can be a great method of melting stubborn fat in many areas.

Just like the case with the treatment of fat, many pregnancy-related cosmetic conditions will settle or change in the months after giving birth, so it may be worth waiting until hormones are back to normal and regular diet and exercise routines are resumed. Pregnancy is a magical time and the truth is, the most important thing is the health of the baby, but if after dropping a majority of your pregnancy weight you still have areas of stubborn fat that won’t go away with diet and exercise alone, truSculpt iD is an excellent solution for nursing moms.

What is truSculpt® iD?

TruSculpt iD is a non-surgical, non-invasive fat reduction procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to improve body definition, boost skin tightening, and destroy fat cells throughout the entire fat layer, from just below the skin down to the muscle. It’s commonly used to contour multiple areas including the abdomen and flanks, inner and outer thighs, the chin, and the upper arms. An alternative to invasive procedures like abdominoplasty or liposuction surgery, truSculpt does not involve the use of scalpels or stitches, and can be done in an office setting without anaesthesia, pain, or downtime in less than one hour.

TruSculpt iD uses innovative monopolar rf technology to target fat cells selectively in treatment areas. Using a handpiece the device is placed over the targeted area, while pulses of energy cause fat cells to heat up and shrink, promoting skin contraction for a slimming and smoothing effect. Easily adjusted to conform to each patient’s needs, the level of heat can be adapted, so each person feels comfortable and experiences very little to no pain.

TruSculpt iD is a clinically proven, highly effective, and completely safe treatment that permanently eliminates fat cells from even the hardest-to-reach areas. truSculpt® iD is the only TGA-approved device of its kind that offers a non-invasive treatment option for body sculpting and fat reduction, resulting in the dream body everyone desires.  It has been clinically proven to permanently reduce fat by up to 24% in as little as one treatment. Additional treatments may be required depending on fat thickness, skin type, number of treatment areas, and whether the patient has previously undergone other contouring procedures.

TruSculpt Procedure

By delivering radio frequency energy through the skin, fat cells absorb the energy in the form of heat, effectively destroying the unsightly fat without harming the skin at all. Once destroyed, the body naturally takes over and flushes out the old fat cells through the lymphatic system.

The procedure, which takes from 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated, feels like a warm sensation on the skin, similar to a hot stone massage. Patients have not reported any pain or discomfort during  the procedure and no prescription pain medications, cooling gels, or compression garments are required. Mild redness, swelling, and tenderness can last for approximately 10-12 hours, for which patients are advised to take mild OTC analgesics such as Tylenol.

How Many Treatments Required

TruSculpt iD treatment requires 2 sessions, 4-6 weeks apart. Maximum results are visible after approximately 10-12 weeks, however some patients begin to see improvement after as little as 4 weeks.

Ten years ago, the only treatment option available to kill fat cells for people with trouble losing weight who struggled with stubborn bulges resistant to diet and exercise was surgical liposuction. Today, clinically proven innovations in fat-reduction technology have supported the rise of non-invasive fat reduction treatments that offer pain, anaesthesia, and surgery-free alternatives.

But with all the different fat reduction treatments, it may be hard to know which one is best for you. In this article, we’ll go over the pros and cons of the most popular non-invasive fat reduction treatments on the market.

Book Your Appointment Today!  

How Non-Invasive Fat Reduction Treatments Work

Non-invasive fat reduction treatments utilise  different mechanisms to achieve the same objective: permanently destroying fat cells in upper arms, lower abdomen, double chin, inner and outer thighs, and stubborn areas throughout the body with minimal discomfort and without the use of general anesthesia. Some treatments work by destroying fat cells by exposing them to controlled cooling; some expose fat cells to heat. Other treatments use radiofrequency or ultrasonic injury to permanently eliminate fat cells. All treatments aim for lipolysis (lipo = fat cells + lysis = cell death.)

Top 6 Non-Surgical Fat Reduction Treatments

1. CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting is a popular, non-invasive fat reduction treatment that works by freezing fat cells to death using a mechanism that delivers precise controlled cooling to stubborn pockets of fat in multiple areas of the body including inner and outer thighs, upper arms, lower abdomen, and double chin. Patients experience a cold sensation and a mild tugging feeling for the first 5 minutes before the area goes numb. Coolsculpting treats localized fat that has resistance to diet though it does not replace a healthy lifestyle.

Treatment Time: 35 minutes to an hour.

Treatments needed: 2 to 4 treatments per area

Down time: No downtime; most patients may return to their normal activities immediately following their treatment.

Side effects: Potential side effects include minimal discomfort, mild swelling, tenderness, numbing, bruising, redness.

When Will I See  Results? Maximum results seen 8-12 weeks after the treatment. 

2. SculpSure (Laser Lipolysis)

Similar to CoolSculpting but, instead of using controlled cooling, Sculpsure heats up fat cells to the point of destruction using light based technology. Patients may experience a warm and tingly sensation during the procedure. 

Treatment Time:  25 minutes.

Treatments needed: 2-3 treatments per area.

Down time: No downtime; patients may return to their normal daily activities immediately following their treatment.

Side effects: Potential  stiffness and swelling.

When Will I See  Results? Maximum results seen 8-12 weeks after the treatment.

3. Zerona

Another laser-based technology that heats fat cells using a “cold laser,” Zerona is one of the most gentle fat reduction treatments, but also the least effective. Zerona requires patients to adhere to a strict diet following treatment.

Treatment Time: 40 minutes.

Treatments needed: 6 in a 2-week span

Down time: No downtime required; patients may return to their normal daily activities immediately following their treatment.

Side effects: Side effects are rare for most patients.

When will I see Zerona results? Many fat reduction treatment specialists would say you won’t.  If you do respond to the treatment,  Maximum results manifest several weeks after conclusion of the treatment programme.

4. Vanquish

Vanquish heats fat cells to death using radiofrequency. This unique mechanism can target larger areas of the body than other non-invasive fat reduction treatments. Vanquish is similar to other fat reduction treatments like liposuction, Venus Freeze, Trusculpt, or Ultrashape that utilise radiofrequency and/or ultrasonic energy to deliver thermal manipulation to fat cells.

Treatment Time: 30 to 60 minutes.

Treatments needed: 2-3 treatments per area.

Down time: No downtime required 

Side effects: Many patients report lumps and tenderness.

When will I see results? Within 8-12 weeks after the treatment.*

5. Emsculpt NEO

Emsculpt NEO is an upgraded version of the original Emsculpt, which focuses on building muscle. Besides building muscle, Emsculpt NEO incorporates radiofrequency energy to reduce fat and tighten the skin. Try this if you struggle to achieve your dream body through consistent exercise and a healthy diet!

EmSculpt Neo was introduced into the body contouring market by 2020 and has become the most advanced body contouring technique in recent times. It provides revolutionary weight-loss benefits as a combination of electromagnetic and electrical energy. Combined with these unique technology mixes, the system produces superior results. The system can reduce the body mass by 30 per cent and increase strength by 25% in just 3 days of operation. This technology is one of the best noninvasive fat removal techniques available today.

Treatment Time: On average, Emsculpt NEO sessions take half an hour to complete.

Treatments Needed: Typically, patients get six Emsculpt sessions over three weeks. Each session  will take place every two to three days.  

Downtime: No painful recovery; patients return to work or their daily routine after their sessions.

Side Effects: Mild soreness around the treatment area. 

When Will I See  Results? It can take six to eight weeks after a full treatment plan to see visible results.

6. Trusculpt

Trusculpt is a non-invasive body sculpting treatment that utilises  radiofrequency energy to heat fat tissues. Patients experience not only a reduction in fat but also tighter skin after the treatment.

Treatment Time: Trusculpt sessions are quick and easy. You can be in and out within fifteen minutes to an hour depending on your treatment area(s).

Treatments Needed: Trusculpt patients get optimal results from one to two treatments.

Down time:  One of the greatest advantages of Trusculpt is there’s minimal downtime after. Your skin may look redder than usual after your sessions. The redness should subside within an hour.

Side Effects: Trusculpt side effects are minimal compared to other cosmetic treatments. But it’s normal to experience mild redness and tenderness in the treated areas. After-effects usually go away without intervention within a few hours.

When Will I See Results?: Trusculpt outcomes differ per patient. But results may take four to six weeks to show.

Tackle weight gain successfully with non-surgical fat removal treatments

Nonsurgical fat removal techniques have risen in popularity over invasive fat removal systems like surgical liposuction because there are minimal to no side effects or down time. Noninvasive fat reductions an effective method of permanently destroying fat cells without the use of knives, needles, or anesthetics.

Why Choose Non-Invasive Fat Reduction

Liposuction, an invasive procedure, has long been the gold standard for effective fat reduction. However, the nature of such an invasive cosmetic treatment concerns many. Although effective, invasive procedures may include general anaesthesia, scalpels, stitches, scars, lengthy recovery times, and other adverse side effects.

Advancements in non-invasive cosmetic treatments have revolutionised the cosmetic industry. And in 2023, reducing fat has never been safer, easier, or more effective.

For Best Results, Choose the Best Provider

Choosing a trusted provider is as important as choosing a treatment. Read testimonials and review articles from clients to learn a bit about the company’s practices before booking an appointment. Check for real pictures of clients after transformation.

You go through a medical examination to see if a fat reduction technique will work well. They plan based on optimum weight reduction in affordable terms to achieve your goals.

If you’re at a loss about why you haven’t dropped a dress size after your first non-invasive fat reduction treatment, this article is for you!

Some areas of stubborn fat can be tough to shed, no matter how many carbs we limit or how many kilometers we run. Spots like abdominal bulges, flanks, flabby arms, and muffin tops just don’t seem to disappear  regardless of how hard you try. Fortunately, there’s a new class of non-surgical fat reduction treatments that makes it possible to get rid of these pesky fatty spots without knives or needles.

Clinically proven to permanently refine fat areas, TruSculpt is a breakthrough fat-eliminating procedure that works by using the latest non-ablative, innovative monopolar rf technology to target fat on any area and refine body definition.

And because TruSculpt actually kills off fat cells, results are seen within a matter of weeks.

Numbers Not Adding Up?

Have you recently undergone non-surgical fat loss treatment and are not happy with the immediate results? Or have you heard about others who have not achieved the desired effect after one treatment? If you’ve failed to see measurable results instantaneously following treatment, there’s no need to worry. In fact, it’s perfectly normal, and in this blog post, we’ll do our best to allay your concerns. 

True Measure of Success

If you were ever disappointed in what the measuring tape reads after a TruSculpt treatment,  there could be a reason the numbers aren’t adding up. Turns out, with TruSculpt  treatment, digits have little to do with the success of your results.

But, it’s understandable that after spending time and money on weight loss treatments of any kind to expect instant gratification. In fact, it’s human nature to want to see results—well, yesterday!  That’s why trendy diets and supplements that claim to help you lose weight overnight are so popular, even though the only numbers that are adding up are the dollars lining the pockets of brands that sell them. TruSculpt iD is not a passing fad. It’s a scientifically proven, non-invasive fat reduction treatment that’s both TGA and FDA approved. The next generation in surgery-free weight-loss, TruSculpt has been approved for up to 24% reduction in fat.

But unlike other treatments, TruSculpt does not freeze fat. With less side effects than Coolsculpt, the treatment is also much faster and requires no aftercare.

With a 15-minute treatment time, TruSculpt uses non-ablative, innovative monopolar RF technology that can target any area on the body. Other treatments can take about 105 minutes on average to complete, making TruSculpt the fastest on the market.

When it comes to losing weight however, we don’t really care about the technology or the claims—we want to see results, which is why it can be frustrating when we don’t drop a dress size after the first treatment.  We’ve been programed all our lives to look at the numbers on the scale, centimetres on the measuring tape, and the size of our jeans to measure our weight loss success story. But when it comes to defining our body for the long haul, however, traditional numbers aren’t all that matters. In fact, this outdated way of thinking is not only short sighted, but it can be harmful to our self-esteem.

TruSculpt treatment time is only 15 minutes.

People who think about numbers alone are more likely to have a skewed body image, which can result in eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia. But, these days, as body positivity continues to have a moment, more and more people are celebrating all shapes and sizes. It’s still okay to want to reduce a bulge, bump, or roll here or there.  

When you choose Specialist Skin Solutions, your TruSculpt body contouring expert will explain to you that losing weight is much more than a mathematical equation. After just 3-4 weeks, you’ll start to see the results in the mirror as your body naturally adapts to the process, not the scale!

Measuring Up

When it comes to taking measurements, many non-professionals just don’t measure up. Because taking accurate body measurements is not as easy as it looks, we highly recommend leaving this undertaking to the pros. 

Why Measuring Can Be Misleading

  • It can be difficult to remember the exact spot from measure to measure. When measuring your waist, for example,  you might inadvertently place the measuring tape a tiny bit above or below where you had it last time.
  • Measurements change with the time of day. Most of us begin to accumulate watereight as the day goes on, so how well you are hydrated can affect your measurements. 
  • If you begin a new fitness routine to go along with your body contouring goals, gaining muscle mass can also make the measure  inaccurate. 
  • If by the time it takes for you to notice results, though fat cells in the target area may have been permanently eliminated, new fat cells may have taken their place due to natural weight gain.  
  • Finally, because it takes about three months to see the final results from TruSculpt treatment, measuring more frequently can be deceiving (and can be upsetting.) Patience is key to measuring success.

When Will I See Results?

Let’s face it, the most important question you might ask is “How much weight will I lose?” Though fat loss will undoubtedly make a huge visual difference, it may not be enough to move the scale. Even if you weigh the same before and after treatment, don’t fret. The number on the scale has little to do with the success of the treatment.

What’s so amazing about TruSculpt is that while weight and measurement can fluctuate many times throughout life, TruSculpt actually eliminates fat cells in targeted areas permanently. That’s why TruSculpt is not  a weight loss procedure. It is, rather, a fat-reducing treatment. 

As much as it would be nice to see big rolls of excess belly fat disappear overnight, that’s not realistic and it would be unethical for any reputable provider to promise those results. TruSculpt ID is a TGA-approved technology meant to selectively target fat areas and refine body contours.  While some results can be seen after just one treatment, maximum results are visible after about 4 weeks, with the final results appearing after about 12 weeks. Though additional treatments may be required to achieve the personalised results you desire, 1 or 2 sessions are usually enough to create significant improvements.

Despite all the claims made by the latest workout equipment and the newest weight-loss programs, spot reduction through exercise and diet is essentially impossible. You can spend hours at the gym doing hundreds of crunches and cut down carb consumption to near zero, but that stubborn extra layer of fat on the abdomen, flanks, and thighs may never disappear.  Although dieting and exercise are essential for good health, sometimes a little extra push when it comes to building muscles  or shrinking pockets of fat is needed.

When Diets and Exercise Aren’t Enough

Whether you’re having no luck getting rid of belly fat or getting nowhere building ab muscles and surgery is out of the question for you, you’re not alone. If you’ve tried fad diets and workout regimens and still not seeing definition and smoothness on certain areas of your body, it can be quite frustrating.  Many people just like you are fed up with  jiggly arms, tummy rolls,  and flabby butts.

Which Treatment Is Best for You?

The most important thing to consider when choosing between truSculpt ID® and EMSCULPT® are your body sculpting goals.

truSculpt

Safe and effective technology, the truSculpt device uses innovative monopolar rf technology to target fat selectively and therapeutically heat it until fat cells are slowly removed and excreted through the body naturally.

TruSculpt iD delivers heat to the entire layer of fat while maintaining a comfortable skin temperature, to maintain patient comfort

Skin temperature is continuously monitored, and energy delivery is automatically adjusted to reach and hold a therapeutic temperature of >45ºC in the fat while maintaining a skin temperature of 3-4ºC cooler.

Penetrating deep to treat the entire fat layer from skin to muscle, result iD is clinically proven to permanently destroy fat cells.

Optimized energy delivery and heating enhances selective programmed cell death of the subcutaneous adipose tissue.

After 12 weeks, patients can expect app to 24% of excess fat reduction, depending on fat thickness.

Fat cells are excreted through the body naturally.

EMSCUPLT

EMSCULPT® is recommended for patients who want to build muscle mass, strengthen their core and achieve definition.If you want to look leaner and slimmer, truSculpt is the treatment for you. If on the other hand, you’re a bodybuilder or just want to get that six-pack you’ve always wanted, EMSCUPLT could be the procedure for you.With both truSculpt and Emsculpt, there are no incisions, no needles, and no downtime, with long-term results after a treatment session that lasts as little as thirty minutes.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Non-Surgical Fat Reduction?

Ideal candidates are anyone who has struggled to achieve a lean, sculpted abdominal area or a fuller, shapelier butt. Candidates who have not gotten satisfactory results from diet and exercise may benefit from non-surgical fat reduction techniques like ENSCULPT and truSculpt treatment.

Though men and women with all varieties of skin tone may be treated, non-invasive fat reduction treatments tend to deliver the best results to those already close to their ideal body weight, as the treatment is not meant as a weight-loss alternative. Those who are in otherwise healthy, physical condition, but just don’t have the time, patience, or desire to spend additional hours in the gym or make huge lifestyle changes to shred those stubborn pockets of fat will stand to benefit a great deal from these treatments.

Who Can Benefit from TruSculpt

  • People close to their ideal body weight who wish to tone and eliminate fat from stubborn spots like the abs, butt, and arms. 
  • People in good health
  • Anyone who has tried diet and exercise but can’t seem to reduce the fat in targeted areas
  • People who don’t want to go under the knife
