FAQ for truSculpt® 3D

What does truSculpt® 3D do?

This non-invasive technique uses radio frequencies to deliver therapeutic heat to targeted areas of fat. As the tissue heats up, fat cells are destroyed, then naturally processed by the body. This method is especially effective in spots typically resistant to changes in diet and exercise, such as the lower abdomen. 

How fast will you see results?

The targeted radio-frequencies allow for visible results in the shortest possible treatment times. Patients can expect an average of 24% fat reduction from a single treatment. Body sculpting results are usually visible in about 12 weeks.

How long does a session take?

How long the treatment takes depends on the size of the area to be addressed. A session encompassing popular problem areas like the abdomen and flanks could take about one hour. 

Where can truSculpt® 3D be applied? 

Body sculpting can be used for both larger areas, like the abdomen, as well as smaller areas like the thighs. It's also versatile in other ways, proving effective for patients with different skin types and laxity.

Does it hurt? 

No. You will feel the heat, but the discomfort isn't any more than you'd expect with a procedure like a hot stone massage. There won't be any visible marks requiring downtime or healing. You can return to work or school immediately.
