truSculpt

How it works

truSculpt is a Cutera body contouring system that works with monopolar radiofrequency. RF energy warms the tissue under the skin, including the fat layer, to a set range. The heat is intended to reduce some fat over time as the body clears affected cells. Skin cooling is used during treatment. It is meant for localized areas, not for weight loss. Results vary by person and by area.

Good to know

• Ask how long each area is treated and how the temperature is monitored.
• Warmth is expected; strong heat should be reported.
• Mild redness or tenderness may follow.
• Results vary, and a series is often discussed.

Asking about truSculpt in English

Names like "truSculpt iD" and "truSculpt flex" exist, and they differ. Ask the coordinator to confirm which truSculpt product is used and which area it will treat. Ask for it in writing.

Ask the doctor how progress will be tracked, such as photos and measurements. A useful question is, "What result is realistic for my body?" Ask what to do if the area feels hard or sore. Keep before photos in the same pose and light.
