TruSculpt Fat Reduction

truSculpt offers a multitude of advantages, primarily distinguished by its non-surgical approach to tackling persistent excess fat and addressing skin laxity concerns across the body. This results in a sculpted and tightened appearance. Remarkably, the treatment is completed swiftly in under 30 minutes and is associated with no downtime, allowing patients to promptly return to their daily activities. Moreover, truSculpt's adaptability is a key feature, as it can be meticulously tailored to address your specific concerns. Whether dealing with challenging-to-reach small areas or larger expanses, it effectively caters to various tissue densities, ensuring a comprehensive and personalized solution.

Before commencing the truSculpt treatment, the designated areas will be clearly marked, and adhesive pads will be applied to these regions, creating a secure foundation for the truSculpt applicators. These applicators, available in various sizes, including a handheld device, will then be positioned over the targeted treatment area. To ensure their stability throughout the session, the applicators will be securely fastened. The truSculpt procedure is often likened to the sensation of a warm stone massage, providing a therapeutic and comfortable warmth that effectively elevates the temperature of the underlying fat layer to approximately 45 degrees, thereby initiating programmed cell death.

The treatment duration can vary, spanning from 15 to 30 minutes, contingent on the size of the treatment area and the number of areas being addressed. Remarkably, results may become discernible after a single treatment, with optimal outcomes typically manifesting around 12 weeks following the final session.

truSculpt is an individualised and precision-based treatment, rendering it suitable for a wide range of individuals. It proves most advantageous for those who have attained their desired, sustainable weight yet continue to contend with persistent fat deposits and excess skin across various body areas. However, it is essential to note that this treatment is not advised for individuals with pacemakers, metal implants in the targeted treatment area, or those who are presently pregnant. Furthermore, truSculpt may offer only mild skin tightening for individuals with pronounced skin laxity. To assess your eligibility and explore the potential benefits of this treatment, we strongly recommend initiating a consultation with our expert team.

truSculpt is a versatile treatment that can effectively target areas on the body where excess fat is a concern. While it can be applied to various regions, the most frequently treated areas include:

1. Upper and lower abdomen
2. Upper arms
3. Inner and outer thighs
4. Buttocks
5. Flanks
6. Chin and jawline
7. Back

Skin tightening and fat reduction effects become visible after just one treatment. However, it's essential to keep in mind that maximum results will take approximately 12 weeks to fully manifest. During this time, the damaged fat cells gradually dissipate and are naturally absorbed by the body.

After the procedure, the treated area will be warm and flushed but this will resolve in a day or so.  You can return to normal activities and fitness programs immediately after the treatment.

Because of the mechanism of action, the skin will tighten to an extent. If however, there is pre-existing skin laxity of marked degree, this should not be expected to totally disappear.

The average volume reduction at treatment sites is 24%. This may be sufficient for many people from one treatment, however, additional treatments may be required to achieve the personalised results you desire.

truSculpt does not employ any cancer-inducing radiation, nor does it add any substances to the body. Other than for those patients who have internal appliances such as cardiac pacemakers or defibrillators, most who have appropriate indications, would be considered suitable for the procedure.

Because the applicators are quite versatile, many body parts may be considered suitable, from under-chin and other small areas around the bra-line to wider areas like abdomens and flanks as well as thighs, both inner and outer.

The fat cells that go after treatment with truSculpt®do not return, however, those that remain may increase in size. If weight is gained, it will tend to distribute over the whole body, rather than preferentially going to the “problem areas” that have been treated, so body proportion tends to be maintained, however fat will still be stored all over. It is best to maintain a healthy lifestyle, with sensible diet and exercise, to ensure overall health and well-being.

truSculpt and CoolSculpting are both non-surgical methods of localised fat reduction, whereas liposuction is a surgical procedure. Liposuction will require some form of anaesthesia, either local, with or without sedation or general anaesthesia. This will involve small cuts in the skin and is a much more invasive procedure which will require recovery time and, usually, the wearing of special compression garments afterwards. The side effect profile is also, as with all more invasive procedures, greater.

CoolSculpting is a non-surgical procedure which uses controlled cooling to a precise temperature to produce its effect. truSculpt® employs radiofrequency to produce controlled heating to a precise temperature to produce its effect. So both of these are producing similar effects at the opposite ends of the temperature spectrum. truSculpt® treatments are shorter and the placement of the applicators means that it is a bit more versatile in terms of areas that may be treated.
