truSculpt 3D



TruSculpt 3D is an innovation RF (Radio Frequency) device that gives the skin-deep heat. This causes the fat cells to die thus creating non-invasive fat reduction, body sculpting/contouring treatment. In the process, it can temporally reduce the appearance of cellulite. It is designed to treat almost any area of the body. A sample of areas include the abdomen, flanks, thighs, buttocks, arms and other stubborn regions where fat lingers. TruSculpt 3D is comfortable and requires no anesthetic. It is virtually pain free. Most patients describe the treatment as a hot stone massage and others report almost no sensation of heat at all.


During a typical treatment, a small hand piece releases radiofrequency energy. This is placed over the targeted area and a small surrounding area. This energy cause fat cells to heat up and program them to liquefy and be removed through the lymphatic process after dying. The energy released from the heat from the TruSculpt 3D also causes skin contraction for a slimming and smoothing effect on the skin. There is no downtime with this treatment, allowing you to return to your normal activity following treatment immediately. Patients will see significant improvement approximately 8 weeks following one TruSculpt 3D treatment and full results up to 3 months after. Additional sessions may be required to obtain desired results if more than usual results are expected.



After a brief pre-treatment preparation, the TruSculpt 3D hand piece is applied to the skin. The hand piece will deliver a pulse of RF (Radio Frequency) energy that that will last 15 minutes on each treatment area. The hand piece will then be moved to the next treatment area to which this process will be repeated until the entire treatment area has been covered. The TruSculpt 3D System is designed to provide an easy and relaxed procedure for non-invasive fat removal and body sculpting/contouring. The small issues that can arise include redness, sweating and mild tenderness in the treated areas. This may last up to a full day depending on your skin type. Bruising in the treatment area does occur but rarely. Usually, most of the side effects resolve in an hour.



The most unique advantage of the TruSculpt 3D is that it is well documented to help tighten lax skin because of the radio frequency energy. RF has been used for many years as an energy source for tightening facial skin. Modifying how the energy is delivered by the TruSculpt 3D, lets the device decrease fat and tighten the skin at the same time.

What can I expect during a treatment session?



We use a fine needle to inject Botox® directly into the facial muscles in the designated treatment area. Injection sessions typically last between 15 and 20 minutes and have minimal discomfort associated with them. At the patient’s request, a topical numbing cream can be applied to the treatment area prior to an injection session to further reduce any discomfort. This is a minimally-invasive aesthetic treatment and has little to no downtime associated with it. Patients are typically able to return to their normal activities immediately following an injection session.



When will I see results?



You will begin to see a noticeable improvement in the treated area within 24 to 48 hours of an injection session. The final results of Botox® injections are typically visible within two weeks of an injection session with potential continued improvement for up to one month. The results of this aesthetic treatment can last for up to four months. Results may vary.
