TruSculpt Flex vs TruSculpt iD: How to choose?

Body sculpting surgery is becoming an increasingly common way for people to make their bodies look the way they want. Since many options for body sculpting require surgery, patients are ecstatic to know that there are non-invasive alternatives on the market as well. Trusculpt Flex and Trusculpt iD are two great options for building muscle mass and shedding stubborn fat.

What is Trusculpt iD?

Trusculpt iD is a treatment that can reduce fat anywhere on the body in as little as 15 minutes. Using radiofrequency, fat cells are heated until they are destroyed. The body then naturally eliminates the cells. Although the heating process may cause some discomfort, radiofrequency treatment will not damage the epidermis.

Patients can expect fat loss of up to 24% after just one treatment. Since multiple body parts can be treated at once, Trusculpt iD is a time-saving treatment option for those who are dissatisfied with multiple body parts. Common treatment sites include the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and arms.

In most cases, only one treatment is needed. Although Trusculpt iD works well, it takes at least 6 weeks for results to show, and most people need to wait up to 12 weeks to see the best results.

What is Trusculpt Flex?

Trusculpt Flex is another body sculpting option. However, this one focuses on muscle toning rather than fat burning. This treatment works by sending electricity to your muscles. These electrical currents mimic your body's natural impulses, producing strong muscle contractions. The devices used in this treatment are FDA-approved and completely safe.

The device stimulates blood flow and metabolism within muscles in specific areas of the body, which increases muscle tone and definition. Each treatment is like an intense workout in the gym.

During your Trusculpt Flex treatment, you may feel an involuntary contraction of your muscles, which is a strange feeling. These contractions can become more intense as treatment progresses, causing discomfort. The day after your treatment, you may feel sore, similar to how you feel during an intense workout at the gym. When treating the abs, you'll experience the equivalent of 54,000 manual sit-ups every 45 minutes.

In general, a Trusculpt Flex treatment plan will consist of six treatments. Each treatment is done every few days.
