How does truFlex™ Work?
Handpieces connected to the truFlex™ machine are applied to specific muscle groups while multi-directional stimulation (MDS) technology gently contracts the muscles. The MDS technology is deliverable in three different levels, by replicating intense crunch, squat, and twisting actions in the muscles that are otherwise only achieved through intense workouts. The three modes include:
- Prep Mode: Causes a twisting motion that warms up and stretches the muscles, while slowly building a tolerance to the muscle contractions delivered by the machine.
- Tone Mode: In this mode, the muscles are contracted and held until the point of exhaustion. Then the muscles are relaxed to build strength and increase endurance.
- Sculpt Mode: In sculpt mode, the truFlex™ machine causes fast, deep, and sequential contractions of the muscles to help build muscle mass.
Not all modes will be used in each treatment, and the number of treatments needed will vary from patient to patient. Working together with your provider, you can develop a treatment that best addresses your desired look.
Is truFlex™ Uncomfortable?
Muscle sculpting using truFlex™ and its electrical muscle stimulation technology is pain-free and requires no downtime. You will feel slight muscle contractions that will gradually intensify over the course of your treatment, but they will always remain comfortable.
What Makes truFlex™ Different from Other Muscle Sculpting Treatments?
truFlex™ stands out amongst other muscle sculpting procedures for its many benefits that go beyond just the physical glow-up achieved. These differences include:
- Speed – truFlex™ is a fast procedure with up to eight areas able to be treated in each 45-minute session.
- Safety – The unique truControl™ technology provides safe and consistent results through targeted, selective, and customizable delivery ensuring results and patient comfort.
- Efficacy – Three treatment mode options are available to customize the results to each patient’s goals. Results start to become visible after only the second session making it a quickly effective option.
- Increased Muscle Thickness – Clinical studies have shown an average of a 30% increase in muscle mass.
- Versatility – truFlex™ can be personalized to treat all different fitness levels, body shapes, goals, and areas of the body. Some popular treatment areas include the abdomen, inner/outer thighs, arms, buttocks, and lower back.
What is truFlex™ Recovery Like?
truFlex™ muscle sculpting is a noninvasive treatment that requires no recovery time. This means that immediately after each treatment, patients can return to their normal activities and routines. You may notice some tingling or tenderness at the treatment site, not unlike the soreness you would expect after a workout, but this should subside after one to three days.
How Long Will truFlex™ Results Last?
The maximum results will be visible 8-12 weeks after your final truFlex™ session. As long as your weight remains stable, you should be able to maintain the results and benefits of truFlex™. Booster treatments can be scheduled should you feel they are necessary.
Frequently Asked Questions about truFlex™
What is TruSculpt Flex?
TruSculpt flex is a non-invasive muscle sculpting treatment for strengthening, firming, and toning the abdominal, buttocks, and thigh muscles. TruSculpt flex can increase the appearance of muscle tone by inducing muscle contractions using electric currents.
What does it take weeks to see my results?
The 8 to 12-week waiting period between truSculpt iD treatments is typically recommended to allow for the body’s natural processes to take effect and for the full results of the treatment to become apparent. It’s essential to follow the recommended treatment schedule provided by your healthcare provider to achieve the best possible results while minimizing the risk of complications. Remember that individual results may vary, and the waiting period can vary based on the specific protocol used by the provider and the patient’s unique circumstances. Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding truSculpt iD treatments and their timing.
What is the difference between TruSculpt iD and TruSculpt Flex?
TruSculpt iD and truSculpt flex are two different non-invasive body contouring treatments offered by the same company, Cutera. They use different technologies and target different body sculpting and muscle toning aspects. TruSculpt iD primarily focuses on reducing fat and enhancing body contouring using radiofrequency technology. On the other hand, truSculpt flex is centered around strengthening and toning muscles in specific areas of the body using electrical muscle stimulation. The choice between the two treatments depends on your particular goals and whether you want to address fat reduction, muscle toning, or a combination of both. Consulting with a qualified healthcare provider or aesthetic specialist can help determine which treatment best suits your needs.
Who is a good candidate for TruSculpt Flex?
TruSculpt Flex is a non-invasive muscle sculpting and toning treatment that can benefit a range of individuals with specific goals related to muscle improvement and toning. Good candidates for truSculpt flex typically include: individuals seeking muscle toning or those with stubborn areas of weakness. All candidates are healthy individuals who need a bit of assistance toning their body and do not have any metal or electronic implants. Both men and women can benefit from this treatment.
Why is there an advised waiting period between treatments?
A waiting period is advised for three factors: Fat Elimination, Collagen Production and Skin Tightening, and Results and Assessment. TruSculpt iD uses radiofrequency energy to heat and destroy fat cells in the treated area. After the treatment, the body needs time to metabolize and naturally eliminate damaged fat cells. This process can take several weeks. In addition to fat reduction, truSculpt iD can also stimulate collagen production, which helps to tighten the skin in the treated area. Collagen production is a gradual process, and it takes time for the new collagen to form and improve skin elasticity and texture. Waiting 8 to 12 weeks between treatments allows healthcare providers and patients to assess the results more accurately. It allows you to see the full extent of fat reduction and skin tightening achieved with the initial treatment before deciding whether additional sessions are necessary.
What steps should I follow post TruSculpt Flex treatment?
Following your treatment, you should increase your water intake for at least 24 hours to ensure that you stay hydrated and do not overheat. You can exercise lightly the day after treatment, just be careful to not overdo it. Be sure to avoid lotions and perfumes for 24 hours after treatment
