Do you have stubborn areas of unwanted fat that seem stuck in place, no matter how hard you exercise and watch what you eat? Wouldn’t it be great if you could melt that fat away? A revolutionary treatment called TruSculpt can do just that. It’s one of the many treatments offered by Dr. Michael I. Jacobs of New York, NY.
Are TruSculpt Results Permanent?
Yes. This amazing treatment permanently destroys fat cells, getting rid of unwanted fat for good. It won’t prevent future weight gain, however, so you’ll want to commit to a healthy lifestyle going forward to maintain your results.
What Type of Results Do Patients See?
This treatment can get rid of up to 24 percent of fat in the area being targeted. Patients love the fact that this treatment allows them to precisely target their problem areas, which is something that traditional weight loss and exercise plans can’t do.
Because this treatment jumpstarts collagen production, it also tightens the surrounding skin. This means patients don’t have to worry about shaping up their bodies, only to be left with loose skin.
How Does This Treatment Work?
This body-contouring treatment uses monopolar radiofrequency, which is delivered by applicators placed against the skin, to destroy fat cells. You’ll feel some warmth as the radiofrequency energy is transmitted, but you won’t experience any discomfort. Most treatments can be performed in less than an hour. During the weeks following your appointment, your lymphatic system will gradually flush those fat cells out of your body.
How Many Appointments Will I Need?
We often recommend either one or two treatments, scheduled roughly one month apart, to address a patient’s concerns.
Will I Need To Do Anything Special Before or After Treatment?
This convenient treatment does not require anything special in the way of preparation or aftercare. The only thing we’ll ask is that you remove piercings or other jewelry being worn in the area being treated.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
The abdomen and the flanks are two of the more popular parts of the body to have treated with TruSculpt. But this treatment system works all over the body, including on the arms, thighs, and knees. Some patients opt to have multiple areas treated.
What Sets This Apart From Other Body Sculpting Treatments?
It Requires Less Time
There are several body contouring treatment systems on the market that work in different ways to break down unwanted fat cells and tame problem areas. But other treatment systems tend to require longer, and multiple, sessions.
It’s Effective on Heavier Patients
Many other body contouring treatments are aimed at patients who are close to their goal weight, with a body mass index below 30. TruSculpt, however, can be effective on slightly heavier patients.
It Tightens Your Skin
Another feature that sets this treatment apart is its ability to tighten the skin in the treatment area. This means that not only will you be able to blast away those problem spots, but your skin in the area will also appear more youthful and rejuvenated.
What Advantages Are Associated With This treatment?
It Can Be Tailored for Each Patient
Everyone’s problem spots are different, and this versatile treatment can be customized for each patient. Whether you want to focus completely on the upper thighs or you want to address both the flanks and arms, we can design a treatment plan for you.
It Delivers Results Naturally
Although this treatment system will kill off unwanted fat cells immediately, it will take a couple of months for your body to dispose of those cells. This means your results will develop gradually, and you’ll never look as though you suddenly went and had work done. You’ll simply look as though you’ve been working out and taking terrific care of yourself.
It’s Easy and Non-Invasive
This treatment system makes it easy to tackle problem areas with no hassle and no downtime. Treatments are completely non-invasive and require no anesthesia. That means you’ll be able to get right back to your regular schedule afterward.
It’ll Help You Feel Great About Yourself
Some of the patients who seek out TruSculpt have problem spots that they’ve struggled with for years. Finally resolving those problem spots and achieving the figure they’ve long worked for feels amazing. Your clothes will fit better, and you’ll feel more confident about yourself. This treatment system can help you feel great about yourself again.
Who Is a Candidate?
You’re in Good Overall Health
Patients who undergo this treatment should be in good general health and should not be pregnant. Patients with metal implants in the part of the body being treated, or who have cardiac pacemakers, generally are not considered candidates.
You’re Ready for a Moderate Amount of Body Sculpting
This treatment won’t help you shed a lot of weight, but it can sculpt your body by toning down problem areas and fine-tuning your physique.
You Can Commit to a Healthy Lifestyle
TruSculpt makes it easy to get rid of unwanted fat, but it will be up to you to maintain your results. The ideal patient can commit to a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise and a conscientious diet.
You’re Realistic
Patients should have realistic expectations about what this treatment can accomplish. This approach to body contouring offers results that are more subtle and refined than what can be achieved with some more invasive options.
Treatment Q&A
Does This Address Cellulite?
Cellulite generally forms when fat builds up around the cords that attach the skin to the muscles that lie below. When the cords are pulled taut by accumulating fat, they tug at the skin from below, resulting in the rumpled surface known as cellulite. Although this treatment system rids the body of unwanted fat, it is not considered a solution for cellulite.
Will This Treatment Interfere With a Tattoo?
No. This treatment will not change or distort any tattoos you have in the area being addressed.
Is This a Safe Treatment Option?
Yes. This treatment has been approved by the FDA and has been widely and safely used on patients with all skin types and tones.
How Much Warmth Will I Feel During Treatment?
Some patients describe the warmth associated with this treatment as being equivalent to that of a heating pad or a hot stone massage. This warmth may leave your skin with a flushed appearance immediately after your treatment, but this will subside quickly.
How Does This Compare With Liposuction?
Liposuction is another option for patients looking to get rid of unwanted fat. Liposuction is a more invasive approach because it involves making an incision in the treatment area through which unwanted fat is siphoned out. Liposuction also is performed with anesthesia, and a period of recovery is involved. Liposuction usually allows the patient to have more fat removed, but many patients opt for the ease and convenience of TruSculpt.
Is This a Weight Loss Treatment?
TruSculpt should not be viewed as a weight-loss treatment or a solution for obesity. While this treatment is ideal for bringing small problem areas under control, it will not help you shed large amounts of weight.
Do Male Patients Ever Have This Treatment Performed?
Yes. This treatment is popular with both female and male clients.
Will My Health Insurance Cover This Treatment?
Because this body sculpting treatment is usually performed for purely cosmetic purposes, health insurance generally does not cover it.
What Is the Best Age To Undergo This Treatment?
This treatment is generally only performed on patients age 18 and older, but it is suitable for adults of all ages. The right time to seek treatment is whenever you’ve tried unsuccessfully to resolve problem areas and are ready to start seeing results.
Can This Treatment Get Rid of My Double Chin?
Although it is not the most common area of the body addressed, this treatment can be used to reduce the fullness that sometimes develops beneath the chin. Patients who are concerned about a double chin routinely seek this treatment out.
Get the Figure You’ve Been Working Toward
If you have problem spots that haven’t responded to diet and exercise, and you’re ready to finally achieve the physique you’ve been working so hard for, it may be time to give this amazing treatment a try.
