Fat Reduction in truSculpt® in Jacksonville, FL

truSculpt flex is a muscle sculpting device that offers personalized treatments based on patient fitness level, shape, and goals. Only truSculpt flex with Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS) deploys a unique method of electrical muscle stimulation to target specific muscle groups using three treatment mode options, covering the largest treatment area in the body sculpting industry.

truSculpt flex provides three treatment modes with the help of the proprietary Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS) technology. The three treatment modes include prep mode, tone mode, and sculpt mode and are based on the utilization of electric pulses of 3 different frequencies. The three treatment modes simulate different exercises and provide complete muscle stimulation. These modes include:

• Prep Mode: this mode creates twisting motions similar to those experienced during warm-up exercises. It involves stretching of muscles and slowly build a tolerance to muscle contractions
• Tone Mode: this mode is similar to performing squats and involves contracting muscles until the point of exhaustion. This mode mimics strength training programs and results in increased strength and endurance
• Sculpt Mode: this mode is similar to performing crunches and involves fast, deep, sequential contractions of the muscles. This mode mimics muscle building programs involving the development of new muscle fibers. An increased muscle mass is also accompanied by a simultaneous elevation of basal metabolic rate (BMR) for the growth and support of muscle mass

The best candidates for truSculpt nonsurgical fat reduction are people who have one or more areas on their body that they'd like to improve without having to undergo a surgical procedure. People considering nonsurgical fat reduction typically struggle with small pockets of fat on their abdomen, flanks, thighs, or arms. It's important to note that nonsurgical fat reduction with truSculpt is not a weight loss solution. Patients should already be at or near their goal weight and just want greater muscle definition.

Nonsurgical fat reduction with truSculpt is an outpatient procedure that we perform on-site at our office in Jacksonville, FL. To start, we'll clean the designated area and will use the truSculpt device to target the underlying muscles and fat. This treatment can address multiple areas in as little as 15 minutes. Most patients say that the treatment feels like a relaxing hot stone massage. During this time, Dr. Pentel can also use the Profound system to complement your treatment. 

Since nonsurgical fat reduction with truSculpt is noninvasive, there's no downtime associated with this procedure, which means that patients can return to their usual routine immediately afterward. The treated areas may look red and feel warm, but this is normal and will dissipate after a couple of hours. Although you may see some results after just one treatment, they will continue to improve over the next 12 weeks, revealing a leaner and tighter definition.
