At Rapt Beauty, we are providers of truSculpt iD: the non-invasive fat removal procedure that takes only minutes to perform. This month, we discuss how truSculpt iD works, what it treats, and the results you can achieve.
What is truSculpt iD?
TruSculpt iD is the latest body contouring treatment made by Cutera. It is non-invasive and pain-free.
At Rapt Beauty, we believe that being healthy and happy is essential to body positivity and embrace all body types and shapes. We know that feeling comfortable and confident within yourself is vital to maintaining a positive mind and healthy living. TruSculpt iD is a safe and effective approach to losing fat that won’t budge with diet or exercise.
What areas are treatable?
Trusculpt iD can sculpt the body and target specific areas of concern. A number of areas can be treated, including the arms or thighs, stomach or chin for a more refined appearance.
How does it work?
A low frequency and uniform delivery of heat technology penetrates the layer of fat cells. These fat cells are then removed by the body over time and are then excreted naturally over a 12-week process.
“Clinical histology indicates that truSculpt iD is clinically proven to cause inflammation and fat necrosis from beneath the dermis down to 1.5 cm in depth. The histological findings are complemented by clinical studies which show an average 24% fat reduction as measured by ultrasound.” – Cutera
How does truSculpt iD target fat?
TruSculpt iD uses thermal energy to eliminate fat cells. During your treatment, the device is placed over your selected treatment area and gradually heats in cycles. The monopolar RF energy in the device is absorbed by heating the layer of fat evenly whilst maintaining a comfortable temperature. The delivery of heat from the device sustains a therapeutic temperature of over 45ºC inside the layer of fat, whilst the skin temperature stays 3-4ºC cooler.
By heating these fat cells, truSculpt iD triggers apoptosis (programmed cell death), and the cells are irreversibly damaged, causing natural excretion through our bodies over the next 12 weeks.
Additional benefits
Radiofrequency technology can be used as a skin tightening tool. TruSculpt iD has been proven to be beneficial for skin elasticity by promoting the body’s natural regenerative abilities, which causes an increase in the production of skin-supporting proteins.
