truSculpt iD is the newest body sculpting treatment from top laser manufacturer Cutera.

It provides a personalized, hands-free and hand-held solution to permanent fat reduction and body contouring.

It uses several hand pieces that offer more placement options and for multiple areas to be targeted simultaneously.

This powerful ‘MonoPolar Radio Frequency Hyperthermia’ platform is tailored to each patients’ individual needs and features.

The truSculpt iD treats the entire area of stubborn fat as well as the deeper layers. This will result in an average fat reduction of 24%.

The treatment is customized with 15-minute protocols that can treat the full abdomen or multiple areas of fat simultaneously.

Body Sculpting has two definitive approaches, invasive and non-invasive.

Invasive fat removal procedures, like Liposuction and tummy tucks, were the de facto body contouring methods of the past.

These are relatively simple procedures, performed by board certified plastic surgeons, that have dramatic results. They can essentially change entire silhouettes from one day to the next.

However, there are obvious downsides associated with such dramatic changes, like swelling, discomfort and even infections.

Non-invasive body sculpting takes a radically different approach. Instead of rapid changes, non invasive methods stimulate our body’s natural functions to eliminate fat.

This usually involves using gentler, non surgical methods, like laser lipolysis, ultrasound, or Radio Frequency. These different types of energies are directed towards fat deposits to disrupt cell function, causing irreversible fat cell damage.

The body then proceeds to remove the destroyed fat cells from the body through its natural pathways, like the bladder.

Non invasive body sculpting has quite an impressive success rate. A study published by the ‘Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology’ revealed that:

“Overall 44% of patients had more than 75% improvement, 32% of patients experienced 50% to 75% improvement, 20% of the patients had between 25% to 50% improvement and only 4% had less than 25% improvement.”

Thats a pretty impressive group of statistics.

The technology being developed by the aesthetic device manufacturers in recent years has advanced to the point where surgical procedures simple aren’t necessary for far reduction.

Cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery methods, by definition, are infinitely more invasive than non-surgical cosmetic procedures.

At Miami Skin Spa we don’t perform any invasive procedures. We prefer that all of our patients are able to leave refreshed and ready to get back to their normal activities.

This is something that surgical procedures do not allow for.

However, before considering any non invasive body contouring, your medical history should be reviewed and discussed with your primary physician.

Whereby you will discuss your expectations, outcomes, and risks of the procedures, to find out if you are a suitable candidate.

CoolSculpting is an FDA-cleared, noninvasive body contouring technology that eliminates fat cells for good in a number of areas.

Studies have shown that the treatment is effective for fat reduction, and it has a number of benefits over traditional surgical body contouring methods.

CoolSculpting is by far the most popular body shaping treatment, however this is largely because it was approved in 2010, much earlier than any competing devices.

But is it still the best.

CoolSculpting, or cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive treatment that freezes of fat cells in targeted areas.

Freezing the fat cells causes them too effectively ‘die’ and leads to them being excreted from the body.

It works by placing a roll of fat within two panels, then bringing it down to freezing temperatures until the fat is permanently damaged and secreted.

According to studies, after 6 months up to 25% of fat can be removed using CoolSculpt.
