trusculpt vs laser lipo

Body Sculpting, other name for Body Contouring, is one of the most highly sought after medical procedure in aesthetic industry in this day and age in terms of body reshaping.

As it paved its way to where it stands now in the industry, so as the opportunities of so many people who are having a hard time recovering back their old body shape and the lost firmness and radiance of their skin.

Body sculpting, as the name suggests, refers to aesthetic procedures that eliminates body fat surgically or non-surgically, either by freezing or heating fat cells.

These type of treatments give out favorable results to the clients in the most effective and fastest way possible.

Among these cosmetic treatments are Laser Lipo and Trusculpt.

About Laser Lipo

Traditional Liposuction, or lipoplasty, is the first aesthetic innovation in line to body sculpting.

It is effective in a way and many still prefer having this procedure as it doesn’t cost that much.

However, it has a lot of down side which involves bruises, soreness, and numbness.

Hard scraping is its way of removing body fat between the muscle and skin using a high pressure vacuum that sucks out the fat called cannula.

It is an invasive treatment that may place the clients at higher health risks since the procedure requires injecting anesthetics (general anesthesia) to the client and a lots of medications post-treatment.

The advancement of this first innovation gave birth to Laser Lipo, an enhanced alternative to traditional liposuction.

In the same manner as traditional liposuction, eliminating fat with laser lipo involves sraping, but the work is much easier because of the laser technology that helps melt fat faster than merely scraping and sucking it out.

Laser melts fat by liquefying it smoothly, thus getting rid of fats won’t be hard.

The result? Many patients complain that they have had “dimples” or spots after the treatment.  

About Trusculpt

Trusculpt-id in Miami is the most advanced and customization form of fat reduction available on the market today.

Unlike the traditional liposuction, it is a non-invasive and a non-surgical procedure.

No incisions and no anesthetics are needed in this body contouring treatment.

Trusculpt uses a low mono-polar radio frequency (MRF) technology, a technique that uses heat to “kill” fat cells.

The body then eliminates these fat cells naturally through metabolic processes. 

Trusculpt has two variations: Trusculpt ID and Trusculpt 3D.

Each variation has different method or way of treatment.

Trusculpt 3D utilizes a handheld device that is applied to the surface of the skin in a gliding motion.

This device emits controlled heat to treat the most hard to reach and stubborn areas such as thighs, upper arms, flanks, love handles and a lot more.

Trusculpt ID uses six hands-free and handheld pieces that are flexible, and doesn’t limit the areas that can be treated at the same time.

These pieces also emit the same level of heat as in Trusculpt 3D.

Covering much more and treating difficult to reach areas simultaneously are notable advantages of this variation compared to treatments that make use of single handheld devices that can only treat one area at a time.

Laser Lipo Versus Trusculpt

These two body contouring treatments has a lot of factors that can be differentiated.

First off is the technology behind each treatment.

Laser Lipo uses laser technology in melting away fat repositories under the skin.

Compared to low monopolar radio frequency, laser technology uses high frequency light waves as energy source which can burn underlying skin during the process.

Hence, posts potential harm to the clients.

Trusculpt make use of just enough controlled low radio frequency to decrease adipose cells.

The penetration of the treatment is so deep that it passes through the deepest layer of the skin, targeting hard-to-reach fat repositories underneath.

Another benefit that you can get as an outcome from Trusculpt is it stimulates collagen synthesis.

Aside from melting fats, the process of heating the body tissues using radio frequency help boosts collagen and elastin production of the skin.

As a result, it brings back the skin’s firmness. Although “killing” the cells sound alarming, it does it in a gentle way, leaving surrounding muscles and tissues unscathed. 

Another point to differentiate is the procedure of each treatment.

In Laser Lipo, incisions and anesthetics are present, whereas in Trusculpt, none of those are a requirement.

Laser Lipo is a surgical and minimally invasive treatment.

Like the traditional liposuction procedure, a cannula is used to suck out fat that is melted by a specific wavelength of laser in the targeted area.

Because of the anesthetics, no pain can be felt during the procedure, however, you will feel pain after the surgery and you may have minimal scars because of the incisions.

Infection can also be acquired.

Trusculpt-id, on the other hand, is a non-surgical and a non-invasive procedure.

It is painless, and the heat coming from the device is closely monitored for the convenience of the patients.

Having a “hot stone massage” is more likely the best description for this procedure. 

Nothing can be more satisfying than seeing the result right after the treatment.

Both procedures can deliver visible results in one session only.

A promising average of 24% decrease of body fat is a proven result with Trusculpt after a single treatment.

Results with laser lipo will be more noticeable once the soreness and swelling are gone.

How about downtime? Considering the laser lipo involves surgery, you cannot go back to your old routine right away.

Medications post-treatment might be prescribed as well.

On the contrary, there is no downtime with Trusculpt.

No time off work, and no post medications. Redness on the skin may occur post-treatment but it will just go away.

Treatment per area with Trusculpt would take 15 minutes. Laser Lipo takes for about 45 minutes to an hour.

Both procedure can give you good results, but on a safer note, Trusculpt would be the best option.

Getting the best result with minimal time per session minus the incisions, medications and downtime could not be more sufficient.
