At Midwest Surgical Arts, we offer cutting-edge body sculpting treatments— TruSculpt and TruFlex — designed to help you achieve your aesthetic goals with non-invasive, clinically proven technology.
What is TruSculpt?
TruSculpt is a non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses monopolar radiofrequency (RF) energy to target and destroy fat cells. This advanced technology heats fat layers beneath the skin, permanently eliminating fat while also tightening and smoothing the skin’s surface.
How It Works
- RF energy penetrates deep into fat layers, heating and breaking down fat cells.
- The body naturally eliminates these destroyed fat cells over time.
- Patients experience a comfortable, warm sensation, similar to a hot stone massage.
What is TruFlex?
TruFlex is a muscle-sculpting treatment that strengthens, tones, and firms targeted muscle groups using electrical stimulation. It replicates the effects of an intense workout, helping you build muscle definition without spending hours at the gym.
How It Works
- Uses Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS) technology to contract muscles in different ways.
- Mimics crunches, squats, and twisting exercises to increase muscle mass.
- Provides three unique treatment modes for personalized results.

Benefits of TruSculpt & TruFlex
- Non-Invasive and Convenient – These treatments require no surgery, incisions, or anesthesia, allowing you to achieve your body-sculpting goals without the risks associated with invasive procedures. There is little to no downtime, meaning you can return to your daily routine immediately after the session.
- Highly Customizable for Individual Needs – The treatments can be tailored to accommodate various body shapes, fitness levels, and aesthetic goals. Whether you want to target stubborn fat or enhance muscle tone, TruSculpt and TruFlex provide a personalized approach for optimal results.
- Fast and Effective with Visible Improvement – Each session lasts between 15 to 45 minutes, and patients typically see noticeable improvements after just a few treatments. TruSculpt eliminates fat gradually as the body naturally processes and expels destroyed fat cells, while TruFlex strengthens and tones muscles in multiple areas.
- Comfortable and Well-Tolerated – TruSculpt delivers a warming sensation similar to a hot stone massage, creating a relaxing experience while effectively reducing fat. TruFlex stimulates muscle contractions through gentle electrical pulses, replicating the intensity of a workout while keeping the treatment experience manageable and comfortable.
- Long-Lasting and Sustainable Results – TruSculpt permanently eliminates treated fat cells, ensuring they do not regenerate in the same area. TruFlex enhances muscle definition and strength, providing lasting improvements that can be maintained with a balanced lifestyle. These non-invasive solutions help refine and sculpt your physique without extensive recovery periods.
Treatment Duration & Expected Results
- TruSculpt: A single session takes about 45 minutes, with up to 24% fat reduction in the treated area. Results appear gradually over weeks as the body eliminates fat cells.
- TruFlex: Each session lasts 15 minutes, with visible muscle definition after 4-6 treatments.
Aftercare & Recovery for TruSculpt & TruFlex
One of the biggest advantages of TruSculpt and TruFlex treatments is that they require minimal to no downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately. However, following proper aftercare can help maximize results and ensure a smooth recovery.
Immediately After Treatment
- Mild redness or warmth in the treated area is normal and typically subsides within a few hours.
- Slight muscle soreness or tenderness may occur, similar to post-workout fatigue, and can last 24 to 72 hours.
- Tingling or numbness in the treated area may persist for a few hours but will gradually fade.
- Frequent urination or bowel stimulation may occur as the body processes and eliminates fat cells.
Hydration & Nutrition
- Drink plenty of water to help flush out destroyed fat cells and support muscle recovery.
- Maintain a balanced diet rich in protein and healthy fats to aid muscle growth and fat metabolism.
- Avoid excessive alcohol, caffeine, and fatty foods for at least 24 hours post-treatment to optimize results.
Physical Activity & Lifestyle
- TruSculpt: Light physical activity is encouraged, but avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours to allow your body to process the fat elimination.
- TruFlex: Since the treatment mimics an intense workout, avoid additional heavy exercise on the same day to prevent muscle fatigue.
- Regular movement and light stretching can help reduce muscle tightness and improve circulation.
Skin & Muscle Care
- For TruSculpt: Apply a gentle moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and support skin tightening effects.
- For TruFlex: If muscle soreness persists, a warm bath or light massage can help relieve tension.
- Avoid excessive sun exposure on treated areas for a few days, as the skin may be more sensitive.
Long-Term Maintenance
- TruSculpt: Fat reduction results continue to improve over several weeks as the body naturally eliminates fat cells. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle will help sustain results.
- TruFlex: Muscle definition improves with multiple sessions, and periodic maintenance treatments (every 1-2 months) can help retain strength and tone.
By following these simple aftercare steps, you can enhance your results and enjoy a sculpted, toned physique with minimal disruption to your routine.
Complementary MedSpa Treatments for TruSculpt & TruFlex
TruSculpt and TruFlex are powerful body sculpting treatments that reduce fat and enhance muscle tone, but pairing them with other medspa treatments can further refine results and maximize body contouring benefits. Here are some treatments that work well alongside TruSculpt and TruFlex:
1. Limelight IPL for Skin Tone & Pigmentation
Limelight IPL is a light-based treatment that targets sun damage, redness, and uneven pigmentation. If TruSculpt has helped eliminate fat in certain areas, Limelight IPL can enhance skin clarity and even out tone, ensuring a smooth, flawless appearance.
2. CO2 Equinox for Skin Tightening
Since TruSculpt reduces fat, some patients may experience mild skin laxity in treated areas. CO2 Equinox is a fractional laser treatment that tightens and firms the skin, improving elasticity and texture for a more sculpted look.
3. Secret RF for Collagen Boost
Secret RF combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture. This treatment can complement TruSculpt by enhancing skin firmness and reducing the appearance of cellulite.
4. Hydrating Facials for Skin Health
Since body sculpting treatments focus on fat reduction and muscle toning, hydrating facials help maintain overall skin health by boosting hydration, improving circulation, and enhancing skin glow.
5. Genesis Laser for Skin Rejuvenation
Genesis laser therapy stimulates collagen, reduces redness, and improves skin texture. If TruSculpt and TruFlex have helped sculpt your body, Genesis can refine skin tone and smooth imperfections, ensuring a polished, youthful appearance.
By combining these treatments strategically, you can enhance your results and achieve a more sculpted, toned, and radiant look.
