Body contouring isn’t always just about reducing stubborn fat. Muscle tone and definition also play an important role in the shape and appearance of the body. truBody® combines truSculpt® iD fat reduction with truFlex® muscle sculpting to address both in a customized, non-surgical treatment plan.
At Dr. Kaga’s NJ practice, truBody treatments are tailored to your body, goals, and the areas you want to improve, helping create greater definition without surgery or significant downtime.
What Is truBody®?
truBody is a comprehensive body sculpting approach from Cutera that combines two complementary technologies:
- truSculpt® iD targets areas of unwanted, stubborn fat using radiofrequency energy.
- truFlex® uses electrical muscle stimulation to strengthen, firm, and tone targeted muscle groups.
By addressing both fat and muscle, truBody provides a more comprehensive approach to body contouring than treatments designed to address either concern alone.
How Does truBody® Body Sculpting Work?
Your truBody treatment plan combines truSculpt iD and truFlex according to your individual needs.
truSculpt® iD for Fat Reduction
truSculpt iD delivers controlled radiofrequency energy to targeted areas of stubborn fat. The energy heats the fat layer, damaging targeted fat cells so they can gradually be cleared by the body.
Because treatment is non-invasive, there are no incisions or surgical recovery.
truFlex® for Muscle Toning
truFlex focuses on the other side of body contouring: muscle.
Using Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS) technology, truFlex creates controlled muscle contractions to exercise and strengthen targeted muscle groups. Treatment can be customized according to your current fitness level, comfort, and muscle-toning goals.
Together, the two technologies allow truBody to address body fat and underlying muscle definition within the same overall treatment plan.
What Areas Can truBody® Treat?
truBody can be customized for different areas of the body depending on whether unwanted fat, muscle definition, or both are the primary concern. Common treatment areas may include the:
- Abdomen
- Flanks
- Thighs
- Buttocks
- Other appropriate areas of localized fat or muscle
During your consultation, Dr. Kaga’s team will evaluate the areas you’d like to improve and determine which components of truBody are appropriate for your goals.

Why Choose truBody®?
The primary advantage of truBody is its ability to approach body contouring from more than one direction.
Benefits include:
- Non-surgical fat reduction
- Muscle toning and strengthening
- Customizable treatment plans
- No incisions or anesthesia
- Little to no downtime
- Treatment of multiple body areas
- Gradual, natural-looking contour improvement
truBody is designed for body contouring, not weight loss. It is best suited for patients who are near a stable weight and want to improve specific areas that haven’t responded as much as they’d like to diet and exercise.
What Can I Expect During truBody® Treatment?
Your experience depends on which part of the truBody treatment you’re receiving.
During truSculpt iD, applicators are positioned over the targeted area and deliver controlled RF energy. Patients typically experience a warming sensation as the tissue reaches the desired treatment temperature.
During truFlex, applicators are placed over targeted muscle groups. The intensity is gradually adjusted to your comfort level as the device creates repeated muscle contractions. The sensation is similar to an intense workout, but treatment remains non-invasive.
Session length depends on the areas being treated and your customized treatment plan.
How Should I Prepare for Treatment?
Preparation is generally straightforward. You’ll receive specific instructions based on whether you’re receiving truSculpt iD, truFlex, or both. You may be asked to shave certain treatment areas beforehand.
Please inform Dr. Kaga’s team of any implanted metal or electronic devices before treatment, as these may affect whether RF or muscle stimulation treatment can be safely performed.
How Many truBody® Treatments Will I Need?
Because truBody combines two different technologies, the recommended number of treatments can vary. truSculpt iD may require fewer sessions for a targeted area, while truFlex is generally performed as a series to progressively improve muscle tone and conditioning.
Your treatment plan will be based on your body composition, treatment areas, starting muscle tone, and desired outcome rather than using the same protocol for every patient.
When Will I See truBody® Results?
Results from truBody develop progressively. Following truSculpt iD, the body gradually processes targeted fat cells over the following weeks, with changes becoming more noticeable over time. With truFlex, improvements in muscle tone and definition develop throughout the treatment series and may continue as muscles adapt to the stimulation.
Maintaining a stable weight, balanced diet, and regular physical activity can help support your body contouring results.
Is truBody® Right for Me?
truBody may be a good option if you’re already relatively close to your desired weight but have areas of stubborn fat, limited muscle definition, or both that you’d like to improve. It’s not intended as a substitute for weight loss, and not every body contouring concern requires both technologies.
During your consultation, Dr. Kaga’s team can determine whether you would benefit from the complete truBody approach or whether truSculpt iD or truFlex alone better matches your goals.
