Some goals need more than one tool. Diet and exercise can take you far — but a stubborn lower belly or softness that won't firm up often needs both fat reduction and muscle building to truly change. truBody is Cutera's answer: two complementary technologies, paired into one plan, to do what neither does alone.
truSculpt — reduce fat. truSculpt uses monopolar radiofrequency energy to gently heat the deep fat layer until fat cells break down, and your body clears them naturally over the following weeks. It's FDA-cleared for non-invasive fat reduction of the abdomen, with an average of 24% fat reduction reported after a single session. Each cycle is hands-free and takes about 15 minutes.

truFlex — build muscle. truFlex uses Cutera's Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS) to trigger deep, involuntary contractions — replicating the crunch, squat, and twisting motions of an intense workout, more completely than you could on your own. It's FDA-cleared to strengthen, tone, and firm the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. Learn more about truFlex →
Run together, they cover what each can't: truSculpt refines the fat, truFlex strengthens the muscle underneath. That “reduce and build” combination is why truBody delivers a more complete result than a single device — and it's the reason we built the category around it.
truBody is delivered as a coordinated series rather than a one-off. A typical plan combines truSculpt fat-reduction cycles with a short series of truFlex sessions, mapped to your goals at your consultation. Both treatments are non-surgical with no downtime — most people describe truSculpt as a deep, warm massage and truFlex as an intense workout, with mild soreness afterward that fades like it would after training. You return to your day the same day. Fat-reduction results build gradually over roughly 6–12 weeks as your body clears the treated cells; muscle definition develops over your session series.
Because Vue is a surgeon-led practice, every truBody plan starts with a straightforward assessment from Dr. Swenson's team. truBody is a body-contouring plan for people near their goal weight who want to refine specific areas — it is not a weight-loss program, and we'll tell you honestly if your goals would be better served another way, including where a surgical option might make more sense.
truBody is built as a package and priced at your consultation, matched to your goals. Ready to reduce fat and build muscle in one plan? Book a consultation and we'll map it to your goals.
What's the difference between truSculpt, truFlex, and truBody?
truSculpt reduces fat with radiofrequency energy. truFlex builds and firms muscle with electrical stimulation. truBody is the two paired into one coordinated plan — reduce fat and build muscle.
Is truBody a weight-loss treatment?
No. truBody is a body-contouring plan that refines specific areas and builds muscle tone. It works best for people at or near their goal weight, not as a substitute for weight loss.
How many sessions will I need, and how long do they take?
It varies by your goals and is finalized at your consultation. truSculpt cycles run about 15 minutes and hands-free; truFlex is delivered as a short series. Your plan coordinates both.
Does it hurt? Is there downtime?
Neither treatment is surgical and there's no downtime. Most people find truSculpt feels like a deep, warm massage and truFlex feels like an intense workout, with mild post-treatment soreness that resolves on its own. You can return to normal activity the same day.
When will I see results?
Fat-reduction results appear gradually over roughly 6–12 weeks as your body clears the treated fat cells. Muscle tone develops across your truFlex session series.
Am I a good candidate?
truBody suits people near their goal weight who want to reduce stubborn fat and build tone in areas like the abdomen. The best way to know is a consultation with Dr. Swenson's team, who'll give you an honest assessment.
