Pre- & Post-Care Instructions

TruSculpt® iD Body Contouring Treatment

 

🔹 PRE-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS

TruSculpt® iD is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that uses monopolar RF energy to permanently destroy fat cells.

Preparing properly will ensure the best outcome:

✅ 1 Week Before Treatment:

  • Maintain a stable weight; this treatment is not a substitute for weight loss.
  • Hydrate well—aim for at least 64 oz of water daily.
  • Avoid excessive sun exposure or tanning on the treatment area.
  • Shave the treatment area (if applicable) 24–48 hours prior.

✅ 24–48 Hours Before:

  • Avoid applying lotions, creams, oils, or self-tanners to the treatment area.
  • Eat a light meal and avoid caffeine or alcohol before your session.
  • Wear loose, comfortable clothing on the day of your appointment.

🚫 Please Inform Us If:

  • You are pregnant or nursing
  • You have a pacemaker, metal implants, or an internal defibrillator
  • You have a skin infection or open wound in the treatment area

🔹 POST-TREATMENT INSTRUCTIONS

TruSculpt® iD has no required downtime, but following post-care guidelines will enhance results and comfort.

What to Expect:

  • Treated areas may feel warm, tender, or firm for several hours to a few days.
  • You may notice mild redness or swelling immediately post-treatment.
  • Some patients report tingling, sensitivity, or nodules, which resolve on their own.

✅ Immediately After Treatment:

  • Resume normal daily activities right away.
  • Drink plenty of water for the next 72 hours to aid lymphatic drainage.
  • Gently massage the treated area 1–2 times daily if recommended by your provider.

🚫 Avoid for 24–48 Hours:

  • Excessive heat exposure (hot tubs, saunas, vigorous workouts)
  • Tight clothing or anything that could irritate the skin
  • Alcohol or heavy meals that may impede lymphatic function

Fat cells are permanently destroyed, but results are best maintained with a healthy lifestyle.

Additional treatments may be recommended based on your body goals.
