ABOUT THE TREATMENT

What is TruSculpt Flex?

TruSculpt Flex is a medical device used for muscle toning. It employs a proprietary electrical muscle stimulation technique to replicate intensified crunch, squat, and twisting actions through targeted, direct stimulation of muscles. This technology allows for the treatment of multiple body areas simultaneously.

Key Benefits of truSculpt Flex at Dermedica:

  • Targets specific muscle groups for tailored treatment.
  • Procedure is non-invasive and requires no anaesthesia.
  • Adjustable intensity levels to suit individual parameters.
  • Utilises Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS) technology.

What to Expect

Step 1

Consultation

An in-person assessment with Dr. Teh or her team to discuss your goals, assess your suitability, and explain the treatment in full, including risks and alternatives.

Step 2

Treatment Plan

If suitable, a personalised plan is created — including target muscle groups, expected sessions, and realistic outcomes tailored to your goals.

Step 3

The Session

Applicators are placed on the chosen muscle areas. Controlled electrical pulses stimulate contractions for ~45 minutes. Patients often describe the sensation as strong but tolerable, similar to an intensive workout.

Step 4

The Review

Dr. Teh’s team will follow up to review your progress over time and discuss whether further sessions may be appropriate for your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • truSculpt Flex is a non-invasive muscle-toning treatment that uses Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS) to deliver controlled electrical pulses to targeted muscle groups, prompting them to contract.
  • These contractions are designed to replicate the effect of intensified exercise movements to help improve muscle tone and definition.
  • It can treat multiple areas at once. It is intended to build and tone muscle it is not a weight-loss or fat-reduction treatment.
  • truSculpt Flex generally suits people seeking to improve muscle tone and definition (typically with a BMI under 30), rather than those seeking weight loss or fat reduction.
  • It is not suitable for everyone.
  • Suitability can only be determined through an individual assessment of your goals, medical history and the areas you’d like treated with Dr Joanna Teh.
  • truSculpt Flex isn’t appropriate for everyone. Factors such as pregnancy, a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, metal implants in the treatment area, epilepsy, or certain medical conditions may mean the treatment is not suitable for you.
  • This is exactly why a consultation comes first Dr Teh reviews your medical history, discusses your goals and any risks, and will tell you honestly if it isn’t the right option.
  • truSculpt Flex is commonly used on the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, arms and calves to help improve muscle tone and definition.
  • Whether a particular area is suitable for you is determined at your consultation.
  • They do different things. truSculpt Flex targets muscle to build tone and definition, while truSculpt iD and Fat Freezing reduce stubborn pockets of fat (truSculpt iD uses radiofrequency heat; Fat Freezing uses cooling).
  • Because they address muscle and fat separately, some people choose to combine Flex with a fat-reduction treatment.
  • Dr Joanna Teh can explain which option, or combination, suits your goals at your consultation.
  • Most people feel a pulling or contracting sensation in the targeted muscles as the device works.
  • The intensity is gradually increased based on your feedback and can be adjusted throughout to keep you comfortable.
  • Individual experiences vary.
  • A standard session is approximately 45 minutes.
  • The exact time depends on how many areas you’re treating, which is mapped out at your consultation.
  • This varies from person to person depending on your starting point and goals.
  • A course of sessions is usually recommended, and Dr Joanna Teh will outline a suggested plan after assessing you at your consultation.
  • Because truSculpt Flex works by stimulating muscle, results develop gradually over a course of sessions rather than immediately, and they vary between individuals.
  • As with muscle tone built through exercise, results are not permanent on their own periodic maintenance sessions, along with a healthy, active lifestyle, help sustain your tone over time.
  • Without maintenance, muscle tone gradually reduces, as it would if you stopped training.
  • truSculpt Flex is non-invasive and most people return to their usual activities straight afterward.
  • Some people experience muscle soreness similar to that following an intensive workout, which usually settles on its own.
  • Your specific aftercare is explained at your consultation.
  • No. truSculpt Flex is a muscle-toning treatment it is not a weight-loss or fat-reduction treatment.
  • It’s intended to improve muscle tone and definition, and tends to suit people who are already close to their goal weight.
  • Pricing depends on how many areas you’re treating and the plan recommended for you, so we confirm it at your consultation rather than quoting a one-size-fits-all figure.
  • The consultation is also where Dr Teh assesses whether the treatment is suitable for you and maps out a plan tailored to your goals.
  • Book a consultation to get pricing specific to you.
  • At Dermedica, treatment is carried out under the guidance of Dr Joanna Teh (General and Specialist Registration – General Practice, AHPRA reg. MED0001531429) and her team of experienced nurses and dermal therapists, with a focus on informed consent and realistic expectations.
