How does it work?

San Diego TruFlex at Sadrian Plastic Surgery

You work hard to feel strong in your body. But for many people, despite a consistent fitness routine, it can still be difficult to achieve the muscle tone or definition they’re aiming for. At Sadrian Plastic Surgery & Med Spa in San Diego, we offer TruFlex—a next-generation non-surgical treatment that sculpts and strengthens muscles using advanced bioelectric technology. Performed by our expert team, TruFlex targets your abs, thighs, glutes, and more with customizable energy pulses that mimic intense workouts. The result? Stronger, firmer muscles and a more defined silhouette—without surgery, downtime, or sweat.

What Is TruFlex?

TruFlex is a body-sculpting treatment that uses Cutera’s proprietary Multi-Directional Stimulation (MDS) technology to tone and strengthen targeted muscle groups. The device emits electrical pulses through applicators placed on the skin, inducing powerful contractions in ways your body can't replicate at the gym. In just 45 minutes, TruFlex can trigger up to 54,000 muscle contractions, delivering the equivalent of a comprehensive strength-training session.

TruFlex is ideal for individuals looking to:

Build core strength
Define muscle shape
Complement fitness results
Maintain muscle mass during injury or inactivity

With three distinct treatment modes (Prep, Tone, and Sculpt), TruFlex adapts to your fitness level and goals, from beginner to elite athlete.

TruFlex vs. TruSculpt vs. EMSCULPT

Not all body sculpting is created equal. While TruSculpt and EMSCULPT are often compared, only TruFlex is optimized for muscle toning rather than fat reduction.

Feature	TruFlex	TruSculpt iD	EMSCULPT
Technology	Bioelectric MDS	Monopolar RF (Fat)	HIFEM (Electromagnetic)
Focus	Muscle Toning	Fat Reduction	Muscle + Fat
Treatment Modes	3 Adaptive Modes	1 Static Mode	1 Mode
Sessions Needed	4-6	1-3	4-6
Treatable Areas	Abs, Glutes, Thighs, Arms	Abdomen, Flanks	Abdomen, Buttocks
Downtime	None	None	None

TruFlex gives you more control, more customization, and more results when your goal is visible, functional muscle strength.

What Can TruFlex Do for You?

From subtle tone to visible sculpting, TruFlex delivers consistent results without surgery.

Here are the benefits patients report most often:

Increased core strength
Improved posture and athletic performance
More definition in abs, thighs, arms, or glutes
Better muscle symmetry
Support for injury recovery or maintenance
Confidence in clothing and swimwear

Treatment Areas:

Abdomen (upper and lower)
Obliques
Glutes
Inner and outer thighs
Arms (biceps and triceps)
Calves

Because there is no downtime, patients often schedule their sessions during lunch breaks or between errands.

Am I a Candidate for TruFlex?

TruFlex is suitable for healthy adults looking to improve muscle tone and definition without surgery. It is especially ideal if you:

Maintain an active lifestyle
Are close to your ideal body weight
Struggle to see visible muscle tone despite regular workouts
Want to enhance your fitness results

Not a candidate? Patients with implanted electronic devices (e.g., pacemakers), epilepsy, recent surgeries, hernias, or certain skin conditions may need to avoid this treatment. A consultation with our team will help determine your eligibility.

Preparing for TruFlex

Before your first TruFlex session, you’ll meet with our experienced providers to discuss your goals, health history, and target areas. We'll assess your muscle condition and develop a customized treatment plan. No special diet or prep is needed, but we recommend:

Staying hydrated before and after
Wearing comfortable clothing
Avoiding heavy meals or alcohol before the session

The TruFlex Procedure

Each TruFlex session lasts about 45 minutes and is performed in-office. You’ll lie comfortably as the applicators are applied to the treatment area. During the session, you’ll feel a series of deep, rhythmic muscle contractions as the system cycles through its three phases:

Prep Mode: Gently warms muscles with twisting contractions
Tone Mode: Mimics resistance training, increasing strength and endurance
Sculpt Mode: Performs intense, fast contractions to build mass and enhance definition

Most patients describe the sensation as unusual but not painful, similar to an intense workout. No anesthesia or downtime is required.

Results, Recovery & Aftercare

If you are one of the many people who have worked out consistently but have been unable to achieve a “cut” appearance to your muscles, you are likely a candidate for this groundbreaking treatment. The benefits of a series of four to six sessions has the following benefits:

There is no downtime after TruFlex. You can return to your day immediately following treatment. Most patients experience mild soreness like post-gym muscle fatigue, which resolves within 24-72 hours.

When Will I See Results?

Initial improvements may be visible in as little as 2 weeks, but full results typically appear 6 to 8 weeks after the final session. Most patients benefit from 4 to 6 treatments spaced one week apart. Maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months help preserve and enhance results.

Aftercare Tips:

Stay well hydrated
Gently stretch post-treatment muscles
Continue regular fitness routines as advised
Avoid excessive sun exposure in the treated areas
