TruSculpt® ID vs. CoolSculpting®: Which Is Right for You?

A woman posing in white underwear showing the results of TruSculpt® ID Body contouring treatments like TruSculpt® ID and CoolSculpting® have become the go-to solution for individuals who want to lose stubborn fat without surgery.

At AesthetiSpa Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center, led by Dr. Christy L. Cone, a Diplomat of the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine, we often get questions about body sculpting services and how to choose the right option for clients’ individual needs.

Discover some of the key differences between TruSculpt ID and CoolSculpting below.

What Is TruSculpt ID?

TruSculpt ID uses advanced radiofrequency (RF) energy to target and eliminate fat cells under the skin. It also tightens the skin at the same time.

This treatment is quick – usually just 15-30 minutes per area – and is known for being comfortable.

TruSculpt ID also adapts to various body shapes. This makes it ideal for those seeking personalized fat reduction and contouring with minimal to no downtime.

What Is CoolSculpting?

CoolSculpting works by freezing fat cells using cryolipolysis. The extreme cold breaks down fat cells. The body then naturally eliminates them over time. 

CoolSculpting sessions generally last around 35-60 minutes per area. They can also involve mild discomfort, such as numbness or pinching sensations, during the session.

Differences Between TruSculpt ID and CoolSculpting

Here are some of the most important distinctions to keep in mind when choosing between these two services:

  • Technology: TruSculpt ID uses heat, while CoolSculpting uses cold temperatures.
  • Treatment Time: TruSculpt ID sessions are faster – around 15-30 minutes per area.
  • Comfort: TruSculpt ID is often described as feeling like a warm massage. CoolSculpting may cause temporary discomfort due to the freezing process.
  • Customization: TruSculpt ID can treat various body types and areas with more flexibility.

Both options offer effective fat reduction. However, the best choice depends on your goals, body type, and preferences. If you’re looking for a faster, more comfortable experience with added skin-tightening benefits, we recommend TruSculpt ID.
