truSculpt iD is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment that permanently reduces stubborn fat — under the chin, abdomen, flanks, and more — while tightening the skin above it. No surgery, no needles, no downtime. Performed personally by Dr. Anna Yatskar, MD.
Most fat-reduction devices leave loose skin behind. truSculpt iD’s monopolar radiofrequency does two things at once — it heats subcutaneous fat to the point of permanent cell death, and that same deep heat tightens the dermis above it. You don’t trade fat for sagging.
And every treatment is performed personally by Dr. Anna Yatskar, MD — a physician who understands the anatomy beneath the applicator, not a technician following a template.
Explore Body Contouring →RF heat destroys fat cells, which your body clears naturally over 6–12 weeks. Those cells are gone for good.
The same radiofrequency stimulates collagen in the overlying skin — firming as it slims, so you’re not left loose.
A warm, tolerable sensation for about 15 minutes per area. No needles, no anesthesia, no recovery.
The truSculpt iD handpiece delivers monopolar radiofrequency that heats subcutaneous fat to a therapeutic temperature of around 45°C. At that temperature, fat cells undergo apoptosis — controlled cell death.
Over the following weeks, your lymphatic system clears the destroyed fat cells, and the area visibly slims. Meanwhile, the same deep heat triggers collagen production in the skin above, so the result is a tighter, smoother contour — not a deflated one.
Unlike fat-freezing (cryolipolysis), truSculpt iD uses radiofrequency heat — which also tightens skin and avoids the rare paradoxical fat enlargement occasionally associated with cooling-based devices. Dr. Anna will advise which approach suits your anatomy.
Dr. Anna evaluates your areas, confirms you’re a candidate, and maps the applicator placement for your anatomy.
The hands-free applicator is secured to the treatment area. Up to two areas can be treated at once.
Radiofrequency warms the fat layer to the therapeutic range. Most patients describe it as a deep, comfortable warmth.
Heated fat cells die and are processed out by your body naturally over the following weeks.
The treated area is visibly slimmer and firmer, with full results emerging around the 12-week mark.
Two Cutera technologies with two different jobs — one removes fat, one builds muscle. They’re designed to work together as the truBody program.
Best for: stubborn fat pockets — under the chin, abdomen, flanks, and bra line.
Best for: tone and definition — abdomen, glutes, arms, and thighs. See truSculpt flex →
truSculpt iD is priced by treatment area, because the number of applicator cycles depends on the size of the area being treated. Every treatment is performed by Dr. Anna personally.
The submental (under-chin) fat pad is the most popular single-area starting point. Larger areas such as the abdomen or flanks use more cycles and are quoted at your consultation.
One applicator cycle for the under-chin fat pad. The most popular starting point.
Priced by the number of applicator cycles your area requires. Quoted at consultation.

Yes. The fat cells destroyed by truSculpt iD are cleared by your body and do not come back. That said, the fat cells that remain in the area can still enlarge if you gain significant weight — so results are best maintained at a stable weight.
Most patients describe truSculpt iD as a deep, comfortable warmth — not painful. No numbing or anesthesia is needed, and you can return to your day immediately afterward.
It depends on the area and your goals. The submental area often responds well to one or two sessions; larger areas may benefit from more. Results develop gradually over about 12 weeks as your body clears the treated fat. Dr. Anna gives you a realistic plan at consultation.
No — and Dr. Anna is honest about this. truSculpt iD is for reducing stubborn, localized fat pockets in patients who are already at or near their goal weight. It is body contouring, not a substitute for weight loss.
truSculpt iD uses radiofrequency heat rather than cold. Because it heats the tissue, it also tightens the skin over the treated area, and it avoids the rare paradoxical fat enlargement occasionally linked to cooling-based devices. Dr. Anna will tell you honestly which approach fits your anatomy and goals.
Dr. Anna will assess your areas honestly — and tell you whether truSculpt iD, truSculpt flex, the truBody combination, or another approach is right for you. Full pricing before you commit to anything.
