Exilis Elite: fat reduction & skin tightening

Exilis Elite combines radiofrequency energy and ultrasound to heat deep tissue, which helps break down fat cells while stimulating collagen production for firmer skin. It's a good starting point if you're dealing with a stubborn fat pocket, skin laxity, or both.

truSculpt Flex: muscle building & toning

truSculpt Flex uses targeted muscle stimulation to trigger deep, sustained contractions — similar to what your body produces during an intense workout — to build and tone muscle. It's not a fat-reduction treatment; it's aimed at definition and tone.

Which one should you choose?

If your main concern is a fat pocket that doesn't respond to diet and exercise, start with Exilis Elite. If you want more visible muscle tone and definition in an area you're already working on at the gym, truSculpt Flex is the better fit.

Combining both

Because they address different things, combining both across a treatment series is common — fat reduction and skin tightening from Exilis Elite, paired with muscle toning from truSculpt Flex.

Body Contouring: Exilis Elite vs. truSculpt Flex

Fat reduction and muscle toning are two different problems, which is exactly why we offer two different technologies rather than one catch-all "body contouring" treatment.
