  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Five month update: it did nothing!

It’s been five months since my treatment and the results are completely unnoticable. My arms are exactly the same as before even though at my 12-week follow up the practitioner tried to say there was. I really wouldn’t bother with this I feel like it’s a total waste of money - maybe it’s because I had to ask them to turn it down that it’s not as effective, but one of the blisters has turned into a permanent scar (pictured) so dread to think what damage keeping it up on high would have done.

Had the Procedure Today, It Hurt!

I had Trusculpt ID on my upper arms today, four paddles (two on each arm). I was told the treatment is relatively painless and can even be like a hot stone massage. But during the session the pain very quickly got close to unbearable. At about 8 minutes in, I had to get the practitioner to turn the machine down because it was too much. I get Velashape on my legs and the pain from Trusculpt ID completely outweighs that.

After the treatment, I also noticed two little welts on my arms. They seem to have gotten smaller throughout the day, but I think they might be burn blisters. Having experienced this, I did some digging on Reddit and Real Self and it seems some other people have experienced this too.

I can't say anything to the results yet, I will post updates closer to the 12-week mark, but I won't be getting it again because of the pain (which means I'm limited to whatever results I see after one session). This is mainly a post just to say, prepare yourself for some pain if you choose this procedure. I know everyone is different, but it's not completely painless as advertised.
