One of the newer ways to get rid of fat is with the truSculpt 3D device, which relies on monopolar radio-frequency technology to heat the subcutaneous layer of fat for up to a 24 percent reduction in fat in just one treatment (according to the company). With three key targets in mind—dimension, depth and definition—this fat fighter can be totally customized to sculpt pretty much any area on the body regardless of how large or small it is.

Said to be downtime-free and resulting in only some slight redness after a single 60-minute session, truSculpt 3D is thought to be an, “Important contributor to the planned revenue growth,” says James Reinstein, president and CEO of Cutera, the parent company that makes the device. “We are pleased with the progress we have made with our truSculpt platform and are excited about our truSculpt 3D launch, as well as the future enhancements we plan to integrate into our truSculpt platform in the second half of the year.”

Expect to see the truSculpt 3D body sculpting system rolling out at doctors' offices at the end of the year.
