Are Semaglutides taking over the body sculpting industry?

The semaglutide craze first came to light in 2022 and had many from A-list celebrities to TikTok influencers rushing to hop on the weight loss trend. But with rapid weight loss, there is no shortage of side effects like “Ozempic butt”, a decrease of volume, fat loss in the buttocks, and loose skin on the backside.¹ Unfortunately, drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy^® can’t slim down specific areas.

Body sculpting devices like truBody^® make a great option for those who are trying to combat side effects like “Ozempic butt”. This innovative, award-winning treatment utilizes the truFlex^TM treatment to firm and gain muscle mass. In just one 15-minute session, truFlex delivers the equivalent of 20,000 squats or 54,000 crunches on the abs, to strengthen and tone multiple and specific muscle groups.^2,3

This unique muscle stimulation technology enables physicians to adjust placement, duration, pattern, and intensity tailored to patients’ goals.³ truFlex offers three treatment modes that mimic five different workouts and can target the abdomen, obliques, thighs or glutes. Patients report up to 30% increase in muscle mass after a truFlex treatment series.⁴

With more and more patients requesting semaglutides for weight loss, aesthetic practitioners are turning to their body sculpting portfolios to mitigate reported side effects like “Ozempic Butt.” See how physicians are utilizing truBody’s combination of truFlex for muscle building and truSculpt for targeted fat reduction to complement therapies like semaglutide for better patient outcomes.
