Despite your best efforts, certain areas of your body may remain resistant to increasing muscle definition. For many people, even regular workouts paired with a clean diet isn’t enough to build visible, lasting muscle tone where they want it most.
At AURAE MD in La Jolla, CA, we offer a more innovative, more targeted solution. Accufit™ is an advanced, non-invasive muscle stimulation treatment that activates and strengthens muscles through intelligent electrical energy, delivering results that feel like weeks of workouts in just minutes. Whether you’re recovering from injury, refining your core, or sculpting leaner lines, Accufit™ helps you build muscle faster.
What Is Accufit™?
Accufit™ is a non-invasive treatment that delivers precisely calibrated electrical impulses to targeted muscle groups. These impulses cause your muscles to contract in ways that mimic an intense workout.
The device can target up to four muscle groups simultaneously, such as the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, or arms, activating the muscles in a controlled pattern to tone, strengthen, and sculpt your body. Each session simulates a complete muscle conditioning cycle encompassing warm-up, contraction, hold, and recovery phases.
How Accufit™ Works
At Aurae MD, we use the Accufit™ system to deliver muscle stimulation that goes far beyond what’s possible in a traditional workout. Designed for precision and efficiency, Accufit™ activates specific muscle groups using a proprietary electrical sequence that mirrors the body’s natural movement patterns.
Each treatment includes a four-phase cycle—stretch, strengthen, re-educate, and recover—to engage the full range of muscle performance. These cycles are controlled by IntelliCycle™, an adaptive algorithm that adjusts in real time based on your unique muscle response. This ensures every session is not only effective, but also personalized to your anatomy and goals.
Throughout your treatment, specialized applicators send energy directly into the muscle, bypassing superficial layers to stimulate deep, complete contractions. Accufit™’s advanced system delivers up to three times the power of earlier-generation muscle devices to produce noticeable improvements in tone, strength, and definition quickly and comfortably.
Benefits of Accufit™ Muscle Stimulation
Muscle Tone and Definition
Accufit™ helps define and contour the body by strengthening the underlying muscles. It’s an excellent option for people who are already active but want to further refine their physique in specific areas.
No Downtime
Unlike surgical body contouring or recovery-heavy workouts, Accufit™ requires no downtime. You can return to work, errands, or even a gym session immediately after your appointment.
Time-Efficient
Each session lasts about 30 to 45 minutes and delivers a full range of muscle activity in one sitting. You get maximum impact with minimal disruption to your day.
Personalized Treatment
Your session is tailored to your fitness level and goals. Our team adjusts the intensity and muscle targeting based on your specific needs—whether you’re recovering from an injury, maintaining muscle mass after pregnancy, or preparing for an event.
Low Risk, High Reward
Since there are no incisions, needles, or medications involved, the risk of side effects is extremely low. Some people experience mild soreness afterward, similar to what they feel after a workout.
Accufit™ vs. Other Body Contouring Treatments
Accufit™ is an advanced solution for building and sculpting muscle, but it’s not the only body contouring treatment available. Here’s how it compares to other common options:
CoolSculpting® and Cryolipolysis Treatments
CoolSculpting is one of the most well-known body contouring treatments. It works by freezing fat cells, which your body then eliminates over time. It’s popular for reducing stubborn bulges in areas like the abdomen or flanks.
But CoolSculpting only targets fat. It doesn’t strengthen or tone the underlying muscle. You may look slimmer, but it won’t improve firmness or core strength. Accufit™ focuses on activating muscles directly, helping you build strength and definition beneath the surface. It’s ideal if you’re already close to your goal weight and want to refine your shape, not just reduce size.
Radiofrequency (RF) or Laser-Based Fat Reduction
Devices like SculpSure® or truSculpt® use heat or laser energy to break down fat. These treatments are non-invasive and can provide modest fat reduction over time, often accompanied by a warm sensation during the session.
The downside is that, like CoolSculpting, they don’t address muscle tone. Accufit™ takes it a step further by actually working your muscles, causing them to contract, build strength, and achieve a more lifted, athletic appearance. If your goal is toned arms, firmer abs, or better posture, Accufit™ is a better fit.
Emsculpt® and Similar EMS Devices
Emsculpt is another treatment that uses electrical muscle stimulation. It can help strengthen muscles and improve tone in areas like the core and glutes.
The key difference? Accufit™ is a third-generation muscle stimulation platform featuring IntelliCycle technology, which customizes your session in real-time based on how your muscles respond. It delivers three times the power, utilizes a multi-phase cycle (stretch, contract, re-educate, recover), and treats more muscle groups more efficiently in a single session. The result is a deeper, more precise treatment with greater control and comfort.
Surgical Procedures (Liposuction, Tummy Tucks)
Liposuction or abdominoplasty can offer dramatic fat reduction and skin tightening, but these are invasive surgeries with real recovery time, scarring, and risks.
Accufit™ is completely non-surgical. There are no incisions, no anesthesia, and no downtime. While it won’t remove large amounts of fat, it’s ideal for patients who are already healthy but want to improve muscle tone, body balance, or postural strength, without surgery.
What to Expect During Accufit™ Treatment
Before Your Session
Your experience begins with a detailed consultation at Aurae MD. We’ll discuss your goals, medical history, and any contraindications. If you’re a good candidate for Accufit™, we’ll map out a personalized plan that includes the number of sessions and areas of focus.
During the Session
You’ll lie comfortably while electrodes are placed on the target areas. The Accufit™ system will cycle through various waveforms that stimulate the muscles in ways that mimic a warm-up, rapid-fire contraction, and cool-down.
You’ll feel strong, involuntary muscle movements, but they are generally well-tolerated and not painful. Many patients describe the sensation as odd at first, but satisfying once they get used to it.
Aftercare
There is no special post-treatment protocol. You may experience mild muscle fatigue or soreness for a day or two, similar to how you’d feel after a tough gym session. Hydration and light movement will help ease this feeling.
How to Maintain Your Accufit™ Results
Accufit™ offers a powerful jumpstart to muscle tone and body contouring, but your results are best preserved through consistent, whole-body support. At AURAE MD, we guide patients to think of Accufit™ not as a one-time fix, but as a high-impact addition to a sustainable, health-centered lifestyle. Here’s how to protect and prolong the benefits:
Exercise Support
Accufit™ builds strength, but staying active helps maintain it. Light resistance training, Pilates, or bodyweight exercises a few times a week will keep your muscles engaged and your results lasting longer.
Maintenance Treatments
We recommend touch-up sessions every three to six months. These quick visits help preserve muscle tone, support symmetry, and adjust focus as your body evolves.
Lifestyle Habits
Fuel your body with protein-rich, whole foods. Stay hydrated, prioritize sleep, and manage stress to support muscle health and sustain long-term aesthetic outcomes.
Nutrient-Rich Diet
Eating a diet high in lean protein, healthy fats, and micronutrients supports muscle recovery and performance. Proper nutrition lays the foundation for strength, endurance, and long-lasting tone.
Hydration
Staying well-hydrated before and after treatment improves circulation and reduces post-session soreness. Water also supports cellular function and tissue integrity over time.
Quality Sleep
Deep, uninterrupted sleep promotes muscle repair, hormone regulation, and full-body recovery. Aim for seven to nine hours nightly to keep your energy and results on track.
Stress Management
Elevated stress hormones like cortisol can interfere with muscle maintenance and overall well-being. Incorporating daily relaxation through breathwork, walks, yoga or quiet time helps preserve your results from the inside out.
Candidates for Accufit™ Muscle Stimulation
Accufit™ is ideal for individuals who are already at or near their target weight but want to improve muscle strength and definition. It’s particularly effective for people who struggle with areas of softness that don’t respond well to traditional exercise. Because the treatment is non-invasive and requires no downtime, it’s an excellent option for those looking to enhance their physique with minimal disruption to their daily routine.
Candidates should be in overall good health, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and free from contraindications such as metal implants, pacemakers, or seizure disorders. As always, a consultation at AURAE MD ensures we tailor your treatment plan to your unique goals and health history.
Accufit™ is especially popular among busy professionals seeking a fast, convenient way to achieve visible improvements. It’s also a favorite among fitness enthusiasts who want to refine specific muscle groups, postpartum patients working to rebuild core strength, and individuals recovering from periods of inactivity due to injury or illness. Whether you’re looking to jumpstart your progress or enhance what you’ve already built, Accufit™ offers a smart, supportive path forward.
