If you want that amazing beach body, you need a secret weapon like EmSculpt, the first FDA-cleared aesthetic device to build muscle and sculpt your abdomen, buttocks, arms, calves, and thighs.
Through high-intensity electromagnetic therapy, the EmSculpt procedure can help you firm and tone your muscles, resulting in a sculpted look. A tremendous non-surgical alternative to the Brazilian butt lift.
We recommend EmSculpt if you are near or at your weight loss goal. If you have more weight to lose, our team can discuss whether EmSculpt is a good fit for you.
What is EmSculpt?
EmSculpt is an FDA-approved muscle-toning device that builds muscle and burns fat without lifting heavy weights. The FDA approved EmSculpt for use on five areas where stubborn fat hides your muscles: abs, calves, thighs, butt, and arms. EmSculpt shapes those hard-to-reach areas and gives you toned areas, six-pack abs, and a lifted butt.
EmSculpt uses the latest technology in muscle toning to improve your figure. The device works by sending high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy – or HIFEM – pulses into the treatment area. These pulses cause the muscles to contract, as if you were lifting weights. You will experience more muscle contractions and activate more muscle fibers than during a weight-lifting session.
How Does EmSculpt work?
EmSculpt is based on high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy. A single EmSculpt session feels like thousands of powerful muscle contractions, which are extremely important in improving the tone and strength of your muscles.
These powerful induced muscle contractions are not achievable through voluntary contractions. The muscle tissue is forced to adapt to such extreme conditions. It responds with a deep remodeling of its inner structure that results in muscle building and sculpting your body.
What is an EmSculpt treatment like?
When you arrive for your treatment, our team will direct you to a private treatment room where the Medical Assistant will secure the EmSculpt device to the treatment area.
Each treatment session lasts between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area you wish to have treated. The EmSculpt machine will contract your muscles approximately 20,000 times per session – the equivalent of 20,000 crunches. This constant stimulation forces your muscles to work, which burns fat and builds muscle.
During your first treatment, we will start you out on the lowest intensity. As you adjust to the device, we will increase the intensity. Some patients can reach the maximum intensity level during their first treatment. Our team will check on you throughout the session to make sure you are comfortable.
Since there is no downtime after an EmSculpt treatment, you’ll be able to drive home or resume work immediately. Before you leave the MedSpa, we’ll book you for your next session. A typical treatment plan consists of four sessions over two weeks. If you would like to target multiple areas, we will set you up for more treatments.
What kind of results can I expect from the EmSculpt treatment?
Some patients notice a difference in their muscle tone immediately after the session. After four weeks, you can expect to see full results. Studies on the effectiveness of EmSculpt found that after a treatment plan, patients experienced a 15 to 20 percent growth in muscles at the target area. Patients also may experience up to 19 percent fat reduction in the target area.
One study highlighted the effectiveness of EmSculpt in improving the appearance of the buttocks. After four treatments, all patients in the study reported more lifted and toned buttocks. One month after treatment, the study participants reported increased satisfaction with their appearance.
Another study on the use of EmSculpt to improve the abdominal area had great results. After the treatment regimen, patients saw a smaller waistline. EmSculpt study participants felt more confident and more motivated to continue to work on their muscle tone through exercise. This procedure is a great way to target stubborn areas like love handles and triceps. Patients notice improved confidence and satisfaction with their appearance.
People who see the best results have around an inch of fat over the treatment area. For the best results, you should plan on continuing your exercise routine to continue building on the EmSculpt treatment. If you maintain your weight and exercise routine, you can expect your EmSculpt results to last around six months. Weight gain and a sedentary lifestyle can stop or reverse your muscle tone.
Who is a good candidate for the EmSculpt procedure?
You are a great candidate for EmSculpt if you already practice healthy habits like eating healthy foods and exercising regularly. You should be at or near a healthy BMI. Our patients choose EmSculpt to reduce those stubborn areas. Some people select EmSculpt when they’ve hit a plateau in their fitness routine.
EmSculpt is an excellent treatment for diastasis recti, or separation of abdominal muscles, which can occur after pregnancy and weight loss. If you have a pacemaker or other implanted medical device, you may not be a good candidate for this procedure.
