How Does EMSCULPT Work?
EMSCULPT uses high-intensity electromagnetic energy to trigger supramaximal muscle contractions far beyond what you can achieve through exercise. This forces your muscles to adapt and grow while eliminating stubborn fat cells.
- It is a noninvasive procedure that strengthens, firms, and tones muscles in the abdomen, buttocks, legs, arms, etc., without surgery or downtime.
- It works by delivering intense, focused electromagnetic energy to deep muscle tissues. This causes supramaximal muscle contractions that are much stronger than the muscles can achieve through voluntary contractions during exercise.
- These muscle contractions effectively cause muscle growth and fat loss in the treated area. Studies show significant fat reduction and muscle building following a series of EMSCULPT treatments.
- For best results, it requires multiple sessions (usually 4-6 sessions spaced several days apart). Effects continue for months after the procedures as the muscle-building and fat-burning processes continue over time.
- It’s cleared by the FDA for strengthening, firming and toning muscles as well as for improvement in muscle definition and girth reduction.
The EMSCULPT Treatment
EMSCULPT uses an advanced applicator positioned directly onto the treated target area, such as the abdominals, buttocks, or arms. This applicator delivers focused electromagnetic energy at a very high intensity, inducing supramaximal muscle contractions with each pulse.
Each pulse forcefully contracts your muscles beyond what you could ever voluntarily achieve, even with the most intense exercise. Your muscles are essentially being taken to the gym for you – but at three times the intensity!
These strong muscle contractions occur about 20,000 times over a 30-minute treatment session. Patients often describe the contractions as an intense workout sensation being performed on the muscle. The contractions are comfortable and not painful, thanks to the built-in cooling mechanisms in the applicator.
After the session, patients can immediately resume regular activity. Some mild muscle soreness is often felt for a couple of days afterward, akin to having completed an intense workout. No downtime, wounds, medications or recovery is required.
These supramaximal contractions transform and strengthen your muscle throughout the entire EMSCULPT treatment plan (typically four sessions 2-3 days apart). They also begin eliminating and liquefying excess fat cells and cellulite via lipolysis.
Results continue to improve in the months following the completion of the sessions!
That’s the groundbreaking science behind the dramatic muscle-building and fat-loss results EMSCULPT delivers. And you don’t need to lift a single weight yourself – we do all that tiring work for your body!
