Emsculpt is a non-invasive, FDA-approved body reshaping procedure that builds muscle and burns fat. It releases pulses of High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy (HIFEM) into muscle tissue, creating supra-maximal contractions in the muscle by activating more muscle fibers than would exercise alone.
This non-surgical treatment tightens, tones and strengthens the large muscle groups of the abdomen and buttocks as well as small areas of the body such as the arms, thighs and legs. The result is increased muscle definition and reduced girth.
. A 30-minute Emsculpt session produces around 20,000 muscle contractions (similar to crunches you'd do at the gym.)
. Repeated relentless contractions of stressed muscles provide cellular changes that lead to rapid muscle growth.
. To provide the energy for so many muscle contractions, neighboring fat cells are broken down by a pathway called lipolysis.
. Damaged fat cells release their content in the form of fatty acids and then they die. They are eliminated by the body's lymphatic system through a natural process some time later.
Some studies show that muscle mass increases by about 16 % while fat decreases by 19% after 4 sessions.
People who are relatively fit may see some improvement a few days after their first session.
After the 4 recommended treatment sessions all good candidates may feel strong and see more muscle tone and fat reduction in the treated areas. The results are more visible after 3 months.
