How Long Do EmSculpt Results Last?

Are you ready to take your body to the next level? Would you like to build on the results you’ve achieved through diet and exercise and further sculpt and define your physique? EmSculpt, a breakthrough body-shaping treatment offered by Premiere Aesthetics in Fort Myers, FL, can simultaneously build muscle and burn fat, giving you long-lasting results you can be proud of.

How Long Do EmSculpt Results Last?

Most patients undergo four treatments and start to see positive results two to four weeks after their final session. This treatment system increases muscle mass in the targeted area by an average of 16 percent, along with a fat reduction that averages 19 percent. The results this treatment system offers aren’t permanent, but with a little attention, patients can easily maintain their results for the long haul.

To stay cut and defined, muscles need to stay in action. Many of our patients have been able to maintain their results for months and even years by keeping up a pattern of regular exercise and healthy eating. And once they’ve seen the great results this treatment system offers, they’re often motivated to stay active. Some patients also find that maintenance treatments every several months are a great way of keeping up their results.

How Can This Treatment Improve My Body?

Everyone knows that working out and watching what you eat are the keys to achieving better health and a better-looking body. But those are easier said than done. Not everyone can carve an hour or two out of the day to work out, and dietary temptations are everywhere. And that’s not all, some of us have pockets of fat and parts of the body that just won’t shape up, no matter how hard we diet and exercise.

That’s where this treatment comes in. It picks up where diet and exercise have left off and gets your body the rest of the way there. It uses high intensity focused electromagnetic energy to trigger deep contractions in your muscles. The contractions are similar to the ones your muscles experience during a workout, only they’re much stronger and more frequent. The contractions you experience during a 30-minute treatment are the equivalent of doing 20,000 squats, crunches, or lunges!

Which Parts of the Body Does This Treatment Work On?

Since this treatment both builds muscle and gets rid of fat, it’s most often used on muscle-rich parts of the body like the abdomen, flanks, buttocks, and thighs. Some patients also use it to shape their arms and calves.

Will This Treatment Help Me Lose Weight?

This treatment won’t help you lose a significant amount of weight. It’s really more of a body sculpting treatment. The best patients are in pretty good shape and no more than 20 pounds overweight. They just need a little help toning up. This treatment gets rid of just enough extra fat to let those newly defined muscles shine through.

What Happens During Treatment?

Although this treatment can dramatically improve the look of your body, the appointments themselves are easy. This is a non-invasive treatment, so you won’t have to worry about needles, incisions, or anesthesia. All you need to do is put on comfortable clothing and come to our office. At the start of your appointment, we’ll gently strap the device to the part of the body you want to target.

As treatment progresses, many patients experience a vibrating sensation as their muscles contract, but it won’t be painful or uncomfortable. You’ll be comfortably reclined during your appointment and can spend the time reading and relaxing. You won’t even break a sweat!

Should I Set Aside Time Afterward To Recover?

This treatment requires nothing in the way of preparation or recovery. You’ll be able to jump right back into your regular schedule afterward. You will notice that your muscles will be sore and fatigued, much as they would be after a vigorous workout, but that won’t keep you from returning to work or whatever else you have planned.

What Advantages Are Associated With This Body-Shaping Treatment?

It Builds Muscle

There are other body sculpting treatments out there, but most of them focus exclusively on getting rid of unwanted fat. This treatment is unique in that it also builds muscle. That makes it a great option for patients who not only want to slim down but want to build muscular definition as well. Have you always wanted six-pack abs? This treatment can help you develop them!

Adding muscle can give you a fit look, but it can also give your workouts a boost, making it easier to lift a little more at the gym or achieve that difficult yoga pose. Added muscle can help in other ways as well, including improved posture and less back pain.

It’ll Be Easier To Stay in Shape

Patients who have undergone these treatments sometimes have an easier time staying in shape, in part because the results can be highly motivating. But the added muscle gained from these treatments can also improve a patient’s metabolism, which helps their bodies burn calories more efficiently going forward.

It Tackles Visceral Fat

EmSculpt can target visceral fat, which is something not every sculpting treatment can do. Visceral fat, also know as belly fat, is the fat that develops around internal organs in the abdominal cavity. It’s a particularly harmful type of fat because it has been linked to a higher risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other health conditions.

Some other body sculpting treatments, such as CoolSculpting, target superficial fat, which is the less harmful fat just beneath the skin but above the muscle.

It Can Help Prevent Injury

In addition to the aesthetic benefits of this treatment, the stronger muscles this treatment helps patients achieve can help prevent injuries. This treatment is even sometimes used in physical therapy to help patients who are recovering from an injury that has weakened muscles.

It’s Convenient

Thanks to advances in health technology, patients looking to shape up their bodies now have lots of options. EmSculpt is one of the easier and more convenient ones. This non-invasive treatment requires no preparation and no recovery period, and the 30-minute sessions can be fit into the busiest of schedules. If you’re looking for a no-hassle way of quickly shaping up your body, this treatment is a terrific option.

You Can Hone In on Problem Spots

When you’re dieting and exercising, you don’t have a lot of control over where the weight comes off. One of the great things about this treatment is that it gives you more control over how and where your body is shaping up. It allows you to target certain parts of your body for toning and fat reduction while leaving the curves you love elsewhere untouched.

You’ll Look and Feel Fantastic

Despite a commitment to a healthy lifestyle, many of us still have a problem area or two that just won’t shape up. Maybe it’s a little extra fullness in the abdominal area or a derriere that has started to sag. This treatment gives you the help you need to finally achieve the physique you’ve been working toward. You’ll look great, and you’ll feel more self-confident.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

If you’re interested in finding out if you’re a good candidate for this treatment, the first step is to schedule an initial consultation with our practice. We’ll use this time to evaluate your areas of concern, talk with you about what you’re hoping to achieve, and determine if this treatment is the right one for you. Just about anyone is a candidate as long as they’re not pregnant and don’t have metal implants in the treatment area.

Ideal candidates are also already close to their goal weight and can commit to the healthy lifestyle needed to preserve their results. Some use this treatment as a way of kickstarting efforts to live a healthier and more active life.

EmSculpt Q&A

Does It Really Work?

We know this treatment system sounds almost too good to be true, but it really does work. The treatments themselves are easy, and patients enjoy noticeable results. If you’re looking to tune up your body and achieve a more muscular definition, this treatment system is for you.

Can It Be Combined With Other Services?

Yes. Many of our patients have multiple cosmetic issues they’re hoping to tackle, and we can design a custom treatment plan for you that fully addresses your concerns. Dermal fillers and wrinkle relaxers are two other popular treatments we offer that patients frequently opt to combine with EmSculpt. Ultherapy, a non-surgical lifting treatment for the face and neck, is also commonly combined with these treatments.

Will It Tighten My Skin?

EmSculpt focuses on building muscle and whittling down fat deposits, but it is not considered a skin tightening treatment.

Can This Treatment Tackle Love Handles?

Love handles are one of the more frustrating cosmetic challenges patients grapple with, and fortunately, this treatment can address them. In both men and women, the thighs and hips tend to accumulate fat easily, but this part of the body is also one of the last places fat comes off of when you’re dieting and exercising. EmSculpt is a popular and effective way of shaping up this troublesome area.

What Can This Do for My Butt?

In recent years, having a curvy and toned butt has become one of the hot cosmetic trends, in part because of the voluptuous figures sported by some red carpet celebrities. A surgical butt lift can require weeks of downtime, but Emsculpt Tampa offers an easier alternative. This treatment can be used to lift the butt and add shape and tone. It’s the easiest version of a butt lift out there, and it involves no downtime.

Will It Get Rid of Cellulite?

While this treatment gets rid of unwanted fat, which is a contributor to cellulite, it is not something we market as a cellulite treatment.

Can Men Take Advantage of This Treatment?

Yes. We understand that patients of both genders are looking for help in meeting their cosmetic goals, and we have successfully used this body sculpting treatment on both men and women.
