Emsculpt®

What is Emsculpt®?

Emsculpt is the only FDA-cleared noninvasive procedure for whole-core body sculpting. With Emsculpt, you can achieve better muscle tone in various areas of your body, including your:

• Arms
• Calves
• Thighs
• Abdomen
• Buttocks

Unlike other body contouring treatments, Emsculpt works in two ways at once. The procedure eliminates fat cells while helping you build more muscle. This helps you achieve a trimmer and more toned figure without spending months or even years dieting and performing high-intensity workouts.

Body contouring treatments like Emsculpt won’t cause a significant reduction in your weight, and you should wait until you’re very close to your goal weight before taking part in the treatment. Once your treatment with Emsculpt is complete, you’ll notice a 15-20% increase in muscle mass in your targeted areas. 

How does Emsculpt work?

While you’re hooked up to the Emsculpt applicators at Hale Family Practice, it emits strong electromagnetic pulses to induce involuntary muscle contractions in targeted areas. These muscle contractions are stronger than the voluntary contractions that you make while working out at the gym or performing general daily tasks. 

Each muscle contraction strengthens your muscle fibers and helps burn subdermal fat, just like long-term high-intensity workouts. With each contraction, your muscles release chemicals that aid in the breakdown of nearby fat. 

What does Emsculpt feel like?

Emsculpt treatments uniquely cause you to feel like you’re getting an intense workout while simultaneously relaxing. You don’t have to consciously move your muscles because the machine does the work for you.

You might feel some slight muscle soreness after your sessions with Emsculpt. Any soreness you experience should go away within a couple of days, just like muscle soreness associated with any workout. 

How many Emsculpt sessions will I need?

The team at Hale Family Practice evaluates your body during a consultation and assesses your treatment goals and expectations. Then, they create your treatment plan to work with your schedule.

Most people need multiple Emsculpt sessions, spaced two to three days apart, to see a difference in their body contours. A single 30-minute Emsculpt session can involve up to 20,000 muscle contractions. After about four sessions like this, you’ll start to see the physical result of your time in the office.

A more muscular figure with less fat appeals to nearly everyone, but it can be hard to improve your body on your own. To set up a consultation for Emsculpt, call Hale Family Practice or request an appointment online today.
