EMSculpt

Get trim while lying down!

Dreaming of a firm bottom, a little less flab, a flat stomach and no love handles on your hips? Minus the six-pack and overly muscly arms and legs?

With electromuscular muscle stimulation, this is no longer a pipe dream, but something you can easily achieve. Especially when used as a supplement to exercise and targeted strength training, this treatment accelerates muscle building and fat loss.

EMSculpt is suitable for anyone who wants to optimise their body shape and improve their muscle tone. Muscle definition without training.

Method

How does EMSculpt work?

EMSculpt is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that strengthens muscles and reduces fat. It uses electromagnetic energy to generate muscle contractions that are far more intense than what is possible through normal physical activity.

This process leads to increased muscle growth and simultaneous fat reduction in the treated areas. EMSculpt is the only treatment in the world that uses muscle stimulation to effectively build up patients’ abdominal and buttock muscles and reduce localised fat mass at the same time.

The device emits high‐intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy that achieves excellent results very quickly. The recommended treatment is 4 to 8  treatment sessions, ideally over a period of two months. This helps reshape the body without surgical intervention. EMSculpt is a revolution in body contouring.

More muscles!

Which areas of the body can be treated with EMSculpt?

EMSculpt can be used to treat the most common problem areas – the legs, stomach and bottom – as well as the upper arms (triceps, biceps). This device is suitable for people who want to improve their body shape without surgery or who want to increase the effect of their strength or fitness training. EMSculpt is a non-invasive treatment that tightens muscles through muscle stimulation. It requires no exercise and the effects last a very long time if you adopt a healthy diet and lifestyle.

The medical indications for EMSculpt include back problems and diastasis recti, which often occurs after pregnancy. Diastasis recti is when there is a wide, vertical gap between the muscles at the front of the abdomen. The gap may be visible. Targeted training of the abdominal muscles – including with the help of EMSculpt – can greatly improve a large diastasis recti, especially in younger women, and sometimes can even make it disappear completely.

After pregnancy, EMSculpt treatment can provide excellent support for tightening the abdominal muscles and building up the muscles in the stretched areas of the skin and body. The same applies to women during and after the menopause. Women in this phase of life often have a desire to reduce a “big belly” and get back to their previous body shape. However, with diet and traditional exercise alone, this is almost impossible. It can only be achieved by building muscle and tightening the stretched connective tissue.

  • Abdomen: strengthens the abdominal muscles and improves the shape of the core
  • Buttocks: a lifted, firmer appearance of the gluteal muscles, the non-surgical alternative to a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
  • Thighs: firms and strengthens the thigh muscles
  • Arms:tighter and more defined arm muscles – especially the biceps and triceps
  • Calves: strengthens and defines the calf muscles
  • Diastasis recti: reduces the gap in the abdominal muscles
  • Back: in some cases, EMSculpt can also be used for medical reasons to improve back pain.

Patient satisfaction

How satisfied are our patients with the results?

My patients love EMSculpt! Men and women alike find it great to be able to do with just a few treatments what you would otherwise have to spend many, many hours in the gym for.

More muscle and less fat, all in one go – with no risks and no adverse effects after a treatment cycle. What more could you want?

Innovation

How long has EMSculpt been around?

EMSculpt has been around since 2018. The device for non-invasive muscle tightening was developed by BTL Industries, an international manufacturer of high-tech medical devices for aesthetic and physiotherapeutic applications.

EMSculpt is an innovative solution for muscle building and fat reduction without surgery. Since its introduction, it has gained tremendous popularity, especially in aesthetic medicine and among those looking for non-surgical methods of body shaping and muscle definition without exercise.

We have been offering this treatment at our practice for several years.

Advantages

What are the advantages of EMSculpt compared to other muscle toning measures?

With EMSculpt, you can build muscle, tighten your skin and reduce fat without intensive training. Who doesn’t dream of achieving a tight bottom, an impressive six-pack and firm skin without going to the gym every day?

This body shaping method is also effective in reducing unwanted fat deposits and helps with the targeted definition of individual muscles such as the biceps and triceps or muscle groups such as the abdominal or gluteal muscles.

It is suitable for both women and men and can even be used as a medical aid, for example in cases of diastasis recti. In addition to the cosmetic benefits, this procedure uses electromuscular stimulation to boost the results of strength training and fitness exercises and accelerates fat loss, resulting in better muscle definition.

Risks

What are the risks and side effects?

When used properly and under professional supervision, there are no risks associated with the use of EMSculpt. You may experience some muscle soreness after the treatment. However, please note that desired muscle building effect is only achieved after several sessions. In my experience, 8 treatment sessions over a period of 2 months are ideal. To maintain the muscle building and fat loss results, a healthy lifestyle and healthy diet are essential. Follow-up treatments may be required.

EMSculpt is not suitable as a stand-alone weight loss measure. The technology is primarily aimed at building muscle. Although it can also reduce fat, this is less effective in people with higher body fat levels or those aiming for significant weight loss.

EMSculpt is also not suitable for people with implanted electronic devices such as pacemakers or with metal implants in the treatment area. It is also not suitable for pregnant women. An one-to-one consultation is highly recommended for people with pre-existing conditions or physical impairments before undergoing any treatment.

My advice

As a doctor, my recommendation for patients who want to tone up their body by accelerating muscle building and reducing fat deposits is that they start by doing regular, targeted exercise and strength training and follow a balanced, low-carb diet.

EMSculpt works best and acheives the most impressive results when it has a good baseline of existing muscles to strengthen further. Approximately eight sessions (done while lying down) can replace weeks, if not months, of effort on the exercise machines. However, the very best, lasting results can only be achieved in combination with a healthy diet and regular exercise.

If you would like to find out more, I would be happy to arrange a personal consultation.

FAQs – Frequently asked questions

EMSculpt is primarily designed to strengthen and define the muscles. It is not primarily a weight loss treatment. It uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy to create supramaximal muscle contractions that strengthen and build muscle tissue. Although EMSculpt can help reduce fat in the treated areas, it is not intended as a primary weight loss method. Instead, it is for fine-tuning the body shape to create a more defined silhouette.

The muscles built by EMSculpt are just as “real” as those achieved through excercise and strength training. They therefore also atrophy in the same way. If the muscles are not used after the treatment, they will break down again. Regular physical activity and a healthy lifestyle are therefore the best way to maintain the results of EMSculpt treatment in the long term.

Existing buttock muscles can be strengthened and shaped with EMSculpt in such a way that surgery such as a surgical butt lift can be avoided.

An EmSculpt treatment takes 30 minutes per zone. You can easily treat several muscle areas, such as the buttocks and the abdomen, at a single appointment.

An initial effect can be seen after just four treatments over a period of two weeks. Ideally, a further four treatments should be carried out at weekly intervals. Afterwards, it is advisable to continue exercising the treated regions in order to maintain the muscle build-up.
