Frequently Asked Questions
Anyone can benefit from the EMSCULPT® procedure, though patients with a BMI less than 30 tend to see greater results.
20-30 minute treatment with minimum of 4 sessions scheduled 2-3 days apart. We will help you create a treatment plan tailored to your specific goals.
The EMSCULPT procedure feels like an intensive workout. You can lie down and relax during the treatment.
Just bring yourself! EMSCULPT has no pre/post treatment preparation, although keeping hydrated is always helpful for any body sculpting procedure.
Just as muscles will expand during a strenuous workout, the treatment area will feel firmer and tighter after just one EMSCULPT session. As the body begins to flush out the destroyed fat cells over two to four weeks, patients notice a gradual improvement for up to 3 months. In clinical trials, patients saw an average fat reduction of 19%, with an increase in muscle mass of up to 16%.
The results of EMSCULPT actually improve over time, with the best results showing at about three months. After the initial treatment series, patients usually talk about follow-up maintenance treatments after about three months. Some patients prefer another treatment package, while others receive treatment on other areas, while still others prefer to continue more frequent treatments for maintenance. Speak with us about your goals and budget to determine what follow up treatments would be best for you.
EMSCULPT renders the best results for adults in good shape who desire better definition, rather than significant weight loss. Because muscle weighs more than fat, some patients may lose no weight or even gain weight. We will talk about the target weight you should aim for to get the most out of your EMSCULPT appointments and the best long-term results.
Although the procedure does not target the love handles area specifically, buttock and abdomen treatments will often help to minimize love handles.
EMSCULPT is entirely non-invasive, and does not involve any downtime. You’re free to go about your daily routine immediately following treatment. You may experience soreness similar to that of an intensive workout several days post-treatment, but EMSCULPT does not require rest time. You can drive and get back to your regular day right after treatment, making it a great lunch break procedure.
Some patients experience some DOMS – Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. If by the subsequent appointment the treatment area is still considerably sore, please talk to us for any possible adjustments to your treatment.
Exercise and drinking plenty of water can help flush out toxins and lactic acid. Because there is no downtime and because EMSCULPT targets the muscle and not the skin surface, most other massages and aesthetic procedures are safe enough while still completing EMSCULPT treatments. We may suggest a combination procedure or complementary treatments for skin tightening, anti-aging, or additional body contouring, depending on your goals.
It may seem like EMSCULPT is quite similar to CoolSculpting, the popular nonsurgical fat-reduction solution. But the two are actually very different.
EMSCULPT is a much more natural procedure than CoolSculpting, which freezes and destroys fat cells. While the intended results of each treatment are similar, EMSCULPT patients often see results more quickly. With CoolSculpting, it can take months for your body to eliminate the fat cells that produce your results; EMSCULPT gives most patients visible results in mere weeks. Both treatments offer patients no downtime.
Both EMSCULPT and CoolSculpting contour your body and get rid of bothersome fat bulges. However, CoolSculpting will only reduce fat stores, whereas EMSCULPT will help your body naturally burn off fat cells and achieve stronger muscles. The result will be toned, sexy contours.

Ultimately, your choice of procedure is highly personal, but the advantages of EMSCULPT make it worth considering as your first choice for body contouring.
The length of EMSCULPT results will last a different amount of time for each person. To keep your results looking great, we recommend a healthy lifestyle that consists of exercise and wholesome eating. As with regular strength training, muscles will atrophy without use. Many patients find that EMSCULPT kickstarts or keeps their fitness levels high, even bolstering their commitment to their muscular health. Some of our patients come in every two to six months to keep their body looking flawless. Some of our patients come in every one to six months to keep their body looking flawless.
EMSCULPT is not often covered by most insurance plans, since it is considered an elective treatment.
It may qualify as an eligible expense by most HSA plans.
We offers inhouse financing, various payment plans, and price matching for all services performed by a medical doctor.
