Emsculpt is a non-surgical, FDA-cleared body-contouring technology that uses electromagnetic pulses to produce super-maximal muscle contractions (stronger than you can achieve on your own) in the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, and upper arms. This causes the muscles to enlarge and strengthen and prompts nearby fat to be used as an energy source over a series of four weekly 30-minute sessions. It can be used for physical therapy and rehabilitation, to sculpt existing muscle contours, be part of a customized wellness program, and to augment GLP-1 therapy to increase fat loss while preserving muscle mass.

How the Procedure Is Performed

During Emsculpt treatments, you can wear clothes. You will be positioned on a cushioned table or chair, and the treatment applicator(s) will be positioned over the desired treatment area(s) and comfortably secured in place for your 30-minute session

The procedure typically includes:

  • Positioning of applicator(s)
  • Delivery of targeted electromagnetic pulses
  • Adjustment of intensity based on comfort

The treatment is non-invasive and does not require anesthesia.

Procedure Details

  • Duration: 30 minutes per area treated
  • Anesthesia: None required
  • Setting: In-office procedure
  • Emsculpt is not offered to patients with implanted electronic devices, or metal implants near the treatment area
  • Emsculpt is not performed for the pectoralis, trapezius, or upper latissimus dorsi muscles, as it could inhibit normal breathing

What It Can Help With

Emsculpt is ideal for patients seeking non-surgical body contouring of the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, and upper arms.

Pre-Treatment Guidelines

To prepare for Emsculpt treatments, patients should:

  • Eat and hydrate normally
  • Wear comfortable clothes or gym apparel without metal buttons, underwires or zippers near the treatment sites
  • Avoid irritation and overuse of the treatment area
  • Follow all instructions provided during consultation
  • Do not get your electronic watch, phone, or computer near the magnetic applicators

What to Expect and After Care

Recovery from Emsculpt treatment is minimal.

After treatment:

  • Mild tenderness may occur, like working out an area(s) well
  • There is no downtime
  • Normal activity can be resumed immediately
  • Hydrate well to flush out lactic acid that can accumulate during your treatment

Patients should:

  • Complete recommended treatment sessions
  • Continue a high-protein diet and exercise
  • Attend follow-up visits as needed

Treatment Timeline

  • A series of treatments is typically recommended
  • Gradual improvement over several months
  • Can be repeated to maintain and until the desired results are achieved

Results

Emsculpt electromagnetic, super maximal muscle contractions and body contouring can improve definition, endurance, strength, and wellness when performed in combination with an appropriate diet, exercise, optimized hormone status, and lifestyle

Results vary depending on the patient.

Consultation

Accurate assessment is essential for body contouring. During your consultation, Dr. Z or ARLV Staff will review your medical history, discuss diet, exercise, your current BMI, and goals to determine whether Emsculpt treatments may be part of a program to help you optimize and maintain your body contours.
