Are Emsculpt® Results Permanent?

Many of us know the frustration of working out regularly and practicing a healthy lifestyle but still not seeing the toned figure we’re striving for. If your exercise routine isn’t yielding the results you want, EmSculpt® may be the perfect solution for an athletic, contoured body.

What is EmSculpt®?

EmSculpt® is an FDA-cleared device used for muscle toning and body contouring. This innovative device uses electromagnetic technology to stimulate muscle contractions, increasing strength and tone.

At Alamo Ranch, EmSculpt® is one of our multiple body contouring treatments to help you reach your goal body. EmSculpt® can be used on multiple areas of the body, including the:

• Arms
• Abdomen
• Glutes
• Calves
• Thighs

How Does EmSculpt® Muscle Toning Work?

Repetitive muscle movements gradually strengthen and build the affected muscles. During a workout, you target specific muscles with these repetitive movements. You can do more and more repetitions as you get stronger, or you can add resistance to increase the benefits, but you only have so much time and energy.

What if you could do thousands of repetitions in just 30 minutes? That’s exactly what EmSculpt® allows you to do. The device delivers high-intensity electromagnetic energy to targeted muscles, stimulating involuntary contractions. A single EmSculpt® treatment is the equivalent of several hours of normal exercise.

The same stress on your muscles that causes them to repair and strengthen themselves also breaks down fat cells. Consequently, EmSculpt® can also help you get rid of stubborn fat around your stomach, legs, or arms.

How Long Do EmSculpt® Results Last?

The results of EmSculpt® are a lot like the results of your workouts: they don’t happen overnight and require multiple sessions. We typically recommend four or more treatments scheduled several days apart.

Once you achieve your desired results, keeping them is up to you. Many patients choose to have maintenance treatments every six months or so, and continuing a healthy lifestyle with regular workouts is essential to preserving your toned figure. You can expect your EmSculpt® results to be long-lasting with proper exercise, diet, and maintenance treatments.

What are EmSculpt® Treatments Like?

EmSculpt® treatments at Alamo Ranch typically take just 30 minutes. You’ll lie down comfortably while the applicators are placed on the targeted muscles. Your provider will start with a low-intensity setting and increase gradually. The intensity level can be adjusted according to your goals and comfort, so you shouldn’t experience any discomfort.

Is There Any Downtime After EmSculpt® Treatments?

Feeling sore after a workout is normal, and EmSculpt® is no different. EmSculpt® doesn’t require downtime, but you may be sore for a few days. You can continue your regular activities immediately after treatment.

Am I a Good Candidate for EmSculpt®?

EmSculpt® is an effective treatment for almost anyone. Ideal candidates are overall healthy and at or near their goal weight. EmSculpt® can help burn off stubborn fat but is primarily a muscle-toning treatment and works best as a complement to your workout routine. It’s essential to remember that EmSculpt® is not a replacement for exercise but an effective tool to improve your muscle-building and weight-loss efforts.
