EMS Body Sculpting
EMS BODY SCULPTING
EMS BODY SCULPTING stimulates muscles in the abdomen, arms, buttocks and calves to simultaneously build muscle mass and reduce unwanted fat.
EMS BODY SCULPTING is a new device in body-contouring. This machine contracts muscles beyond what is possible through voluntary effort, yielding better muscle tone and enhanced fat reduction. The process works by directing highly focused electromagnetic energy to the area, forcing the muscles to contract to 100% and holding it there for up to six seconds. The average person, no matter how strong, can only contract their muscles to their 30-35% capacity for a fraction of a second. In response to these contractions, the muscle reconstructs itself, and fat cells in the area are eliminated.
How does EMS BODY SCULPTING work?
EMS BODY SCULPTING uses High-Intensity Focused Electro-Magnetic technology to induce supramaximal muscle contractions that are not achievable by voluntary actions, like exercise. Used on the abdomen, arms, buttocks and calves, these supramaximal contractions have benefits for both fat and muscle. In one treatment, you will achieve the equivalent of 20,000 sit-ups, curls, squats or calf raises. Supramaximal muscle contractions trigger hyperplasia and hypertrophy to grow muscles.

What is EMS BODY SCULPTING recovery like?
EMS BODY SCULPTING is non-invasive and requires no recovery time. This is a great option for many patients because they don’t have to prep for treatment or follow any kind of post-care plan. Some patients experience mild soreness, but nothing as intense as what you would feel from a traditional workout.
Are there any risks?
EMS BODY SCULPTING has been clinically tested for safety and efficacy through seven independent US-based clinical studies. In fact, on average, the following results were achieved in clinical studies on healthy patients:
• 19% reduction of fat
• 4 cm (~1.5 inches) loss in waistline circumference
• 16% increase in muscle mass
• 11% reduction in abdominal muscle separation (called diastasis recti)
• 5x increase in fat metabolism (apoptotic index increased from 19% to 92% after treatment)
• 80% patients with visible lifting effect of buttocks
• 96% patient satisfaction
There are a few contraindications that our team will go through with you during a consultation. The main risk is metal implants in body near the treatment site.
Is EMS BODY SCULPTING safe?
EMS BODY SCULPTING is an energy device approved to build muscle mass. EMS BODY SCULPTING technology is backed by 7 independent clinical studies. Like any surgical or non-surgical procedure, there are risks associated. As a teacher and trainer of other physicians in safe, effective body contouring procedures, Dr. ANNA MONTESA stresses the importance of finding an experienced provider supervised by a physician who understands the finer points of treatment.
EMS BODY SCULPTING downtime
EMS BODY SCULPTING is extremely well tolerated and feels like an intense workout. There is no downtime or pre/post treatment preparation.
EMS BODY SCULPTING results
EMS BODY SCULPTING produces noticeable improvement of muscle strength and tone. Immediately after treatment you will feel results, just like after an intense workout at the gym. Visible signs of improvement are typically reported 2-4 weeks after the last session and continue to improve for several weeks following. Individual results may vary. A minimum of 4 treatments is recommended.
Is EMS BODY SCULPTING different from MESOTHERAPY LIPOMELT?
Results from these 2 treatments are pretty different, and hard to compare. MESOTHERAPY LIPOMELT is used to target stubborn fat, where EMS BODY SCULPTING is used to build and tone muscle. Patients looking for a more toned look (and who are already fairly lean) are great candidates. If patients want to reduce “pinchable” rolls of fat then they will likely be a better candidate for MESOTHERAPY LIPOMELT first. Most patients fall somewhere in between these two extremes, and that’s where the consultation process helps to determine which treatment the better option.
Does EMS BODY SCULPTING hurt?
No! EMS BODY SCULPTING does not cause pain or discomfort. Patients usually say they feel a “pulling” sensation. Our aestheticians have total control of the treatment intensity, so patients are always treated at a level that is comfortable to them.
What’s an EMS BODY SCULPTING treatment like?
At the first appointment, patients will have photos of the treatment area taken so that we are able to benchmark progress. We have treatment rooms equipped with a TV and healthy snacks to make the experience more comfortable. The first step is securing the applicator to the treatment area, then the process begins! Each treatment takes 20-40 minutes depending on the area.
When will I see results?
You will begin to feel results immediately after EMS BODY SCULPTING. These will be small changes, like posture improvements of decreased fatigue during exercise. Most patients are noticing visible results around three months post-treatment, and maintain results with a maintenance plan. Clinical studies have shown that results can continue to improve for up to six months.
How long will EMS BODY SCULPTING results last?
If you work out once and never go back to the gym, those muscle atrophy, and the same is true for muscle mass gained by EMS BODY SCULPTING. You can expect to keep your results for six months to a year, but it is recommended that you keep these results up with a healthy lifestyle of diet and exercise. We also have special maintenance pricing after you finish your package so you can come in to maintain results.
