How does Emsculpt Work?
For the first time ever, were therapeutically using magnetic fields.

Its basically like a mini MRI machine.
What exactly does that mean?
This is activating 100 percent of the muscle 20,000 times in a 30-minute period.

Who is Emsculpt For?
Wondering whether youre an ideal candidate for Emsculpt?
Frank cautions that, while Emsculpt can help reduce fat, its main function involves building muscle.
Therefore, the less fat you have in the treatment location, the more visible results you’ll yield.
BecauseEmsculpt is a non-invasive procedure, patients wont need to fast or undergo rest time prior to their appointments.
Just show up to your appointment, and thats it!
What to Expect During an Emsculpt Procedure
The actual Emsculpt process is relatively painless.
The contractions occur a few seconds apart and feel strangelike super-intense vibrations that reach your very core.
This experience felt slightly uncomfortable during my first treatment but got better and easier with each additional appointment.
Your feet will lift up with every contraction, which helped me feel like the treatment was definitely working.
I couldnt believe how quickly the treatment breezed by.
Two weeks went by, and I still had nothing in terms of visible results.
Yogais pretty much the only form of exercise that I enjoy, but my practice is sporadic.
Theres nothing more frustrating than hitting aworkout plateau.
I chalked this up to the fact that I wasnt the “ideal patient” Frank described.
But then, one day, I looked in the mirror and literally did a double-take.
Could those be faint outlines of muscle definition I was seeing in my stomach area?
Could they be… abs?
I felt more confident in my swimsuit, wearing a cropped top, and being naked.
Its not like I suddenly woke up with a rock-hard six-pack, but the change was undeniable.
Also, the safety of the rig has been supported by numerous studies, says Sobel.
in their bodies, as these could interfere with the magnetic waves.
From there, you’ve got the option to purchase packages to keep up with your Emsculpt results.
Truth be told, at that price point, the treatment is not all that attainable for most people.
But Frank explains that the actual machine itself is a $250,000 MRI machine, which explains the cost.
The Final Takeaway
I should emphasize that, while effective, Emsculpt isn’t a miracle cure.
Was all of the fat in my stomach area replaced by abs that could cut steel?
But did my stomach areafeel(and look) leaner, tighter, and just all-around more toned?
This is going to do for the body whatBotoxdid for the face in the 90s, Frank predicts.
Its really going to change the game for medical and cosmetic applications.
The body is the new face.
