EMSCULPT
At a glance
New for 2023 at Dermoperfection, EMSCULPT is a world-first treatment to help build muscle and sculpt the body non-invasively.
EMSCULPT uses HIFEM (high intensity focused electromagnetic) technology, which is a powerful but harmless way to contract the muscles and burn fat the same way exercise would.
A single session causes thousands of muscle contractions that improve muscle strength and tone. These contractions are quite intense, but this ensures the muscles adapt to the conditions and therefore builds more muscle and sculpts the body.
EMSCULPT is FDA-approved for treatment on the abdomen and buttocks for both men and women. It can also be used on the arms and calves! To read more about what EMSCULPT is, head to the blog here.
Benefits of EMSCULPT
There are many EMSCULPT benefits, including a 16% average increase in muscle mass and 19% average fat reduction after only 4 treatments, all without the need for surgery, needles or anaesthesia, and no downtime either.
To see results like this just through exercise, you would have to do around 20,000 sit-ups in one session!
EMSCULPT really is perfect for complementing your fitness goals, particularly if you have reached a weight loss or muscle building plateau and want to target any remaining stubborn fat.
This is very popular post-pregnancy too, as it strengthens the core muscles and tones the body without the need for a tummy tuck. It also helps with diastasis recti, which you can read about here.
This treatment is not just exclusive to women though, with male patients also seeing the strengthening and toning benefits. Read more about how it strengthens your core here.
It is also championed by people who are recovering from an injury that has weakened their muscles, and stronger muscles are great for preventing any further injuries.
22 clinical studies have backed the effectiveness of EMSCULPT!
In a study published by JAMA Dermatology, participants who underwent EMSCULPT treatment saw a significant reduction in fat and an increase in muscle mass in the treated areas.
Another study from the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery journal found that EMSCULPT was a safe, well-tolerated and effective treatment!
What can I expect during and following treatment?
- Each EMSCULPT session takes 30 minutes, perfect as a lunchtime treatment. 4 sessions are typically required to see optimal results, which will be scheduled a few days apart.
- You may feel soreness around the treatment area for 1-2 days, but otherwise there is minimal discomfort post-treatment. Results can be seen almost immediately after!
- Whilst the fat reduction from EMSCULPT can be permanent, the muscle effects usually last for around 6 months, however this depends on the individual. Dermoperfection’s expert clinicians will advise on when you can book top-ups.
- To optimise the benefits of EMSCULPT, we recommend maintaining an active and healthy lifestyle. We will discuss if this is the treatment for you during a complimentary consultation.
