How Long Should Your EMSCULPT Results Last?

For decades, liposuction was one of the only options to get body sculpting help to look more trim and fit. However, with advancements in technology, more noninvasive options, like EMSCULPT®, are now a possibility. Innovative treatments like CoolSculpting® and EMSCULPT are taking over the cosmetic world and don't seem to be slowing down in popularity as patients see positive results. While, for many, losing weight is the toughest part of the journey, gaining muscle tone after weight loss can be difficult. Even men and women who are diligent about working out can hit a roadblock when trying to take their body to the next level. EMSCULPT is a revolutionary body contouring treatment that tones and lifts by targeting both fat and muscle, but how long do the results last?

The experts at JEM Medspa are proud to offer EMSCULPT as a nonsurgical body contouring option for both women and men. With two convenient locations in Elmhurst and Orland Park, IL, our mission is to help individuals look and feel their best. Read on to learn more about this revolutionary way to shed unwanted fat and increase muscle mass, and what kind of EMSCULPT results you can expect.

EMSCULPT Chicago: How does it work?

While most body sculpting treatments reduce unwanted fat, EMSCULPT targets both fat and muscle. It uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy or (HIFEM®), forcing the targeted muscles to contract. These powerful contractions make the muscle tissue restructure, eventually causing excess fat around them to break down and die off. These eliminated fat cells are then metabolized by the body, leaving patients with more muscle tone and a firmer appearance in their abs and glutes, resulting in a more contoured profile.

What is the EMSCULPT results timeline?

EMSCULPT not only helps men and women rebuild and strengthen muscles, but patients can also look more toned and slimmer with this cutting-edge treatment in Elmhurst and Orland Park, IL. EMSCULPT is one of the quickest and easiest treatments to build more muscle and reduce fat. This outpatient body contouring procedure is performed on-site at JEM Medspa and takes about 30 minutes while patients sit back and relax. If patients opt to target multiple areas during a single session, it can take longer. Afterward, patients report feeling some soreness in the treated area for about 1 – 2 days, and that they feel almost immediate results. It takes about 2 – 3 months post-treatment for more visible results, which can continue to improve for up to six months.

Do EMSCULPT results last?

EMSCULPT has become an ideal cosmetic option for physically fit women and men in overall good health who have a BMI (body mass index) of 30 or less and need additional body sculpting help. The EMSCULPT cutting-edge technology focuses on causing muscle contractions beyond what is possible naturally with exercising. These supramaximal contractions help tighten muscles and build a more chiseled body frame by shedding unwanted fat. As the muscle tissue undergoes this cellular change, it causes them to become stronger, while any excess fat around them is reduced. However, the muscle mass gained with EMSCULPT treatments is not permanent. On average, patients can enjoy their EMSCULPT results for about six months or longer. It is recommended that patients maintain a healthy diet and exercise, along with regular follow-up EMSCULPT sessions every few months.

Despite a person's best effort with a healthy diet and regular exercise, it can be challenging to have more defined abs or a toned, lifted butt. Imagine how nice it would be to sit and relax while a device does all the work. A single EMSCULPT session is equivalent to doing about 20,000 squats or sit-ups. This body sculpting treatment is giving patients more muscle definition and less fat, to help them have the toned, fit-looking body they always wanted.
