Emsculpt in Lancaster
If your goal is firmer, more toned-looking muscle, Emsculpt is the clinic's muscle-stimulation option. This page explains how it works, who it may suit and how it differs from cavitation.
Quick answer
Emsculpt is a high-intensity electromagnetic treatment that makes your muscles contract repeatedly as part of a muscle-toning programme. At Naomi Waite Aesthetics in Lancaster it is used for muscle stimulation and toning, including abdominal and other body programmes. It focuses on muscle rather than fat-melting, and suitability is assessed at consultation.
What is Emsculpt?
Emsculpt is a genuine branded high-intensity electromagnetic muscle-stimulation device, a technology sometimes described as HI-EMT. It is used in a muscle-toning programme rather than as a skin or facial treatment.
Its focus is the muscle. That is what sets it apart from treatments such as cavitation, which is a body-contouring technology rather than a muscle stimulator.
How Emsculpt works
Emsculpt delivers electromagnetic energy to the treatment area. This energy causes the muscles underneath to contract repeatedly, and those contractions are the basis of the muscle-toning programme.
We do not publish device settings or a set protocol. Your programme is planned by your practitioner around the area, your goals and your assessment.
What Emsculpt can help with
Emsculpt may be considered for the goals below. Your practitioner will confirm which areas and programmes are offered and suitable for you.
- Muscle toning
- Abdominal muscle stimulation, as part of a body programme
- Other body areas, as offered and assessed at consultation
Is Emsculpt right for me?
Emsculpt tends to suit people whose main goal is muscle toning. If your priority is contouring a specific area, cavitation may be a better match, and your practitioner can explain the difference.
Suitability depends on your health, medical history, medications and whether you have any implanted electronic or metal devices, so please tell your practitioner about all of these at consultation. They will explain whether Emsculpt is appropriate for you.
What happens during treatment
At your consultation, your practitioner talks through your goals, the area you would like to treat and your medical history, and explains how a programme would be planned.
On the day, you will be asked to remove electronic devices and metal accessories. The applicator is positioned over the treatment area, and you will feel your muscles contracting during the session. Your practitioner will check your comfort throughout.
Downtime and aftercare
We do not give a fixed recovery time. Because the treatment works the muscles, some people notice muscle soreness afterwards, similar to after exercise, and your practitioner will explain what to expect.
You will be given aftercare to follow, based on these principles:
- Follow your written aftercare as advised
- Stay well hydrated
- Keep to the programme your practitioner has planned
- Contact the clinic if anything concerns you
How Emsculpt compares with cavitation
Emsculpt and Megashape Cavitation are both body treatments, but their goals are different. Emsculpt is about muscle stimulation rather than being a generic fat-melting treatment, while cavitation is a body-contouring technology that is not a weight-loss treatment.
Results
Response to Emsculpt varies from person to person, so we do not promise a set change in muscle or fat, or a fixed timescale. Your practitioner will give you an honest view of what is realistic for you.
