What Is Emsculpt and How Does
It Work?
Emsculpt is an FDA-approved body contouring treatment that simultaneously builds muscle and burns fat using high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy. During an Emsculpt session, the device stimulates thousands of supramaximal muscle contractions in the target area – the equivalent of doing 20,000 crunches or squats in 30 minutes!
These powerful contractions drive your muscles beyond what is possible through normal exercise, resulting in increased muscle mass and toning. As a bonus, the intense muscle activity triggers your body to break down nearby fat cells for energy, reducing stubborn fat pockets. In clinical studies, Emsculpt led to an average 16% increase in muscle mass and 19% reduction in fat after a series of treatments. In simple terms, Emsculpt helps you whittle away excess fat and define your muscles – all while you rest during the procedure.

Your EmSculpt Treatment:
What to
Expect
During the Procedure: An Emsculpt session at our Forest Hills office is quick and painless. You’ll lie comfortably on the exam table while our provider straps the small Emsculpt paddle device to your target area (such as your abdomen or buttocks). The treatment lasts about 30 minutes. You will feel a series of muscle contractions – some rapid, some slower and more intense. Initially, the sensation can be surprising: it’s like your muscles are working out on their own. However, it’s typically not painful. Our technician will start at a low intensity and gradually increase the power to your comfort level. Most patients adjust to the feeling quickly. There is no anesthesia or numbing needed, and you can relax (some patients read or listen to music during the treatment!).


When Will I See Results
from EmSculpt?
Visible results don’t happen overnight, but they develop quickly over a few weeks. We typically recommend a series of four Emsculpt sessions, spaced about 2-3 days apart (e.g., two sessions per week for two weeks). Many patients report feeling a difference (stronger core, firmer muscles) even a few days after their first session. After completing the full series of 4 treatments, clinical studies and our experience show that you’ll notice improved muscle tone and fat reduction in the treated area within about 2 to 4 weeks. Your jeans may fit looser at the waist, or you might see more definition in the mirror. These improvements often continue to enhance for several weeks as your body builds muscle and clears away the broken-down fat cells.
Benefits of EmSculpt – Muscle Toning and Fat Reduction
Emsculpt is a unique treatment because it targets two goals at once: stronger muscles and less fat. Key benefits of Emsculpt include:
- Non-Invasive: No surgery, injections, or incisions. You can lie back during the procedure, no downtime or recovery needed afterward.
- Efficient Workouts: Each 30-minute session induces muscle contractions equivalent to months of gym workouts, saving you time.
- Fat Burning: While toning muscles, Emsculpt also reduces fat in the treated area. It’s been compared to CoolSculpting® in fat reduction, but Emsculpt goes further by adding muscle definition.
- Safe and FDA-Approved: Emsculpt is FDA-cleared for areas like the abdomen and buttocks, with proven safety. It’s a comfortable, controlled treatment performed by our trained providers.
- Confidence Boost: Patients often observe a more defined abdomen, a firmer, lifted buttock, or improved muscle tone, leading to enhanced confidence in their appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Emsculpt is not painful for the majority of individuals; instead, it feels like an intensive workout induced while you’re resting. You might experience some level of discomfort or odd sensation during the strongest contractions – patients often describe it as “weird but tolerable” since you’re not used to your muscles contracting without you controlling them. After the session, you will not have any incisions or soreness on the skin, but you may feel that your muscles were worked, similar to post-gym soreness. Mild muscle fatigue or tenderness is a common side effect, and it’s a sign the treatment did its job. Our providers will monitor you and can adjust the intensity if you feel too uncomfortable at any point. There is no downtime after Emsculpt. Once your session is done, you can immediately return to your daily routine – go back to work, drive home, or even hit the gym if you’re up for it (though your abs might prefer a break!).
There is no downtime at all. You might feel mild muscle soreness for a day or two (as if you did an intense workout targeting that area), but it won’t stop you from normal activities. There are no incisions, no anesthesia, and no known serious side effects. It’s a very safe procedure.
Pricing can vary depending on the number of sessions and the area treated. During your consultation, we’ll discuss the recommended treatment plan and provide a transparent cost breakdown. We also often have package deals or financing options to make achieving your goals more affordable.
Fat reduction from Emsculpt is long-lasting (those fat cells are gone for good, barring significant weight gain). Muscle gains can be maintained with regular exercise. Some patients opt for maintenance Emsculpt sessions every 3-6 months to keep their muscles toned, but this is optional. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle will help ensure your results stay as long as possible.
Emsculpt is ideal for individuals who are close to their healthy body weight but want to tone up problem areas. If you have small pockets of stubborn fat or want more muscle definition in your abs or glutes, Emsculpt could be a great option. It’s not designed as a weight-loss treatment for those who still have significant weight to lose. The best results are seen in relatively fit patients looking for an extra edge in toning. Both women and men can benefit from Emsculpt. Our providers will evaluate you to ensure Emsculpt is appropriate for your goals. (Patients with metal implants or certain medical devices, like pacemakers, may be advised against Emsculpt due to the electromagnetic technology.)
Emsculpt’s fat-loss results are lasting – once fat cells are destroyed, they do not return, so long as you maintain your weight. The muscle-building results can last many months but are not permanent. Think of it like jump-starting your fitness: after Emsculpt, you’ll have stronger muscle fibers, but without regular exercise or maintenance treatments, muscles can gradually return to their previous state over time. We advise patients to keep up an active lifestyle and a healthy diet to prolong their results. Some choose to come in for a maintenance Emsculpt session every few months to keep their muscle gains. Just like staying in shape after the gym, a little upkeep goes a long way. Our team will create a follow-up plan that fits your needs, whether that’s periodic touch-ups or integration with your workout routine.
