EMSCULPT Toning and Slimming | Dr. Samuel Beran

For many of my patients, maybe you included, they would very much like to have a toned, muscular midsection, particularly their abs and butt, but they simply don’t have endless hours to spend at the gym and they don’t want surgery. Before, they often felt defeated, but now there’s a non-invasive, highly effective solution called EmSculpt that delivers amazing results.

This revolutionary body shaping treatment burns fat and increases muscle mass without strenuous workouts, plastic surgery or downtime. EmSculpt is just one of the many ways I can help you achieve a more beautiful body. To learn more, click here.                  

What is EmSculpt and what will it do?

EmSculpt is a dramatically different body contouring treatment that uses an electromagnetic field to induce strong muscle contractions to a degree that cannot be achieved by standard workouts. These high-frequency contractions tighten the muscles in your abdomen and buttocks, causing them to grow and build, the same way as if you were working out. The difference? EmSculpt does this in 35 minutes instead of weeks, months or even years at the gym.

Frequently asked questions

  1. What areas of the body can be treated with EmSculpt?

The EmSculpt procedure is currently FDA approved to treat:

  • abdomen
  • buttocks
  • arms
  • calves
  • thighs 
  1. Am I a good candidate?

EmSculpt is meant for people with a BMI (body mass index) below 25 who would not be candidates for other fat reduction treatments. I recommend it as an effective muscle toning method for patients who:

  • are in good shape to begin with
  • are not overweight
  • do not have excess fat to remove
  • do not have excess skin
  • want to tone their abdominal muscles and lift their buttocks
  • want to build up muscle groups that they can’t achieve through other means
  • do not have time to spend hours at the gym to get these same results
  1. How long does an EmSculpt treatment take?

The treatment requires four 35-minute sessions — two a week for two weeks — to achieve maximum results. 

  1. What does it feel like?

An EmSculpt treatment feels like an intensive workout, but instead of having to do strenuous exercise, you can lie down and relax during the session. 

  1. How much will my body change?

Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, EmSculpt increases muscle mass by 16% and reduces the waistline by approximately 19%, according to bodybybtl.

  1. Is there any downtime?

Since the EmSculpt is non-invasive and non-surgical, it requires no recovery time or any pre/post treatment preparation. 

  1. How fast will I see results?

You will begin to feel tangible results immediately after the treatment. Positive results are usually reported 2-4 weeks after the last session and they continue to improve for several weeks following the treatments. 

  1. Are the results permanent?

No. If you stop the treatments and do not exercise the muscles in that area, the toning will stop, too. 

  1. How much does EmSculpt cost?

Because every person’s body is different, and the results they are seeking from a body sculpting procedure are specific to them, the exact cost of this treatment is determined after I have met with you and together, we have decided that EmSculpt is the best way to achieve the results you are looking for.

  1. Will my insurance cover it?

No. Insurance companies consider EmSculpt to be an elective cosmetic treatment and usually do not cover it, which means the treatment would be self-pay.
