FAQ

Em sculpt is a completely new type of body contouring. Em sculpt actually builds and tones muscle! Em sculpt uses the new type of patented energy called HIFEM which stands for High Intense Focused Electro Magnetic energy. This is the same type of energy used in an MRI so it’s safe. But Em sculpt is much more powerful than an MRI. In fact, it’s so powerful that it’s able to make the muscle perceive the magnetic energy as a signal from the brain to induce a muscle contraction. And it does this without any discomfort to the patient.

Em sculpt creates a magnetic field around the muscle and in turn causes the muscle to involuntarily contract. Really fast! 20,000 times in 30 Minutes! That’s equivalent to 20,000 crunches on the abs and 20,000 squats for the butt lift. When you do 6 sessions of Emsculpt with us, We just gave you 3 years of crunches/squats in only 3 weeks.

Treatments are performed twice per week generally in a series 6 sessions per area. There are two things that make an Em sculpt contraction better than a contraction from ordinary exercise. First, during a regular contraction in the gym your brain sends a signal to activate approximately 45-55% of your muscle fibers. During an Em sculpt involuntary muscle contraction signaled by magnetic energy, approximately 95-100% of your muscle fibers are contracted. This leads to the ability to create more muscle fibers and to make these muscle fibers bigger and stronger. The second reason that makes Em sculpt able to build and tone muscle better than a regular exercise contraction is that Em sculpt has a programmed “cycle” within the treatment that pumps out lactic acid. Pumping out this lactic acid during the exercise removes the main deterrent that hinders muscle growth. Em sculpt is FDA cleared for muscle building and toning the buttocks, abdomen, legs, and arms.

Em sculpt has a well received side effect. It actually causes adjacent fat cells in the treated area to die through a process of apoptosis, which is basically suicide for the fat cell. Because of the 20k muscle contractions that are being performed in 30 minutes with Em sculpt, a lot of energy is needed to feed these contractions. It has been discovered that the muscle steals nearby energy for its involuntary contractions by causing the adjacent fat cell to release all of its free fatty acids at once. Releasing all of these free fatty acids at once are making the fat cells on both sides of the muscle permanently die. What does this mean for the patient? One is that the abdomen shows a 21% permanent decrease in fat cells after a series of treatments. Second, it looks as if the abdominal muscle is stealing fat from the visceral fat on the interior side of the abdominal wall as well. So we may for the first time have a way to treat the unhealthy, visceral fat that accumulates around the organs. What a nice side effect at no extra charge. Cool Sculpting is still our preferred treatment for permanent fat reduction but it never hurts to have extra help from another body contouring treatment, Em sculpt.

Em sculpt can also be used as a therapeutic treatment. We are currently working with senior who have lost core strength and have resorted to walking with canes. With Em sculpt for the geriatric patient we can safely and effectively build leg and core strength increasing qualify of life. And we can make life more comfortable for this population by building back the butt so that sitting on hard surfaces for long periods of time is easier. This is also break through technology to build muscle for patients who have had strokes or are paralyzed. It can even build back the muscle in amputee patients that don’t have the ability to exercise a muscle because part of the muscle or limb is missing.

Cool Sculpting and Em sculpt compliment each other. One of our patients used a combination of Cool Sculpting and Em sculpt to transform his body into a chiseled work of art by using Cool Sculpting and Em sculpt on his abdomen and Cool Sculpting alone on his flanks or “love handles” for his torso. On his lower body we used Em sculpt on his buttocks, quadriceps, and hamstrings to develop the legs he always wanted. And finally we used Em sculpt on an “off label “ area… his back to grow his lats to broaden his shoulders and to develop the “V-shape” to accent his new waist line. The results for this patient was phenomenal.

“I never thought it was possible to look like this at age 45. I have always struggled to put on muscle mass. I’ve had small, embarrassing legs my entire life and my torso was “skinny fat’. My back looked like a bird. No shape at all. I literally transformed my body into something I don’t even recognize in the mirror after 12 weeks because of my CoolSculpting and Emsculpt treatments. It was an expensive risk for me. I was weary because the technology is so new. But I’m so thankful I tried it.” – Clint W

When someone is looking to make dramatic changes in the body, sometimes fat reduction alone isn’t enough. A well-defined, contoured figure or physique has both proportionate muscle mass and body fat composition. This requires a dedicated diet combined with regular exercise, but can be accelerated and perfected with the appropriate non-invasive body contouring treatments with Cool Sculpting or Em sculpt.

While a spa facial provides numerous benefits, including improved blood flow to the skin tissues, hydration, exfoliation, and extractions, they are generally not as clinically effective in clearing pores of impurities and infusing hyaluronic acid directly into the skin. The benefits are generally not as long-lasting as those of a Hydro facial. Spa facials are traditionally more relaxing, using a combination of oils, warm towels, massage, and other “feel-good” therapies. In contrast, a VIP Hydro facial feels good and demonstrates significant clinical effectiveness in treating skin conditions. It is by far one of our most popular treatments for both men and women as well as teens. It can even be performed on pregnant women.

STEP ONE: CLEANSING

The first step of a Hydro facial involves cleansing and a mild peel. It uncovers a new layer of skin with gentle exfoliation and relaxing resurfacing.

STEP TWO: EXTRACTION AND HYDRATION

Next, we move on to extractions and hydration. Removes debris from pores with painless suction while the bad is being sucked out, the good is being infused in. Hyaluronic acid is infused until the point the skin will no longer absorb it to quench and hydrate giving you that hydro facial glow.

STEP THREE: PROTECT

Finally, we fuse and protect by saturating the skin surface with antioxidants and peptides to maximize the glow. We also use a combination of red or blue LED light therapy to target fine lines and wrinkles and destroy PE. Acnes bacteria.

Medskin Special Addition: We added a Cryo Massage with a Cold Compress Mask treatment to further nourish, calm, and close the pores. After the Hydro facial is complete, your esthetician will apply a couple of our favorite Medskin Skin Health products and a sunscreen to protect your investment.

Cool Sculpting is our “go-to” device to permanently destroy and remove fat. In our opinion, there is no better way to permanently remove pockets of fat and to contour the body than with Cool Sculpting. Keep in mind that Cool Sculpting isn’t for weight loss and isn’t for debulking large areas of fat. It’s made for people who are at or close to their ideal weight, but are left with unsightly bulges on the abdomen, love handles, back, arms, legs, knees and the double chin. Cool Sculpting is FDA cleared for permanent fat removal.

CoolSculpting and Emsculpt work hand in hand as the perfect synergistic combination to essentially transform your body not just to look more slim, but well defined. Patients used a combination of CoolSculpting and Emsculpt to transform the ultimate body contouring.

Anyone can benefit from the Em sculpt procedure at MedSkin in THE COLONY, Texas 75056. The ideal candidate with most visible results can be seen in patients searching to gain definition in their body opposed to losing fat/weight. Oftentimes, our treatment providers will suggest pairing Emsculpt with another body contouring technique, such as Coolsculpting.

This technique doesn’t require any special pre post treatment preparation. Emsculpt is a non-invasive body sculpting treatment that provides the benefit of minimal to no downtime. The initial treatment feels like an intensive workout. You can lay down and relax during the treatment. Unlike other treatments, Emsculpt does not cause bruising.

What is unique about the Emsculpt treatment is the tapping mechanism incorporated into the treatment which helps to rid the body of lactic acid (an acid usually produced by your muscles after an intense workout which leads to feeling sore). With the technology in the Emsculpt machine contracting the muscle and burning the fat cells, you can get the benefits of a workout without the soreness that comes with it!

The number of Emsculpt treatments you will need depends on the area you are looking to treat. Positive results are usually reported two to four weeks after your last session and will continue to improve for several weeks following the treatments. The technicians at MedSkin will sit down with you to determine the treatment plan you will need based on the location and amount of your desired goals and get you started on a schedule.

Treatment pricing at MedSkin can vary depending on the location of the area being treated and how many sessions would be required. Pricing is discussed upon a consultation with the treatment provider. Call 469-768-8622 to book a consultation or request it on the website above.

During your consultation, our board certified technicians will first analyze your body type in order to design the best suited treatment program. The number of sessions would also be determined as per your body type. Come find out if you are a good candidate today!

The most obvious question most people want answered is: “Is Emsculpt worth it?” Emsculpting is a great non-surgical option as opposed to other invasive butt lift treatments. You won’t have to worry about your comfort during the treatment and, with Emsculpt, you can now obtain a lifted butt without going through hours in the gym or enduring painful surgery. That sounds pretty good, seeing as our obsession with the plump and perky buttocks doesn’t seem to be going away anytime soon.

Silicone inserts is a surgery that may require anywhere from three to six months to see the full results and may even need multiple follow-ups for several years to maintain results.

EmSculpt treatments give the desired butt lift without depending on imitator inserts or injectables. It’s a safe alternative that will get your booty back to life! Patients who routinely work the muscle groups focused on by the EmSculpt treatments will, in general, observe the longest-enduring outcomes. A healthy lifestyle after discontinued service is suggested to maintain the best treatment results.
