Benefits of Using EMS Body Sculpting for Your Skin
Getting your dream body is a long journey, no matter the route you take. A healthy diet and solid workout program can go a long way, but sometimes you need a little more help. Many people struggle with stubborn areas that won’t cooperate no matter what they do! If this is the case, you may want to consider additional treatment options such as EMS body sculpting. In the process, you’ll enjoy benefits both inside and out.
What is EMS Body Sculpting?
EMS stands for “electrical muscle stimulation.” It’s a non-invasive body-shaping treatment that helps you gain better muscle tone and definition where you may be lacking. It does this by inducing muscle contractions that are much more intense and at a higher frequency than a traditional workout.
During treatment, not only will the muscles contract 100%, but every single muscle in the target area will contract. This includes muscles that can’t even be targeted with regular exercise. The muscles also experience up to 20,000 contractions within a 15-minute treatment, something that’s impossible during a regular workout.
All of this helps you achieve efficient and accurate results. Our TruSculpt Flex device is an extremely powerful and accurate machine, helping you target your problem areas with incredible precision.
EMS Body Sculpting: What to Expect
While the average treatment is about 15 minutes, the exact time will depend on your desired treatment area. A standard EMS treatment includes four sessions, spread out over about two weeks. However, your practitioner may recommend more sessions depending on your treatment areas and desired results.
Although the treatment is not painful, some patients report an uncomfortable “pulling” sensation. Your body will adjust to the involuntary contractions, which will ultimately make the procedure more comfortable for you over time.
You will feel the treatment working soon after, with muscles becoming firmer and stronger almost right away. However, the visible results will start to come within two to four weeks. The full, optimal results are seen within eight to 12 weeks after your final session.
Generally, results last anywhere from six months to one year with no maintenance. A healthy and active lifestyle will help you get the most longevity, with many requiring maintenance sessions only once a year.
Who Can Get EMS Body Sculpting Treatments?
Due to the non-surgical and non-invasive nature of EMS body sculpting, it’s suitable for almost anyone. All ages, skin tones, skin types, and body types can benefit from treatment with little to no risks and side effects. However, there are a few exceptions:
- Those who are pregnant or trying to get pregnant should do EMS body sculpting
- EMS body sculpting cannot be done on those with medical implants containing metals, such as pacemakers with screws and plates
- Those with a copper IUD should also avoid EMS body sculpting treatments
If you’re at all unsure or uncomfortable, speak to your practitioner about all medical concerns before beginning treatment!
Skincare Benefits of EMS Body Sculpting
EMS body sculpting is a fantastic treatment option for those looking to build a sleeker and more toned physique. But, toned and strong muscles aren’t the only thing to look forward to. Not only is the treatment safe, effective, and FDA-approved but it comes with so many benefits.
Some of the more obvious perks of EMS body sculpting include:
- Get rid of fat and increase muscle tone
- Target every single muscle in the treatment area
- Target muscles that a regular workout can’t exercise
- Get dramatic and lasting results without surgery
- Get the results of an intense workout program through a relaxing spa experience
- Improve the appearance of your problem areas
While crafting your dream body may be the goal of EMS body sculpting, you’ll enjoy many other benefits for your skin and overall health and appearance:
- While the muscles become tighter and more toned, so does your skin
- Skin’s elasticity is improved
- Increase collagen production for healthier, plumper skin
- Reduce the appearance of scars, wrinkles, and stretch marks
- Achieve a smoother, firmer complexion
EMS to Tone the Face
While all of this applies to the skin in and around the EMS treatment area, you can also use EMS technology specifically for skincare concerns on your face! EMS therapy is just as safe and effective on the face, and it offers many benefits:
- Improved circulation. Better blood flow beneath the skin’s surface not only keeps the cells healthy but gives you a beautiful, natural glow
- EMS rejuvenates the skin, brightening your complexion and giving it a more youthful appearance
- It naturally lifts and sculpts the face. Just like it tones the rest of your body, it tones your facial muscles as well. This offers a lifted appearance with the natural contours of your face becoming more apparent
- Stronger facial muscles offer anti-aging effects and help keep your skin more youthful going forward
EMS Body Sculpting Aftercare
EMS body sculpting is non-invasive and minimally uncomfortable, so no real recovery time is needed. You may return to all regular activities immediately after treatment. At most, you may feel some mild muscle soreness for up to a few days. There are just a few steps you can take to ensure you feel your best and get the most out of your treatment:
- Drink lots of water immediately after treatment. This enhances lymph drainage, which flushes out fat and toxins. You’ll also need to rehydrate if you broke a sweat during treatment.
- Adjust the intensity of any workouts and activities as needed, should you feel any soreness. It’s best to avoid overexertion post-treatment.
- Your overall lifestyle significantly impacts the quality and longevity of your results. A low-activity routine is not recommended if you wish to maintain peak results for the longest time possible.
Get the Body of Your Dreams
EMS body sculpting is the perfect complement to an active lifestyle and regular workout routine. It gets into the nooks and crannies of your muscles, building strength and endurance where you never thought possible.
