Question

Hello, i had a bbl, lipo and argon plasma 7 weeks ago. Ive had a huge transformation but as my surgeon said i had visceral fat i wont be completely flat. Its bothering me and theyve advised me get sessions of either emsculpt or G5 sessions. Am i too soon to start emsculpt? My stomach feels hard so it feels like its muscle and not fat.

Thank you for your question. Emsculpt may be performed on the abdomen after lipo once your doctor has released you for physical activity and additional treatment. Emsculpt will help to rebuild the muscle and help with any additional fat in the area.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

At 7 weeks from surgery, you can start EMSculpt treatments now if you wish. It does work nicely to help tone and tighten your abdominal muscles.

Mats Hagstrom, MD (license on probation) · Answer

Visceral fat can only be reduced with weight loss. Muscle strengthening weather done using a device or exercising on your own isn’t going to reduce your visceral fat content. I suggest focusing your reference on weight loss and consider taking pictures of different weight points, so you know the impact that weight has on the appearance of your abdomen. Sometimes even smile, fluctuations and wait, and have a substantial impact on individuals who have a higher percentage of visceral fat.
Best, 
 Mats Hagstrom MD
