Can I undergo Emsculpt for abdominal muscle toning with a Skyla IUD?

AlondraRRFeb 17, 2023
Hi there, as the question states I want to undergo Emsculpt for abdominal toning but I read you cannot do so with a metal IUD or other prosthetics because it generates heat. I was wondering if Skyla IUD is also contraindicated?

Emsculpt Neo uses both HIFEM and RF for optimal results. 4 - 6 sessions 1 week apart and staying consistent with that regimen is key. Once you've completed the series, returning 3 months post for a treatment to maintenance is important for keeping and possibly enhancing your results.

Yes it is. every patient responds differently to Emsculpt but you should benefit from the treatment even at 60%.

You can start EMSCulpt in about 4-6 weeks after surgery depending upon your tolerance. However, it should not be used to increase muscle mass on your buttocks until at least 3 months after fat grafting.
