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

February 17, 2023
Asked By:AlondraRR in Homestead, Florida

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?

How often to get Emsculpt sessions? Weekly/monthly?
Reza Rod, MD says:

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.

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.
