Hi, and thank you for your question. Typically, bladder slings do not have any metal in them. However, the best way to know for sure that there is no metal was used with the bladder sling is to contact the surgeon who performed your procedure for verification. It is likely that there isn’t any metal present, in which case you would potentially be a candidate for EMSCULPT as long as you meet the required criteria deemed by your doctor.
Hi JPD, as a rule of thumb, Emsculpt can be performed as long as there is no metal within 7 cm under the Emsculpt applicator. The more common instruments and devices in the abdominal area are surgical staples and copper IUDs. Regarding bladder slings, there does not appear to be any metal parts to those devices, although I would recommend confirming with your surgeon who implanted the sling.
