My starting weight was 183 and current weight is 154. I plan on losing 20-25more pounds by april 2025. My stomach hangs (apron belly ?) I have no prior pregnancies. I am concerned that as I am losing weight my stomach won’t lift. Would I benefit from emsculpt ? Would it make my core stronger and allow my stomach to be lifted as I lose the weight?

Answer: Weight loss and skin sagging With weight loss, there is loss of fat and support of the skin leading to sagging and hanging. Emsculpt series helps to tightens the muscles deeper to the skin. Skin tightening devices have limitations in abdominal apron. The best option is usually an abdominoplasty with removing the extra skin and tightening the muscle. Many patients want to defer their tummy tuck until pregnancies are complete, but with massive weight loss some decide to proceed prior.

Answer: How to treat loose skin Congratulations on your weigh loss journey! We have Emsculpt Neo (and Emsculpt before that) as well as Coolsculpting. Both modalities can help with body contouring and are effective for various body types, but I question if either is right for you. Emsculpt will improve muscle tone and may provide some skin retraction. It will likely make you feel stronger and may help keep you motivated. I'm not sure it's going to address your "apron". If you are open to surgical options, a tummy tuck would likely give you the best results.
