Can Emsculpt increase levels of CK-Mb?

Question

We all know that heavy exercise can increase Ck-Mb which is toxic to the body and can induce rhabdomyolysis As Emsculpt makes the body do 20,000 contraction in 30 min which is impossible by natural way, can it lead to risky increase in Ck-Mb? As it is sudden/strong contraction in non athletic normal people I read the trials and nothing was mentioned about the rise or even measurement of CKD pre & post session.

Andrew Campbell, MD · Answer

CK-MB is a cardiac protein, so it will not increase with an EMSculpt. CK-MM is a striated muscle protein that is elevated when someone has rhabdomyolysis. CK-MM does not cause rhabdomyolysis. You are correct that EMSculpt causes 20,000 hypercontractions of the muscles during the 30 minute session, but this is not enough muscle injury to cause any problems with CK-MM. EMSculpt is very safe, and effective.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Quintessa

i'm sure if this was a problem people would not be prescribing the treatment.  I have a feeling the people who developed this technology included fairly intelligent people with a medical background who may have thought of these things.  Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
