Emsculpt and compression garments - will wearing them after Emsculpt help at all?

Question

Either in end results or speeding along the process? Or would they be problem in some way?

Hello,Thank you for your question. Compression garments are not recommended after the EmSculpt treatment. There is no negative impact, but there also isn't any measurable benefit. Good luck!

Hi LVok,Just like you don't wear compression garments after intensely working out, it is not necessary to wear them after Emsculpt.  There is no swelling though some patients may have minimal soreness of the muscles for a day or two, just like after a great workout at the gym.  Good luck and be well.Dr. P

Compression garments are not needed after an EMsculpt procedure. There is no significant swelling after the treatment. It will feel like an intense work out. There is no downtime. Best wishes.

Thank you for your question, a compression garment will not help much after having this treatment done. Most body tightening treatments require multiple treatments to get the best results but combining RF (venus legacy, exilis ultra, inmode forma/contoura) and shocktherapy (EVIVE, cellutone, z wave) I hope this was helpful. Best, Dr. Emer.

Dear LVok,every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD

The studies have not shown that wearing compression garments will help, so I think you do not need to worry about wearing compression garments. That is the beauty of Emsculpt, you can have the treatment done and go back to your normal lifestyle with eating, working out, and no major alterations need to be made.

Thank you for your question. There is no need to wear a compression garment following Emsculpt as there is no swelling from this procedure and you can resume all of your normal activities immediately. Data was just published from 3 months out from the procedure and should further fat cell loss from the one month out time frame.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.
