Can I get EmSculpt if I have a titanium marker in one breast?

NV928Mar 3, 2022
I have one sesame seed-sized titanium marker in my left breast from a biopsy. I have seen many contradictory answers on whether titanium is safe for EmSculpt. Has there been any update on the safety of having this procedure done on the abdomen with titanium markers in the breast? If titanium breast markers are unsafe for EmSculpt, what are some other alternatives?
