I heard Emsculpt builds muscle in addition to melting fat. Can it help build my muscles for me?

Asked By:Tiff928 in New York, NY

I recently lost 80lbs (went from 220 to 140) and was told by my personal trainer at the gym that I need to build muscle to help with my excess skin. Can Emsculpt help me with this? I do not want to get a tummy tuck.
