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.

Answer: EmSculpt for skin tightening Thank you for your question. EmSculpt will help you build muscle, but I would not rely on this as your primary goal for skin tightening. You may see some mild improvements, but with massive weight loss, I don't think this will be sufficient to make you happy. There are other non-surgical or non-incisional procedures that may also help, but you may find that the tummy tuck procedure would give you the best results. To evaluate your options carefully, I would visit a board certified plastic surgeon who can help discuss both surgical and non-surgical approaches to help you with your goals.

Answer: Emsculpt Builds Muscle and Decreases Abdominal Fat Bulges HI Tiff,Emsculpt does build muscle as well as decreasing fat cells in the abdomen in general. It is a great treatment for those patients who do not wish to undergo tummy tuck or butt lift surgery. Individual patients need to be evaluated by their treating physician to determine whether the treatment is indicated for their needs. Most likely you will be a good candidate for the treatment. Choose your treating physician most carefully. Good luck and be well.Dr. P
