Between the 3 new devices, emsculpt, cooltone and trusculpt flex, which is best and most effective? They seem to work very similar, except I don't think cooltone has the fat sparing option for buttocks.
Answer: Which Muscle Stimulating Device is Best for You With several different muscle stimulating devices on the market it can be overwhelming to know which ones actually work and grant results. Two devices I have seen great results with are Emsculpt and truSculpt Flex. Each of these devices are a non-invasive way to stimulate the muscle and provide safe, consistent results. There are a few differences between the two, with time being a bigger one. Each Emsculpt treatment is 30 minutes and only one area can be treated. With Flex, the treatment time is 15 minutes and multiple areas of concern are able to be treated simultaneously. These devices would be recommended to patients who are wanting to see added definition and tone to their muscles. These devices should not be used in place of exercise or as a way to avoid a healthy lifestyle, they simply enhance those areas while increasing muscle mass and endurance. A consultation should be had before ever starting any muscle stimulating device to make sure the patient is a proper candidate for the treatment!

Answer: Emsulpt is the Best Muscle Stimulating Device Hi Maria, We have been using Emsculpt on our patients for the past year with excellent results. Emsculpt has the most clinically proven data on safety and efficiency. Have fun building your muscle and losing some fat in the process. Good luck and be well. Dr. P

Answer: Best muscle stimulator I don't know of any head to head tests or research that can verify that one device is better than another. I do know that the electromagnetic devices create a much more significant contraction since they make every nerve fire, unlike electrical (TENS) units. We have had the EMSculpt machine for over a year and have had extremely high patient satisfaction. It really makes a difference that can be seen and felt.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Quintessa

Answer: Which muscle building device is best in my opinion... Hi, and thank you for your question. As someone who has experienced all three devices and had them demonstrated in my office prior to adding it to my practice, the only one that impressed me was TruSculpt Flex. That is why I added it to my practice. EMSculpt works via electromagnetic stimulation vs. TruSculpt Flex + which is multi-directional elecrical muscle stimulation. The feeling that they produce when stimulating your muscles is different, and both will be beneficial to you. The difference for me as both a patient, and as a doctor providing the treatment to other patients, is the results that I saw. Both my wife and I saw IMMEDIATE results in muscle growth and muscle tone after doing the TruSculpt Flex treatment. We were left unimpressed with the EMSculpt results we obtained. Once we saw that, we knew it was the device we wanted to offer our patients. Ultimately, you will have to try and see what works best for you. Hope you have a better understanding of which is best from our experience. Best of luck,Dr. Edward A AlvarezDiplomate, American Academy of Aesthetic MedicineMember, American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery

Answer: What muscle stimulating device is best? While all these device do stimulate muscle tissue. The TRUSCULPT FLEX is best as able to use MDS. Multidirectional Stimulation meaning full muscle contraction. TRUSCULPT FLEX is able to hold contraction (more isometric) and rapid fire (more isotonic contraction). The other devices use HIGH EMF. Magnetic pulse is a wave so variation of type of contraction is NOT possible with emtone or cooltone. The EMF is also a concern of the World Health Organization (WHO): WHO has been active in the evaluation of health issues raised by exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF) in the frequency range from 0 to 300 GHz. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) evaluated the carcinogenicity of static fields in 2002, and the WHO International EMF Project has recently conducted a thorough health risk assessment of these fields . This is the same reason many folks don't want their house near high power lines. The TRUSCULPT FLEX uses electrical stimulation to get full contraction and vary the contraction without any EMF/ The TRUSCLUPT ID and the VENUS LEGACY both have advantages over the emtone.
