Can I have Emsculpt after umbilical hernia surgery 1 year ago?

June 12, 2022
Asked By:HuriCain in Jackson, Tennessee

Hi the clinic in my area was uncertain about being able to do EmSculpt on my abdomen due to having Umbilical herrnia surgery last year(Oct 2021). I can see how that would pose a problem, so my 1st question is would i ever be able to do EmSculpt on my abdomen in the future or is that pretty much a no? Also my 2nd question, if EmSculpt is not a possibility for me would EmTone be a viable option? Thanks so much!

Is Emsculpt Neo safe for me? I had my CoolSculpting January 2022
Connie Hiers, MD, FACS says:

EMSculpt, not CoolSculpting, will help your abdominal muscles. I would not waste money on more CoolSculpting treatments since they did not help initially. For excess fat, liposuction works much better. You can still have EMSculpt with a polyp.

Emsculpt touch up after 1 year- would I benefit from a few more sessions? (photos)
Reza Rod, MD says:

I typically recommend my patience to come in for a maintenance treatment once every 3 months. If you've already had 4-6 sessions one year prior, you may have additional session up to 4 at that time.
