Will Emsculpt enlarge muscle?

Hi Offcolor,Emsculpt has been shown to increase muscle mass by 16% and decrease fat by 19% after a series of treamtnes.  Having said that, I would buy the dress size that you would normally get that fits you best.  I believe that the effect of Emsculpt "building muscle" and Emsculpt "toning the abdomen" will offset each other, I doubt that your clothing size will be affected.  Emsculpt patients should be toned, not built into a "Charles Atlas" or Arnold Schwarzenegger body builder type of result.  Have fun at your upcoming occasion, good luck and be well.Dr. P   

EmSculpt is the worlds first and only HIFEM technology , which actually does BOTH: Increases the number of muscle fibers and their size.  It's is designed for muscle toning and sculpting. Not sure if this will help you to decide between your dress sizes. The muscle does not shrink. It becomes tighter and more defined and toned when it increases in size.  To me it sounds like you are looking for decrease in muscle bulk.  Hope this helps. Best, Dr.Avaliani

EMSculpt is a modern and innovative form of muscle strengthening and toning. With the use of high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy, EMSculpting targets your muscles to contract with supramaximal contractions, which cannot take place with voluntary muscle activity such as exercise. Although some people are able to notice a difference immediately, the results tend to reach their final stage within 2 to 6 weeks after the first treatment and improve over a period of six months. It is important to note that EMSculpt is meant to be done along with a good diet and exercise routine. You can continue to get treatments to maintain the results. In addition, how fast you will see results will depend on how quickly your body is able to develop and tone muscles.

With Emsculpt you will get hypertrophy of the abdominal muscle but not certainly with women since we don’t have a lot of testosterone, the muscle will not hypertrophy more than what you could physically achieve with an extremely strong exercise program. I have never seen Emsculpt produce bulky, non attractive muscles in a women and certainly with four sessions that is recommended, at this point that would never be your end result.

Thank you for your question. Emsculpt has been showed to increase both the size and number of muscle fibrils. Individual response will vary depending on gender and hormonal status. Men will generally see greater hypertrophy due to a higher circulating androgen level. Women will generally see a more modest hypertrophy with an increase in muscle tone. The separation of muscle tissue caused by pregnancy, particularly at the mid-line can be decreased in women as well.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.

Thanks for your question! Muscle enhancement can present as either hypertrophy (bigger in size), or increased definition! Much of it depends on what your body does when putting on muscle mass - usually women have a harder time 'bulking' than men. That being said, with clothing size in general, and online clothing purchases in particular there's really no way to advise. Personally I would probably buy both and return the one that didn't fit as well. Best of luck!

Yes Emsculpt will cause enlargement of your muscles with improving tone and firmness.  Additionally Emsculpt causes lipolysis over the treatment area.  On the abdominal wall the rectus muscles and the obliques are engaged and will pull in your waist line and imporve the abdominal tone.
