Minimal Improvement

Minimal Improvement

I decided to do Emsculpt on my abs and butt to give me a boost / shortcut. I thought what fortunate timing as I opted to get this done and completed 8 sessions right before COVID hit, and then I got a sprained ankle. I worked out and ate healthy throughout, but not restrictive, and obviously I had to modify workouts with my ankle injury. My 2 month before/ after showed next to no change, and measurement wise I gained nothing on my butt but gained on my waist. I sent it to 3 friends and none could tell which was before or after. I am not happy with the results. In the same amount of time (those 2 months), I have photographic evidence of improvement in my back definition just from physical fitness that far surpasses my abs and butt. I got more results after I got super restrictive in the way that I eat, but I would’ve gotten those results without Emsculpt. If you’re already working out and eating healthy you likely do NOT need this.

Thanks for your candor. I really wanted it. I've struggled with actually buying the package because it's expensive. Like you, I wanted a short cut boost. Now, I think I can make a better decision. (Like pay less for a diet pre-prepared meal plan, a good one! ) Sorry you didn't get the results.

Did it hurt?
August 26, 2020
It did hurt a bit to be honest, especially the stomach. The butt wasn't so bad. It contracted your muscles so it seizes you up. I was able to answer work emails while it was on the butt, but the stomach I usually just listened to music. It's only 30 minutes per body part.

I wanted to clarify I mis-typed - I did 6 sessions on each body part.

6 sessions. Wow, I really thought it would've done more. Luckily you're in good shape already.

thank you. i am really disappointed. she said i was an ideal candidate because i was in good shape already, but honestly i've seen way more results in my back/ arms and even my legs over the past 6 months which did not receive any emsculpt.

Thanks for the honest review. You really can see a LOT of improvement on your back so great job on that! Please let us know if you notice any changes in your ab/butt area from Emsculpt....supposedly it takes some time to see results?

I will post a follow up! I went back in for my last session. I got a baker's dozen - so I'd used 6 on my abs, 6 on my butt and then went back in for a "maintenance" session for my butt. I noted my dissatisfaction so they are doing another 3 sessions for me complimentary and then told me to wait 3 months this time for the after picture.

Giving it a few more session

I'd noted my unhappiness in a follow-up session, and showed my "progress" pictures. They performed the session and offered me an additional 3 complimentary to see if I have better results. They then suggested I come back after 3 months for the before/ after because the results take longer than they originally told me/ they originally thought.

For more information, I'd originally gotten a baker's dozen, or 13 sessions. I'd already used 6 on my abs and 6 on my butt in February/ March. They'd recommended I leave 1 for a maintenance session to do after 6 months so, and I just did that one.

I will post a follow up 3 months after I complete these next series, which will total another 4 sessions.

Wondering if you had an update? If you didn’t see physical changes how did you feel working out? Any improvements?

I hope you get the results you are looking for. Nothing worst than being excited for such a treatment and it fails you. Do post some before and after pictures.
