Having a toned physique has always been a little challenging for most of us mere mortals; and even if you manage to achieve one, then maintaining that silhouette is another uphill task. Home workouts can be effective, however, more often than not real results sometimes need a little extra help. Enter Emsculpt body contouring treatment.

Emsculpt is touted to be a ground-breaking technology that addresses excess fat and muscle. In other words, it destroys fat, while at the same time toning up those twitch twitch muscles. Sounds too good to be true huh? Well, I thought the same thing, but as soon as I try it out, I’ll let you all lovely folks know if it works or not.

Moving on, this painless body contouring treatment, which lasts thirty minutes a session, mimics the effects of months of intense workouts to help you (and me) achieve a gym-toned body without the need for a gym (I’ll be damned).

Celebrities’ Secret To a Toned Physique

Emsculpt body contouring treatment, which is FDA approved, goes beyond traditional waist-line reduction and buttock-enhancing (do people still do this?) to deliver lasting and visible results. It is also being considered as the future of body contouring because some A-list celebrities have called it their secret solution to a red carpet-perfect physique. It is even claimed that this treatment is the coveted secret to Kim Kardashian’s hard ab muscles, and Drew Barrymore’s toned post-pregnancy physique.

Experts recommend four sessions within a two-week period for maximum results which can be seen instantly and over time (2-4 weeks post-treatment). With the correct diet and exercise post-treatment, the results can last months to years depending on the fitness level and lifestyle of the individual (for a moment there I thought I’d not need the gym anymore).

The Science Behind Emsculpt Body Contouring Treatment

Emsculpt body contouring treatment uses High-Intensity Focused Electro-Magnetic (HIFEM®) technology to penetrate through the skin, which impacts muscle tissues and belly fat by inducing 20,000 supramaximal muscle contractions per session. The results, obtained after four thirty-minute sessions over a two-week period, is an increase in muscle density and reduction in fat giving treatment recipients more toned and firm appearance. When applied to the butt, the treatment will give you a more lifted and athletic tush, replicating the effects of 20,000 squats in a 30-minute session.

Now, it seems I can finally achieve that toned silhouette without the need for surgery (not that I was planning any) and the associated risks and recovery time. When used on the abdomen, Emsculpt body contouring treatment claims to help you achieve the extra definition of the abdominal muscles and fat reduction resulting in a flatter and more toned appearance.
