EMSCULPT IN GENEVA

What is EMSculpt ?

The EMSculpt and Cristal Fit devices use high-intensity electromagnetic stimulation to develop muscle mass and reduce localized fat. The muscle contractions induced by these devices are more frequent and intense than physiological ones. Electromagnetic waves are not harmful to health.

Emsculpt and muscle strengthening in Geneva

Emsculpt is an effective technology for muscle strengthening, body contouring and fat reduction. This non-invasive treatment uses high-intensity

focused electromagnetic waves to induce supramaximal muscle contractions, delivering results comparable to months of intense training. The body is toned, abs are sculpted, and buttocks are lifted.

What are the contraindications of EMSculpt ?

There are certain contraindications to this technique.

  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding.
  • Implanted medical devices : pacemakers, defibrillators, metal implants. Electromagnetic waves may interfere with these devices.
  • Severe medical conditions : in this case, patients should consult a doctor before the EMSculpt session.
  • Skin issues : skin infections, active rashes, or open wounds in the treatment area.
  • History of thrombophlebitis.
  • History of untreated abdominal or inguinal hernias : EMSculpt should be avoided in these specific areas.

What are the indications of EMSculpt ?

EMSculpt is a versatile and effective treatment for anyone looking to enhance muscle definition, reduce localized fat, and achieve a more toned silhouette.

This solution is ideal for :

  • Redefining the silhouette without surgery.
  • Sculpting abs and firming buttocks..
  • Muscle strengthening and toning : EMSculpt is indicated for people who, despite regular physical activity, do not achieve the desired muscle results. The supramaximal contractions induced by EMSculpt result in stronger and more defined muscles.
  • Reduction of localized fat deposits : EMSculpt is ideal for stubborn fat that persists despite physical activity and a healthy diet.
  • Improvement of body definition.
  • Postpartum : EMSculpt is also beneficial postpartum to restore abdominal tone after childbirth.
  • Physical preparation : athletes and fitness enthusiasts can use EMSculpt to enhance physical performance. By strengthening muscles and increasing muscle mass, EMSculpt helps improve strength, endurance, and muscle recovery.
  • Alternative to surgery : a non-surgical alternative to body contouring procedures.

A Cryolipolysis session will be recommended before EMSculpt if the localized fat deposit is too significant.

Which areas are treated by Emsculpt?

Target areas are :

  • Abdominals.
  • Thighs (quadriceps, abductors, and adductors).
  • Buttocks.
  • Arms (biceps, triceps).

How does EMSculpt work ?

Muscles stimulated by high-intensity electromagnetic waves contract 20,000 times during the session (which lasts about thirty minutes). This intense activity causes a restructuring of the muscle tissue. An increase in muscle mass and a reduction in fat cells are observed. Clinical studies published by PUBMED show a 20% increase in muscle and a 30% fat reduction two months after treatment (results vary depending on the patient).

EMSculpt protocol

To achieve optimal and lasting results, a well-defined protocol has been established.

A cycle of four sessions spaced two to three days apart is recommended. This frequency allows the muscles to recover between sessions while maintaining continuous stimulation to maximize muscle gains and fat reduction.
Maintenance sessions every three to six months, depending on individual needs and aesthetic goals, complete the protocol.

How an EMSculpt session works

The treatment begins with a personalized consultation during which Doctor Romano discusses the patient’s aesthetic goals and assesses their specific needs. This step is essential to determine the areas to be treated and to establish a tailored treatment plan.

The patient is comfortably seated on the examination table.
No particular preparation is required. It is not necessary to fully undress.

The applicator is placed on the targeted area.
The applicators emit high-intensity focused electromagnetic waves that penetrate deeply to stimulate muscle contractions.
These contractions are much more intense than those that can be achieved through voluntary exercise, triggering metabolic processes that promote muscle growth and fat destruction.

The intensity of the contractions is selected based on the indication and the patient’s tolerance.
An EMSculpt session lasts about 30 minutes per area.
During this time, the patient feels intense muscle contractions, similar to a high-intensity workout, but without physical effort. These contractions are controlled and followed by relaxation phases to maximize effectiveness while minimizing discomfort.

At the end of the session, the patient can immediately resume their normal activities.

Recommendations for EMSculpt

To optimize the effects of the treatment, it is important to follow certain recommendations before and after each session.

Before the treatment

  • Stay well hydrated during the 24 hours preceding the session.
  • Eat a light meal the day before to avoid any discomfort during the treatment.
  • Do not apply creams or lotions to the treated areas on the day of the session.


After the treatment

  • Continue to stay well hydrated for a week.
  • If the patient experiences slight muscle soreness, a cold compress can be applied to the area.
  • Avoid intense physical activity for 24 hours following the session.
  • Apply a gentle moisturizing cream to the treated areas.

Results before / after EMSculpt

One of the main advantages of EMSculpt is the speed of results. Visible changes begin to appear as early as the second or third session, with continued improvement over the following weeks. The results are long-lasting, especially when combined with a healthy and active lifestyle.

  • Increase in muscle mass : patients observe an average increase of 16% in muscle mass in the treated areas. Muscle growth is fast and effective. The body appears more toned and well defined.
  • Reduction in localized fat : studies show an average reduction of 19% in fat deposits. This reduction is due to the metabolic effect of muscle contractions, which consume energy and break down fat cells.
  • Improvement in muscle definition : particularly visible in the abdomen, buttocks, arms, and thighs.
  • Muscle strengthening : patients feel stronger and more energized.

What are the side effects of EMSculpt ?

EMSculpt treatment is widely appreciated for its safety and effectiveness, but as with any procedure, certain side effects may occur.

  • Muscle soreness similar to that felt after an intense workout.
  • Temporary redness : generally disappears within a few hours.
  • Mild swelling.
  • Bruising.
  • Involuntary muscle contractions during and immediately after the session : they subside quickly.
