What Is Muscle Toning?
EmSculpt muscle toning is a non-invasive device that induces targeted muscles to undergo 20,000 supramaximal contractions in 30 minutes. Supramaximal contractions are similar to those achieved during weight training, and one session is equivalent to performing 20,000 squats, bicep curls, or other exercises. These contractions are generated using a paddle placed on the key muscles while the user remains inactive.
With 2 treatments a week for 2 weeks, FDA-cleared EmSculpt is a body sculpting treatment that increases muscle mass by enlarging existing muscles and stimulating the growth of new muscle fibers. It also targets stubborn fat pockets and builds the muscles beneath with minimal discomfort. Most patients experience slightly sore muscles following an EmSculpt session.
EmSculpt provides quick results without requiring physical effort and is a safer, more efficient option. Weight training can pose risks where improper techniques may lead to strains or sprains that require weeks to heal, physical therapy, or even surgery.
EmSculpt is a safe and effective treatment for addressing stubborn fat pockets and building muscle mass in the:
- Abdomen
- Buttocks
- Arms
- Calves
- Thighs
Although EmSculpt is not designed primarily for weight loss, it can help reduce stubborn fat deposits while enhancing lean muscle mass.
What Happens During an EmSculpt Treatment
During your muscle toning session, the EmSculpt device uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to cause supramaximal muscle contractions. Unlike the voluntary muscle contractions that occur during exercise, supramaximal muscle contractions are more intense and do not allow muscles to relax. During an EmSculpt treatment, these contractions assist in breaking down fat and strengthening muscles, leading to a more defined abdomen, firmer and rounder buttocks, and sculpted legs and arms.
It will take several days or weeks to see results, but there are best practices you can follow to maximize these results. These may include:
- Feed your muscles with 20 to 30 grams of protein following your session
- Stay hydrated before and after treatment
It’s important to expect muscle soreness the day after your EmSculpt muscle toning session. Those who work out regularly, engage in weightlifting, or have a physically demanding job may not be as sore as someone who isn’t as active.

Additionally, it can allow some skin tightening as well. This requires less downtown and is done with several small, minimally invasive incisions.
