Emsculpt involves using high intensity focused electro-magnetic fields delivered to applicators applied to your butt or even your biceps and triceps. “The electro magnetic fields cause muscle contractions — actually 20,000 contractions in 30 minutes,” explains dermatologist Dr. Bruce Katz, founder of the Juva Skin & Laser Center, which was one of the first dermatology practices in the US to use Emsculpt. “The contractions build new muscles and this creates the effect of a non-surgical butt lift,” Dr. Katz adds. The electromagnetic field- caused contractions can be mildly uncomfortable, but not painful.
