“We always pride ourselves in offering our clients the most innovative and safe aesthetic treatments in the industry. We are thrilled to add Emsculpt to our list of non-surgical treatments that can help patients reach the next level of aesthetics,” said Dr. Daniel Careaga, a double-board certified plastic surgeon. “We have no doubt this will be the latest craze in Miami.”

Cleared by the Food and Drug Administration, Emsculpt is an effective treatment that is non-radiating, non-thermal as well as non-ionizing, and requires no downtime. Patients may feel sore after sessions, given that the muscles are being contracted, similar to that of a workout. Research also shows that there are additional health benefits to patients, including strengthening of the core area, improves posture, and diminishes lower back pain.

Emsculpt’s technology penetrates through the skin to impact fat as well as muscle tissues. Upon penetration, the energy induces 20,000 supramaximal muscle contractions that are accompanied by a rapid metabolic reaction in fat cells to not only strengthen and build muscle but also reduce fat. This is the only technology that builds muscle and burns fat simultaneously while leaving the surrounding tissues unaffected.

For optimal results, CPS recommends four 30-minute treatment sessions over the course of a two-week period. Best results can be seen after 3-months with continued improvement over a 6-month time frame. Emsculpt treatment tone and strengthen muscles and is intended to accompany an active, healthy lifestyle — it is not a substitute for healthy eating or regular exercise.
