RealSelf actual patient comment:

I have had 3 sessions with Emsculpt, spaced about 3 days apart. I gradually moved up in power each session. The 1st session, I was able to get up tp 65% power at the final 5 minutes. The 2nd session, I was able to get to 95% power for the final 5 minutes. The 3rd session I got to 75% power for the final five minutes. Third session was the most painful. Is it worth continuing if I cannot tolerate Emsculpt at 100%? They place it in the middle of my abs. Will it reduce fat on my flanks?
A.Emsculpt treatments should feel intense but never painful. It is not necessary to reach the 100% treatment level during treatment to get good results with Emsculpt. It is still worthwhile for you to continue your treatment program. As long as your muscles are contracting during the treatment, you should see improvement. Good luck and be well.
