EmSculpt® is the only non-invasive procedure to offer body contouring to women and men.
Current non-invasive body shaping therapies address fat and skin. But what happens when one has less than an inch of pinchable fat, or wants to improve the tone and shape of one’s stomach or buttocks? After all, more than a third of one’s body is comprised of muscle.
The EmSculpt is the only procedure to help both women and men build muscle and burn fat.
In addition, the EmSculpt creates the world’s first non-invasive butt lift procedure.
EmSculpt is anesthesia and needle free!
WHAT IS THE TECHNOLOGY?
It uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM®) technology that induces powerful muscle contractions, not achievable through voluntary contractions. The muscle tissue responds with deep remodeling of its inner structure resulting in muscle building and sculpting.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
It is intended for the improvement of abdominal tone, strengthening of abdominal muscles, development of firmer abdomen, as well as strengthening, toning, and firming of the buttocks. It is painless; it feels like an intensive workout.
IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME?
There is no recovery time. No pre or post treatment preparation or anesthesia is required. It is non-surgical and non-invasive.
WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS?
Tangible results can be seen after the first treatment, while positive results have been reported two to four weeks after the last session, and continue to improve for several weeks following treatments. Four to six sessions are required. Results and patient’s experience may vary.

EmSculpt ® & NEWBEAUTY
EmSculpt is featured three times in New Beauty’s (2,000,000 impressions) Future Guide – The Ultimate Guide to Cosmetic Enhancement.
- Placement 1- is in the liposuction section, where EmSculpt is highlighted as a muscle toning procedure used by doctors as a less risky alternative to the Brazilian Butt Lift.
- Placement 2 – is in the “Fat Blasters To The Rescue” story, where EmSculpt is featured as “The Muscle Builder“. In the piece, Dr. Janet Allenby praises EmSculpt, sharing that “EmSculpt is a game changer because it tones, tightens and strengthens the muscle underneath, which helps sculpt the area.” She notes that she has “medical devices that can freeze and melt away unwanted fat, but the muscle underneath is always left untouched” – further solidifying EmSculpt’s revolutionary ability to simultaneously tone the muscles as well.
- Placement 3 – follows placement 2 in the “B+A Body Contouring Gallery”, which includes impressive before and after photos of the EmSculpt abdominals treatment and buttocks treatment.
Fergie was right! 2008 is so 2000 late. Today, women are standing
strong over several causes – #METOO, #BodyPositivity #GenderPayGap and
more. They want their bodies to be viewed as strong and powerful as
their minds, rather than some twig like Kate Moss. Don’t believe me?

Imagina cuánto tiempo te tomaría hacer 20,000 “sit ups” durante tu próxima rutina de ejercicios. Este número parece casi imposible hasta para el más asiduo amante del gimnasio.
Sin embargo, ejercitar tu cuerpo de esa manera es una realizad gracias a un nuevo tratamiento que acaba de llegar a Puerto Rico, luego de ser aprobado por la Administración Federal de Drogas y Alcohol (FDA por sus siglas en ingles). El EM Sculpt tiene como propósito mejorar el contorno del cuerpo actuando sobre los músculos del abdomen y los glúteos.
“Está dedicado a mejorar la musculatura empezando en área abdominal y glúteos. Es un campo electromagnético, así que mientras estás recibiendo el tratamiento vas a estar contrayendo esos músculos por espacio de 20 minutos. Al cabo de cuatro sesiones va a experimentar un fortalecimiento total en los músculos del centro del cuerpo”, explica el cirujano oculoplástico José Raúl Montes, el primer médico en la isla en ofrecer este tratamiento.
El resultado de este tratamiento es un grupo de músculos más tonificados y, dependiendo de la condición física de la persona puede hasta marcarse.
Montes destaca que es una alternativa para hombres y mujeres a partir de los 20 años, siempre y cuando tenga un índice de masa corporal promedio. Además, el candidato a someterse a EM Sculpt debe tener buenos hábitos alimentarios y de ejercicio, pues el éxito del tratamiento a largo plazo dependerá de que la persona mantenga su peso y condición física.
“Es ideal para pacientes que entiendan que hay que tener buenos hábitos diarios de vida, que uno no es lo que hace una vez en la oficina del médico o una vez al año, uno es lo que hace todos los días. Personas que diariamente se cuidan y que van regularmente al gimnasio van a poder contar con esta tecnología para añadir más fortaleza a esos músculos que también son muy importantes para mantener y mejorar la postura”, añade el médico.
Por un tiempo, Montes se dio a la tarea de buscar una tecnología para mejorar el contorno del cuerpo. A menudo encontraba tratamientos que tenían como fin eliminar la grasa y eso no le satisfacía, pues entiende que esto no siempre es la solución.
“A la grasa siempre se le ha adjudicado todo lo malo y, yo que me dedico a la cirugía en el área de los ojos, le digo a la gente que la grasa es tan importante alrededor de los ojos y de la cara para mantener un aspecto juvenil. ¿Por qué todo lo que hacemos en el cuerpo es eliminar grasa ya sea a base de cirugía o con tecnología?”, cuestiona.
No obstante, aunque el médico señala que hay personas que tienen que bajar el porcentaje de grasa en su organismo, si la persona no tiene exceso de peso y sí una figura curvilínea, lo que debe buscar es la manera de fortalecer sus músculos.
“Esa grasa también le da textura a la piel. Es el mattress que tenemos debajo de la piel. He visto personas que se han hecho liposucción o procedimientos agresivos, que se ven muy bien vestidos pero que la calidad de la piel se afecta un poco o inclusive muestran pérdida de elasticidad.
Hay otras tecnologías que reducen grasa también, pero me interesó más esta tecnología del campo electromagnético que trabaja el músculo”, añade.
En menos de media hora
Para disfrutar los beneficios de EM Sculpt debes pasar primero por una evaluación médica. La persona recibe el tratamiento acostado. Se trata de una descarga electromagnética que hace que el músculo se contraiga.
“Inmediatamente después del tratamiento la persona sigue su rutina normal. He preguntado qué sienten y dicen que la sensación es similar a cuando van al gimnasio y que a la vez los lleva a mantenerse derechos, la postura mejora. El ejercicio se hace de una manera tan eficiente que no se afecta ningún otro músculo”, comparte.
Para que el tratamiento funcione, el paciente debe hacerse por lo menos cuatro sesiones de media hora y separada por dos a tres días. Al cabo de esas cuatro sesiones, se realiza una evaluación de seguimiento con fotos estandarizadas para ver el cambio.
Montes destaca que en las semanas que ha ofrecido el tratamiento, la mayoría que lo ha recibido son hombres.
“Es el primer tratamiento que he tenido en esta oficina que, de entrada, ha atraído a más hombres que mujeres. También ha sido muy popular en la población de millennials. He visto en esta tecnología algo que los atrae porque el resultado es rápido y se relaciona con su estilo de vida”, dice.
Estudios clínicos
El cirujano oculoplástico José Raúl Montes lleva más de dos décadas ejerciendo la medicina, siempre atraído por la investigación y la forma en que los resultados de esta pueden impactar positivamente la vida de sus pacientes.
El también profesor de la escuela de medicina de la Universidad de Puerto Rico ha sido orador local e internacional, compartiendo su experiencia con los profesionales más destacados de la industria, ofreciendo conferencias y capacitaciones en cirugía oculoplástica, estética y rejuvenecimiento facial.
Además, ha sido miembro de varios consejos consultivos para numerosas compañías farmacéuticas, ha supervisado el proceso de introducción de nuevos productos para la aprobación de la FDA en los Estados Unidos.
Algo que a Montes siempre le ha llamado la atención es que Puerto Rico no está incluido en las pruebas de productos que se realizan antes de lanzarlos al mercado.
“Hablé con los CEO y presidentes de compañías, decidieron orientar a las plantillas de los departamentos de investigación para que estuvieran conscientes de que Puerto Rico es parte de Estados Unidos y se rige por las mismas reglas del FDA”, añade.
Sus cuestionamientos tuvieron resultado y este año se encuentra trabajando para tres estudios clínicos de nuevos productos que están pendientes para aprobación de la FDA.
“Para dar el mejor servicio hay que investigar estos productos y tecnologías. Es algo que me apasiona y que es parte de mi compromiso porque represento a Puerto Rico ante la comunidad médica internacional”, dice.
