When starting cavitation or EMS sculpting, it’s important to follow the right treatment protocol to achieve optimal results. Both treatments require multiple sessions, but they have different approaches in terms of frequency, duration, and post-care.
Cavitation Treatment Protocol
Cavitation uses ultrasound waves to break down fat cells, which are then processed and eliminated by the body. Because this is a gradual process, treatments need to be spaced out properly to allow the body time to flush out the fat.
- Session Length: 30 to 60 minutes per treatment area
- Frequency: 1 to 2 times per week
- Number of Sessions: 6 to 12 sessions, depending on the amount of fat to be reduced
- Post-Treatment Care: Drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol, and engage in light physical activity to help the body process the fat
Most clients start noticing results after 3 to 4 sessions, but full results become visible after 6 to 12 sessions, as the body naturally eliminates the fat over time.
EMS Sculpting Treatment Protocol
EMS sculpting stimulates muscle contractions to build and tone muscles while also reducing fat. Since muscles respond quickly to intense contractions, results tend to appear faster compared to cavitation.
- Session Length: 30 minutes per treatment area
- Frequency: 2 times per week
- Number of Sessions: 4 to 8 sessions for visible results, with maintenance sessions recommended
- Post-Treatment Care: Stay hydrated and stretch to reduce muscle soreness
Unlike cavitation, EMS sculpting doesn’t require the body to flush out fat cells. Instead, it works by increasing muscle mass, leading to a faster metabolism and improved body definition.
Combining Treatments for Maximum Results
Since cavitation focuses on fat reduction and EMS sculpting enhances muscle tone, they can be used together for a more sculpted, toned appearance. Many clients opt for cavitation first to remove stubborn fat, followed by EMS sculpting to tighten and shape their muscles.
If you’re unsure which treatment is best for your goals, a personalized consultation can help create the right plan for you.
