F.A.Q.
(01)
What exactly is MYOslim and how does it work?
MYOslim is an advanced, non-invasive body contouring device that uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology. This technology induces thousands of powerful, "supramaximal" muscle contractions in the targeted area, at an intensity that is impossible to achieve through voluntary exercise. This intense activity forces the muscle tissue to remodel and build strength, while also triggering a metabolic reaction that breaks down and destroys fat cells.
(02)
What does the MYOslim treatment feel like? Is it painful?
The treatment feels like an intensive workout for the targeted muscle group. You will feel strong, deep muscle contractions, but it should not be painful. The intensity is gradually increased by the operator according to your comfort level. No anesthesia or numbing cream is required.
(03)
How long is a single treatment session?
A standard MYOslim treatment session typically lasts for 30 minutes per treatment area.
(04)
How many treatments will I need to see results?
A typical treatment plan consists of 4 to 6 sessions, scheduled 2-3 days apart over a period of two to three weeks. However, the exact number of sessions will be tailored to your specific body goals during your consultation.
(05)
Is there any downtime after a MYOslim treatment?
There is absolutely no downtime with MYOslim. You can resume all your normal daily activities, including going to the gym, immediately after your session. Some patients may experience mild muscle soreness, similar to what you might feel after a strenuous workout, but this typically subsides within 24-48 hours.
(06)
When will I see results and how long do they last?
Many patients report feeling a tangible improvement right after the first session. Visible results, such as a more toned appearance and fat reduction, usually become noticeable two to four weeks after the last session. These results can continue to improve for several weeks following the treatments. The fat cells that are eliminated are gone permanently, but maintaining the muscle tone is best achieved through a healthy lifestyle and maintenance sessions as recommended.
(07)
Which areas of the body can be treated with MYOslim?
MYOslim is highly effective for toning and sculpting various areas of the body. The most commonly treated areas include the abdomen (for muscle definition), buttocks (for a non-invasive lift), arms (biceps and triceps), thighs, and calves.
(08)
Who is the ideal candidate for MYOslim?
The ideal candidate is someone who is already leading a relatively healthy and active lifestyle but is looking to improve muscle definition and reduce stubborn pockets of fat in specific areas. It is a body sculpting and muscle-building tool, not a weight-loss solution for individuals who are significantly overweight.
(09)
Are there any side effects? Is the procedure safe?
The MYOslim procedure is very safe. The HIFEM technology has been clinically tested for safety and efficacy through numerous studies. The most common side effect is temporary muscle soreness in the treated area. There are no other significant side effects reported.
(10)
How is MYOslim different from fat-freezing or liposuction?
MYOslim is unique because it is the only procedure that simultaneously builds muscle while also reducing fat. Fat-freezing treatments (cryolipolysis) and liposuction only target fat removal and do not affect the underlying muscle structure. Furthermore, unlike liposuction which is a surgical procedure, MYOslim is completely non-invasive and requires no downtime.
(11)
Do I need to do anything to prepare for the treatment or to maintain the results?
There is no special preparation required before a MYOslim session. To maintain and enhance your results after completing your treatment series, we recommend adhering to a healthy diet and consistent exercise routine. Periodic maintenance treatments can also be very effective for preserving your sculpted physique.
