SensiSlim™

The innovative SensiSlim™, entirely realized by Kazem Aesthetics, is the first body transformation program that allows you to undergo a total body transformation. The SensiSlim™ program consists of the Elipse -swallowable- gastric balloon, CoolSculpting Elite, EmSculpt and NuEra Tight. Previously, MASTERS covered the second step in the program, which is the non-operative Coolsculpting Elite. The third step in the body transformation program is EmSculpt.

EmSculpt

Dr. Kazem says that in preparation for the beach season, treatments that beautify body contours are particularly interesting. With EmSculpt, you build and accentuate muscles. Indeed, if we want to look tighter, it is not only about fat, because the body consists of 30 to 40% muscle tissue. Less fat and more muscle definition are quite possible with this treatment.

Dr. Kazem explains: ''After CoolSculpting, we start tightening the abdomen. This is called EmSculpt and is an electromagnetic therapy lasting about 30 minutes. With this treatment, the abdominal muscles are stimulated by administering impulses. This is equivalent to a workout of up to 20,000 crunches. So this gives a considerable tightening to the said muscles and an increase of twenty to thirty percent in muscle mass.'' EmSculpt provides as many as 20,000 muscle contractions; even with the best intentions at the gym, this is not going to get you there... Dr. Kazem recommends clients who play sports to do EmSculpt once a year and for non-athletes twice a year.

Perfect for summer

Last week, MASTERS sat down with Dr. Kazem to ask whether sun and cosmetic surgery go together. The plastic surgeon indicated that larger surgical procedures are not a good idea because too much sun doesn't help scar tissue recover optimally. So with EmSculpt, you build and accentuate muscle, but another advantage for the summer period is that the treatment is non-operative. This means less downtime, no incisions and scars, as well as a reduced risk of complications. In addition, EmSculpt requires no hospitalization - which makes it even more attractive.
