Evolve Tone is a non-invasive treatment that uses electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) to tone and strengthen muscles. It is FDA-cleared for the treatment of the abdomen and buttocks, and it has been shown to be effective in reducing body fat and cellulite. Evolve Tone is a safe and effective treatment for people of all ages and fitness levels. It is a great option for people who want to improve their muscle tone and strength without spending hours at the gym or going on a starvation diet. Or perhaps you are getting a workout in every day but not seeing the results you are looking for. Evolve Tone can help you with an extra boost of muscle strengthening to firm and tone those hard working muscles!
Maintaining your abdominal muscle strength, tone and position after your tummy tuck has never been easier. We brought the Evolve Tone device into the Tannan Plastic Surgery portfolio precisely for this reason. We saw that our patients needed something extra to help maintain that tight abdomen and smooth surgical results. This device has the added benefit of working on other muscles, too. Read on for more details.
Here are some factors to consider when deciding if Evolve Tone muscle strengthening treatment is right for you.
The Evolve Tone treatment is performed in your plastic surgeon’s office. The treatment area will be cleansed and prepped, then applicators are placed upon the skin. Once the device is adjusted to the appropriate settings and the patient is ready, electrical pulses begin to stimulate the muscles. The treatment typically takes about 30 minutes to complete. Evolve Tone treatments may be done as frequently as once or twice a week. Most people see results after just a few treatments, and the results are cumulative. The more treatments you receive, the more toned and defined your muscles become.
Evolve Tone treatments are generally painless and comfortable. Some people may experience a mild tingling sensation or muscle contractions during the treatment. After the treatment, you may feel some soreness in the muscles that were treated. This is normal and should subside within a few days. You can help to reduce the soreness by drinking plenty of fluids and getting some rest. We recommend that you not get Evolve Tone to your abdomen if you are actively having your menstrual period as the abdominal cramping may be uncomfortable together.
Most people see results from Evolve Tone after just a few treatments. The results are cumulative, so the more treatments you receive, the more toned and defined your muscles will become. After the first few treatments, you should see a noticeable difference in muscle tone and definition. Continued improvement to muscle tone and definition typically come after 6-8 treatments.
It is important to note that results will vary from person to person. Some people may see results more quickly than others. You should maintain a healthy diet and exercise regimen to help you reach your fitness goals and maximize the benefit from Evolve Tone treatments.
Evolve Tone is a muscle strengthening procedure and cost is based on how many body areas we are treating. We tend to treat individual areas in each session. Each individual body area costs $300 per treatment. A minimum of 6 treatments are required to see results in a given area. You can choose to either purchase the minimal 6 treatments for $1750 or you could do the monthly membership, which is $1,000 per month for a minimum of three months. You can come as often as once a week for the body area being treated.
Sometimes we treat multiple body areas to achieve maximal results. For example we might do Evolve Transform to your legs to help tighten your thighs while doing Evolve Tone to the abdomen. The best way to get a precise treatment plan for your body is with a consultation with Dr. Tannan. Our surgical coordinator will give you a cost specific to your goals.
