Emsculpt Neo

body contouring

EMSCULPT NEO is the first and only non-invasive body shaping procedure that provides simultaneous fat elimination and muscle building in a combined 30-minute session.

"I was so excited to find the Emsculpt-Neo because I’m getting multiple treatments in one device. And so for a mom of 3 that is a win-win. Getting the Emsulpt-Neo treatment, it definitely helped build my muscle and melt my fat away. I feel stronger when I do workouts now and I feel like I could be that much more competitive. "

★★★★★

"When I found out about the Emsculpt-Neo, I found out it combined all of those —it was able to melt away the fat and it tone my muscles, all combined in a half hour treatment and I did that 4 times and it combined everything and it was amazing. I feel amazing! I feel like a new me."

★★★★★

The end result is more fat reduction and muscle growth, than any single gold standard product, for less time and less money.

EMSCULPT NEO builds off the legacy of its predecessor, EMSCULPT, by simultaneously emitting both radio frequency and high intensity electromagnetic energies.

Best of all, EMSCULPT NEO has broad appeal as it can treat patients up to BMI 35!

How does it work?

EMSCULPT NEO is based on an applicator simultaneously emitting synchronized RF and HIFEM+ energies.

Due to the radiofrequency heating, the muscle temperature quickly raises by several degrees. This prepares muscles for exposure to stress, similar to what a warm up activity does before any workout. 

In less than 4 minutes, the temperature in subcutaneous fat reaches levels that cause apoptosis, i.e. fat cells are permanently damaged and slowly removed from the body. Clinical studies showed on average a 30% reduction in subcutaneous fat.*

Bypassing the brain limitations, HIFEM+ energy contracts the muscle fibers in the area at intensities that are not achievable during voluntary workout. Extreme stress forces the muscle to adapt resulting in an increase in the number and growth of muscle fibers and cells. Clinical studies* showed on average a 25% growth in muscle volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is EMSCULPT NEO the ONE in body shaping?

EMSCULPT NEO is the first and only non invasive body shaping procedure that provides simultaneous fat elimination and muscle building in a combined 30-minute session.

Can I lose fat and build muscle at the same time?

If you can benefit from less fat and more muscle, EMSCULPT NEO procedure may be a great fit.

What areas can be treated with EMSCULPT NEO?

EMSCULPT NEO can be applied over the abdomen, buttocks, arms & calves.

Does EMSCULPT NEO really work?

YES! EMSCULPT NEO and the embedded high intensity magnetic field (HIFEM) technology has been clinically tested for safety and efficacy through seven clinical studies.* Moreover, 30 scientific publications make HIFEM the most intensively researched body contouring technology since its introduction in 2018.

What does EMSCULPT NEO therapy feel like?

You can feel intense muscle contractions together with a heating sensation in the treated area which is comparable to hot stone massage.
