EMSCULPT neo®

Muscle building and fat reduction in just one treatment

Lose fat without physical exertion and build muscle at the same time – who wouldn’t want that? For many, achieving a flat, muscular stomach, a firm bottom, and defined upper arms and legs once seemed possible only through intense training, and a significant investment of time and hard work. But that is now a thing of the past. EMSCULPT neo® offers a unique way to slim and shape your body through non-invasive treatment. In just one 30-minute session, this procedure reduces fat cells and builds muscle. Both women and men can now quickly and easily move closer to their goal of achieving a body that makes them feel good.

Method

How does EMSCULPT neo® work?

The EMSCULPT neo® procedure combines two advanced treatments into one session: radio frequency energy (RF) and high-intensity electromagnetic energy (HIFEM – High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic). This CE-certified, more advanced successor to the American EMSCULPT procedure builds muscle and simultaneously reduces fat in a truly unique way. During the treatment, radiofrequency energy heats the subcutaneous fat, raising the temperature of the fatty tissue by several degrees. This causes fat cells to break down through a natural process called apoptosis (cell death). Clinical studies show an average reduction of 20-30% in subcutaneous fat in the treated areas (results may vary). Meanwhile, the HIFEM technology induces strong muscle contractions at intensities that would be impossible to achieve through conventional exercise. The electromagnetic field stimulates the growth of both muscle fibers and muscle volume, leading to an average muscle volume increase of 25% (results may vary).

Process

What happens in an EMSCULPT neo® treatment?

First, the patient undresses the area to be treated. The applicator is then placed on the corresponding part of the body and secured with an elastic strap. Once the applicators are in place, the treatment begins automatically. It starts with the activation of radiofrequency energy, which continuously warms the treated area. Simultaneously, the intensity of the muscle contractions gradually increases, providing a combined fat reduction and muscle building effect.

More muscle, less fat

Which areas of the body can be treated with EMSCULPT neo®?

EMSCULPT neo® can be used to reduce fat cells and build muscle on the abdomen, buttocks, legs and arms. The procedure is also an effective option for rectus diastasis, where the left and right abdominal muscles have become separated – as sometimes happens as a result of pregnancy, for example. This combined treatment is suitable for both women and men. It is a revolution in body contouring (body shaping), delivering effective and lasting results in up to ten areas of the body.

  • Upper and lower abdomen
  • Buttocks
  • Inner thigh
  • Outer thigh
  • “Saddlebag” thighs
  • Calves
  • Upper arms (biceps and triceps)
  • Rectus diastasis

Patient satisfaction

How satisfied are our patients with the results?

EMSCULPT neo® is incredibly popular among my patients because it combines two treatments into one efficient 30-minute session. The procedure is quick, effective, non-invasive, and requires no downtime. During the treatment, you will only feel warmth and muscle contractions. The visible initial results, typically seen after about four weeks, are especially appreciated, with some achieving permanent improvements after the final treatment. My patients love how they can work towards their dream body quickly and efficiently, without sweating it out or spending hours at the gym.

Innovation

How long has EMSCULPT neo® been around?

EMSculpt has been around since 2018. The device for non-invasive muscle tightening was developed by BTL Industries, an international manufacturer of high-tech medical devices for aesthetic and physiotherapeutic use.

EMSculpt is an innovative solution for muscle building and fat reduction without surgery. Since its introduction, it has gained tremendous popularity, especially in aesthetic medicine and among those looking for non-surgical methods to achieve body contouring and muscle definition without exercise.

We have been offering this treatment at our practice for several years.

Advantages

What are the advantages of EMSCULPT neo® compared to other muscle tightening methods?

EMSCULPT neo® is a unique non-invasive technology that combines radiofrequency and HIFEM+ energy to reduce fat and build muscle in a short time. This allows you to achieve your desired body shape and contouring without physical exertion.

The procedure is virtually painless, leaving the skin surface intact. During the treatment, you will only feel warmth and muscle contractions, with the intensity adjustable to your preference. Unlike conventional EMS training, which uses a wired suit to deliver stimulation current only to the uppermost muscle layer, EMSCULPT neo® penetrates both the muscle and fat layers holistically with its stimulating electromagnetic field. This ensures effective, noticeable results.

  • Outpatient:

    Treatment of one body region takes just 30 minutes, and patients can immediately return to their everyday activities afterwards. The only restriction is that you must avoid intense strength training of the area to be treated on the day of the session.

  • Non-invasive:

    The treatment does not require surgery, injections or anesthesia.

  • Covers a large area:

    Up to ten body regions and problem areas can be treated using different applicators.

  • Hands-free:

    The treatment is fully automated once the applicators are applied.

  • Fast:

    The short treatment takes just 30 minutes per body area. No preparation is necessary. Afterwards, patients are immediately fit to return to their normal activities without any downtime.

  • Long-lasting:

    As a rule, four to eight sessions are required at weekly intervals. The result is effective and the fat cells are gone for good. The muscles gained should be maintained through regular training.

  • Painless:

    The procedure is virtually painless and the skin surface remains intact. During the treatment, patients only feel the heat and muscle contractions. The intensity of the treatment can be adjusted as desired.

Risks

What are the risks and side effects?

After the treatment, mild redness and swelling in the treated areas may occur, but this typically subsides within a few hours. It’s important to avoid intense strength training of the areas to be treated on the same day. Patients should also ensure they stay well-hydrated before and after the procedure. The EMSCULPT neo® method is not suitable for individuals with a pacemaker, metal implants in the treatment area, a copper IUD, or for those who are pregnant.

My advice

As a doctor, I highly recommend the EMSCULPT neo® method to patients who are body-conscious and want to target specific muscle groups. This treatment is also beneficial for individuals with little to no fitness training, as it helps reduce fat and build muscle in targeted areas. To maintain the results over the long term, regular exercise, a healthy diet, and sufficient protein intake are essential. I encourage all of our patients to embrace a healthy lifestyle to complement the treatment. I’m delighted to offer EMSCULPT neo®, a proven method that helps our patients achieve their ideal shape and boosts their self-confidence. If you have any questions or would like a one-to-one consultation, I’m happy to talk to you in person.
