EmSculpt NEO
What is EMSculpt NEO?
EMSculpt NEO is FDA-approved for the purpose of fat reduction using HIFEM technology. Fat burn and a more toned appearance is achieved through the intense contraction of muscles. Taking fat burning to the next level, EMSculpt NEO combines HIFEM technology with radiofrequency (RF) energy to literally burn fat stores using heat energy. Through each treatment, patients can gain more muscle mass, achieve higher muscle definition, and burn more fat.
Who is a candidate?
EMSculpt NEO is suitable for people who want to lose unwanted pockets of fat while simultaneously strengthening their muscles. This treatment is also ideal for people who have failed to see results from traditional workouts and diets. Ideal candidates for EmSculpt NEO are also people who do not want to undergo surgery or other invasive procedures.

How often can I get treated?
With the EmSculpt NEO treatment which combines both HIFEM and RF, it takes an average of 5 to 10 days for the muscles to recover. In some cases, it may be recommended to receive one treatment a week, although this number can greatly vary from one patient to the next.
How should I prepare for treatment?
Shave or trim hair in the treatment area 2 days prior to the day of treatment. To ensure effective contact and minimize sweat build up, reducing the potential for adverse reactions such as burns.
Be well hydrated prior to and on the day of treatment to ensure a more comfortable treatment.
Do not exercise the treatment muscle group 12 hours prior to treatment time to ensure improved tolerability. Other muscle groups on the body can be exercised in full.
Body piercings must be removed if under or near the treatment area due to avoid potential burns
