If you could lose fat and gain muscle without working out and see results in around 2 months, would you do it? Is it possible? Is there technology that can sculpt the body and make us look better? It’s not a dream. The day has finally arrived!
Emsculpt NEO is a nonsurgical body contouring device that combines high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology with radiofrequency (RF) energy. It strengthens and builds muscles while burning fat at the same time. It can be used to treat the abdomen, buttocks, biceps, triceps, and calves.
How does Emsculpt NEO work?
As mentioned above, Emsculpt NEO uses a combination of RF and HIFEM. The radio frequency is used to heat the muscles and the electromagnetic energy then builds muscles. The heating of the muscles is what causes the reduction of fat in the area being treated. While the HIFEM simultaneously causes thousands of muscle contractions in order to improve strength and muscle tone. Combining these two treatments offers optimal results.
The heating of the muscles from the RF raises their temperature by several degrees. It is similar to what one would do in a warm-up activity before exercising, but much faster. This part of the procedure lasts less than 4 minutes. When the temperature of the fat is increased, apoptosis occurs. This means that fat cells are permanently damaged and are removed from the body.
The HIFEM energy contracts the muscle fibers in the area being treated at intensities that are not possible in regular exercise. This stress forces the muscles to adapt and results in increased growth of muscle fibers and cells.
What can I expect in an Emsculpt NEO session?
During a 30-minute session, an applicator is strapped to the area being treated, the abdomen, for example. The technician then slowly increases the RF heat and the HIFEM pulsing depending on the client’s comfort level. Throughout each session and in future sessions, the applicator will get warmer and the pulses will increase in intensity.
Clients will normally have one session a week for four consecutive weeks. Each session lasts 30 minutes and there is no down-time afterwards. The client can return to work or go to dinner immediately following a session.
What areas can be treated?
According to the brand website, Emsculpt NEO is intended to be used on the “abdomen. It is cleared for improvement of abdominal tone, strengthening of the abdominal muscles and development of firmer abdomen, along with the strengthening, toning and firming of buttocks, thighs and calves, and improvement of muscle tone and firmness for strengthening muscles in the arms.”
What results can be expected?
Studies of the product have shown that clients see an average of 30% fat loss and an increase of 25% in muscle-mass leaving a smaller waistline. The brand boasts a satisfaction rate of 88-100%.
Is Emsculpt NEO too good to be true?
EMSCULPT NEO and the embedded high intensity magnetic field (HIFEM) technology have 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.
