Emsculpt Neo is a breakthrough, first-of-its-kind treatment in non-invasive body shaping. It’s the first and only technology that uses Radio Frequency and HIFEM+ to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat and build muscle mass non-invasively.
This treatment allows us to target specific areas to body sculpt, both muscle tone and muscle, and remove fat at the same time, achieving an average of 25% increase in muscle and a 30% loss in fat in your treated areas, with no recovery time.
Indications That Emsculpt Neo May Be Right for You:
Areas You Can Treat With Emsculpt Neo:
25% more muscle on average
20,000 muscle contractions per 30-minute treatment
During a usual workout, we only ever use 35% of our muscle because we’ve evolved for endurance. During your usual workouts, your brain sends a signal to the muscle fibres motor neuron junction instructing it to lift or push or whatever the required movement is and effectively fires an electrical impulse into 35% of your muscle fibres to get it to perform this action.
The Emsculpt Neo overrides this limitation and uses 100% of your muscle fibres. When you put a magnetic field on the desired muscle, as the Emsculpt Neo does, it polarises and depolarises the neuron junction and fires the electrical impulse; switching it on and off in 100% of your muscle fibres at a pre-set rate of frequency and length. This is perfectly safe to do, but something that we cannot achieve on our own as humans.
This one single treatment is ideal for those of us working out to improve specific body parts because with the treatment you truly isolate and target the area. This is something you can’t do when you’re working out. For example, if you wanted to work on your bottom to lift and tone the muscles there is simply no way of doing this type of exercise without engaging your thigh muscles also; this inevitably means that you’re likely to end up with thicker thighs, which some people want to avoid.
From a strength perspective, Emsculpt Neo allows you to improve the strength of a muscle building a body area before you even embark on a training regime; this is ideal if you have a weakness or are coming back from a muscular injury. In fact, the Emsculpt technology was originally designed with physiotherapists in mind, to help people quickly come back and rebuild from a muscular injury, so we know that it is going to tone your muscles in a controlled and safe way.
The Emsculpt Neo is so safe it is used to improve abdominal separation, also known as diastasis recti, often experienced by post-partum women. One published clinical study showed an 18% improvement in this condition after a course of treatment.
With this level of muscle activity, there is often the question about discomfort following the treatment. Ordinarily, if you could do the equivalent workout that the Emsculpt Neo offers, you would be very uncomfortable the next day. 20,000 sit-ups using 100% of your ab muscles have got to hurt! This is not a problem following the Emsculpt Neo procedure. This is because there’s a cycle during the treatment that allows your blood to be flushed through the muscles, as it would do during a lengthy warm-down session. This action flushes out the build-up of lactic acid from the muscles, which is ordinarily the cause of discomfort post-workout.
The Emsculpt technology is used by professional athletes such as Amir Khan (Boxing); Rob Gronkowski (NFL); Marion Bartoli (Tennis) Saquon Barkley (NFL), Francisco Cervelli (Baseball); Chris Hogan (NFL); the US women’s soccer team; Olympians; and golf pros.
30% less fat on average
The Emsculpt Neo removes fat in two different ways, at the same time. As with the previous generation of this device, ‘Emsculpt’, the intense muscle contractions cause the fat cells in the treatment area to degenerate.
With the Emsculpt Neo, you have the welcomed addition of radiofrequency technology to reduce fat too; this is targeted at your subcutaneous fat, safely and comfortably warming the fat cells to the correct temperature to damage them; this brings about the death of your treated fat cells without damaging the surrounding tissues. As with other fat removal treatments, your body naturally, gradually, and safely removes the degenerated fat cells via your waste; much as it would do a high-fat meal.
The scientists behind the Emsculpt Neo have likened the results from a course of treatment to 12 to 16 weeks of HIIT training, without the cardiovascular benefits of course.
The fat removal aspect of this treatment is entirely tailored to your needs. For example, you may not desire or require a large amount of fat removal in your chosen area and your primary goal is to improve the muscle. In this case, we would treat you on different fat removal settings to a client who requires and desires both muscle growth and toning and fat removal equally.
This tailored approach to body sculpting is one of the reasons why celebrities such as Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian, and Lisa Renna have all raved about the results they’ve achieved with the Emsculpt technology.
What Is In This Blog:
Emsculpt Neo uses radio frequency and HIFEM+ technology and Coolsculpt uses cryolipolysis.
Coolsculpt is a leading fat-freezing device that suggests that you can remove up to 23% of fat in the treated area. With the Emsculpt Neo, the average person has a 30% reduction in fat. However, Emsculpt Neo doesn’t just remove fat, it tones and builds muscle in the treatment area at the same time.
The Esmsculpt Neo stats are 30% less fat and 25% more muscle in the treated area, on average and its efficacy and safety is backup by numerous clinical studies and papers.
In short, Emscuplt Neo results in more fat reduction and more muscle growth compared to any single gold-standard treatment.
If you’re unfamiliar with Slendertone, it’s an at-home device that helps you tone your muscles using electrical muscle stimulation. This is an entirely different type of technology from Emsculpt Neo; there is no comparison between the difference in technology and the results that can be achieved. For completeness, our understanding of the two different technologies is this:
Slendertone says they can deliver 200 muscle contractions in a 30-minute session and that you can start to see results in 4 weeks. You can buy Slendertone at-home devices that treat either your bum, abs, or arms. By comparison, the Emsculpt Neo delivers 20,000 muscle contractions in a 30-minute session, engaging 100% of your muscle fibre, not just the usual 35% that you ordinarily use.
Emsculpt Neo not only allows you to tone a specific area, but it also allows you to reduce fat in the area which Slendertone cannot.
This treatment is not a replacement for exercise and diet because if you have this treatment and then overeat you will put weight on, as you normally would. Emsculpt Neo will not give you cardiovascular benefits which some exercises do.
Emsculpt Neo can boost or accelerate your results achieved in the gym, much like pro athletes do. Or if you can’t or don’t want to go to the gym for whatever reason this is a brilliant alternative to improve your muscular strength and remove targeted fat pockets.
We’ll always advocate going to the gym because of the cardiovascular health benefits, however, Emsculpt Neo can boost or accelerate your results achieved in the gym, much like pro athletes do. Or if you can’t or don’t want to go to the gym for whatever reason this is a brilliant alternative to improve your muscular strength and remove targeted fat pockets.
Additionally, it’s a good tool for isolating an area such as your bottom and working without working other muscles, which you have to do with traditional exercise; this can make undesired muscles bulkier, such as your thighs when working your glutes.
If you embarked on a strict training and eating regime you could theoretically achieve similar results as this 4-week treatment course; in fact, the scientists behind this treatment have likened it to 12-16 weeks of HIIT training (without the cardio benefits to your heart and lungs of course), so if you already work out this is an accelerator for both your muscle strength and aesthetic appearance.
You do not have to be fit or a gym bunny to benefit from the treatment. You can have a BMI of up to 35 to have this treatment.
Yes, Emsculpt Neo is proven to safely help improve abdominal splits.
We can treat one area at a time, so if you wanted your bottom and biceps treated, we would treat your bottom fully and then your arms, for example.
Each body area would be a full treatment and you can have more than one area treated in a day.
You could. There is no physiological reason why you couldn’t have another course after 3 months. We would review you at 3 months and assess your results at that point.
Yes, as long as you do not have one of the very few contraindications.
It’s ideal because it can help improve an abdominal separation of the muscles as well as aesthetically improve the area with fat removal and muscle toning.
Yes, Emsculpt Neo is ideal for those stubborn areas which are difficult to isolate and target by diet and exercise alone. The treatment is tailored to you.
No, any adult can have the treatment. It’s a treatment that truly anyone can benefit from; be it an athlete at the peak of fitness through to a menopausal lady who wants to feel and look good in her clothes. In fact, those of us who are peri-menopausal and menopausal can really benefit from preserving muscle.
A BMI of 30 and above is considered obese. It’s recommended that we treat those with a BMI of up to 35.
