Someone who is already in good shape (within 20 pounds of ideal weight) and one who desires better muscle tone and definition. This is not a treatment for weight loss. It's perfect for a person who works out but desires to get rid of stubborn areas of fat. EMSCULPT is popular with both men and women.

A typical EMSCULPT treatment is around 30 minutes. The patient simply lays down on a table and paddles are strapped around the stomach and buttocks. There are also smaller, curved applicators for the calves, thighs and arms. Although it's not painful, the muscle contractions create a tingling sensation and might make you laugh a little! The paddles cause the muscles in the treatment area to rapidly flex and relax, imitating the same effects of a traditional workout, however, with much more defined targeting. 

In 30 minutes, your stomach is performing about 20,000 crunches or squats in 30 minutes. On average, patients who have received EMSCULPT treatments have seen 16% increases in muscles mass and 19% decrease in body fat in the treated area. Like a targeted workout, EMSCULPT is effectively causing your muscle to flex and relax. However, instead of having to do thousands of crunches and squats, the treatment is done for you. 

Out of all of the body-contouring nonsurgical procedures out there, EMSCULPT is probably the most manageable with no downtime. EMSCULPT won't leave any bruises, numbing sensations or redness. Patients can resume their regularly scheduled activities and you'll even be able to wear a bikini immediately after treatment! That said, it is common for patients to report a similar soreness that you would feel after an intense exercise in the muscle group that was treated. 

CoolSculpting, one of the first noninvasive, fat-eliminating treatments introduced to the market. It uses controlled cooling to permanently freeze fat cells on the stomach, under the chin, bra fat and under the buttocks. By contrast, EMSCULPT helps build muscles and tones the body. A common misconception is that they do the same thing or that one replaces the other. While these procedures can be used separately, patients have benefited significantly from using both treatments.

In order to see optimal results, four treatments are recommended and every treatment should be given within a couple of days of each other. Just like you wouldn't go to a gym only once to see results, you can't stop at just one EMSCULPT treatment. Many patients use EMSCULPT to supplement their existing workouts. For example, if you are doing a lot of cardio like running and cycling, you might consider doing EMSCULPT on your glutes between runs/rides to increase your muscle in your legs. 

EMSCULPT spokeswoman Drew Barrymore began treatments to specifically help with conditioning. She explains that her main reason for choosing EMSCULPT was to 'exercise regularly without injury.' On the show 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians,' Kim Kardashian was seen getting an EMSCULPT treatment on her abs. ''It feels like you're doing stomach crunches, but you're not. I'm into it.' Additionally, Robert Gronkowski former Tight End for the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers used EMSCULPT during his brief retirement to stay in shape. 

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 100% of 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. On average the muscle volume increases by 25%.

Please wear comfortable clothing or you will be provided with a change in clothes. The skin must be cleaned and the applicator must be flat directly on the skin. Unlike EMSculpt, the applicators cannot be placed over your clothes. If you have abdominal or nipple piercing or private part piercings, please remove them prior to your treatment. They may get hot from the heat generated during the procedure and then possibly cause burns in the areas where the piercings are.

Remove your watch and belt and any electronic device from your body like your to avoid any of them overheating and/or malfunctioning.

You can keep your earring, necklace and bracelets on but are free to remove them if you wish.

EMSculpt NEO and EMSulpt are not the same laser and do not do the same thing.

If you were a candidate for EMsculpt and have had the treatment done, it does not automatically mean you are a candidate for EMSculpt Neo.  It is highly advisable and strongly recommended to have another expert consultation to determine whether you are a candidate for EMSculpt Neo treatment.

It is always best to consult with your surgeon before doing any treatments in the area where surgery was.

It's impossible to cover all areas and surgeries, but if you are interested in treating the abdominal area and recently had a hernia repair surgery or tummy tuck or appendectomy or c section, it is best to wait 3-6 months after surgery to get this treatment done.

It is advisable to wait about 3 months after your surgery to allow uterus to return to normal size before receiving EMSculpt treatment.  While HIFEM technology does not affect internal muscles like uterus, it's a safe precaution based purely on physiological science to wait about 3 months to avoid any unnecessary if any uterine stimulation. Yes you can get EMSculpt Neo after having a C-section but it should not be applied directly over your scar as it may cause a blister.
