Your Emsculpt Neo questions, answered by board-certified physicians
We love to repeat this amazing fact: A single 30-minute Emsculpt Neo body sculpting treatment at our medical spa is the equivalent of doing about 24,000 sit-ups! While this is incredible news for your abs and booty, this doesn’t mean that Emsculpt is the equivalent of a run or a gym workout. To help clarify some common questions we hear about Emsculpt Neo, we’re answering this and other frequently asked questions below.
Which parts of the body can be treated with Emsculpt Neo?
Emsculpt Neo helps improve muscle tone, contour, and definition in areas including:
- Abdomen
- Buttocks
- Thighs
- Calves
- Arms
- Flanks
If you already eat well and exercise, Emsculpt is an excellent option to enhance targeted areas and take your physique to the next level!
How many Emsculpt Neo sessions are needed to see results?
Most patients benefit from a series of 4-6 treatments, spaced about three to seven days apart, to achieve optimal outcomes. However, you may require additional sessions depending on your starting point and your goals. Visible results are often noticeable within two to four weeks after your final session, with ongoing improvement over several months as your body continues to eliminate fat cells and build muscle.
Can Emsculpt Neo give me the same results as working out?
While Emsculpt Neo can significantly enhance your muscle tone and reduce fat in specific, treated areas, it is not a direct replacement for regular exercise or a healthy lifestyle. Emsculpt Neo uses both high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to induce powerful muscle contractions that are not achievable through voluntary exercise alone, as well as radiofrequency energy to tighten and tone,resulting in increased muscle mass and fat reduction where applied.
Think of your diet and exercise routine as your first step in achieving your ideal physique, and Emsculpt Neo as the tool for spot-reducing, refining, and toning. Maintaining a consistent workout routine and healthy diet is still important for overall fitness and long-term results. Emsculpt Neo is best used as a complementary treatment to enhance the effects of a regular workout regimen.
Is there any downtime after an Emsculpt Neo treatment?
Emsculpt Neo requires no downtime, making it well-suited to a busy schedule. You can immediately return to your daily activities, including work and exercise, without any restrictions. You might experience mild muscle soreness, similar to the feeling after an intense workout, but this typically resolves within a day or two.
What does Emsculpt Neo feel like during treatment?
During an Emsculpt Neo treatment, you will feel heat and strong muscle contractions in the targeted area. These contractions are similar to the feeling of an intense workout, but are more concentrated and repetitive than what you could achieve on your own. The heat feels similar to a hot stone massage.
The sensation is not painful, and most patients find that they get used to it quickly. The intensity can be adjusted throughout the session to your comfort level, allowing you to gradually adapt.
Is Emsculpt Neo safe for everyone?
Emsculpt Neo is generally considered safe if you are healthy; you are looking to improve muscle tone and reduce fat in specific areas; you are not pregnant; and you do not have certain medical conditions, such as metal implants, pacemakers, or other electronic implants, since the treatment involves electromagnetic energy. A thorough consultation with one of our highly qualified, caring providers is the best way to determine if Emsculpt Neo is safe and appropriate for you.

Can Emsculpt Neo help with diastasis recti after pregnancy?
Yes, Emsculpt Neo can be a helpful treatment for mild cases of diastasis recti—a condition in which the abdominal muscles separate during pregnancy, leaving a gap along the midline of the abdomen. Emsculpt Neo can help strengthen and tone the abdominal muscles, potentially reducing symptoms of diastasis recti.
However, the effectiveness of Emsculpt Neo for this condition can vary from person to person, and it is best to consult with one of our board-certified physicians to determine if Emsculpt Neo is the right treatment for your specific needs.
Is Emsculpt Neo suitable for men and women?
Emsculpt Neo is suitable for both men and women who are looking to improve muscle tone and reduce fat in specific areas of the body. Treatment areas may differ slightly based on individual goals—men are often aiming for a more chiseled abdomen, while women may be focused on achieving lifted buttocks—yet the technology works effectively for everyone.
