Summer is here and your post-covid, alcohol-fueled, twinkie-eating, fat-ass disgusting body needs some work.  It’s time to burn those sweatpants and get your beach body on.  One way to kick-start your body makeover is to get rid of targeted unwanted fat and build muscle.  So, which body sculpting device is best for you?  Today we will compare two of the leading (devices); Emsculpt Neo vs Coolsculpt?  

 

WHAT IS EMSCULPT NEO?

EMSCULPT NEO is the newest device from the company BTL, the leader in Body Sculpting.  Their EmSculpt device was released in 2018 and FDA-cleared for building muscle and reducing fat. In 2020, BTL once again changed the rules with the introduction of their the EmSculpt Neo. The device works by utilizing  High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy (HIFEM) to induce supramaximal muscle contractions. One 30-minute abdominal treatment is the equivalent of performing 20,000 crunches.  In addition to HIFEM, the EmSculpt Neo utilizes Radiofrequency energy (RF) to  heat-up and destroy subcutaneous fat cells, tighten the skin and warm the muscles to increase blood flow and provide a more efficient “work-out”.

 

WHAT IS COOLSCULPT?

CoolSculpting, also known as Cryolipolysis, is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive fat reduction treatment. The technology was developed by Zeltiq in 2005.  The CoolSculpting® technology uses controlled cooling of a portion of the fat cells under your skin to target and freeze these cells.  Much like RF technology, the fat cells ultimately die and are eventually “absorbed” by the body’s lymphatic system.

 

WHICH AREAS CAN BE TREATED?

EmSculpt Neo:

Abdomen

Buttocks 

Arms (Biceps/Triceps)

Calves

Thighs/Inner Thighs

Coolsculpt:

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING TREATMENTS?

EMSCULPT NEO:

Protocols for EmSculpt NEO vary slightly depending on the muscles targeted, but generally [involve] four 30-minute treatments, scheduled 5-10 days apart. One 30-minute abdominal session is the equivalent of performing 20,000 crunches. You can feel intense muscle contractions together with a heating sensation in the treated area which is comparable to hot stone massage. Each patient’s results may vary but the best time to see the final results is in 3 months after the last treatment.

 

COOLSCULPT:

Patients describe the treatments as a slight sucking sensation as the applicator adheres to your body. During the procedure you may experience sensations of pulling, tugging, mild pinching, intense cold, tingling, stinging, aching, and cramping at the treatment site. These sensations subside as the area becomes numb. Treatments range from 35-minutes to an hour, and depending on the area being targeted. The number of treatments may vary, but the Ideal candidate for CoolSculpting will need one or two treatments in each area.

 

WHAT DO THE STUDIES SHOW?

EMSCULPT NEO and the embedded high intensity magnetic field (HIFEM) technology has 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. Clinical studies showed on average a 25% Growth in Muscle Volume and 30% Less Fat (on average).

Coolsculpt scientific studies have shown a reduction of fat by up to 20- 25%  and that results are long-lasting.  (Need another sentence or two)
