EMSCULPT is perfect for those who:

• Are close to their ideal weight but want more definition and tone

• Have stubborn fat areas that haven’t responded to diet and exercise

• Want a non-surgical solution for body sculpting in London

• Are looking to strengthen core muscles or glutes for athletic performance or post-pregnancy recovery

It is not intended for significant weight loss, but for toning and shaping.

It’s quick, comfortable, and requires minimal prep. Here’s what you need to know:

Before Your Appointment

Stay well-hydrated: Drink plenty of water the day before and on the day of your treatment to support fat metabolism and muscle stimulation.

Shave any thick hair: if you have thick hair in the treatment area, this will need to be shaved so that we can ensure the applicators have good contact with the skin. 

Wear comfortable, loose clothing: We will need to expose the treatment area to apply the paddles and ensure good contact for effective treatment.

Medical considerations: please check for any contraindications in our FAQs sections prior to booking a session and complete your consent form prior to attending your appointment. 

No. EMSCULPT is not painful. You’ll feel powerful muscle contractions during the session. Most patients describe it as intense but tolerable—like a workout, but while lying down and fully relaxed.

There may be mild soreness afterward, similar to delayed-onset muscle soreness after exercise.

A typical course involves 4 sessions spaced 5–10 days apart.

We tend to see best results 3 months following treatment 

For best results maintain a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular activity for long-lasting results.

Hydration and consistency are key!

Many begin to notice improved muscle tone and reduced fat after the first couple sessions, with continued improvement over the following weeks.

Peak results are usually seen 3 months after the final session and may continue to develop for several months.

With a healthy lifestyle, results can last 6 months or more. However, periodic maintenance sessions are recommended to preserve muscle tone and fat reduction, especially if physical activity levels vary.

Emsculpt Neo is safe for most people, but there are some important contraindications and medical conditions that may prevent you from having treatment.

EmsculptNEO is not recommended for those who:

Absolute Contraindications (Treatment not allowed)

• Pregnancy, breastfeeding or < 6 weeks postpartum

• Metal implants in or near the treatment area (e.g., metal rods, plates, screws, or joint replacements)

• Electronic implants such as: Pacemakers, Defibrillators, Neurostimulators, Cochlear implants and drug pumps

• Active cancer

• Heart conditions

• Open wounds or skin infections in the treatment area

• Epilepsy

• Graves disease

• Severe varicose veins or vascular conditions in the treatment area

• < 3 months post-surgery

• Hemorrhagic or bleeding conditions

• Contagious skin disease over the treatment area

• copper coil

Relative Contraindications (treatment may be allowed)

• Recent surgery in the treatment area (Will require a letter from medical professional that you are safe to undergo treatment)

• Recent cancer treatment (Will require a letter from medical professional that you are safe to undergo treatment)

• Menstruation (can increase sensitivity or bloating when treating abdomen)

• BMI over 35 (results may be less effective; other treatments may be more appropriate)

EmsculptNEO is not a replacement for exercise but can complement it by accelerating results and targeting muscles that are difficult to isolate. It’s particularly effective for people who want to enhance their fitness routine or are recovering from an injury or surgery.

No. there is no recovery time. You can return to your normal daily activities immediately after treatment and no one will be able to tell that you had the treatment.

Below are studies that evidence how it can increase muscle and reduce fat.

• Radiofrequency heating plus electromagnetic stimulation reduces belly fat and increases muscle

• Retrospective analysis of high-intensity focused electromagnetic procedure synchronized with radiofrequency energy for visceral fat reduction

while there is emerging evidence of its benefits, everyone’s body is different and results do vary.

Both Emsculpt and Emsculpt Neo are non-invasive body contouring treatments that build muscle and improve body shape, but there are key differences in technology and results:

Emsculpt Neo = Fat Reduction + Muscle Building

• Combines radiofrequency (RF) and high-intensity electromagnetic energy (HIFEM) in one session.

• RF heats the fat to trigger apoptosis (fat cell death). 

• HIFEM contracts muscles at a supramaximal level — far beyond what you can achieve in a workout.

• Treats more body types, including those with higher BMI (up to 35).

• Results in:

• Up to 30% fat reduction

• Up to 25% muscle increase

Emsculpt = HIFEM technology only and no RF, so offers no fat reduction
