How to Target Stubborn Fat Areas Without Surgery

You’ve been dieting faithfully, but you still have stubborn areas of fat that just won’t disappear, no matter how hard you work. At the same time, you’ve been working out, but you still don’t see the increase in muscle size and tone that you want.

What if there was a way to treat both of these concerns at the same time — without invasive surgery or extensive workout plans?

At Beverly Hills Allergy in Beverly Hills and Glendale, California, Dr. Sherwin Hariri and our team can help you target stubborn fat areas while building muscle tone at the same time with EMSCULPT NEO® Body Contouring.

Here’s how it works.

What is EMSCULPT NEO body contouring?

EMSCULPT NEO is a revolutionary new method to burn fat and build muscle tone at the same time. It’s used to target stubborn fat deposits and work out muscles in your abdomen, buttocks, thighs, calves, and arms.

To accomplish this goal, EMSCULPT NEO uses two technologies simultaneously: radiofrequency energy (RF) and high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology (HIFEM). The EMSCULPT device is placed on your target area, where it emits both forms of energy at the same time.

The RF energy quickly heats your body, raising your muscle temperature by several degrees. This heat prepares your muscles for stress, just like a warm-up activity before a workout. In less than four minutes, the temperature in your subcutaneous fat cells becomes high enough to cause apoptosis, or death of the cells. Over time, your body will eliminate these cells naturally.

At the same time, the HIFEM energy causes thousands of muscle contractions that occur at an intensity you can’t achieve with a workout on your own. This stress on your muscles forces them to tighten and adapt, creating stronger, leaner muscle fibers and cells. 

The entire treatment takes about 30 minutes and results in a 30% decrease in fat in your targeted area, along with a 25% increase in muscle mass.

Who is a good candidate for EMSCULPT NEO body contouring?

Most people who can benefit from less fat and more muscle are good candidates for EMSCULPT NEO body contouring. Your BMI should be 30 or under, and you shouldn’t be pregnant or breastfeeding.

EMSCULPT NEO is great for areas of small fat; if you have areas of severe loose skin or large areas of fat, you should look for other treatment options.

You don’t need any special preparation and there’s no downtime afterward. Most people will benefit from up to four treatments spaced 5 to 7 days apart.
