Many people are looking into various ways to lose that stubborn fat, but in today’s world, there are so many options. How do you know which is best for you? Today we’re going to talk about two popular treatments in the body contouring world, Coolsculpting, and Emsculpt.
You need to know the difference between Emsculpt and Coolsculpting so that you have an understanding of how each procedure works before deciding which is right for you.
Emsculpt NEO allows you to burn fat and tone muscle at the same time so that you can look your best after just a few procedures. Emsculpt NEO, a treatment available at our Long Island Body Contouring Clinic, is used to strengthen and tone muscles in various areas of the body such as the abs, glutes, thighs, arms, and more.
The best candidates for Emsculpt NEO are patients who are already fit and with low BMI, although anyone, fit or not fit can use and benefit from this treatment. This is an especially helpful procedure for people who want to tone their stomachs. If you are currently not at your goal weight or feel like you have excess fatty volume in an area that needs to be reduced fast, prior to toning the muscle Coolsculpting may be the right procedure to start with, although Coolsculpting does come with its risks.
Coolsculpting is a noninvasive procedure that uses controlled cooling to reduce fat, by freezing it. This is a procedure that can reduce the amount of subcutaneous fat on your body, but it cannot tone your muscles. The procedure is great for people who do not want to go through a full liposuction procedure. It takes about three to five months to see the full results from your Coolsculpting treatment. The procedure is fairly quick, and most patients describe the treatment as “tolerable” as they will feel some discomfort from the cold.
A common area people like to target with Emsculpt NEO is the abdomen, but you can actually firm any part of your body using this procedure. Most people like to use this procedure on their arms and legs, but they can even have muscles on their glutes toned as well as other areas such as claves and thighs. This is a system that was meant to be used on the buttocks, and it is the only non-invasive procedure in the world that can work in this area effectively.
This is very important because a lot of people are looking for something that they think will be most appropriate for them. You do not need to go through an aggressive surgical procedure when you could have a medical tech give you the Emsculpt NEO procedure.
A common area people treat with CoolSculpting is the back of the arms. It will reduce the fatty tissue in the arms. However, CoolSculpting does not build muscle like Emsculpt. In fact, a lot of people, in the past would combine CoolSculpting and Emsculpt to really tone and slim the appearance of the arms. With Emsculpt NEO you can now burn fat and tone the muscles in the arms with a single treatment.
Invigorate Health’s non-surgical body sculpting procedure – Emsculpt NEO – works uniquely by targeting both fat and muscle. The process works by directing radio frequency (RF) and high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to the area, heating up the fat/muscle and forcing the muscles to contract in a way that is not possible through exercise.
You can get Emsculpt NEO treatments that are set up to give you a bit of toning and firming at every appointment. The idea behind this is that you can change your body slowly without any trouble with this noninvasive treatment and you are not forcing your body through an intense surgical procedure that could potentially have a lot of downtime.
The recovery time for one of these procedures is very short, and you can go back to work that same day when you are done.
Aftercare tips for both of these procedures are roughly the same. You need to take some time to rest in the office after the procedure is done, and you need to avoid any heavy contact in these areas.
With Coolsculpting, it is typical to experience temporary redness, soreness, itching, bruising, and numbness in the treated area.
With Emsculpt NEO, most patients have reported some minor soreness at the conclusion of the treatment as being the only side effect.
It is a good idea to report any issues you may be experiencing and to have the office or clinic check on your body and ensure it is recovering well.
Also, keep in mind that you will need to be careful with your body if you are working out. You can go back to your exercise routine, but it is smart to go easy on any areas targeted during the treatment.
