Emsculpt NEO in Port St. Lucie, FL Lose the belly. Build the body.

Emsculpt NEO is an FDA-cleared, non-surgical body contouring treatment by BTL. In one 30-minute session, radiofrequency heat destroys fat cells while HIFEM electromagnetic energy causes about 20,000 deep muscle contractions. In manufacturer clinical studies, patients averaged about 30% less fat and 25% more muscle in the treated area. Results vary.

A standard course is 4 sessions of 30 minutes each, spaced 5 to 10 days apart. Many people feel a tighter core after the first one or two sessions, see visible change 2 to 4 weeks after the course, and reach full results about 3 months after the last session.

Most people describe it as an intense workout combined with a warm, hot-stone-like massage. It is intense but not painful, and the intensity is adjusted throughout the session. Mild muscle soreness for 1 to 3 days is common.

No. There are no needles, incisions or anesthesia. Most people return to work, errands or the gym the same day.

Emsculpt NEO is FDA-cleared to stimulate peripheral nerves for relief of chronic intractable, post-traumatic and post-surgical pain, and chronic painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy in the lower extremities. It is also cleared for relaxing muscle spasms, preventing disuse atrophy, muscle re-education and increasing local blood circulation. Strengthening the core and glutes also supports the spine. Pain uses are adjunctive, provider-supervised, and not every patient experiences relief.

Often, yes, after provider review. In clinical trials, roughly a quarter to 40% of the weight lost on GLP-1 medications was lean mass. Emsculpt NEO targets stubborn fat that lingers and builds muscle in the treated area, which makes it a strong add-on to a medical weight-loss plan.

The cost depends on the areas treated and the number of sessions. We offer 12 easy monthly payments, so there is no big upfront cost. Call or text (772) 398-7814 for current pricing. Emsculpt NEO for body sculpting is a cosmetic service and is not covered by insurance.

People with a pacemaker, defibrillator, neurostimulator, drug pump or other electronic implant; metal implants or a copper IUD in or near the treatment area; pregnancy, recent childbirth or breastfeeding; active cancer; or recent surgery, hernia or mesh repair in the area are generally not candidates. Graves’ disease, seizures, heart or lung disease, bleeding disorders and blood thinners require provider review. It is for adults 18 and older. Final candidacy is decided at consultation.

Fat cells destroyed by the treatment are cleared by the body and do not come back. Muscle is maintained with activity and occasional maintenance sessions. Weight gain can still affect results, which is why we look at hormones and metabolism, not just the treated area.

They work differently. CoolSculpting freezes fat only. Emsculpt NEO uses heat to reduce fat and electromagnetic energy to build muscle in the same session, with no suction or freezing. The best option depends on your goals and is discussed at consultation.

Emsculpt NEO is about inches, shape and muscle rather than large scale changes. Because it builds muscle while reducing fat, clothes often fit better even when the scale moves only a little. It is not a weight-loss treatment for obesity; candidates generally have a BMI of 35 or lower.
