EmSculpt Neo and the Next Generation of Body Contouring
EmSculpt Neo combines radiofrequency heating with HIFEM+ muscle stimulation in a single session, addressing both fat and muscle in the treated area at once — one of the reasons it's considered a more advanced option within non-surgical body contouring.
How the combined technology works
Radiofrequency raises the temperature of fat cells in the treated area, which can lead to their gradual reduction over the following weeks. At the same time, HIFEM+ energy produces powerful muscle contractions — far more than a typical workout could — which can support muscle tone and definition.
What makes "Neo" different
Earlier EmSculpt devices focused on muscle stimulation alone. Neo adds synchronized radiofrequency, so fat and muscle are addressed in the same session rather than in separate treatments.
What a session feels like
An applicator is secured over the area — commonly the abdomen, glutes, arms or thighs. You will feel deep warmth and strong, rhythmic contractions. Sessions take around 30 minutes, and most people return to their day immediately.
A typical treatment course
A course is commonly four sessions spaced about a week apart, with changes building over the following weeks and maintenance sessions to sustain them.
Who it's designed for
EmSculpt Neo is often used by people who are already active or close to their goals and want to refine tone and shape in specific areas.
A realistic frame
This is a toning and contouring treatment that works alongside a healthy lifestyle — not a replacement for weight loss. Individual results vary, and a consult with the Roots medical team is the right place to start. For full treatment and pricing details, visit our EmSculpt Neo page.
Frequently asked questions
Is EmSculpt the same as weight loss?
No. EmSculpt Neo is a toning and contouring treatment for specific areas. It is designed to work alongside a healthy lifestyle, not to replace weight loss.
How many sessions are typical?
A course is commonly four sessions spaced about a week apart, with maintenance sessions afterward. Your provider will tailor the plan to you.
Is it painful?
Most people describe it as intense rather than painful — strong muscle contractions with a deep warmth. Intensity can be adjusted during the session.
Who shouldn't get EmSculpt?
It is generally not suitable during pregnancy, or for people with certain metal or electronic implants such as pacemakers, among other considerations. The Roots medical team reviews your health history before treatment.
