Is Emsculpt Neo Better Than Emsculpt Classic?
You’ve probably heard about Emsculpt Classic and Emsculpt Neo, the non-surgical, non-invasive body sculpting treatments that everyone’s been talking about lately. You’ve heard about the abilities these treatments have to completely reconstruct and reinvigorate your physique, however, you might not know the difference between the two. Is one better than the other?
What’s the Difference?
While Emsculpt Classic and Emsculpt Neo are variations of the same nonsurgical body contouring treatment, they do have some differences that are significant when comparing the two.
Emsculpt Neo is an industry-leading treatment in the combination of fat reduction and muscle-toning. It’s the perfect treatment for someone who wants to sculpt their body with efficiency and who also has a little more fat to burn through.
The Emsculpt Classic also tones and strengthens muscles while reducing stubborn fat but it doesn’t have the same capabilities as the Emsculpt Neo has when it comes to eliminating stubborn fat and toning muscle at an incredible rate.
Which Treatment is Better?
The question of whether one treatment is better than the other really boils down to the fact that the Emsculpt Neo is a newer model that has HIFEM, or High-Intensity Focused Eletro-Magnetic Energy, that is 20% stronger than Emsculpt Classic.
Emsculpt Neo also has the added feature of radio-frequency energy that helps to burn fat. This feature can also be turned off during a procedure that doesn’t need the fat burning energy such as a treatment on the buttocks.
