Brides who want to really get snatched before the big day can now look to non-invasive yet high-yield procedures for that final push. Emsculpt NEO, an FDA-approved breakthrough body-shaping treatment, uses radiofrequency waves and high-intensity electromagnetic energies to both reduce fat and build muscle at the same time — and is the only non-invasive treatment in the world that does so. The clincher: It only takes half an hour — and it's virtually painless.
This two-fold benefit of Emsculpt NEO has made it super popular among patients; aside from the abs and butt, it can even use smaller applicators to tone the biceps, triceps, and calves.
Likened to the effects of doing 20,000 situps in one session (yup!), Dr. Bruce Katz, MD, director of New York's JUVA Skin and Laser Center, was one of the investigators and pioneers of its clinical trials and worldwide launch in October 2020.
“I’ve seen Emsculpt NEO build more muscle and reduce more fat than any other technology,” he says. “Downtime is minimal, and results can last upward of six months. They are 30-minute sessions that can be done repeatedly over the course of weeks or months to shape and tone.” He suggests brides schedule their first session two to three months out from their wedding date.
Sessions are highly tolerable (Emsculpt NEO works by inducing rapid muscle contractions) and require no recovery time. It's priced at $760 per treatment, and patients need four treatments for best results.
