How it works

How HIFEM+ rebuilds muscle.

01

Warm-up

Synchronised radiofrequency warms the muscle a few degrees, the way a warm-up prepares you for training.

02

Contraction

HIFEM+ energy triggers thousands of supramaximal contractions, deeper than you can produce voluntarily, without loading the joints.

03

Adaptation

Over the following weeks the muscle responds: fibres grow stronger and activation improves.

Questions patients ask

Emsculpt NEO recovery, answered.

Straight answers from the clinic. If your question is not here, ask on WhatsApp.

Yes. On 8 October 2024 the US FDA cleared Emsculpt NEO for stimulating the muscles of the arms and legs for rehabilitation, including preventing or slowing disuse atrophy, muscle re-education, relaxing spasms, increasing circulation, and maintaining or increasing range of motion.

It is the same device. Recovery sessions focus on strength and muscle function in the arms and legs rather than on fat reduction and definition.

Four 30-minute sessions, 5 to 10 days apart. Some people add occasional maintenance sessions.

It feels like an intense workout: strong muscle contractions and warmth, adjusted to your comfort throughout.

Only with your surgeon's or physiotherapist's go-ahead, and alongside physiotherapy, not instead of it.

Yes. BTL names recreational and professional athletes among the people it is for, and Emsculpt NEO has been used in astronaut training for a space station mission.

None. You may feel as if you had a hard workout.

People with pacemakers or metal or electronic implants near the area, pregnant women, and anyone under 18.
