Sponsored News: BTL launches new EMSCULPT device

BTL, the manufacturer behind EMSCULPT technology, is continuing to set the pace in aesthetics and non-invasive body shaping and contouring. Recently, the brand announced the launch of FDA-cleared EMSCULPT NEO, combining specially designed radiofrequency heating and high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) waves into a single therapy.

Since its launch in 2018, EMSCULPT has led the way in delivering both muscle increase and fat reduction in a single procedure, supported by more than 20 clinical publications. In EMSCULPT NEO, the addition of radiofrequency delivered simultaneously with the HIFEM produces even more impressive results for both muscle growth and fat layer reduction, opening up treatment to higher BMI patients than previously possible (1). 

Heating the muscles while burning fat allows for synergistic effects that result in more fat reduction and muscle growth than any single procedure. Upon launch seven clinical studies had already been completed supporting an average of 30% fat reduction and 25% increase in muscle mass from a course of four weekly treatments (1,2). In addition, an average reduction in abdominal separation (diastasis recti) of 18.8% and an average 5.9cm circumferential reduction was shown (1).

“EMSCULPT NEO adds a revolutionary type of RF to HIFEM, resulting in even more fat reduction and increased muscle growth, hyperplasia, and stronger thicker muscle fibres. You can treat patients with lower as well as higher BMI. This is one of those devices I call a holy grail device. It can address both stubborn fat and muscle growth at the same time,” says plastic surgeon Dr Julene Samuels.

"There was a rapid, very measurable, noticeable reduction in fat with an increase in the muscle thickness (1), and these changes are much better than what we would get with stand-alone treatments," said Dr Carolyn Jacob, one of the clinical researchers. Dr David Goldberg shared a similar sentiment when he stated, "It is less time consuming and offers more bang for the buck – with better results. This is the next dimension in body contouring."

Watch this webinar from the AM Virtual Conference 2020 by internationally renowned and multi-award-winning aesthetic doctor Dr Rita Rakus, who describes her experience with EMsculpt using HIFEM in her clinic. The presentation covers how the technology works, the extensive clinical evidence supporting it and how it has made a huge impact on her body-shaping business, with excellent outcomes and fast return on investment while attracting a wider patient demographic.
