If my patients have problems that your PCP has not been able to solve. I will refer you for new therapies, cutting edge treatments that work to treat your problem. The most common problem that my patients complain of is loss of muscle mass and changes in body fat that make them look old. I found a treatment that is not a laser, but the Emsculpt Neo uses safe and effective magnetic energy plus RF treatment to reduce fat and build muscle in a 30-minute painless treatment. Today I am going to talk about a painless treatment that we offer at my medical spa, BioBalance® Skin that has just been approved by the FDA for rehab after joint surgery. The magnetic energy (HIFEM) combined with RF energy increases muscle size and strength by 30%, dissolve fat by 25%, as well as tightens skin with the same treatment! EM Sculpt Neo is a 30-minute treatment that uses magnetic energy to make your muscles contract and is equal to thousands of crunches for 30 minutes. The RF portion breaks down subcutaneous fat in the same area. There is no work on your part, you just lie there, and your muscles respond to the magnetic pull by increasing in size and strength. Four sessions one week apart is the ideal number of treatments, and they come a in a package of four treatments to one area. The areas that most of us want to build muscle and lose fat in are our abs, upper arms, thighs, calves, love handles, and hips. If you need to do more than one area at a treatment you can do up to three areas, each for 30 minutes. If you have had joint surgery and need to increase your strength around that joint, EMSculpt Neo is very effective, after your doctor releases you to exercise. One of the big concerns with the new weight loss medications is that people often lose muscle as they lose weight. This is especially common after age 40, in those people who are not on testosterone pellets. EMSculpt Neo adds a tool that can preserve or even increase muscle mass and decrease fat where you want to lose it. EMSculpt Neo for fat loss and muscle building (not for rehabilitation) should be saved for those weight loss patients who lose enough weight to achieve a BMI under 30. For the best results, we suggest a high protein low carb diet, protein, low carb diet, to give your body the building blocks for muscle tissue. We also will suggest supplements for nutrition and to abstain from alcohol to get the best results. Healthy fat loss takes combination of EMSCULPT NEO, Weight Loss Medication, activity, Low carb high protein diet. We advise our patients over BMI of 30 to get started on weight loss first and continue diet medications while you are receiving EM-Sculpt Neo treatments. How do you lose weight without losing muscle? The Best Combination for the best results while you are losing weight on medication: EMSCULPT NEO to the areas you want to remove fat from Semaglutide or Tirzepatide medication to treat obesity for weight loss Testosterone Pellets if you are a woman over 40, and man over 50. Regular exercise like walking High protein diet Supplements to improve your ability to make muscle Who should do this EMSCULPT treatment? People who are working out but cannot do sit ups because of back injury Those folks who want fast muscle mass increase in specific areas Anyone who is on a weight loss program who is losing muscle and fat, or who has saggy skin in areas where they lost weight Patients anticipating a joint surgery Patients healing from joint surgery after PT Patients who cannot lift weights because of injury Those people who lift weights but cannot develop definition People with a Beer Belly with a lot of visceral fat Some people may not be able to enjoy this sculpting, muscle building method: We will do a free consultation before you sign up for a package of EMSculpt Neo and some patients will not get optimal results if they have any of the factors below: BMI greater than 30 Metal implants anywhere that are not titanium. Titanium is not magnetic, so it is ok to have a treatment if you have a titanium joint implant. No Rods or pins. Any pacemaker implant, pain pump under your skin, nerve stimulator or you are in the first 6 weeks post-surgery for any muscle area in the area. If you have a large abdominal hernia that was not repaired, then abdominal treatment is not advisable. You can still have other areas treated. If you have unrepaired joint damage, you can still have this treatment but let us know so we can slowly work the energy up around that joint. Those people who have a pannus, an apron of skin that hangs down below the vulva, or penis will not get enough relief from this procedure. These patients will need an abdominoplasty. This surgery is done by a plastic surgeon who removes excess skin and fat and repairs the muscles and fascia. You should not waste your money if you continue to drink alcohol while undergoing this treatment. Alcohol is a toxin and will prevent the growth of muscle and loss of body fat. Don't waste your money if you are not going to follow a low carb high protein diet during and after our treatment. How does EMSCULPT Work? EMSCULPT combines HIFEM (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic technology) and RF (Radio Frequency). HIFEM uses magnetic energy to contract muscles in a particular area at intensities that are not achievable with routine weightlifting. Fat tissue in the treated area is also reduced by increasing metabolic activity. This results in Body Contouring. HIFEM is approved by the FDA for Body contouring, muscle stimulation, growth and to rehabilitate patients with injuries or after surgery. The second treatment that occurs at the same time as HIFEM is RF, Radio Frequency treatment. RF is a low frequency electromagnetic wave that heats up fat in 4 minutes to stimulate collagen and elastin to tighten skin. All this happens in 30 minutes with minimal discomfort. 4 treatments, one a month, is all that is needed to increase muscle 25% and to decrease fat by 30%, and to visibly improve skin tone. Answers to questions about this procedure: What should my diet consist of to optimize my treatment? To gain muscle you must eat your weight in pounds equivalent to grams of protein every day. E.g. If you weigh 200 lbs. and you want to gain muscle, you should eat 200 grams of protein a day. What foods should I eat to optimize my treatment? The best most concentrated protein is found in animal products-eggs, milk products, fish, chicken and red meat. What supplements will help support my treatment? You may want to supplement your diet with our BioBalance Magnesium combination twice a day, Probiotics, Creatine or Arginine and Ornithine combination. You should also take a methyl B12 and Methyl Folate while you are sculpting your body. Why can't I eat a lot of carbs and drink alcohol during or after the treatment? If you eat a high carb diet, your fat loss portion of Em-Sculpt will be limited, because whatever carb you eat over-stimulates insulin, which increases insulin resistance, and increases fat deposition. Whatever is eaten goes directly to fat again and replaces what you just lost. When can I start EMSculpt after joint surgery? After PT is completed or your surgeon releases you for exercise. Can I lift weights while I am being treated? Yes, but we advise not to lift weights the day before, the day of or the day after your EMSCULPT treatment. What does hydration have to be optimal for the treatment to work effectively? The human body is almost all water, and hydration is needed for muscle contraction. Muscles don't contract optimally when you are dehydrated. We put you on a body composition machine to both document your muscle mass and fat mass, as well as tell if you are hydrated adequately. Now that you know how EMSculpt Neo can change your body composition and build muscle, I hope you are comfortable enough to let us help you get the body you have always wanted.
