Body Sculpting and Weight Loss

Are you struggling with weight loss? Semaglutide is an FDA approved medical weight loss treatment that is injected under the skin once a week. It is a celebrity favorite to reduce weight safely and effectively. Whether you are struggling with obesity or looking to shed a few stubborn pounds, Semaglutide may be the right option for you!

What is Semaglutide?

Semaglutide was originally developed for the treatment of Type II Diabetes Mellitus. There are several brand names of these medications that have the same active ingredient and mechanism of action.

How does it work?

Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist and mimics the hormone GLP-1 that is naturally produced in the body. It works by slowing gastric emptying, thereby increasing the sensation of fullness and suppressing cravings. In addition to weight loss, it improves blood sugar levels. Clinical trials for Semaglutide were for 68 weeks and were found to have long term benefits on metabolic function.

What are the side effects?

The most common side effects of Semaglutide are nausea and constipation. These side effects can be reduced by starting with a low dose and slowly titrating up. Nausea can be improved with the medication Zofran and constipation alleviated with stool softeners and fiber supplements.

Who should not take Semaglutide?

You should not take Semaglutide if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer, if you have an endocrine system condition called Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), or if you have a history of pancreatitis.

How much weight will I lose on Semaglutide?

How does EMSCULPT NEO work?

The treatment utilizes sophisticated technology that emits both HIFEM and RF energy through a single applicator. The dual energies provide a synergistic effect, delivering better results during one EMSCULPT NEO session than the energies produce individually during separate experiences.

The addition of RF energy optimizes fat reduction. EMSCULPT NEO delivers unprecedented muscle development via HIFEM. This energy penetrates the skin via a proprietary applicator. The current of energy stimulates the muscle tissue causing it to contract. These muscle contractions are known as supramaximal contractions. This type of contraction is far more powerful than anything you can achieve manually. Each 30-minute session induces more than 20,000 contractions. The tension of these contractions forces the body to adapt to the stress by creating new muscle cells and strengthening the already existing muscle fibers.

Before the contractions, the radio frequency heats underlying tissue and warms the muscle up in preparation for the intense contractions. Besides the synergistic effect of the RF technology addition, the dual-energy triggers lipolysis or fat cell death. Thermal energy disrupts the fat cell, causing them to melt. The dead cells are naturally gathered by the body and process out as waste. Once the fat cells are removed, they are gone for good. This leads to long-lasting results.

Unfortunately, the type of fat deposit that collects here is hard to eliminate because it is influenced by genetics, age, and hormones. In addition, upper arm fat tends to resist diet and exercise efforts, making it extremely challenging to reduce without professional help.

It is virtually impossible to tone away fat in the upper arms. While building arm muscles with exercise provides a toned appearance, the muscles may still be obscured by extra fat buildup. Since “spot reducing” with manual exercise is a myth, there is no way to physically burn upper arm fat and tone the biceps and triceps.

With EMSCULPT NEO for arms, people struggling with embarrassing arm fat have a solution free from invasive surgery or pain. This body shaping treatment sculpts lean, sexy arms conveniently utilizing the dual energies of electromagnetic and radio frequency.

EMSCULPT NEO for Thighs & Calves

The thighs contain hormone-influenced deposits of fat.  Estrogen sends more fat cells to the area around the thighs and buttocks. You can’t tone away this type of fat. Building the leg muscles is critical for a strong, toned appearance, but manual muscle building does not eliminate thigh fat.

Therefore, getting rid of bulges on the thighs may require the professional help of EMSCULPT NEO. This body shaping treatment targets the two parts of body composition that determine the overall appearance of the legs: fat and muscle.

The calf muscles are also tough to build and develop with manual work. The leading cause for this is simply genetics. However, another common reason is that the calves are hard to develop because of biology. The lower leg muscles are hard to create. The soleus, a major muscle in the calf, has half of the quad muscle’s potential to synthesize the protein that makes muscle tissues. Since the calves see a lot of activity during the day, this muscle group is more developed than others. Because of this, it takes a lot of tension or stress to trigger muscle creation and strengthening.

EMSCULPT NEO provides an easy way to quickly and effectively build and chisel lean calf muscles you can show off.

EMSCULPT NEO Non-Ivasive Butt Lift

This non-surgical butt lift option uses the advanced technology of this body shaping treatment to stimulate powerful contractions in the glutes. Each treatment uses the HIFEM or High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic energy to induce supramaximal contractions. The penetration is entirely painless. The contractions strain the muscle tissue, causing the body to adapt to the tension by creating new fibers and strengthening the existing ones.

First, EMSCULPT NEO creates new tissue providing the volumetric growth needed to achieve more lifted, plump buttocks. Second, it strengthens the existing tissues improving muscle tone, creating a subtle lifting effect. In addition to the High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic energy, the radio frequency energy heats the subcutaneous fat cells below the skin. The energy effectively damages and destroys stubborn fat cells in the buttocks, providing a lean, firm-looking butt.

CoolTone utilizes Magnetic Muscle Stimulation to penetrate through the skin and fat layers to target only the muscle layer, inducing involuntary muscle contractions. The body’s response to these contractions is to strengthen its muscle fibers, resulting in improved muscle conditioning.

It is completely non-invasive, non-surgical and there is no downtime. It is FDA-cleared for toning, firming and strengthening the muscles of the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs.

After treatments, these areas are firmer and have a more defined and toned appearance.
