While surgeries can have an outstanding effect on helping you achieve your aesthetic goals, there are also non-invasive options that offer results that stand alone and also complement surgical options.
At Salas Plastic Surgery the most requested non-invasive treatment this spring (to prep for summer!) has been the new Emsculpt Neo.
Here are the essential details to know about this innovative treatment:
What is it?
Emsculpt Neo It is the first and only non-invasive body shaping device that provides simultaneous fat elimination and muscle building in a combined 30-minute session.
This advanced “NEO” version of the already hugely successful original Emsculpt muscle-building device is an even better treatment option including radiofrequency for fat and high-intensity electromagnetic energy for muscle building. Multiple studies have shown the end result is more fat reduction (30%) and increased muscle growth (25%) on average than any other gold-standard product.
What’s the experience like?
The treatment is once a week for 4 weeks, 30 minutes long including a warmup, and feels like an intense workout in the chosen muscle groups. Special Pads are applied on the areas you want to improve and then the machine goes to work creating the equivalent of thousands of muscle contractions for a more toned physique, coupled with the radiofrequency to help dissolve unwanted fat.

The settings are adaptable so you can choose to only build muscle and not burn fat. I use this on thinner patients who want increased muscle, especially on their buttocks.
What areas can I treat?
Emsculpt Neo is approved for the abdomen, buttocks, arms, and calves.
How do I get treatment?
As an Emsculpt center of excellence, Salas Plastic Surgery is proud to have one of the few devices in Miami-Dade county and we are available for booking treatments at your convenience.
