How it works

Two Energies, One 30-Minute Session

Emsculpt Neo combines radiofrequency heating with high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy to contract muscle far beyond what voluntary exercise produces. In orthopedics and longevity care it is used to rebuild muscle function around a painful or deconditioned area, improving support, capacity, and recovery.

Radiofrequency

Muscle temperature rises within about four minutes — like a warm-up before exercise — while the fat layer is heated to the point where fat cells are affected.

HIFEM+

Supramaximal contractions work the muscle beyond what voluntary effort can produce, driving muscle remodeling and strength adaptation.

The experience

What a Session Looks Like

1. Physician consultation
Dr. Hyzy reviews your history, exam, and goals to confirm EMSCULPT NEO is the right tool for your problem.
2. Applicators positioned
Applicators are strapped over the treatment area — abdomen, buttocks, thighs, arms, or calves. You stay fully clothed in comfortable athletic wear.
3. Warm-up phase
Radiofrequency raises muscle temperature within about four minutes, similar to a warm-up before exercise, and heats the fat layer.
4. HIFEM+ contractions
Supramaximal contractions work the muscle far beyond voluntary effort. Intense but tolerable — most patients describe it as a hard workout with hot-stone warmth.
5. Recovery and plan
You get up and go back to your day. Results are typically assessed around three months after the final session, alongside your strength plan.

Beyond body shaping

Why an Orthopedic Practice Uses EMSCULPT NEO

Pain and injury cause muscle to shut down. Rebuilding that muscle is often what makes a procedure or a rehab plan hold. EMSCULPT NEO is used here for muscle re-education, disuse atrophy, and restoring capacity around a joint or the spine — alongside, not instead of, strength work and physical therapy.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a session feel like?

Intense but tolerable muscle contractions with warmth. Most patients read or talk through it.

Is there downtime?

No. Some patients feel like they finished a hard workout the next day.

How many sessions are typical?

A short series is standard, then maintenance. We tailor it to your goal and starting point.

Can I combine it with injections?

Often yes — muscle support is one of the biggest factors in how well a joint or spine treatment holds.
