Muscle Toning & Building

Build strength and definition

Whether you want to enhance your workout results or address muscle imbalances, our body sculpting technology can build and tone muscle in ways that exercise alone cannot achieve — without surgery or downtime.

Emsculpt NEO uses High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM+) energy to induce up to 20,000 supramaximal muscle contractions in a single 30-minute session — contractions that are far more intense and complete than anything achievable through voluntary exercise. This forces the muscle to adapt and grow in ways that supplement even the most dedicated training program. The technology is FDA-cleared for the abdomen, buttocks, arms, calves, and thighs, and is equally effective for patients who are highly athletic and those who are just beginning their fitness journey. Results are typically visible after four sessions and continue to improve for several weeks afterward.

Understanding Muscle Toning & Building

What Causes It

Muscle mass naturally declines with age in a process called sarcopenia, which begins as early as the mid-thirties and accelerates after 50. Hormonal changes — particularly declining testosterone and growth hormone — reduce the body's ability to build and maintain muscle tissue. Sedentary periods due to injury, illness, or lifestyle can cause rapid muscle atrophy. Even regular exercisers may find certain muscle groups difficult to fully activate or develop due to neuromuscular inefficiency, movement compensation patterns, or simply the limitations of voluntary contraction.

How It Looks & Feels

Loss of muscle tone presents as a softer, less defined body contour — particularly in the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs. The skin over undertoned areas may appear looser or less firm. Functionally, reduced muscle mass can manifest as decreased strength, difficulty with everyday activities, poor posture, and a higher resting body fat percentage even without weight gain. Many patients describe feeling 'soft' or 'flabby' despite maintaining a healthy weight, and find that their body no longer responds to exercise the way it once did.
