Our Emsculpt NEO Process
Step 1
At Smart Skin, every body contouring program begins with a personalized 30-minute consultation. During this appointment, you and your medical provider review your aesthetic goals and concerns, fitness routine, and medical history. This helps us evaluate where diet and exercise might be falling short.
Together, we create a customized body contouring strategy, which may feature Emsculpt NEO. In Franklin, our specialists understand that every body is different, and the techniques that work best for one patient may not yield optimal benefits for another. We prioritize your long-term health and safety, because that’s the smart choice.
If we decide that Emsculpt NEO at our new Franklin location will effectively support your health and wellness journey, we can schedule your first session.
Step 2
When you arrive at your first appointment, your provider guides you to our clean and comfortable treatment rooms. After cleansing the skin in the treatment areas to remove lotion, dirt, or oil, your provider applies a combination of Emsculpt NEO’s multiple applicators—large, small, or edge—depending on your goals.
The device emits high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy and specialized radiofrequency (RF) waves that target stubborn fat and the surrounding muscles.
- Burning Fat: RF energy penetrates the skin to gently heat and damage targeted fatty tissue. This gradual heating naturally destroys stubborn fat pockets. The body flushes damaged cells through the lymphatic system, yielding an average of 30% targeted fat reduction and a slimmer silhouette.
- Building Muscle: Simultaneously, HIFEM technology triggers deep, involuntary muscle contractions—stronger than those achieved through any other exercise. This technique strengthens and tones the muscles, resulting in an average increase of 25% in muscle volume.
Step 3
Expect your appointment for Emsculpt NEO in Franklin to last 45 minutes. Unlike with other body contouring devices, the total session duration doesn’t fluctuate based on the size of the treatment area. Instead, the Emsculpt NEO’s multiple applicators address both large and small areas of the body within a 30-minute treatment cycle.
We recommend clients complete a series of 4 to 6 sessions, each 5 to 10 days apart. This timeframe capitalizes on the momentum of muscle building for optimal results without overworking the tissue.
Step 4
Emsculpt NEO has no downtime, so clients can return to their normal activities immediately. You may experience mild muscle fatigue, but this side effect should subside within 24 to 48 hours.
While some clients notice a reduction in stubborn fat and improved muscle definition as early as 4 to 6 weeks after their session, optimal results develop after 3 months. We recommend scheduling a maintenance appointment every 3 to 6 months to protect your new physique.
