When we think of “aesthetics,” our minds conjure up images of flawless skin, slim waists, and perfectly balanced facial features. However, building up muscle mass is also important for maintaining your image and your health.
In this blog, we’ll talk specifically about how Emsculpt NEO at Crescent Beach Care helps build muscle fast in St. Augustine so you can melt fat, tone muscle, and stop picking at your imperfections in the mirror.
What It Does
Emsculpt NEO combines heat generated from radiofrequency and high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIEM) energy to simultaneously build muscle and shrink pockets of stubborn fat. It works all over the body, but is mostly used on the arms, legs, belly, buttocks, and flanks (love handles).
The HIFEM energy stimulates over 20,000 muscle contractions in just one 30-minute appointment, providing a better workout than anything you could accomplish in the gym. This makes your muscles stronger and improves overall muscle tone.
At the same time, radiofrequency energy delivers heat into the subcutaneous layer of your skin, where stubborn fat lives. This heats the fat to around 109° to 112° Fahrenheit, causing damage to the fat cells while leaving the surrounding skin, muscle, and tissue unharmed. Your lymphatic system then flushes these fat cells from the body.
How More Muscle Helps
Did you know that increasing your muscle mass increases your basic metabolic rate, or how many calories you burn at rest? Continuing to build muscle after your Emsculpt NEO treatment, it trains your body to continue burning fat, prolonging your results.
Increased muscle mass also helps your skin! It does this by improving circulation, which gives your skin the nutrients it needs to improve collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin are proteins your body naturally makes to keep your skin beautiful and healthy.
