Should I do VASER Lipo or Emsculpt Neo to Remove Fat From the Waist?
If you’re trying to sculpt and define your waistline to achieve a trim, attractive appearance, you have probably followed a strict, healthy diet and pushed yourself with targeted exercise to achieve your goal.
But if your progress seems continually stalled, or you’re just not seeing the results you want, you may have decided you want to take it to the next level and boost your results. Which procedure is best to get that tight, trim waist–VASER Lipo or Emsculpt NEO?
What is VASER Lipo?
VASER lipo is a unique, minimally invasive form of liposuction that uses ultrasound energy to break up and remove unwanted fat. This procedure can be used to contour and define a sculpted, tighter waistline.
The VASER lipo technique uses a handheld device that emits ultrasonic waves. These waves separate out the fat from the surrounding tissues and muscle and destroy it. The fat is then sucked out through a special type of cannula, or hollow tube.
VASER lipo provides specific, detailed precision, including highlighting muscles, and can be used to tone and tighten the abdominal area, chisel a six-pack and provide a more athletic and muscular contour.
What is Emsculpt NEO?
Emsculpt NEO is a completely non-invasive device that achieves a double effect: it burns fat and builds muscle simultaneously. To sculpt the waist, the Emsculpt NEO device is placed on the area, where it emits radio-frequency (RF) heat to destroy fat cells, and high-intensity, focused electromagnetic waves to contract the muscles to tone and tighten. The fat cells are naturally flushed out by the body, and the muscles are built to achieve lean, attractive muscle mass.
The treatment painlessly stimulates the muscles at a strength beyond anything achievable by a workout, achieving a higher reduction of fat and stimulated muscle growth than any other device available. 2-3 treatments are recommended per week for 2-4 weeks.
Results
Results after VASER lipo are most apparent after about 3-6 months. Because it is a surgical procedure, even if minimally invasive, there will be a recovery period. Swelling reduces significantly after about six weeks. During your recovery period, it’s important to wear your compression garment to help reduce and minimize the swelling. Your results will be significantly learner, tighter and more sculpted waistline.
After Emsculpt NEO treatments, there is no recovery period needed of any kind. You will begin to see results in about two weeks, after your body has had a chance to flush out the fat cells that were destroyed and as your muscles continue to build. Average results achieve a 30% reduction in fat and a 25% growth in muscle volume.
Which is best for me–VASER lipo or Emsculpt NEO?
Both VASER lipo and Emsculpt NEO can achieve effective, significant results in sculpting you a tighter, leaner and contoured waist. VASER lipo results can be more dramatic, but require a minimally-invasive surgical procedure. Emsculpt NEO results achieve a less significant fat reduction effect, but the procedure is completely non invasive and includes muscle toning.
