Emtone has a 29% Worth It Rating from the RealSelf community, so while most patients were happy with their investment, not everyone thought it was worth what they paid.
Those who were satisfied by their Emtone procedure observed smoother, more toned-looking skin in the treatment area, with some seeing results after just two treatments.
Those who were unhappy saw little to no improvement at all, even after completing packages of six or more treatments.
Everyone will have a different experience with the procedure, and who you see for your treatment can make a big difference in the outcome.
An experienced provider who offers this and other cellulite treatment options can assess whether this is the best choice for you.
A handful of factors can cause Emtone treatment costs to vary.
Though you may find competitive pricing due to the sheer volume of providers, expect steeper prices if you're in a major metropolitan area. Cities like New York and Los Angeles have higher costs of living, which will be reflected in the price of your treatment.
Prices can also vary by ZIP Code, so if price is a concern, it can be worth your time to compare personalized price quotes from a few different providers (especially those practicing outside the downtown core).
Every state has its own laws on who can legally perform aesthetic procedures like Emtone, but a broad range of providers with varying levels of training offer this cellulite treatment, including aestheticians at medspas and physicians with their own doctor's offices.
Treatment sessions booked with providers with more advanced credentials—such as a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon—will be pricier.
Though cellulite can appear across the body, it’s most commonly found on the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, and upper arms.
Addressing more than one treatment area (or larger areas) will end up costing you more money.
Most providers recommend starting with a package of four treatment sessions, though your unique needs will dictate how many appointments you should schedule.
It may be tempting to book fewer Emtone treatment sessions to save money, but you’ll see the best results if you complete the full treatment series.
You'll also have to book touch-up sessions every 3–12 months to maintain your results, so be prepared to budget for them, as well.
Your provider may offer package pricing if you’re willing to pay for several sessions at once, helping you save money on each individual appointment.
You may also see deals from your favorite practitioners on social media (especially ahead of the warmer months, when we tend to expose more skin), so keep an eye on their feeds to ensure you don't miss any discounts.
You'll likely see cheaper Emtone treatments on coupon websites, but be sure to thoroughly research the provider offering the deal. Side effects from Emtone are uncommon, but seeing a skilled practitioner will reduce any risk and help ensure you get the best results.
Financing can make Emtone more affordable. During your consultation, ask your provider which financing options they accept.
