Will Emsculpt Neo give me a more even and natural look over Sculpsure? (Photos)

Question

I'm 50 years old, 5'6" and 130lbs, and a gym rat. I used to weigh 10 lbs less prior to covid. However, I'm post-menopausal and any weight I gain is not going away from anything I do at the gym. I had one treatment (8 squares) of Sculpsure on my abdomen and flanks and am looking to lose a little more weight from my waistline, lower abdomen, and a little from my flanks. My concerns: I do not want to be any boxier and I read conflicting stories about needing to maintain Emsculpt Neo.

The two treatments do completely different things.  Emsculpt strengthens muscles and is a temporary treatment that needs to be maintained.  Sculpture is a non-surgical subcutaneous fat reducing treatment.  The results are very subtle and typically do not compare to what can be done with Liposuction.

So, one procedure will slightly reduce subcutaneous fat(usually no more than what can barely be seen on before and after pictures) The other one strengthen muscles similar to very very intense exercise.

Based on the picture and your history of weight gain Liposuction is probably the best treatment options.

The patients who benefit most from emsculpt have very little fat layer and show the improved muscle definition from the muscle strengthening that this treatment creates.

Best,
