EMScuplt is technology to thicken and tone muscles and remove some excess fat. Laser used in liposuction does not actually remove any fat, this is done with liposuction, but helps tighten skin.

M sculpt is not an operation. It is a device that intensely contracts your muscles for a short period of time giving muscle strength. It’s a procedure that’s good for individuals who have a body where you can already see muscle definition and wear increasing muscle definition can have a big impact. ideally low BMI athletic type people see big changes from this device. People with excess subcutaneous fat or significant skin laxity will not see much change at all and Emsculpt is temporary. It needs to be repeated just like Botox or fillers.
Delivering consistent quality liposuction results it’s more difficult than most people believe and most plastic surgeons typically aren’t sufficiently talented to deliver the highest quality results on a regular basis.
The selection process for who is a good candidate for Liposuction it’s also extremely important to recognize. Some people simply are not good candidates for Liposuction and if you’re not a good candidate no matter who your surgeon is you’re not gonna get a good results.
Typically those who are excellent candidates for Liposuction can be described as “young tight and pudgy”. 
Individuals with conditions like pregnancy related changes do better with a full tummy tuck.

To clarify this question. The EMsculpt Neo treatment will provide a more in-depth result considering the expectation should be not only waist inches reduction but also muscle strengthening. Balance, strength, increase of health span, pain reduction, less visceral fat, less subcutaneous fat, better mind-muscle connection are some of the benefits provided by this state of the art technology that you would never obtain with liposuction. In addition to no operative risk, downtime or pain. The question to patients will be, do you want just less subcutaneous fat or do you want a healthier, stronger, better looking body?
