Thermage FLX and Emsculpt Neo for stomach

Question

I’ve lost a bit of weight over the past 9 months and recently got some coolsculpting on my stomach to complement my weight loss. My next steps were to get Emsculpt Neo to tone, reduce a little more fat as well as thermage to tighten up the skin laxity a bit. Can I do these at the same time ? ( or back to back?) or do I need to space them out more.

CoolSculpting, Emsculpt Neo, and Thermage FLX are entirely different systems used for distinct purposes. CoolSculpting targets fat reduction and regional slimming, utilizing a cold lipolysis approach. Emsculpt Neo aims to define and tighten muscles concurrently. Thermage FLX, on the other hand, is the world's most prestigious FDA-approved skin tightening treatment. Therefore, undergoing these treatments simultaneously is not advisable. The sequence should be as follows:1. CoolSculpting,2. Emsculpt Neo3. Thermage FLX
CoolSculpting operates on the principle of cold lipolysis, using vacuum applicators to freeze fat in targeted areas. The applied cold disrupts the mechanisms of fat cells, causing them to break down. The broken-down fat is naturally eliminated from the body, resulting in regional slimming. It's a single session treatment, with effects beginning after 15 days and reaching the final outcome after 3 months.
Emsculpt Neo is a medical aesthetic procedure that sculpts the body while simultaneously building muscle. It is FDA-approved for its effectiveness. Using High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) field technology, Emsculpt Neo serves purposes such as abdominal muscle enhancement, buttock lifting, and arm tightening. It stimulates fat burning and muscle definition, typically requiring 4-6 sessions.
Thermage FLX, with its specialized body applicator, is chosen not for fat burning or muscle definition but for skin tightening. It elevates the skin to 80°, stimulating the synthesis of new collagen fibers. Its effects are immediately visible, continue to improve over 6 months, and last for many years. The body applicator is particularly used on the abdomen, inner thighs, above the knees, and inner arms. It rejuvenates, revitalizes, and tightens loose, sagging, and wrinkled skin. It's a single-session treatment applied in about half an hour using only topical anesthetic cream in clinical conditions. It does not disrupt daily life and represents a highly technological approach.
