These non-surgical devices use various combinations of electromagnetic energy, radiofrequency, and ultrasound to achieve their desired effects. The following is a description of each of the non-invasive modalities offered at Engineered Aesthetics Plastic Surgery Institute that can be used to improve one’s aesthetic appearance without the need for surgery. Plastic surgeon Dr. Nitin J. Engineer states that “Emsculpt Neo uses electromagnetic energy in addition to radiofrequency to build and tone muscle, while burning fat, respectively. The entire principle is FDA approved for an array of targeted anatomic areas including the abdominal, gluteal, thigh, calf, biceps, and triceps muscles.” Electromagnetic energy and radiofrequency were previously unable to be implemented together due to counteracting technology. Dr. Engineer elaborates,
“Now, we can use applicators that allow us to target the motor neurons in these muscle groups to induce signals to contract the muscles at a higher velocity and frequency. This engages the muscles in a fashion to replicate a workout to an exponential degree. For example, the device could simulate 20,000 sit-ups in just thirty minutes potentially because of the frequency at which the muscles engage. Furthermore, the radiofrequency helps melt the surrounding fat in the same anatomic area.” . Dr Engineer shares that his personal fitness trainer tried Emsculpt Neo. Despite his trainer’s extreme level of physical conditioning, he was still sore two to three days following the treatment, emphasizing its effectiveness. This therapy can benefit almost any physique er gardlessoffitnesslevel,althoughEngi. Dr neer does mention, “For patients with a soft abdomen and excess fat, it is very important to im-

plement the radiofrequency portion to burn the fat while the muscles use the stored energy from that burned fat.” Emsella uses the same electromagnetic energy in Emsculpt alone without radiofrequency to targetthepelvicfloormusculate.ur Thiscanbene fitpatientsthatsufferfromurinaryincontience.

According to Dr. Engineer, Exilis, “uses radiofrequency and ultrasound to tighten the skin and smoothen wrinkles. Skin laxity is caused by the loss of connective tissue and storage of excess fat,specificalar ly oundtheeyesandneckSci . en tific esear r ch egar r ding the use of Exils to eat r these areas shows an average of 42% reduction in wrinkles.” Body contouring is also an option
with this technology and involves controlled heating and cooling as the radiofrequency burns the fat, and the ultrasound tightens the skin. Dr. Engineer also reveals a solution for cellulite with Emtone, which “uses radiofrequency and targeted pressure therapy to simultaneously deliver thermal and mechanical energy.” Emtone targets areas of cellulite from many angles. “Cellulite is a multifactorial problem. Fibrous bands run from the skin to the muscle and pull the tissue down, creating dimples around pockets of fat. Emtone melts the fat, losens the fibrous bands, and smoothens the texture. It’s especially great for the dimpling areas on the posterior aspect of the thighs,” Dr. Engineer reports.
