What is muscle electrostimulation?
Muscle electrostimulation is a technique that uses electrical impulses to trigger muscle contractions. It is often used in physiotherapy, rehabilitation and sports training to strengthen muscles, improve blood circulation and help relieve pain.
Electrostimulation involves placing electrodes on the surface of the skin over the muscles to be stimulated. The electrical impulses mimic the body’s neural signals, causing the muscles to contract and relax.
EMSCULPT NEO is an innovative aesthetic treatment that combines muscle electrostimulation with radiofrequency to tone the body and reduce localised fat.
What is muscle electrostimulation used for?
How does muscle electrostimulation with EMSCULPT NEO work?
This is an advanced body contouring treatment that uses high-intensity electromagnetic energy, known as HIFEM+, to stimulate muscle contractions, together with radiofrequency to help reduce fat and improve skin texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does electrostimulation help you lose weight?
Electrostimulation with EMSCULPT NEO can be an option to improve muscle definition and reduce fat in specific areas. However, it is important to understand that EMSCULPT NEO is not a treatment for significant weight loss.
The main goal of EMSCULPT NEO is to build muscle and reduce localised fat in the treated areas.
This treatment induces intense involuntary muscle contractions while increasing the temperature in the fat layer, helping to break down fat cells. Although this may lead to a slight reduction in the circumference of the treated area and an improvement in muscle tone, EMSCULPT NEO is not the most suitable treatment for weight loss.
If you are looking for a weight loss treatment, book an assessment consultation at Living Clinic so that we can assess your specific case and recommend the most suitable treatment.
What are the contraindications of electrostimulation?
Although EMSCULPT NEO is considered a safe and effective treatment, there are some contraindications.
It is not recommended for pregnant women, people with metal implants or prostheses in the body, people with heart conditions, epilepsy or other medical conditions that could be worsened by electromagnetic wave therapy.
How many electrostimulation sessions are needed?
In general, we recommend a minimum of 6 sessions, scheduled 5 to 10 days apart.
However, to create a treatment plan adapted to your individual goals, we recommend booking a free assessment.
Does muscle electrostimulation require recovery time?
No. Muscle electrostimulation with EMSCULPT NEO is a non-invasive treatment and generally does not require any recovery time.
After the session, you can return to your usual activities. You may feel some muscle soreness or a sensation similar to what you would experience after an intense workout, but this is usually temporary.
Does muscle electrostimulation hurt?
Muscle electrostimulation is not usually described as painful. During the session, you will feel intense muscle contractions in the treated area, similar to a deep workout.
The intensity is gradually adjusted by the specialist to make the treatment comfortable and suited to each person’s tolerance.
Does electrostimulation really work?
Yes. EMSCULPT NEO, which combines electrostimulation with radiofrequency, has shown consistent results in fat reduction and/or muscle building in several recent clinical studies.
In addition, according to the official BTL website, 30 scientific publications make HIFEM one of the most extensively researched body sculpting technologies since its introduction in 2018.
The effectiveness of the treatment has also been cleared by the FDA.
When will I start seeing results?
There may be an immediate feeling of improvement after the electrostimulation treatment.
The most visible results are usually reported 2 to 4 weeks after the last session and may continue to improve for several weeks after the treatment plan is completed.
How long do the results of muscle electrostimulation last?
