Emsculpt NEO for Love Handles
Medically Reviewed by Arash Akhavan, MD, FAAD
Love handles, also known as flanks, are a common problem area for many people, regardless of body type or fitness level. These stubborn pockets of fat that sit above the hips can be incredibly difficult to reduce, even with consistent diet and exercise. Many people find that, despite their efforts, love handles persist, making them feel self-conscious in fitted clothing, swimsuits, or during everyday activities.
The appearance of love handles can disrupt the natural contours of the waistline, causing frustration for those trying to achieve a slimmer, more sculpted silhouette. Even individuals who are otherwise fit may struggle with this area due to genetics, hormones, or aging, which often lead to fat deposits around the midsection that are resistant to traditional weight-loss methods.
This is where Emsculpt NEO offers a game-changing solution. Designed to address both fat and muscle, Emsculpt NEO not only reduces fat in the love handles but also strengthens the oblique muscles, helping to sculpt and define the waistline. In this post, we’ll explore how Emsculpt NEO works to eliminate love handles and why it is the best non-invasive option for achieving a more contoured, athletic-looking waistline.
The Best Solution for Love Handles: The Emsculpt NEO Edge Applicators
At The Dermatology and Laser Group, we were proud to be the first practice in New York City to offer the revolutionary Emsculpt NEO Edge Applicators—specifically designed for treating love handles and sculpting the waistline. These applicators are a game-changer for targeting stubborn flank fat, providing the most effective non-surgical solution available today, garnering rave reviews.
The Emsculpt NEO Edge Applicators are uniquely designed to fit the natural curve of the flanks, allowing the HIFEM and radiofrequency (RF) energy to penetrate deeply and evenly across the love handles. The RF energy heats and destroys fat cells, while the HIFEM technology induces powerful muscle contractions in the oblique muscles, resulting in a stronger, more defined waistline.
This dual-action approach not only melts away stubborn fat but also builds and strengthens the core muscles, which contributes to a more athletic, V-shaped physique. The results are not only aesthetic—patients also experience improved core strength, which supports posture and enhances athletic performance.
Because of the precise design of the Edge Applicators, Emsculpt NEO has become the gold standard for non-invasive love handle treatment. The unique design delivers the fat melting energy from both the front and the back, maximizing the destruction of fat.
If you are looking for the best solution for love handles, Emsculpt NEO with Edge Applicators delivers unmatched results, reducing fat while sculpting a leaner, more defined waistline—all with zero downtime.
Pairing Emsculpt NEO Love Handles with Abdomen Treatment
For patients seeking full core transformation, combining Emsculpt NEO treatments for the love handles and abdomen is the ultimate solution. Treating both areas together not only eliminates stubborn fat but also builds and strengthens the entire abdominal core, helping patients achieve a stronger, leaner, and more sculpted midsection.
The abdominal treatment with Emsculpt NEO targets the rectus abdominis (six-pack muscles) and deep core muscles, while the Edge Applicators on the love handles focus on the oblique muscles, which are crucial for core strength and waistline definition. Together, these treatments sculpt the entire core region, improve posture, and enhance athletic performance, making everyday movements easier and more powerful.
Additionally, at The Dermatology and Laser Group, we make it easy to combine these treatments by offering them back-to-back in a single visit—saving patients time while providing a more complete body contouring result. As an added benefit, patients receive a 50% discount on the second area when they choose to treat both areas together, making it a cost-effective way to achieve their body goals.
With Emsculpt NEO for both the love handles and abdomen, patients experience a stronger core, slimmer waistline, and more defined abs, all with zero downtime and in fewer treatments than ever before.
