Emsella Questions
Firstly, EMSELLA helps patients to restore the control of their bladder, pelvic floor muscles and eliminate incontinence or any kind of intimate discomfort. Secondly, EMSELLA is a truly non-invasive procedure where patients remain fully clothed.
EMSELLA is a great option for women and men of any age who desire a solution for urinary incontinence and improvement in their quality of life.
According to NAFC*, over 200 million people worldwide are affected by incontinence. Are you one of them? Take a quick test!
- Do you leak urine when you cough, sneeze or engage in sports activities?
- Do you need to go to the bathroom often?
- Have you refrained from intimate life in the last months out of fear of insecurity?
If you answered “yes”, you are probably suffering from urinary incontinence. EMSELLA is the first device of its kind and is FDA-cleared for treating urinary incontinence in women.
Contraindications:
- Implanted devices such as cardiac pacemakers, defibrillators, neurostimulators
- Electronic implants
- Drug pumps
- Metal implants
- Intrauterine devices containing any kind of metal (eg IUD)
- Severe or life-threatening condition
- Pulmonary insufficiency
- Heart disorders
- Decompensated haemorrhagic conditions
- Decompensated blood coagulation disorders
- Malignant tumour
- Fever
- Epilepsy
- Menstruation
- Pregnancy
Your provider will tailor a treatment plan for you. A typical treatment takes about 30 minutes and you will need about 6 sessions, scheduled twice a week.
You will experience tingling and pelvic floor muscle contractions during the procedure. You may resume daily activities immediately after the treatment.
You may observe improvement after a single session. The results will typically continue to improve over the next few weeks.
EMSELLA is the only procedure that targets pelvic floor muscles and causes deep pelvic floor stimulation because of HIFEM * technology. All other procedures such as intravaginal electrostimulation have a risk of burns and lack the effect as the electrical current treats tissue only superficially, not even mentioning the need to insert the disposable vaginal probe.
Comparing to Kegels, patients are not able to properly contract pelvic floor muscles, build the routine to do Kegels at least 3x per day and do them in hundreds of repetitions to see some results.
EMSELLA is FDA cleared, medical CE-marked, and represents the first innovative technology that has shown in multiple studies to treat incontinence and intimate discomfort. When you come in for a consultation, the doctor will cover how EMSELLA works and discuss the unique safety profile in detail.
That is the best thing about EMSELLA. Patients say it is completely painless, the procedure feels like an intense pelvic floor workout. You can sit on EMSELLA and relax during the treatment. During your consultation, our staff will be more than happy to let you experience the unrivalled comfort of the procedure.
Well, it really depends. We need to see you to determine your medical condition and recommend how many treatments are needed to get the result you are after. Are you available to come in for a consultation so we can provide you with an answer?

Nothing in life lasts forever and this will vary according to your health condition. The clinical studies show that the majority of patients are able to maintain the results 6 months after their treatment series. However, we recommend booking another consultation a few months after your treatments to see if you may benefit from any additional treatments. Keeping a healthy lifestyle is the key to maintain your results in the longer term.

You begin to feel tangible results right after the treatment. Positive results are usually reported two to four weeks after the last session and continue to improve for several weeks following the treatments.
Emsculpt NEO Questions
EMSCULPT NEO is the first and only non-invasive body shaping procedure that uses radiofrequency heating for fat reduction and high intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM®) for muscle strengthening and toning in a 30-minute session. The end result is more fat reduction and muscle growth than any single gold standard product, for less time and less money. Best of all, EMSCULPT NEO has a broad patient appeal as it can treat patients up to BMI 35.
Unfortunately the Emsculpt NEO is only available at our Geelong location.
EMSCULPT NEO is based on an applicator simultaneously emitting synchronized RF and HIFEM+ energies. Due to the radiofrequency heating, the muscle temperature quickly raises by several degrees. This prepares muscles for exposure to stress, similar to what a warm up activity does before any workout. In less than 4 minutes, the temperature in subcutaneous fat reaches levels that cause apoptosis, i.e. fat cells are permanently damaged and slowly removed from the body. Clinical studies showed on average a 30% reduction in subcutaneous fat. Bypassing the brain limitations, HIFEM+ energy contracts the muscle fibers in the area at intensities that are not achievable during voluntary workout. Extreme stress forces the muscle to adapt, resulting in an increase in the number and growth of muscle fibers and cells. On average the muscle volume increases by 25%*.
If you can benefit from less fat and more muscle, EMSCULPT NEO procedure may be a great fit. Ask Firm and Free for more details.
EMSCULPT NEO can be applied over the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, arms & calves.
Yes! EMSCULPT NEO and the embedded high intensity magnetic field (HIFEM) technology has been clinically tested for
safety and efficacy through seven clinical studies*. Moreover, 30 scientific publications make HIFEM the most intensively
researched body contouring technology since its introduction in 2018.
EMSCULPT NEO procedure is simple and easy. There is no pre-preparation required for this procedure. You will lay down while the applicators are applied over the treatment area for 30 minutes.
During the treatment you may feel intense yet tolerable muscle contractions along with heating sensation which is comparable to hot stone massage. Once the procedure is completed, you can immediately get back to your daily routine.
Protocol for EMSCULPT NEO is usually four 30-minute treatments, scheduled 5-10 days apart. Consult your provider for details.
Each patient’s results may vary but the best time to see the final results is in 3 months after the last treatment.
There is no downtime with this procedure. You can get back to your daily routine right after the treatment.
YES! EMSCULPT NEO can treat patients with BMI up to 35.
After the treatment, the dead fat cells are flushed out from the body through metabolic processes. The rest is flushed out by the body.
EMSCULPT NEO treatment does not require any pre-treatment preparations. You can resume your regular lifestyle right after the treatment. It is recommended to follow a healthy lifestyle, balanced diet and proper hydration for best results.
No, EMSCULPT NEO procedure does not help with weight reduction. The therapy helps reduce your fat and build your muscles.
EMSCULPT NEO treatments may feel intense but should never be painful.
Liposuction cannot be compared with EMSCULPT NEO as EMSCULPT NEO is a completely non-invasive procedure.
It does not require surgery, needles, anesthesia, or any downtime. There is no other device in the aesthetic field that treats both fat and muscle in a single treatment.
Even slimmer patients interested in muscle building can enjoy significant benefits when using the EMSCULPT NEO.
Clinical studies showed on average a 25% growth in muscle mass*.
* Results and patient experience may vary. As with any medical procedure, ask your doctor if the EMSCULPT NEO® procedure is right for you. In the EU, EMSCULPT NEO® is intended for the treatment of obesity by fat reduction through neuromuscular stimulation, radiofrequency-induced lipolysis and increase of blood flow.
Emtone Questions
EMTONE is ideal for anyone looking for non-invasive cellulite reduction and overall improvement of skin appearance and physiological function.
During the first visit, your provider helps design your individual treatment plan. Most patients undergo 4 treatments, scheduled once or twice a week. A treatment typically takes about 20 minutes depending on the treated area.
Revolutionary EMTONE technology is based on a simultaneous delivery of thermal and mechanical energy. The most common perception of the therapy is that it is similar to a hot stone massage with intense mechanical vibrations. The treatment is performed in a relaxing lying-down position.
Patients have reported improvements after a single treatment session. The results typically continue to improve over the next few months. With no downtime, you may resume normal activity immediately after the treatment.
