What is Emtone?

Emtone is an FDA-approved device to non-invasively reduce the appearance of cellulite in the upper and lower body without anesthesia or downtime. Emtone can increase collagen levels by 59%, elastin by 64%, and dermal thickness by 44% on average.

An Emtone session addresses all five causes of cellulite by reducing fat chambers, increasing collagen and elastin production, restoring skin elasticity, improving blood flow, and increasing metabolic waste removal. Emtone treatment is comfortable and convenient, and results are long-lasting. Emtone can treat cellulite in the abdomen, buttocks, thighs, love handles, and upper arms.

Non-Invasive Cellulite Treatment with No Downtime

There are numerous modalities that claim to improve cellulite, but few can deliver the results they claim. Cellulite is a difficult problem to treat with ongoing maintenance needed. Because of this difficulty, some treatments on the market are minimally invasive instead of noninvasive. This means that a numbing solution is required to be injected, and a mechanical probe introduced to break up the fibrous bands causing cellulite. The process results in long-term swelling and bruising and no directed treatment of skin, blood flow, or metabolic waste.

Emtone, on the other hand, is the only NON-INVASIVE treatment that targets all the causes of cellulite with zero downtime. There is no bruising, no needles, and no numbing required. The temperature and pressure of the devices is carefully monitored throughout the treatment to smooth and tighten the area treated.

How many sessions does it take to get results with Emtone?

It typically takes about 4 sessions in each treatment area to get the best results with Emtone. You will see Dr. Saxon for an initial evaluation to determine a treatment plan made specifically for you. Each session takes about 30 minutes for each treatment area. Treatments are spaced twice a week for two weeks. Results continue to improve over about 3 months after your last treatment.

The cause of cellulite continues over time, so maintenance treatments are recommended every 6-12 months.

Many noninvasive cellulite devices use suction, heat, and mechanical force that can be painful and cause bruising. Emtone uses targeted pressure energy and radiofrequency which feel like a light tapping combined with gentle warmth. Most describe it as a hot stone massage. It is very well tolerated compared to other cellulite devices. There is no suction or injections, so the treatment has zero downtime with no bruising or discomfort.

Is there downtime with each Emtone cellulite treatment session?

No. There is no downtime at all with Emtone.

You can come in over your lunch break and not feel any discomfort after the procedure. The treatment area may feel a little warm at first which dissipates over several hours. Results are sometimes seen immediately, but they will continue to improve over 2-3 months.

When it comes to our results with Emtone patients have found long-lasting success. As needed, results can be maintained with touch-up treatments every six months to a year.
