The world of non-invasive body sculpting is constantly evolving, offering new and improved treatments to help you achieve your dream physique. Here in Austin, two options have taken center stage: Emsculpt NEO and CoolTone. Both promise a sculpted body with minimal downtime, but how do you choose? Let's break down the key differences and see which one reigns supreme.
Comparing Emsculpt NEO and CoolTone: Muscle Building and Fat Reduction
Both Emsculpt NEO and CoolTone utilize similar technology to build muscle. However, Emsculpt NEO offers a unique advantage by combining radiofrequency (RF) energy with high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM), leading to more significant muscle growth AND fat reduction. Compared to CoolTone, which relies solely on HIFEM and doesn't have fat reduction.
Emsculpt NEO: A Workout Worth 25,000 Crunches
Emsculpt NEO and CoolTone both simulate intense muscle contractions, equivalent to performing thousands of crunches in a single session. While the exact number may vary, both treatments offer a powerful workout for your muscles.
Even celebrities like Drew Barrymore, Megan Fox, and Kim Kardashian are loving Emsculpt NEO.
Body Fat and Muscle Gain
Studies have shown that Emsculpt NEO Emsculpt states it is a 25% muscle increase and 30% fat reduction in the treated area. CoolTone is also effective in building muscle, but does not offer the same level of fat reduction.
"I consistently hear from my patients that the strength they gain in the treated area is very noticeable in their workouts.
With the common use of GLP 1’s and the loss of muscle this is a great treatment to add to your normal workouts to help maintain muscle strength." - Kari Van Zandt, Medical Aesthetician at The Piazza Center
Cost Efficiency with Emsculpt NEO
Emsculpt NEO offers a unique cost-saving opportunity with its "bring a friend" program. By scheduling a treatment with a friend for your abs, you can both split the cost and enjoy the benefits of this powerful technology.

The Verdict: Tailoring the Treatment to Your Goals
Both Emsculpt NEO and CoolTone offer valuable benefits. If your primary goal is sculpting and defining your muscles, CoolTone could be a great option. However, if you seek both muscle building and fat reduction, with the added advantage of shorter treatment times and cost-saving options like the "bring a friend" deal, then Emsculpt NEO emerges as the winner.
At the Piazza Center, we have elected to stock Emsculpt NEO due to its ability to both build and burn fat more effectively than Cooltone. Feel free to book a complimentary consult with our master aestheticians Annie Pankl and Kari Van Zandt to build a custom body sculpting plan.
