As the new year approaches, achieving your weight loss goals becomes a top priority. In this guide, I explore the synergy of Ozempic, CoolSculpting Elite and Emsculpt Neo, based on results with my patients, offering a powerful combination to help you shed those extra pounds and get in your best shape possible.
Over the past two years, I’ve successfully prescribed semaglutide or Ozempic for weight loss to over 500 patients. Looking back, the most effective outcomes have been achieved by combining semaglutide with body sculpting and muscle building, particularly with Emsculpt Neo. Despite recommending early strength training, patients on semaglutide typically lose 20+ lbs and this significant weight loss can lead to skin laxity and muscle loss also known as sarcopenia. This rapid weight loss is what “Ozempic face” and “Ozempic butt” are referring to. Combining Emsculpt Neo with semaglutide addresses these issues, resulting in enhanced and toned outcomes. For optimal results, I recommend combining both approaches. Let’s break down all the options and how they work individually and in tandem.
Semaglutide: A Game-Changer in Weight Loss
Ozempic and Wegovy, both of which contain semaglutide as the active ingredient, are once-weekly injections renowned for their effectiveness in significant weight loss. By stimulating insulin release and slowing stomach emptying, Ozempic aids in lowering blood sugar levels and reducing calorie intake. Clinical trials demonstrate an impressive 15-20% body weight loss over 68 weeks, with sustained results of 17-18% at the two-year mark. The solution for those battling stubborn weight issues.
CoolSculpting Elite: Nonsurgical Fat Reduction
CoolSculpting® Elite emerges as a noninvasive hero, freezing and eliminating stubborn fat cells resistant to conventional methods of diet and exercise. With cold temperatures also known as cryolipolysis technology to kill fat cells, this treatment requires no downtime and boasts gradual, permanent results. Most CoolSculpting® Elite patients are happy with their results after just one treatment and experience only mild side effects, such as numbness, redness and swelling. Patients often experience up to a 25% reduction in fat cells in treated areas, making it ideal for those nearing their goal weight but struggling with persistent pockets of fat.
Emsculpt Neo: Sculpting Muscles and Eliminating Fat
Emsculpt Neo introduces high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM) causing muscle contractions to build muscle, and it does it in such an extreme way (with supra maximal muscle contractions that cannot be reproduced with human exercise) that it also causes fat cells to die. So, where Coolsculpting kills fat cells, Emsculpt Neo builds muscle and kills fat cells. Going beyond traditional exercise, Emsculpt Neo increases basal metabolic rate by growing muscle mass. Clinical trials over six months reveal up to 23% abdominal muscle increase and 27% fat reduction after only four treatments. After one year, the muscle mass was still 17% higher than it was at the beginning of treatment and fat loss was still at 23%. I do suggest to my patients to resume maintenance treatments after that to maintain the results that they achieved..
So, in a time where we are fortunate enough to have some really effective and safe treatment options (all are FDA cleared) to tackle excess weight and stubborn areas of fat bulges, I suggest a combination approach to achieve the best you possible – tempered with healthy lifestyle choices, emotional well-being and exercise routine. Because in the end, beauty from the inside out is what we all truly desire.
