- For most patients, 4 to 8 treatments are recommended over the course of 2 to 4 weeks to reach their body contouring goals
- Maintenance treatments are recommended.
- Follow your usual diet and exercise routine to maintain treatment results
FDA cleared for 3 areas of the body
CoolTone® causes involuntary contractions which strengthen the muscle fibers in the treated area, leading to a stronger, firmer, and more toned appearance. Treatment areas include the abdomen, glutes, and thighs.
How long does CoolTone® take?
Each treatment typically takes 30 minutes. For most patients, 4 to 8 treatments are recommended over the course of 2 to 4 weeks to achieve body contouring results.
What is EMSCULPT NEO?
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. Clinical studies showed on average a 25% growth in muscle volume.

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 broad appeal as it can treat patients up to BMI 35!

What is microneedling?
Microneedling is a nonsurgical method of skin rejuvenation that enhances skin’s smoothness and luminosity. The team at McGuiness Dermatology & Plastic Surgery uses the SkinPen microneedling system to restore healthy, younger looking skin
The SkinPen is a handheld device with several tiny needles at the tip. These needles deliver controlled micro-injuries across the surface of your skin. The micro-injuries trigger your body’s natural healing response, which leads to an increase in collagen and elastin.
Collagen and elastin provide the structure that creates firm, youthful skin. However, after age 20, your body produces 1% fewer collagen and elastin proteins every year.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, body contouring, or body sculpting, can eliminate fat, shape areas of the body and tighten skin.
Body sculpting, also known as body contouring, is a non-surgical, safe technique that eliminates fat in targeted areas like thighs, abdomen, upper arm, love handles and many other areas of the body.
Once the cell freezes, it collapses and it triggers the cell to die. During this process, your body excretes the dead fat cells through your lymphatic system. These fat cells then exit the body through fecal matter, urine, and sweat.

- No surgery, incisions, or anesthesia
- Quick, 15-30 minute procedure
- No downtime for recovery
- Low risk of side effects
Microneedling is also a versatile treatment, capable of treating the skin in most areas of your face and body.
What should I expect after a microneedling treatment?
You should notice improvements in your skin within a week after your first microneedling procedure. Depending on your needs, the team at McGuiness Dermatology & Plastic Surgery may recommend multiple treatments spaced four to six weeks apart. Follow-up treatments may be necessary to maintain optimal results.
Microneedling doesn’t require recovery time, so you can resume normal activities immediately after leaving the office. Side effects are minor, but you may experience some redness or swelling after the procedure. These side effects typically subside within two to four days.
