Freeze It or Flex It:
The Rise of Non-Invasive Fat Reduction

Exploring CoolSculpting and Emsculpt at Esmee Clinic


Jun 10, 2025 . By Dr. Parag Mahadik

Not Ready for Surgery? You Don’t Have to Be.

Placeholder Let’s face it—not everyone wants to go under the knife. Whether you’re juggling a hectic lifestyle, feeling nervous about anaesthesia, or just looking for a gentler way to sculpt your body, non-invasive fat reduction is here to help.

At Esmee Clinic, we offer two cutting-edge technologies—CoolSculpting and Emsculpt—to help you reduce fat, tone muscle, and contour your body without surgery, needles, or downtime. It’s all about achieving your goals on your terms.

COOLSCULPTING: Freeze Away Stubborn Fat

CoolSculpting uses a process called cryolipolysis—basically, controlled cooling that freezes and destroys fat cells. Your body then naturally flushes out those damaged cells over the following weeks.

Best For:
Love handles
Lower tummy pooch
Bra bulges
Thighs, arms, and double chin

How It Works:
A cooling applicator is placed on the target area.
You’ll feel intense cold for a few minutes, then numbness sets in.
Sessions last 35–60 minutes per area.
No downtime—you can hop right back into your day after treatment.

When to Expect Results:
Visible reduction in 4–6 weeks.
Final results by 12 weeks.
One to three sessions may be needed, depending on your goals.

EMSCULPT: Burn Fat, Build Muscle

Emsculpt is unique—it’s the only non-invasive treatment that melts fat while simultaneously building muscle. Using high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM), it triggers 20,000+ supramaximal muscle contractions in a single session—far more than you could ever do at the gym.

Best For:
Abdomen (core definition)
Buttocks (non-surgical lift)
Arms and calves

How It Works:
Pads deliver pulses that cause powerful muscle contractions.
These contractions strengthen muscles and break down fat cells.
No pain, no sweat—just lie back and let the machine do the work.

When to Expect Results:
Improved tone and firmness in 2–4 weeks.
Peak results in 6–8 weeks.
Typically done as a series of 4 sessions over 2 weeks.

Which One Is Right for You?

Here’s a quick cheat sheet to help you decide:

Goal Best Option
Pinchable pockets of fat CoolSculpting
Want to tone muscle + reduce fat Emsculpt
Crave stronger abs or a ‘perkier’ bum Emsculpt
Need a jumpstart before hitting the gym Emsculpt
Just want a smoother silhouette CoolSculpting

Pro Tip: Many of our patients see the best results when they combine both treatments. For example, CoolSculpting can smooth out stubborn fat, while Emsculpt tones and tightens the underlying muscles.

What’s the Catch? Are Results Permanent?

Good news: Fat cells treated with CoolSculpting are gone for good. Similarly, the muscle gains from Emsculpt will stick around if you maintain an active lifestyle or schedule occasional maintenance sessions.

But remember—these treatments aren’t weight-loss solutions. They’re tools to refine your shape once you’re already near your ideal weight. Think of them as the finishing touches to your fitness journey.
