EMSCULPT NEO® – Clinical & FDA-Cleared Applications
For patients who want deeper clinical detail, the following information outlines EMSCULPT NEO’s FDA-cleared indications and how this technology may support rehabilitation, recovery, and functional restoration.
FDA-Cleared Functional Uses
In 2024, EMSCULPT NEO received expanded FDA clearance for stimulating neuromuscular tissue for bulk muscle excitation in the arms and legs for rehabilitative purposes. FDA-cleared indications include:
- Prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy
- Muscle re-education
- Maintaining or increasing range of motion
- Immediate post-surgical stimulation of calf muscles to help prevent venous thrombosis
- Relaxation of muscle spasms
- Increasing local blood circulation
These indications support EMSCULPT NEO’s role in rehabilitation, recovery, and functional restoration.
Clinical Applications
EMSCULPT NEO may be appropriate for post-surgical and rehabilitation patients, individuals recovering from injury or prolonged inactivity, and aging adults experiencing muscle loss. It may also be used when a patient needs muscle re-education and strengthening, or when active individuals are focused on injury prevention and improved performance.
With over 4 million treatments performed worldwide, EMSCULPT NEO continues to expand beyond aesthetics into wellness and functional medicine applications.
