Why Hydration Is Key to Getting the Best Emsculpt Neo Results

Top Tips, Treatments
July 28 2025

Getting the Best from Your Treatment Starts with the Basics

At The Nantwich Clinic, we’re here to help you get the most from your Emsculpt Neo journey. While the technology does the heavy lifting (literally), your aftercare choices can have a big impact, and hydration is one of the most important.

If you’re investing in advanced treatments to tone, sculpt and strengthen your body, don’t let something as simple as water hold you back.

1. Hydration Supports Muscle Contractions

Emsculpt Neo works by triggering 24,000 supramaximal muscle contractions in a single session. These deep contractions are what help build and tone muscle – but they rely on your body being properly hydrated.

  • Muscles are made up of around 75% water.
  • Without enough fluid, they can’t contract or recover as effectively.
  • Dehydration may lead to weaker muscle response, meaning less efficient results.

Tip: Start increasing your water intake the day before treatment and continue for at least 48 hours afterwards.

2. It Helps Flush Out Fat

The radiofrequency element of Emsculpt Neo targets fat cells, breaking them down so they can be naturally eliminated via your lymphatic system. This process depends on hydration:

  • Water helps the body detox efficiently
  • It supports lymphatic drainage and waste elimination
  • Inadequate water slows the process and may limit visible results

Think of water as your body’s natural fat-flushing assistant, essential to making the most of your treatment.

3. It Minimises Soreness & Speeds Recovery

Feeling a little sore after your first few sessions is completely normal, your muscles are being worked in a powerful, targeted way. It won’t feel like you’ve done 24,000 sit-ups though!

Hydration plays a role in recovery, too:

  • Helps reduce cramping, stiffness, and fatigue
  • Supports healthy circulation and muscle healing
  • May reduce inflammation and post-session tenderness

Staying hydrated is a simple way to help your body bounce back more comfortably.

4. It Enhances Your Skin’s Appearance

While Emsculpt Neo builds lean muscle and reduces fat, the appearance of your skin plays a big role in your overall result.

  • Well-hydrated skin looks smoother, firmer, and more radiant
  • Water supports collagen health and elasticity
  • Dry or dehydrated skin may look dull or uneven

So alongside your treatment, make sure your hydration supports both your shape and skin tone.
