During your treatment, radiofrequency energy is directed from the tip of the treatment device to the skin, warming the skin to 42 – 44 degrees Celsius (108 – 11 degrees Fahrenheit). At this precise temperature, collagen begins to undergo structural changes that are key to rejuvenating the skin.

Emtone is performed in a series of 4 – 6 treatments for best results. Pricing range for a series of treatments is $2,000 – $4,200, depending on the treatment areas.
Most women will notice cellulite at some point in their lives and it does not only affect those who are overweight. Many slender people struggle with cellulite, which is caused by many factors. Skin laxity happens to everyone and is caused by aging, genetics, sun damage, and collagen and elastin loss. Emtone Skin Tightening and Cellulite Treatment helps with both cellulite and skin laxity, providing clients with smoother, more toned, and youthful-looking skin.
Emtone Skin Tightening and Cellulite Treatment can treat any part of the body and addresses the five key causes of cellulite dimples including loss of skin elasticity from deteriorating elastin and collagen fibers, enlarged fat chambers, poor blood flow, fluid and metabolic waste retention, and the fibrous bands that pull down the skin and cause fat to bulge.
Emtone emits acoustic waves that disrupt and stimulate the skin, which improves circulation and discourages fluid collection that can exacerbate bumpy cellulite appearance.
Combining targeted pressure energy with radiofrequency allows a degree of results that cannot be achieved by either technology alone. This FDA-cleared treatment is a quick, non-invasive in-office treatment that offers results you will love. As a non-surgical procedure, there is no downtime or recovery.

Both treatments and technologies are by BTL, but they address completely different concerns and areas. Emtone is designed specifically to tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of cellulite through radiofrequency and targeted pressure. Emsculpt tones muscles by forcing targeted muscles into 20,000 supramaximal contractions in 30 minutes. However, these two treatments are very complementary and can be performed back-to-back. If you want tighter skin, less visible cellulite, and stronger, more defined muscles, then both Emtone and Emsculpt might be for you.
Are you ready to find out more about Emtone? Schedule a complimentary consultation with RefinedMD today and let’s start building your custom treatment plan together.
In the weeks and months following your treatment, new collagen growth is kick-started and that means you’ll start seeing skin that is visibly more toned with less laxity and a reduced appearance of cellulite. Emtone has many benefits, including:
It’s both. Thanks to Emtone’s two approaches with both mechanical and thermal energy delivery, clients enjoy skin that is both tighter and more toned as well as less visible cellulite. Most people do not struggle with “just” cellulite, but rather a combination of cellulite and skin laxity. When you address both issues, you get beautiful results and a rejuvenized appearance.
It will take a few months, but you will start to see some improvement a few weeks after your treatment. Collagen and elastin production do not happen automatically with any treatment, including Emtone. Taking photos of your progress is an excellent way to gauge your results.
