As demand for weight loss support grows, patients are increasingly seeking out solutions from aesthetic practices that will help them look and feel their best with minimal to no side effects. The ideal treatment is a device that combines multiple technologies for effective results to help to meet the demand.

eMVFit from Weero Co. Ltd. (Suwon, South Korea) is a state-of-the-art device launched in 2024 that represents a breakthrough in technology. Integrating radiofrequency (RF), electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), vacuum technology and cooling functions into one comprehensive system, the eMVFit supports body contouring and weight loss goals.

According to Kyungtae Bae, MD, cosmetic surgeon and chief director of It’s Me Clinic (Sejong, South Korea), the combination of RF, EMS and vacuum work synergistically to maximize the benefits of each for more effective body contouring and sculpting. “EMS stimulates muscles to induce powerful contractions and relaxation, while RF heats and destroys fat cells simultaneously,” reported Dr. Bae. “This combination allows for simultaneous fat reduction and muscle strengthening, while increased muscle temperature enhances EMS stimulation. As a result, body fat reduction and muscle hypertrophy occur simultaneously, leading to a firmer and more defined physique.

“Additionally, the combination of RF and vacuum technology significantly improves skin elasticity and reduces cellulite,” Dr. Bae continued. “Vacuum technology is revolutionizing skincare by lifting the skin to allow RF energy to penetrate deeper into the dermis. This technique enhances skin texture and stimulates the lymphatic system to facilitate the removal of waste and boost metabolic activity. The dual action of lifting and RF energy infusion promotes improved overall health and rejuvenated skin.”

eMVFit provides fully automated, hands-free treatments across various modes. Each output is meticulously programmed, ensuring real-time automatic adjustments of EMS and vacuum patterns, while maintaining RF and cooling levels during treatments. Customizable protocols, accurate temperature sensors and multiple safety features, including impedance checks, ensure safety and provide consistent results.

An innovative design allows eMVFit to operate up to eight handpieces at once, enabling extensive coverage and streamlined treatment of large areas in a single session. This capability boosts efficiency for practitioners and enhances the treatment experience for clients. “After completing all sessions, the majority of participants (94.5%) rated the improvement in body contours as ‘good’ or ‘very good,’” Dr. Bae shared during an Aesthetic Surgery and Laser Society (ASLS) symposium in Bangkok, Thailand, in August 2024. “The percentage of patients rating the treatment as ‘good’ or ‘very good’ increased from 20% immediately after one treatment to 44.5% one month later, indicating that the effects improved over time and satisfaction increased.”1

eMVFit enhances practitioner workflow, making it ideal for settings with frequent staff changes, diverse patient needs and evolving technologies. “Clients receive personalized treatments tailored to their needs, while practitioners appreciate the device’s ease of use and its ability to deliver exceptional results,” Dr. Bae added.

With its powerful performance and user-friendly design, eMVFit is quickly establishing itself as an essential piece of equipment in the aesthetic specialty for body contouring and skin rejuvenation. Practitioners can benefit from stronger client relationships by providing consistent, reliable results, while clients experience significant improvements in body contour and skin condition.
