BOdy contouring

Consultations are mandatory, and are important in order to thoroughly address the individual’s area of concern and to answer any questions you may have before the treatment. It also allows us to take a medical history and address any contraindications that may preclude an individual from treatment.

BodyFX/MiniFX uses radio-frequency induced electroporation of the fat cell membrane, deep tissue heating, and suction coupled negative pressure to permanently kill adipose (fat) tissue, allowing us to treat cellulite and areas of stubborn fat. This results in a loss of up to 30% adipose tissue in the treatment area, tightened skin, and a more contoured figure!

Out of the three body contouring systems that are Health Canada-approved, BodyFX/MiniFX has been proven in clinical trials to be the most effective. BodyFX/MiniFX permanently destroys up to 30% of adipose tissue (versus the 22% and 24% that the other two systems boast), and tightens skin by up to 13.7% at the same time. BodyFX/MiniFX is the only system that does both permanent fat cell destruction and skin tightening at the same time, and can target cellulite.

BodyFX/MiniFX is not a weight loss program. Fat tissue weighs very little, especially compared to muscle, so although you likely will not see a drastic change in the number on the scale, you will be losing inches, and visibly see the change in the targeted area as well as feel the difference when wearing your clothes.

As long as you maintain your current body weight and lifestyle, the treatment will be successful. It is important to keep your water intake high and stick to a healthy lifestyle.

Well, it's important to recognize that Body FX/Mini FX is not intended for weight loss or to treat obesity. And in fact, the ideal candidates for Body FX/Mini FX are relatively fit! Simply put, if you just can't get rid of that pocket of unwanted fat with your diet and exercise routine, then you may be a good candidate.

Most people opt for a package of 8 treatments in an area for the optimal results to achieve their fat reduction and/or cellulite reduction goal.

Clients typically start to see results around the 6-8th session, and see optimal final results 6-8 weeks after the final session of the treatment. For this reason, we suggest planning your treatment 4 months in advance of when you would like to see the results.

The treated area will be warm but the process is relatively comfortable as we can adjust temperature settings. It wakes anywhere from 20-60 minutes depending on how many body parts and areas are being treated. During this time, the patient is free to use their phone, etc.

The most commonly treated areas for Body Fx include the stomach, the flanks (love handles), the thighs and the back. Mini FX treats smaller areas such as the chin, arms, bra fat, inner knee and smaller areas of cellulite.

For certain areas of concern, individuals may benefit from a combination of treatments (eg. BodyFX & Plus) to destroy fat cells and significantly tighten loose skin. As every client is different, treatment plans will be discussed in detail at the consultation.
