Body Contouring in Makati: What It Does, and What It Is Not
Body contouring is not weight loss, and every honest version of this page has to start there. It works on localised pockets of fat and on skin tone in people who are already close to their usual weight. It does nothing about the number on a scale.
The reason it gets oversold is that the before-and-after photos of a genuinely good result and the before-and-after photos of eight kilos lost look similar. They are not the same thing and only one of them comes from a machine.
If you are looking to lose weight, no clinic in this city has a device that does it, and the ones telling you otherwise are counting on you not returning to argue.
What a session is like
The consultation measures rather than eyeballs, and separates fat from skin from muscle tone. Bring a realistic goal and we will tell you whether it is one we can meet.
Sixty minutes on the treated area. It is worked, stimulated and drained, and most people describe it as firm pressure rather than discomfort.
Water afterwards, movement that day, and honesty about the weeks between sessions. The treatment and the habit are not alternatives to each other.
When this is the wrong treatment
Weight loss
No device does this. If that is the goal we will tell you at the consultation instead of after the package.
Significant loose skin
Skin that has lost its structure after major weight loss or pregnancy needs a surgeon. Tightening treatments work on mild laxity only.
