When Diet & Exercise Aren't Enough
Your hard work deserves to show.
Sometimes the issue isn't how much effort you're putting in.
It's that certain concerns simply can't be addressed through diet and exercise alone.
You may be dealing with:
Stubborn abdominal fat or love handles
Fat that remains after weight loss
Loose or crepey skin
Cellulite or uneven texture
Loss of muscle tone
Areas you'd like to look firmer or more defined
Changes to your body after pregnancy, aging, or weight changes
That's where body contouring can help.
At The Skin Clinic, we look beyond the number on the scale. We evaluate your body composition, fat distribution, muscle tone, skin quality, areas of concern, and individual goals to create a treatment plan specifically for you.
Because the best body contouring treatment isn't the same for everyone.
More Than Fat Reduction
Body contouring isn't just about losing inches.
Depending on your goals, your customized treatment plan may focus on one or several components of body composition.
REDUCE STUBBORN FAT
Target localized pockets of fat that remain despite healthy lifestyle habits.
BUILD + DEFINE MUSCLE
Strengthen and tone targeted muscle groups to create greater definition.
TIGHTEN LOOSE SKIN
Improve the appearance of loose, lax, or crepey skin and restore a firmer look.
SMOOTH CELLULITE
Address the factors contributing to cellulite and improve the appearance of uneven skin texture.
REFINE YOUR CONTOURS
Combine technologies to address fat, muscle, and skin for a more comprehensive approach.
Different Technologies. Different Purposes.
Muscle stimulation, laser treatment, radiofrequency and mechanical pressure work in different ways. Device settings and treatment areas matter.
We explain the proposed treatment, its intended use, likely benefits, risks and limitations before you decide. Results vary and may require maintenance.
Is Body Contouring Right for You?
A consultation helps assess local fat, muscle tone, skin laxity and cellulite separately. Your health history, implants, medications and expectations affect suitability.
Tell us about pregnancy, implanted electronic devices, metal in the treatment area and recent procedures. We may recommend another approach when a device is unsuitable.
More Than Just Fat Reduction
Start With an Assessment
We review your goals, health history, body composition and the area you want to address. Your consultation helps distinguish muscle, local fat, skin and cellulite concerns.
Compare Your Plan
Discuss the recommended technology, number of visits, expected timeline, recovery and total investment before starting.
Review Your Progress
Follow-up can include photographs or measurements. We explain maintenance and what the treatment can realistically achieve.

Which Body Contouring Treatment Is Right for Me?
-
I WANT TO REDUCE FAT + DEFINE MUSCLE
EMSCULPT NEO® Body Sculpting
Compare this option when muscle tone and local contour are your main concerns. The device combines electromagnetic muscle stimulation with radiofrequency energy; suitable areas and settings depend on your assessment.
Sessions commonly take about 30 minutes. Expect strong muscle contractions and warmth. Temporary soreness can occur.
Your plan explains recommended visits, realistic changes and maintenance. For separate functional goals, ask about our EMSCULPT functional wellness service.
-
I WANT TO REDUCE STUBBORN FAT
SculpSure® Non-Surgical Fat Reduction
A laser option for suitable localized fat pockets, rather than overall weight loss. Controlled laser heating targets fat beneath the skin while contact cooling protects the surface.
A treatment commonly takes about 25 minutes. Warmth, tingling or tenderness can occur. Changes develop gradually; the manufacturer describes results developing over roughly 6–12 weeks.
Your provider reviews suitable areas, risks, session count and expectations. Maintaining a stable weight helps support your contour. Results vary.
-
I WANT TO TIGHTEN LOOSE OR CREPEY SKIN
EXION® Body
Discuss this option when skin laxity, texture or local contour is part of your concern. Your provider evaluates the skin and area before recommending an applicator and treatment plan.
EXION Body uses radiofrequency and targeted ultrasound energy. Ask about expected changes, the treatment series, side effects and recovery for your proposed settings.
Non-surgical treatment cannot remove significant excess skin. Improvement varies, and surgical assessment may be more appropriate for some goals.
-
I WANT TO SMOOTH CELLULITE
EMTONE®
An option for the appearance of cellulite and uneven texture. EMTONE combines radiofrequency with mechanical pressure; its massage component is intended for temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite.
Discuss thighs, buttocks or another suitable area during your consultation. Your provider explains the treatment series, sensation, risks and maintenance.
Cellulite is common. Treatment does not guarantee its removal, and changes may be temporary.
One Body. Multiple Concerns. One Customized Plan.
Why Combination Treatments Can Make the Difference
Most people don't have just one concern.
You may have stubborn abdominal fat and loose skin.
Or you may want less fat and greater muscle definition.
Or perhaps you've lost weight and now want to address the remaining fat, lax skin, and lack of tone.
Instead of trying to make one technology do everything, we can combine treatments strategically.
Your plan might include:
SculpSure® → Reduce stubborn fat
EMSCULPT NEO® → Build and define muscle + address fat
EXION® Body → Tighten and refine skin
EMTONE® → Improve cellulite and texture
The result is a treatment plan built around your body—not a machine.

Body Contouring Questions, Answered
-
There isn't one treatment that's best for everyone.
The right technology depends on what you're trying to change. SculpSure® primarily targets stubborn fat, EMSCULPT NEO® addresses fat and muscle, EXION® Body focuses on skin tightening and refinement, and EMTONE® targets the appearance of cellulite.
Your consultation helps us determine which treatment—or combination—is appropriate for your body and goals.
-
SculpSure® is specifically designed for non-invasive fat reduction and is an excellent option when stubborn fat is your primary concern.
EMSCULPT NEO® combines technologies designed to address both fat and muscle, making it a better fit when muscle strengthening and definition are also part of your goal.
Some clients may benefit from combining the two.
-
No.
Body contouring is designed to improve specific areas of your body rather than produce significant overall weight loss.
If your primary goal is weight loss, we can discuss whether our medical weight management and wellness options may be a better starting point before body contouring.
-
Timing depends on your goals, health and ongoing weight changes. A consultation helps decide whether treatment now or reassessment after your weight is more stable makes sense. These procedures refine targeted areas; they do not provide the health benefits of weight loss or replace medical weight management.
-
Yes. Body contouring can be especially helpful after weight loss when you're left with specific areas of stubborn fat, reduced muscle tone, or skin laxity.
The appropriate treatment depends on what's contributing to the area you're concerned about.
-
It depends on the technology, treatment area, starting point, and your goals.
Some treatments are performed as a series, while others may require fewer sessions. We'll create your recommended treatment plan during your consultation.
-
Duration depends on the treatment and your response. Fat reduction, muscle definition, skin appearance and cellulite changes have different maintenance needs. Weight changes and aging can affect your contour. Ask what improvement is realistic and whether repeat treatment is likely; no result is guaranteed.
-
Pricing depends on the device, areas and recommended sessions. We explain the plan, total investment, maintenance and current package options before you decide. Ask our team about available financing and its terms.
-
Preparation and recovery depend on the device and treatment area. Review medications, implants, recent procedures and health conditions with your provider. Follow the instructions for your treatment. Temporary redness, tenderness, swelling or soreness may occur; your provider explains relevant risks and when to contact the clinic.
-
A consultation reviews your treatment area, health history and expectations. Tell us about pregnancy, implanted electronic devices, metal in the area, medications and recent procedures. Suitability differs by device. We may recommend another approach or a surgical consultation for goals that non-surgical treatment cannot address.
