The 3 methods
to achieve a more defined waistline
The stubborn fat on your flanks can make you appear larger in proportion. We focus on using effective technologies to reduce excess fat on your flanks, helping you achieve a slimmer waistline. Let’s explore 3 methods to shape your waist. We will start with:
Method 1: Utilising Radio Frequency (RF) technologies for tightening saggy skin on your flanks.
Radio Frequency (RF) technologies are utilised for distributing heat energy to provide optimal skin contractions to the excess fat layers within your flanks. The RF energy stimulates the production of new collagen and improves skin elasticity. You will achieve a perfect S-shaped waist, with no cellulite or saggy skin appearances. There are 2 types of RF technologies with their own unique strengths and modes of operation in targeting excess fat on the flanks. Let’s have a look at each of these types of RF technologies:
Body FX (Radio Frequency RF) program
An effective technology that has a 3 in 1 functionality, which combines the ability to break down excess fat cells, cellulite and tightening of the skin on your flanks.
The Body FX program is a combination of 2 effective technologies. Together, it permanently destroys fat cells, cellulite and tightening of the skin on your flanks within the treatment’s allocated timeframe. The 2 powerful technologies that make-up the Body FX program consists of both the Radio Frequency (RF) and High Voltage Ultrashort Pulse Duration (RF) energies. This combination accurately targets and shocks the fat cells, thus eliminating the unwanted fat on your flanks. It is recommended that a total of 8 treatment sessions are completed. It takes approximately 3 months after the final session, to see effective results of having proportionately smaller and slimmer-looking waist.

Breaks down cellulite for a firmer and slimmer-looking waist.
The Forma Plus program is a non-invasive treatment utilising RF energy for tightening and rejuvenating the skin, due to the excess fat cells in the flank areas. The Forma Plus program provides a continuous exposure to a temperature above 40°C, which is beneficial in stimulating the production of new collagen and improves skin elasticity around the waist. The RF technology ultimately breaks down cellulite for slimmer and tightened skin in the immediate flank regions.

Method 3: CoolShaping2 Program — Fat Freezing Technology
The CoolShaping2 program offers a non-invasive approach to contouring, specifically targeting stubborn fat on the flanks (sides of the body). Using cryolipolysis cooling technology, this treatment applies controlled cooling to the fat cells in the subcutaneous layer, causing them to crystallize and gradually be eliminated by the body through natural metabolic processes.
This approach is effective and requires no surgery or injections. With a variety of applicator sizes, the CoolShaping2 program can be customized to target the unique contours of the flanks, offering a precise and tailored treatment to enhance the natural shape of the body’s sides.
CoolShaping2 Program (Cryolipolysis Cooling Technology)
Targets stubborn flank fat with controlled cooling for a more defined waistline.
CoolShaping2 program is a non-surgical treatment that uses cryolipolysis to target stubborn fat on the flanks. The controlled cooling crystallizes fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body. With various applicator sizes, treatments can be customized to the contours of the flanks, offering a tailored approach. Typically, 1–3 sessions are recommended, spaced several weeks apart, for optimal results.
CoolShaping2 Program Post-Treatment Results
Visible results may begin to appear within 4–6 weeks, with continued improvements over the next 2–3 months as the body naturally eliminates the treated fat cells. Over time, the flanks may appear slimmer and more contoured, enhancing the overall body shape.
