Body Contouring Guide
Body Contouring Guide
It’s not about will power
Why eating less and moving more isn’t helping you shift stubborn fat – and what to try instead.
If your body is resisting diet and exercise, you’re not imagining it. For years, we’ve been told staying in shape is all about discipline and willpower – but that overlooks the very real changes that can happen inside our bodies. From metabolism to hormones, the body can shift in ways that quietly resist even our most consistent efforts. And hitting the gym harder or starting another diet can’t always override what’s happening on the inside.
The good news? Once you understand how to work with your body, real progress becomes possible. This guide takes you through why your body shape is changing and the advanced in-clinic treatments that deliver visible, lasting results.
Welcome to

We combine advanced technology with relaxation to create truly unique aesthetic experiences. Think of the MediSpa as your personal sanctuary, where expert treatments and exceptional care help you age beautifully, naturally and confidently.

Why you’re not seeing the results you want
- You’re in perimenopause, menopause or ‘man-opause’
For women, as oestrogen levels decline, fat tends to redistribute around the middle, the metabolism slows and skin is less resilient. For men, an age-related decline in testosterone (sometimes called ‘man-opause’ or andropause) can have similar effects, particularly when it comes to belly fat.
- You’ve lost muscle tone over time
From our thirties onwards, muscle mass declines naturally. Because muscle helps drive the metabolism, less of it can mean we burn fewer calories at rest – even without changing what we eat.
- You’ve lost weight in the wrong places
When the body sheds weight, it doesn’t always do so where we’d like. The face and chest can lose volume first, leaving stubborn areas unchanged.
- our genes aren’t working in your favour
Our genes can influence our appetite, metabolism and where the body holds on to fat most stubbornly. The abdomen, hips, and thighs tend to be the most common areas.
- Your skin has lost its firmness
Skin that’s lost its bounce can leave the body looking softer and less defined than it really is. Collagen and elastin – the proteins that keep skin firm and supple – begin to decline with age and hormonal shifts. Rapid or repeated weight changes can also leave the skin stretched and less resilient.
- Your body has changed since having a baby
Pregnancy stretches the skin and abdominal muscles in ways the body can’t always rebuild on its own – even with diligent recovery and exercise.
What we can do about it
Whether it’s a change to your hormones, metabolism, muscle or skin that’s driving a lack of results, there’s always something that can be done.
Our MediSpa Director has hand- picked the most advanced body treatments from around the world – chosen to deliver visible results with minimal downtime or discomfort.
We’re the leading destination in Essex for these globally recognised, non-surgical body treatments, each one carefully selected to target:
- Tackle stubborn fat
- Build and tone muscle
- Tighten skin
- Improve skin quality and hydration
We don’t believe in one-size-fits- all. Instead, we combine the right technologies into a personalised plan – tailored to your body, budget and goals.
Each plays a different role – and we’ll help you find the right combination for you.
1 Emerald
Laser
A gentle, FDA-cleared laser that encourages fat cells to release stored fat – which the body then naturally clears away. Rather than destroying fat cells, the laser helps them return to a leaner, healthier state – a more sustainable approach that supports a balanced metabolism and longer- lasting results.
- RESULTS: An average of 6 inches lost over a full course
- PERFECT FOR: all areas except the bust
- TYPICAL COURSE: 8 sessions
2 EMSCULPT
NEO®
he next generation of body sculpting, this FDA-cleared treatment combines high- intensity electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology with advanced radiofrequency to build muscle, reduce fat, and tighten skin at the same time. Each 30-minute session delivers the equivalent of thousands of powerful muscle contractions – something the body simply can’t replicate through exercise alone.
- RESULTS: Average 25% increase in muscle mass and 30% reduction in fat over a full course
- PERFECT FOR: The tummy, thighs, hips, love handles and arms
- TYPICAL COURSE: 4 to 6 sessions
3 LipoFirm
Pro™
Two powerful technologies in a single treatment – TriLipo™ radiofrequency and dynamic muscle activation – working together to deliver fat reduction, lymphatic drainage, and skin tightening. We can tailor treatments to address specific concerns including cellulite, post- pregnancy changes, and stretch marks.
- RESULTS: Skin firming + body contouring in one treatment
- PERFECT FOR: the tummy, thighs, and bum – or any area where fat and skin softening combine
- TYPICAL COURSE: 8 sessions

4 Profhilo®
Body
An advanced injectable treatment that bio-remodels skin from within. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, it doesn’t add volume – instead, a high concentration of stabilised hyaluronic acid stimulates new collagen and elastin production, firming, hydrating, and gradually smoothing crepey skin. Natural- looking results with minimal downtime.
- RESULTS: Particularly effective for crepey skin, post-weight-loss laxity, and age-related skin changes
- PERFECT FOR: The upper arms, abdomen, décolleté, knees, and inner thighs
- TYPICAL COURSE: 2 sessions, 4 weeks apart
5 Sofwave®
Body
This FDA-cleared treatment uses Superb™ Synchronised Ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen and elastin production deep within the skin’s layers – firming, lifting, and smoothing crepey skin where creams and exercise alone can’t reach. Most clients see visible improvement after just one session, with results continuing to develop for up to 12 weeks.
- RESULTS: Safe for all skin tones
- PERFECT FOR: The upper arms, abdomen, hands, décolleté, and above the knees
- TYPICAL COURSE: 1–2 sessions, depending on the level of laxity
