Standard weight doesn't tell the whole story. Body composition analysis reveals your exact percentage of fat mass, lean muscle, bone density, and water — giving a true picture of health.
Tracks Real Progress
During weight loss or fitness programs, the scale may stall while you're gaining muscle and losing fat. Body composition testing reveals the real metabolic changes happening in your body.
Guides Personalized Treatment
Baseline and follow-up scans allow your provider to fine-tune your nutrition, exercise, and medical treatment plan based on measurable data rather than estimates.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How is body composition analysis performed?
We use DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) or bioelectrical impedance analysis — both quick, non-invasive procedures that produce detailed, accurate measurements of fat, muscle, and bone in each body region.
How accurate is body composition analysis?
DEXA scanning is considered the gold standard in body composition assessment, with accuracy within 1–2% of fat mass. Our technology provides highly reliable results for tracking meaningful change over time.
How often should I have a body composition test?
Testing every 8–12 weeks during an active weight loss or body-remodeling program allows you to see measurable progress and adapt your plan accordingly.
What do the results tell me?
Your results reveal fat mass, lean muscle mass, visceral fat level, bone density, and hydration status — broken down by body region (arms, legs, trunk). These numbers directly inform your treatment and fitness plan.
