Read on to find out all about body contouring cost, body contouring service, non-surgical body contouring, and body contouring procedure.
What is a Body Contouring Clinic?
Body contouring means the same thing as body sculpting. It sculpts your body’s silhouette by targeting persistent excess adipose tissues for removal, eventually helping you to achieve a more desirable figure. It can get rid of excess fat, shape or contour body areas, and tighten skin. It is especially helpful in addressing these areas:
- Ineffective weight loss
- Extra skin after significant weight loss
- Stubborn fat bulges you can’t get rid of even after dieting and exercising
- Loose, saggy, or wrinkled skin due to natural ageing
Having excess body fat is one of the world’s most common health and cosmetic problems. We might have excess fat due to an unhealthy diet, sedentary lifestyle, genetics, or aging.
At Eeva, by gaining insight into our patients’ wider aesthetic concerns, we can uncover outcome goals and identify areas requiring treatment. We also encourage patients to share their body goals during a consultation. This enables our doctors to develop a personalized treatment plan to achieve the desired result and fulfil your long-term body goals.
Services that Body Contouring Clinic Offers
In Singapore, body contouring clinics offer a range of surgical and non-surgical solutions. Medical technology allows doctors to remove unwanted bulges of fat and tighten loose folds of skin. These technologies allow you to achieve a shapely body comfortably with no downtime. A dream body and better health are now achievable with body contouring in Singapore!
For surgical body contouring services, some clinics offer liposuction, abdominoplasty, and bariatric surgery. Typically, only patients with very severe overweight issues like very high BMI will opt for surgical body contouring procedures. Although you get immediate results, the downtime is quite long. There are also surgical risks like bleeding, infections or scarring. The recovery process may be quite painful. Also, more than one surgery may be needed. For instance, more surgery may be needed to tighten the skin post-surgery.
For liposuction, a thin tube or cannula is used to suction the fat from body areas. Abdominoplasty is also known as a tummy tuck, and it removes fat in the middle and lower abdomen area to tighten the abdominal muscles. Bariatric surgery reduces stomach size and food flow through the gastrointestinal tract and is suitable for those with BMI above 40.
The best long term approach to body contouring is non-surgical body contouring treatments that can address the underlying cause, to quickly and effectively reduce excess fat. Non-invasive body contouring is non-surgical. Through low temperatures, electromagnetic fields, or radiofrequency, fat cells are broken down and destroyed. After removing excess fat cells, the remaining fat cells in your body do not replace themselves or regenerate. Hence, you will have fewer fat cells than you did before, looking thinner afterwards.
Non-invasive body contouring methods don’t require anaesthesia or incisions, with very little downtime. It is also safer. Many patients can return to normal activities after treatment even though some swelling and soreness may be felt.
Here are the most popular non-surgical body contouring services in Singapore:
- CoolSculpting
- Vanquish
- Exilis
- HIFU
- Radio Frequency
CoolSculpting and Vanquish are used for fat reduction. CoolSculpting does not have any downtime. It uses cryolipolysis to freeze and destroy fat cells and can remove around 20-25% of fat cells each time. Vanquish doesn’t require any downtime, and uses the thermal energy of non-contact selective radiofrequency (RF).
Exilis, HIFU, and Radio Frequency are used for skin tightening. Exilis combines RF and ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen and tighten elastin fibres. HIFU uses thermal energy from high intensity focused ultrasound, and stimulates collagen production in the SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) layer. Radio Frequency uses radiofrequency energy to heat skin tissue, and produce new collagen fibres.
Eeva Clinical Body Contouring Treatments are designed by our warm and personable Singapore-certified lady medical doctors to help you sculpt your body into a slender shape, working on hard to reach areas including tummy slimming, thigh slimming and arm slimming. You may not be overweight, but you can still sculpt certain body parts to look and feel more confident.
Our doctors will assess each patient holistically and customize a suitable treatment journey for your specific concern. Eeva Body Contouring Clinic currently offers 2 medical-grade body contouring solutions: Venus Legacy Body Contouring and LinearFirm HIFU Body Contouring.
Venus Legacy Body Contouring is an Israeli technology that is FDA-approved and is effective for belly fat reduction, arm slimming, thigh slimming, and skin tightening. LinearFirm HIFU Body Contouring is the world’s first LinearFirm technology. As the world’s fastest HIFU, it is KFDA-approved. It is effective for tummy fat reduction, bra fat removal, arm slimming, and thigh slimming.
Will you be uncomfortable during these treatments? The answer is No!! With no pain, no needles, they are non-invasive with no downtime. They are relaxing, comfortable, and therapeutic. We have many patients who even fall asleep during the treatments because they are so gentle and soothing. The clinic has a private body room designed especially for your comfort. Post treatments, our therapists will massage customized body ampoules for enhanced cellulite removal, fat breakdown, lymphatic drainage, and skin firming results.
You won’t really need to prepare for a non-surgical body contouring procedure, except to drink more water as it speeds up the elimination of dead fat cells. A hydrated body also helps make the procedures more comfortable. There may be some side effects like very mild redness and soreness, but these typically go away after a few days.
We encourage all our patients to maintain a healthy lifestyle to enhance their treatment results. Exercising every day, drinking a healthy diet, and having lots of water would be ideal.

Venus Legacy uses Multi-Polar Radio Frequency and Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields to produce heat under your skin’s surface. This process naturally increases collagen and elastin fibres, while reducing the volume of fat cells. An adjustable pulsed suction called VariPulse works to pull the skin upwards so that the energy can travel deeper, providing more comfortable and effective treatments. The end result is a slimmer and more sculpted body, tighter skin, and eliminated cellulite. Enjoy a relaxing treatment experience that delivers noticeable results!
LinearFirm is the world’s first linear HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound). Using a linear-firing pattern, it is the latest generation of HIFU technology. How can LinearHIFU help you? Doing this treatment results in effective fat reduction, the boost of collagen production for improved skin elasticity, smoothened wrinkles and tightened skin.
