About body contouring
Body contouring in a salon or clinic means non-invasive treatments aimed at the look of the skin and body outline: radiofrequency to warm the deeper layers and help skin look firmer, ultrasound cavitation and vacuum treatments applied to areas such as the abdomen and thighs, and manual techniques such as wood therapy and lymphatic drainage massage. Nothing is cut or injected.
Results are modest and gradual, best suited to someone already close to their goal who wants to refine a particular area rather than to lose weight. Treatments are sold as courses, typically six to ten sessions a week or so apart, and most practitioners pair them with advice on hydration and activity. Be wary of any listing that promises specific inch loss or permanent fat removal.
Sessions last 30 to 60 minutes. A consultation should cover medical history first, as some machines are not suitable during pregnancy, with metal implants or pacemakers, or over certain skin conditions.

Where to find it in London
Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Chelsea hold the advanced skin clinics and the flagship brow and lash studios, where consultations come first, treatments are sold as courses and prices run well above the rest of the city. Soho and Shoreditch are the home of the nail art studios and the late-opening lash bars, busy after work and booked solid on Friday evenings. Kensington and Paddington mix long-established neighbourhood salons with threading bars and laser clinics, and Canary Wharf is a weekday market built around lunchtime appointments: express facials, gel manicures and brow shapes squeezed into an hour.

Frequently asked questions
How much does body contouring cost?
Usually £50 to £120 per session depending on the technology and the area treated, with courses of six to ten sessions discounted. Manual treatments such as wood therapy sit at the lower end.
Does body contouring help with weight loss?
No. These treatments aim to improve the look of skin firmness and smoothness in specific areas. They are not a weight-loss method, and reputable practitioners will not sell them as one.
Is body contouring painful?
Most people find radiofrequency warm and comfortable, and cavitation produces a high-pitched buzzing sound but little sensation. Vacuum and wood therapy can feel firm. None should be painful.
