Apart from running and working out, stimulating fat and muscles by massage or machine can also help you to achieve your toning, sculpting and body contouring goals. Read up on these various toning and slimming treatments to tackle stubborn bulges!
Laser Clinics Asia
Achieve a slimmer body tailored to you! At Laser Clinics Asia, experienced CoolSculpting Therapists are here to help you achieve your body goals. CoolSculpting’s claim to fame is being the world’s #1 fat freezing treatment, as it uses patented cooling technology to freeze unwanted stubborn fat cells and provide up to 27% fat reduction for a natural, sculpted appearance. Best of all, it’s needle-free, non-surgical, and doesn’t require sedation or numbing, so you’ll be on your way immediately after one session.
It works by targeting fat cells underneath – in a controlled cryolipolysis procedure – by being cooling them down to freezing temperatures. There’s also no need to worry about freeze burns as the device carries FreezeDetect®, an inbuilt safety measure that’ll shut the system down instantly if it detects the skin is getting too cold.

Trimmings Salon & Spa
Homegrown salon and spa Trimmings has long been a favourite amongst EL readers. Surrounded by lush greenery, the Dempsey hideout is an ideal escape for top-to-toe pampering. The signature Slimming Massage ($95 for 60 minutes) helps to sculpt problem areas without pain or downtime. It also has the added benefits of relaxing the mind and relieving muscle tension – so what’s not to love?
The session starts with a brief warm-up massage to loosen any tightness, followed by a full-body oil massage using paraben-free Aveda products. Formulated with organic and naturally derived ingredients, the premium spa-grade products are suitable for all skin types, even those with sensitive skin. The body contouring massage incorporates a combination of lymphatic and deep tissue massage to stimulate circulation and increase blood flow to the muscles. You’ll be asked for your preferences before the toning treatment begins, so do specify the problem areas you’d like your therapist to focus on.
The results after one treatment? Post-massage bliss, along with a tighter-looking tummy and waist, all in one slimming treatment.
Special offer! Until 31 March 2022, enjoy an extra 15 minutes of massage when you book a session! Simply quote “Expat Living Readers’ Promotion” when booking online to redeem the offer.

The Chelsea Clinic
As part of your body slimming and toning programme, here are two FDA-approved, non-invasive toning treatments that are designed to effectively shape your physique with minimal downtime. EMSculpt NEO incorporates both radiofrequency (RF) energy and HIFEM+ technology for a dual effect of body contouring and skin tightening. If fat elimination is your goal, CoolSculpting delivers precise and targeted cooling underneath the skin to destroy the fat cells.
The clinic’s Dr Vanessa Phua combines both treatments and curates them for your body type. The body-sculpting plan begins with CoolSculpting for fat reduction. Then, after a significant amount of fat is reduced, loose skin is left, which is where the EMSculpt NEO takes the spotlight. It tightens sagging skin with RF while simultaneously toning your muscles by inducing supramaximal contractions. Imagine completing 20,000 squats or sit-ups in one short burst! EMSculpt NEO is also great for diastasis recti, enabling the core muscles to gradually regain strength after childbirth.
Sit back, relax and let the machines do the work!

Aesthetic Studio Wellness
The Cutera TruSculpt Flex is a state-of-the-art, non-surgical body contouring device that utilises electrical stimulation for the improvement and sculpting of muscle tone, muscle strength and muscle development in the abdomen, thighs and buttocks. It’s a “next-generation” electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) device, which is US FDA-approved for improving muscle development.
Three different algorithms are used to simulate a full-body workout at an intensity that would be unachievable through conventional exercise alone. It’s the equivalent of 54,000 squats, sit-ups or lunges in 45 minutes. It allows targeting specific muscle groups and is said to improve posture and reduce back pain by up to 30 percent.
The three slimming treatment modes each deliver a different workout by replicating intensified squat, crunch and twisting actions via safe electrical currents that are delivered through electrodes. The 45-minute session takes place lying down and the intensity can be adjusted to suit your individual preference.
There’s no downtime, and results are visible in as little as four sessions, with continued improvements noticeable for up to three months.
Special offer! Quote “Expat Living” to enjoy a special price of $188 on a TruSculpt Flex treatment for a first-time trial (one per customer). Valid till 31 July 2022.
