Body Composition Analysis in Chromepet, Chennai

A body composition analysis measures what your weight is made of — body fat, skeletal muscle, total body water and an estimate of the visceral fat around the organs — using a bioelectrical impedance analyser. It exists because the bathroom scale cannot tell fat loss from muscle loss, and a plan judged only by the scale can look like it is working while it quietly is not.

What you get

Body Composition Analysis, explained simply

A body composition analysis splits your weight into body fat, skeletal muscle, total body water and an estimate of the fat around your organs. A bathroom scale cannot tell fat loss from muscle loss; this can. Every weight and shape plan at the clinic starts with one and is measured against it at each review, and the doctor reads the numbers with you.

Done in Chromepet, Chennai. Results vary from person to person — the doctor tells you what to expect at your FREE consultation.

Most patients notice

  • Fat, muscle, water and visceral-fat estimate — not just a weight
  • A recorded baseline your plan is measured against
  • Repeated at reviews, so progress shows even when the scale stalls
  • Numbers explained to you, not posted as a verdict

The details

What to expect, honestly

How it works

  • A very small, imperceptible electrical signal passes through the body via the analyser's contact points
  • Fat, muscle and water conduct that signal differently, which is how each compartment is estimated
  • Readings are estimates, so conditions are kept similar at each visit — time of day, hydration, clothing
  • The consultation is built around the numbers: the doctor reads them with you and the plan is set against that baseline

Sessions & downtime

A reading takes 15–20 minutes including the discussion. It is repeated at each review — typically every four to six weeks — under similar conditions, because the trend across readings matters far more than any single number.

None. The analysis is painless and non-invasive — you stand on the analyser and hold the sensors for under a minute — and you carry on with your day immediately.

Aftercare

  • Nothing to recover from — the useful habits are the ones that keep repeat readings comparable
  • Book reviews at a similar time of day, ideally not straight after a meal, a workout or a large amount of water
  • Keep your reports — the trend across months is the honest measure of whether a plan is working
  • Bring the numbers to every review so the plan is adjusted against evidence, not impressions

When we would not treat

  • Anyone with a pacemaker or other implanted electrical device — the analyser passes a small current, so we track progress with tape and scale instead
  • Pregnancy — readings are unreliable and active weight treatment waits anyway
  • Straight after a heavy meal, alcohol or intense exercise — we would rather reschedule the reading than record a misleading baseline
FAQ

Body Composition Analysis questions, answered

Quick answers before you book. Anything else, ask the doctor at your FREE consultation.

Ask the doctor

How accurate is a body composition analysis?

The readings are estimates, not laboratory measurements — hydration, meals and exercise all nudge them. That is exactly why we repeat the analysis under similar conditions and judge the trend across visits rather than any single number.

What will the report actually tell me?

Body-fat percentage, skeletal muscle mass, total body water, an estimate of visceral fat around the organs and an estimated resting metabolic rate. More usefully, the doctor tells you what those numbers mean for your plan — that conversation is the point of the measurement.

Do I need one before my consultation?

It is normally the first thing done at a weight or body consultation, so the doctor is planning from your numbers rather than a guess. If you already have recent reports from elsewhere, bring them — a longer trend is more useful, not less.

Does it hurt? Is the current safe?

It is painless — the signal is far too small to feel. As a precaution it is not used with pacemakers or other implanted electrical devices, which is a standard rule for this type of analyser, and we simply measure a different way instead.

What does it cost?

It is part of the weight and body assessment rather than something sold on its own. The consultation fee, and anything included in it, is confirmed when you book — before you come in, not after.

How often should it be repeated?

Once per review cycle — usually every four to six weeks. Measuring more often mostly records hydration noise, not progress, and we would rather show you a trend you can trust.
