Different Body Types And Fat Distribution
- Men: Android obesity associated with men having apple-shaped bodies suggests excess fat deposit in the belly region. It indicates high levels of visceral fat and increased risk of suffering from severe health conditions.
- Women: Gynoid obesity associated with women having pear-shaped bodies indicates excess fat accumulation around the hips and thighs. A high waist-hip ratio may suggest that you are more prone to metabolic diseases than others
Why Is Inch Loss Critical For Enjoying Good Health?
A high body fat percentage poses a significant health risk, yet it often goes undetected due to the following reasons:
- Most of us focus on losing kilos and attaining the ideal BMI (Body Mass Index). However, what we may forget to factor in is our body fat percentage. Metabolic obesity is a critical indicator of unhealthy visceral fat. According to WHO, a ratio of waist and hip circumference or WHR of .9 in men and .85 in women is a predictor of heart diseases, brain stroke and Type 2 diabetes.
- A simplistic fitness regimen that includes diet control and workouts fails to reduce the stubborn fat deposits. Getting back into shape is more challenging for people who have hormonal issues, genetic propensity, insulin resistance, and metabolic diseases such as diabetes, hypercholesterolemia and heart-related illnesses than it is for others.
- The significance of Body Composition Analysis (BCA) remains an unheard topic even among health-conscious people. We lack awareness about the different types of fats and the specialised treatments available for each. Your belly fat problem may be due to both excess subcutaneous fat, found directly under the skin, and visceral fat stored in the abdominal cavity around vital organs like liver, pancreas and intestines. Only a qualified medical professional can recommend a suitable treatment based on your BCA

Before & After Results Of Inch Loss Treatment
Frequently Asked Questions
Any individual above 18 years of age with a BMI below 30 who wants to attain the desired shape and get rid of the fat bulges from specific areas of the body such as the abdomen, flanks and arms can opt for Oliva’s body contouring treatment and enjoy inch loss. Those who are eager to lose thigh, belly, waistline and arm fat without any surgical procedure or those who failed to get back into shape even after following strict weight loss programs are also ideal candidates for it.
However, pregnant or early lactating women (before completing three months post-delivery) and patients having chronic heart and liver diseases or those on pacemakers should avoid opting for this treatment.
People with BMI above 30 may opt for our Beyond Weight loss program immediately to eventually be eligible for our body contouring treatment.
The fat loss process starts when the body burns fat and converts it into usable energy which, in turn, causes fat cells or adipocytes to shrink. The lymphatic system disposes of the destroyed fat cell membranes eventually.
Inch loss service at Oliva is an entirely safe procedure performed under the guidance of experienced doctors. The use of clinically-proven and USFDA-approved ultrasound and radiofrequency-based technologies help to eliminate unwanted fat non-surgically. It also helps define specific body areas with the help of collagen remodelling. The skin tightening benefits of radiofrequency technology delivers a sculpted look minus the sag and pain.
Leading doctors at Oliva usually recommend 4-8 sessions to help you achieve the desired inch loss with an interval of up to 7 to 14 days between each visit. However, your expert dermatologist will decide the exact number of sessions you need while customising your treatment plan based on the fat, sag, cellulite or a combination of these in the target area, and other factors that vary for every individual.
Yes, the results can be long lasting in the target area if you follow the diet recommended by our experienced nutritionists and exercise regularly.
No. The health condition and medication of critically ill individuals may not be compatible with the inch loss treatment.
You can monitor your inch loss and measure the results by noting a significant drop in your outfit size at the end of the treatment and a toned appearance of the target area.
Losing inches is as crucial as reducing weight in your journey towards maintaining a healthy waist size and ideal waist-to-hip ratio. Abdominal obesity due to excess fat accumulation around your waist increases your risk of metabolic syndrome. So, losing inches from specific areas of the body and following a healthy diet and a workout routine can help you prevent lifestyle diseases and remain in shape even after the treatment is over.
