Build muscle and reduce fat. Please read this before your appointment, and keep it handy afterwards.

Before After

Your appointment at a glance

Lower Ground Floor, 154 Buckingham Palace Road, SW1W 9TR. 2 minutes from Victoria Station.

Please arrive 5 minutes early so we can get you settled.

Your appointment includes a consultation with your practitioner before the treatment. Your booking confirmation shows the full appointment time.

Before your treatment

Stay hydrated
Drink at least 2 litres of water a day in the days before your treatment and throughout your course. Good hydration helps the energy spread evenly through the tissue.
Limit alcohol and caffeine
Both can dehydrate you. Where possible, keep them to a minimum for 24 hours before treatment.
Eat enough protein
A balanced, protein-rich diet before and during your course helps your muscles recover and develop.
Arrive with clean skin
The treatment area should be free of creams, lotions, oils, SPF and self-tan on the day.
Hair removal
Where needed, the treatment area should be clean shaven so the applicator makes good contact with the skin.
Remove metal and jewellery
Please remove jewellery, piercings and metal accessories from the treatment area before your session.
Remove electronic devices
Phones, smartwatches and fitness trackers need to come off before your session.
Wear something comfortable
Loose, comfortable clothing makes it easy to access the treatment area.
Sun exposure
A tan is fine, but the treatment area should be free of recent sunburn or irritated skin.
Avoid other treatments in the area
Please avoid other aesthetic or skin treatments on the same area for the time your practitioner advises.
Tell us about any changes
Let your practitioner know before treatment if anything has changed in your medical history, medication, skin or general health since your consultation.

What we’ll check when you arrive

Your consultation form is complete (it's emailed to you when you book).
Any changes to your health, medication or skin since you booked.
The treatment area is clean and free of makeup, creams, SPF and self-tan.
Jewellery and metal are removed from the area. For body treatments, phones and smartwatches too.
No recent sunburn or irritated skin on the area.
You tell us about any implants (metal or electronic, e.g. a pacemaker) or if you might be pregnant.
Then we'll talk you through the session before we start.

After your treatment

No downtime
You can go back to your normal day straight away. We suggest avoiding intense exercise on the treated area immediately after your session.
Mild muscle soreness is normal
Your muscles may feel sore the next day, like after a hard workout. This usually eases within 24 to 48 hours. Light stretching or massage can help.
Keep drinking water
Keep to 2 litres of water a day throughout your course.
Go easy on alcohol and caffeine
Both can dehydrate you and slow muscle recovery. Try to keep them to a minimum for 24 to 48 hours.
Eat well
Protein-rich foods help your muscles recover and grow.
Stay active
Results are best when combined with regular strength and cardio training, which also helps maintain them.
Complete your course
For the best results, complete your full course and keep up any maintenance sessions we recommend.
