FAQ

1. How much should I pay for fat reduction and body trimming?

That depends on how much weight you would like to lose and what your objective is. The volume and cost of individual packages are proportional to the number of pounds you want to lose and how you decide to set the objective of your weight lost programme.

Upon our complimentary consultation where different aspects of your body condition are measured and analyzed, we would tailor a best fit course for you for your consideration. The final decision lies in your hands.

2. How many times do I have to come in per month? And how long is each visit?

We usually recommend our clients to visit at least once to twice per week. Each session would be an hour and a half, or even longer. While more frequent visits will lead to faster results, clients are free to work around their schedules to come in for treatments.

3. Should I take pills to lose weight?

As this option can cause a lot of possible side effects during the course, such as weakening of your blood circulation, trembling hands, insomnia, anxiety and diarrhea, we never recommend our clients to do so. Pill takers also tend to get weight rebound once you stop taking pills. Thus, we strongly suggest dietary modification combined with our safe technologies approved by FDA as the best solution to losing weight.

4. Should I go on a diet to lose weight?

Going on a diet is definitely a great way to lose weight provided it is supervised by professional nutritionists. On the other hand, improper dieting impedes the normal functioning of your body, which would result in lethargy and slowing down of metabolism, ultimately increasing excess fat deposition in the body due to an increased rate of energy and nutrient absorption by body cells.

At MENCE, we advocate safe and sustainable approach in managing your weight and health. Our dietitians will work with you based on realistic goals to encourage a long-term dietary and behavioral modification. Therefore even after the treatment course, you will stay healthy and not experience a weight rebound.

5. Should I go to the gym and exercise to lose weight?

Yes, exercise is highly recommended to not only lose weight and keep yourself healthy. Yet, it is very difficult to find time to rest amidst the huzzle and buzzle of a city life, let alone go to the gym to work out. Therefore, by visiting MENCE, you can kill two birds with one stone while avoiding any possibility to injure yourself during active exercise. Our fat trimming which is followed by skin toning will also prevent the development of flabby skin commonly seen as a result of intensive exercise and rapid weight loss.

6. Are there any side effect?

Our non-invasive method does not only produce no side-effect, it also improves your health condition. Different advanced equipment and physio-therapy method are used to pinpoint different fat tissues; and when matched with a balanced diet as suggested by our experienced dietitians, results will be more vivid in a shorter period of time.

7. How much could I lose in one month?

The rate of weight loss is closely related to individual metabolic rate and age. For instance, a healthy 45 year old adult with no specific chronic conditions should be able to lose an estimated weight of 25lbs in a month’s time. On the other hand, for an adult of the same age who bears chronic diseases or major overweight problems is suggested to lose 5% to 10% of the initial weight in the first month to decrease morbidity.

8. Any guarantee?

We are the most experienced and the only skincare and body toning centre for men in Hong Kong. As the first beauty and wellness centre for men which obtained the international standard certification of ISO9001-2000, our standard in quality management and devotion in meeting needs of customers are recognized. Moreover, most of our clients are introduced by referrals; and along with the many successful cases under our belt, we are confident in achieving results for clients.

9. Are the treatments effective and equipment safe?

Our treatments are effective in terms of reducing both pounds and inches for our clients. On top of the complimentary consultation where we can gain a better understanding of your body conditions before treatment begins, the progress of both your weight and inch reduction will be monitored and recorded in your chart during the course of your treatment. We will also take photos of your body in your before and after-treatment states so you can compare the results with your own eyes. To date, there is no one single case where our client cannot achieve weight loss if they receive treatment at MENCE and eat healthily as proposed by our professional nutritionists.

The equipment that we use is also approved by the US FDA so they are not only safe but also technologically advanced to bring out the best result in the shortest period of time without any side effect.

10. Would my weight rebound easily?

Never, as long as you maintain a healthy and balanced diet post treatment. Our method is based on the principle of improving your body circulation; therefore it is unlikely for weight to rebound.
