Why Choose a DEXA Body Composition Scan?

Gold-standard accuracy for body fat %, lean mass, and regional distribution (arms, legs, trunk)

Insight into android/gynoid fat and, at many clinics, visceral adipose tissue (VAT) estimates

Clear baseline for nutrition, fitness, and longevity programs

Objective tracking for fat loss, muscle gain, and performance

What to Expect at Your Appointment

Time: ~10–15 minutes of scan time; full visit ~20–30 minutes

Prep: Wear light clothing, remove metal items; avoid calcium supplements 24 hours prior if also doing bone density (follow your clinic’s instructions)

Comfort: Non-invasive, low-dose X-ray; you lie still while the scanner passes overhead

Results: You’ll receive a report of body fat %, lean mass, and regional metrics; staff review highlights and answer questions

DEXA body composition is typically a cash-pay wellness service; pricing varies by market. Many clinics offer bundle packages for repeat tracking. Check each provider profile for details or request a quote when you book.

FAQs

Is DEXA safe?
Yes; it uses a very low radiation dose and is non-invasive. If you’re pregnant or think you might be, consult your provider before scanning.

How often should I scan?
Most clients scan every 8–12 weeks to measure change. Athletes or active weight-loss programs may choose more frequent intervals.

DEXA vs smart scale or bioimpedance?
DEXA provides regional detail and higher precision, making it ideal for goal-based coaching and medical fitness.

Can I add other tests the same day?
Many sites also offer RMR (metabolism testing) and VO₂ (cardio fitness). Check the provider’s page for availability.
