Understand All Facets Of Your Weight
At Pure by Alpha Dermatology, we believe that understanding your body composition is key to achieving your health and fitness goals.
That’s why we offer the InBody scan, a state-of-the-art tool that takes precise measurements of your fat, muscle, and water composition. These details help our team customize your wellness plan, track your progress, and optimize your results.
How the InBody Scan Works
The InBody scan uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to send a painless, low-level electrical current through your body. Because muscle, fat, and water conduct electricity differently, the device can accurately measure their distribution. The scan takes less than a minute and produces a comprehensive report detailing your body fat percentage, muscle mass, hydration status, and more. This data supports personalized recommendations for diet, exercise, and lifestyle adjustments.
