T-Shape 2

Non-invasive body contouring. Warmth, a rolling massage, and back to your day.

We're looking forward to meeting you. Here's everything to know before you come in.

How it works

The short version.

T-Shape 2 combines radiofrequency, low-level laser, infrared light and a vacuum massage head. Radiofrequency warms the deeper layer of the skin, where collagen is laid down, and the vacuum head lifts and rolls the tissue to move circulation through the area. It is a course of sessions spaced apart, because most of the work happens between appointments.

How it feels

Most people describe it as a strange sensation rather than a painful one.

Downtime

None. Some warmth or pinkness in the area settles quickly.

Your appointment

What happens, step by step.

  1. 01
    A physician consultation first

    Every first visit starts with a physician. They look at what you came in about, go through your history, and tell you honestly what will and will not help before anything happens.

  2. 02
    Get comfortable

    The area is exposed and a conductive gel goes on. Nothing is injected and there is no numbing to wait for.

  3. 03
    The session

    The handpiece moves over the area in passes. It feels like warmth that builds and a firm rolling pull. Say the word and the settings come down; nothing about it is meant to be endured.

  4. 04
    Back to your day

    No dressing, no compression garment, no restrictions. Drinking water and moving normally is the whole of the aftercare.

"I went in for a Botox consultation and left feeling so well taken care of. They walked me through my options, explained that I actually didn't need Botox yet, and suggested other treatments that better fit my goals."

Questions

Asked before you.

Will I lose weight?

No. This is body contouring, not weight loss. It treats an area you point at rather than your body weight, and it does not replace diet or exercise.

How many sessions will I need?

That is set at your consultation, because it depends on the area and where you are starting from. It is a course rather than a single visit.

When would I see a change?

Gradually, across the course and for a while after it. There is no dramatic day-one change, by design.
