01 · What we look at
Fat mass
An estimate of how much of your weight is body fat and how it trends over time.
How we measure
Clarity comes first.
When progress feels unclear, body composition estimates offer another perspective. We consider them alongside your routine, preferences and goals to inform a practical plan.
Body composition readings are estimates. We look at patterns over time, alongside the way you feel and live.
Body composition
What your weight
is made of.
Your weight adds everything together. Body composition estimates help us ask more informed questions about your progress. These measures overlap; they are not separate amounts to add together.
02 · What we look at
Muscle mass
An estimate that helps put changes in total weight into perspective.
03 · What we look at
Body water
Context for the fluctuations a bathroom scale cannot explain.
04 · What we look at
Calculated indicators
Calculated indicators such as visceral fat rating and metabolic age need careful context. They are not a verdict on overall health.
A different perspective
One number.
Not the
whole picture.
A bathroom scale cannot distinguish between fat, muscle and water. A change in the total can hide different changes underneath.
That is why Kosa pairs repeat body composition readings with weekly conversations. The data and your experience belong together.
Hydration, food intake and recent activity can affect readings. Consistent conditions help us compare them responsibly.

A little clarity
Good questions.
Honest answers.
What does a body composition scan show?
The analyzer estimates fat mass, muscle mass and body water, alongside other calculated indicators. We review these in context and compare repeat readings. A scan is a coaching tool, not a diagnosis.
How often will I re-scan?
Regular re-scans are part of coaching. We will explain your measurement schedule at the consultation, with measurements taken under similar conditions so comparisons are useful.
How should I prepare?
Ask us for the preparation instructions before your first visit. Similar timing, hydration and clothing help make repeat readings comparable. Tell us about relevant medical circumstances so suitability can be checked.
Does a scan hurt or take long?
The scan is non-invasive and takes a few minutes. A visit with a walk-through of the results usually fits into about 15 minutes.
