**3.1 Straightforward case**

Patient A presented with a localized region of abdominal fat and lax muscles. His chief concerns included muscle laxity and overall body contour. The patient underwent a set of HIFEM treatments. Two applicators were placed over the abdominal area with HIFEM intensity being gradually set to a maximum tolerable level, reaching 100% during his second session. The subject regularly goes to the gym for weight training 2–3 times a week and was looking for an improvement in muscle tone, strength, and laxity. His results are shown in **Figure 1**.

#### **Figure 1.**

*Patient A - male 36 years old, BMI 26.6 kg/m2 , four treatments administered with HIFEM. 12 weeks after the last treatment (right), the subject showed significantly improved body contour and posture. The muscle laxity was resolved while the abdomen looks and feels tighter and stronger. The distribution of subcutaneous tissue changed considerably in response to the muscle enhancement.*
