hi newbride168
oh dear, my friend tried it. she went for a few treatment and keep on bouncing back cause its juz water lose. and they also keep pestering her to sign package. if u really want effective one, i can recommend u where my cousin slim down.
i'm not kpo, but really enjoy sharing and helping ppl. hee...
juz wanna do a small sharing with u. my cousin went for acupuncture slimming at marine parade and she see visible results in the 2nd week. to my surprise, she shed off 4kg in the 1st month. after her 3 month course, she lose total of 14kg.
its really amazing that i have never imagine. but its really good to see the new her. i can tell that she seems to be more confident now than before who usually quiet. as her cousin, i really feel proud and happy for her bcoz of her strong determination and seeing her looking good. and even now her mum is taking up the course. ha.... its safe and effective. and the most important factor, its not expensive at all.
not like those other slimming places who keep on asking u to sign this and that. they will tell u wat u need and u sign once and no more. they dun hardsell at all. if u want a fast effect within 3months at affordable price, i guess this is the best place.
if u r keen, can e-mail me. i can ask my cousin to arrange to share how she did it. [email protected], pls put on subject (cousin slimming). enjoy slimming and looking good.

Hi,
I went body perfect b4 @ east branch. Initially signed up cos the consultant so friendly & assured me that she will helped me to meet my target of losing 5kg. I asked her what if I cant lost 5 kg if i signed up. She told me she will do what she can to helped acheive my goal.
Who knows. During the session, they keep asked me sign on further programms.
I refused to sign further and at the end of programme I did not even meet the target of 5 kg lost and guess what that consultant just keep quiet and "act blur" to forget what she promised me.
I did not pursue. I just take it as lesson learnt. Never trust this sales talk too much even if they promised to help u achieve ur goals.
Just sharing my experience.

agree with anna_anna,
i went to LWM and Marie france before and total spent almost 10k, of course was not straight away they quoted me that price but is everytime i paid visit to these salon they kept physco me to sign up more due to my over weight body.
anyway i finished my acupuncture slimming program abt 2 mths but still go back to meet my consultant for monitoring .total fat loss 16.9 KG as i had reached my target, the cost is much more cheaper than LWM and MF.

Hi ,
I went to Body Perfect Tanjong Pagar few days ago after signing up for a discounted course of around 40 treatments. I have to say that it was one of the most terrible experiences you could encounter, with 2 of their sales & management staff : Centre Manager Joyce Chu and Assistant Manager Serene Chua.
The incident started before the treatment when Asst. Mgr Serene Chua was taking my measurements and I noticed that the measuring tape was feeling quite loose around me. However I could not see what she was doing as she was behind me. I started asking her a few questions but she was avoiding the answers. I tried to look back to see what she was doing but she won’t let me & told me not to look as she can't take proper measurements.
I started to get suspicious and looked back only to see that she had her own fingers inside the measuring tape!! She insisted that it was only for the purpose of "holding the tape". I asked her to start again the measurements without her fingers inside but of course she refused. After much arguing, we started again with me helping her to hold the tape. The differences were astonishing!!!!!! Absolutely all the measurements she took were at least 2 to 4.5 inches bigger than the real ones, which is far more than just her fingers measured inside the tape. It was clear what she was trying to do!!
I asked her to either take the correct measurements or send someone else who will. She wanted to continue only to see again that although the tape was slightly tighter than before she is now placing it on an angle – starting at lower points and finishing higher - more of an elongated oval rather than a circle. She insisted that that’s how they do it and it is the correct way to measure. I couldn't believe what I was hearing!! I asked that she stops and sends in someone else.
So here comes the Centre Manager Joyce Chu, who starts all the measurements again. After taking a few, I looked at her list only to see that hers are now about 2 inches more than the ones I just took previously. She insists that I should trust her and that this is the correct way to measure because that is how dress makers do it !!!. I could not believe how a manager could come up with something so stupid to say!! I have to say that I’ve been involved in the cosmetic surgery industry for the past 18 years and have worked and trained in Italy, Canada, Japan and Australia - but never thought a business of this caliber offering rather expensive treatments, would employ such dishonest, incompetent and unprofessional staff- two real bimbos and both MANAGERS !! Go Figure!!
To cut the story short, the manager was also trying to add a few extra inches. I told her that I want a copy of all the measurements taken, which she bluntly refused. As I just started the treatment, ( cream painted on with a painting brush, wrapped in glad wrap and with a blanket over it), manager Joyce Chu walks back into the room and says that after speaking to her boss, he agreed that I shouldn’t have the list of my measurements because it is their property. Just goes to show who the owners are!!! I insist on copying them, but by now she is rather worked up about it and angry raising her voice at me. Yelling at the top of her voice keeps telling me that I get my treatments at a discounted price and that I should be very happy and not complain. Her voice was covering mine, but I asked her to leave the room and yelled back that I want to speak with her boss. She continued with the screaming asking that I listen to her!! And that if I am not happy to stop the treatment!! That I did, after nearly two hours of frustrations and arguing.
Of course, she refused to give me the details of her boss or the measurements taken.
I am still waiting on my few hundred dollars to be refunded!
However, any opportunity arises to review this business I will gladly share my story with anyone so those interested can decide for themselves.

hi all,
found a thread in Flowerpod Forumss, hope it helps.. my advise is to do check out other forumss on whatever you need b4 committing.
Below is wat i copy from there.

I have signed up a package from LF last friday.. Cost around $3.6K !!! Each time i think of it, i feel heart pain.
is 20 sessions plus the products (S-factor, B&H) . Give me quite a lot
For the first two weeks, i am asked to detox first.. Today is my 4th day. Lost around 1Kg. Will start for the acupture slimming end of this mth. Hopefully by end of Apr, I can really see weight loss and by end of the whole sessions (around 3mths), i can lose at least 10Kg or not. I'm weighing 65kg and been putting 10Kg for the past 3 years
Anyone went to LF? Do PM me to share your experience. We can also motivate each other to get our ideal weights
-------------------------------------------------
Hi Beannie...
Just came across your post. I am with the same acupuncture centre(@ MP) as well.
How much weight did you lose? Is the dietary plan working & did not weaken your health?
Sad to said... I din lose much weight(slimmed down ard 5kg) because I did not follow 100% of their dietary plan.
I feel e dietary plan is not quite ideal if you are a sports person like me.
It weaken my stamina greatly due to low sugar & zero carbo intake.
I was even panting when i climb the stairs during the first mth. Sigh...
After struggling for ard 2 mths, I finally gave up cos I feel it not a right thing to do if you want to slim down in a healthy way.
Conclusion is if you did not follow their dietary plan. You won't slim down. Acupuncture is useless too.
After I stopped following their dietary plan, I went for 6 sessions of acupuncture sessions but to find
tat I only slim 0.1kg of internal fat. *Shake head* I did not over eat, i only ate half the portion of the
original bowl as I need carbo & protein to maintain my exercise routine such as jogging, swimming or
cardio workout. Once you intake carbo, the dietary plan dun work anymore. Please think twice to see
if you can really commit to the strict dietary plan & zero basic stamina(for climbing stairs).
I learnt my lesson. The only way for healthy slimming will be: Low carbo, high protein & lotsa exercise.
I am no longer with the acupuncture centre now. With the low carbo, high protein & lotsa exercise theory,
I am still slimming down in term of weight & inches. Try this & best of all... its FREE!

Hi Ladies,
Been a silent reader of this thread. While reading this thread, it was really encouraging to see podders posting that said they lost 10+ kgs after 3 months. Coz I'm getting married in Oct, I tot y not just give it a try. If it really works den good for me! So I went for the consultation to hear more and see what really makes it tick.
Seriously, I tink dun any of us need to pay them to ask them to help us slim down... Total cut of carbo diet, drinking shakes 6 days a week, who wldn't slim down if they are on a diet such as this??!!
Honestly, you must have a really strong mind la.. the consultant there can speak super well and sound totally convincing. But at the end of the day, when you hear about the diet plan they have for you, it's really pointless to waste such $$.
As long as you cut carbo, your weight sure drop one
Best is to find EXERCISE buddy to motivate each other to slim down =)

LOL. ya 2.6k is alot actually. I had a friend who used to worked for them, but no more already. she did say that alot of pple slim down in that 3 months. i see how it goes. got extra money $$$$$ den go. haha
Hi all,
I am an ex-customer of the slimming centre @ MP. My advice is dun sign up too.
Acupuncture is just their selling point. In fact, I agreed that they r no difference from normal slimming centre.
I personally feel that acupuncture dun help much.
What really help is the diet & shakes. Why not spend your $$$ on shakes straight away?
You will definately slim down if u r on shakes for 2-3 meals.
Btw, their normal meal refers to lean meat & vege only. No carbo such as rice & noodle are allow.
If you wan noe more, feel free to PM me. I am willing to share my experience.

I need to tone down abit before my wedding, was wondering if Royal BodyPerfect is effective or not. It's my first time approaching a Slimming Center, have seen alot of discussion about Slimming Centers, is it really that bad?
Anyone out there who have tried Royal BodyPerfect, please share your experiences with me. If not, any other good slimming center to recommend?
Thanks alot!

Hi fetus,
So far I find their service quite ok. The branch tat I went to,, the people quite friendly.. other outlets me not so sure.
Btw, I do have quite a number of package letting go at 6k, which I bought earlier at 18k.
As I am going overseas, I might not be able to finish all by then, so I am letting go those package tat I have yet to start.
If u are interested, can email me for the type and total number of treatments. No obligations.

Hello ladies, you should take a look at THe Right Approach. or TRA in short. It is a patented program that teaches you to be in control of your own health and its simple, safe and yet effective. The best part to me is that I know that the program lasts 3mths. SO at least you have a time frame to look at your results, of course if you are on a heavy side, do consider taking more than 3 mths to lose to your ideal weight. Recently I met a person who take 3 sets of TRA (that's a total of 9 mths period) and he lose 42 kg beautifully. This is what I mean by letting your body lose the fat healthily. 3 sets of TRA costs only abt $6k ($2080 per set of 3mths). I think at the end of the 9mths, spending 6K for his health is really worth it! If you are keen, I can intro you to this consultant of mine who has been in the business for close to 4years and she also have a medical background, so she usually use TRA to also help her clients lose weight to manage their chronic diseases better.

I know abt TRA, a wonderful weight loss, i would say fat loss program w no rebound! My mum was on this program in 2007 n now she is still at her ideal weight of 51kg (lost 10kg in total). Amazing thing is her visceral fats (fats around organs) drop from 13 to 5 (normal range is below 9).

Hello Ladies, I know I am replying to a very old post here.
But just to give reminder to other ladies that havent sign up, and are even considering. DONT SIGN UP! useless and VERY BAD ATTITUDE. #nudge to Carmen Z, fellow forumer who posted at 2009. Thanks for sharing the story and they are really very bad , I agree with you too.
I am new victim to this so called "trying to help you slim down" Body Perfect. I read some post by some other ladies in the thread and decided to share it as I have been burned, and to prevent future victims.
I came down to the store because they claimed they have partnered with Scoot and are giving me some complimentary massage as a recent scoot customer. Usually I don’t entertain such calls, but I don’t know why this time I really came down because I heard Scoot’s name. bad decision, I know.
When I came to the Sengkang store, the people in store is friendly, then come the time manager come and talk to me in a room. Manager of store Joyce use pressure and shaming tactics saying Im fat, got bulging tummy and REALLY NEED HELP if I want to be pretty (she asked me what would I want to achieve If I did lose the 5kg weight that I am over).
Let me get this straight that I am not obese, just very slightly overweight. I am super healthy and always exercise.
So in weakness of the moment, I believed her and sign up for smallest package, and considering the letters got said if want to cancel only have to pay for surcharge. Paid 3.7k for 10x package. Even though she keep saying buy the unlimited one lah, 6.5k only ~~~> frankly I am not prepared to spend so much on anything. Even this purchase is stretching it. She did one tummy rub on me using some sort of ampoule which she claimed is very expensive (300$ if buy separatrly) but was given FOC to me because I sign package.
Night time 10pm I came back and then rethink again… bad decision, because I actually have always exercised regularly but just late 3 months never again and have to entertain a lot of relatives coming n bring them eat good dinner after work, I gain the last 2kg. Last time I was only 3 kg overweight.
But I suddenly feel why pay 3.7k for 10 times tummy rub package? Exercise and less carbo can already lah. Btw this tummy rub make my tummy very pain and its VERY UNCOMFORTABLE as they rub and press the machine on your tummy VERY HARD. Later on I asked my parents, they said also not to do this kind of thing like tummy massage, as they have a lot of knowledge of chinese medication they scared might damage the other organs at tummy/blood vessels around the area if done incorrectly.
Then I googled the review, read some bad one, and also found this forum.
OMG, see so many complaints. Then I decided I really don’t want it anymore go back to the store next day 11am to ask for cancellation. I am mentally prepared to pay for the 15% surcharges. The staff told me have to wait for manager that is at Plaza Sing Branch. Have to wait she come at 7pm and ask me come back later.
When I come back at 7pm the manager Joyce come out her true nature. She callously tell me CANNOT REFUND. U WANT TO REFUND U MUST PROVE U GET CANCER AND SHOW DOCTOR LETTER TO ME then can refund. What kind of shit attitude is that???!
So angry and keep pointing to the letter that it is written there customer can get cancellation for first 30 days, bearing the cost of 15% surcharge, but now she said no cancellation. There is another clause about refunds which they DIDN’T GIVE A COPY to me, but stealthily ask me to sign. OTHER GALS BEWARE this tactic!
I remember that clauses is the one page together with health declaration (no diabetes, no heart problem , etc) and underneath the non-related to the earlier clause saying about no refund to bank surcharges and GST
She gave me a very smug face also, knowing that my money is in her hands
Bank also refused to help cancel the package and said it has to be the store that cancel it themselves, as it is a retail dispute.
SO I went back and tell my family. My Bro in law came again to the shop with me and argue back the points stated on the letter.
End up store manager said she will hv to wait until mo day to discuss with her BOSSES again,
but likely will charge around 2kfor surcharges + GST+ first instalment + bank charges + ampoule + tummy rub + .
When 15% surcharges out of 3.7K is only around 500$!!!! What a rip off! And still want to curse people get cancer sumore. I was really unhappy about this as they not even honouring contracts, overcharging and showing VERY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE (if that is even service at all!)
I was back and forth to this place many2 times, the store manager wont let me speak to her “management/boss” and also claimed she cannot do refund for me straightaway but must be their accountant do one.
So I reported the matter to CASE and also seek the police and lawyer help. Case doesn’t really want to intervene as they are not CASE ACCREDITED company, but can only help with coming out one letter and I bring it to “negotiate” with company.
After long and many discussion and back and forth to many places (police, lawyer, a lot of phone calls, gone back to the store) End of story, they charged me with $900 (paying for 15% surcharge + ampoule $312 + admin fee $50), a refund of $2812 which my lawyer asked me to take and then I move on with my life. He advise I can go and sue them in small claim tribunal, but It will be a long process and not very worth it as it might only give me a couple hundred $$ addition, and not full amount.
Let them eat my money for things I have not even used (see complimentary became a few hundred dollars charges)
For this refund, AGAIN she asked me sign the refund form with the thing she “helped negotiate and waived off” and NEVER GIVE A COPY!! Other gals BEWARE, if a company ask you sign something and not giving you a carbon copy of it, likely they are trying to hide something! (this is my lesson to learn too and I have told all my family member and friend)
Moral of story:
1. Let them eat my money, but let karma find you. And please don’t go around cursing people to get cancer when people nicely just asking you for cancellation and willingly letting you charge for 15% when package not even started yet. Joyce (I don’t know her surname, but other forumer have mentioned JOYCE CHU, so should be the same person. She is Malaysian. I don’t know from where, but I have known many Malaysian lady and a lot of Malaysian friend too, and none are as callous and horrendous as this woman. Bring a disgrace to the country name. Just my bad luck of meeting her). never before in my life got such people curse customer.
2. None of my family and close friends understand why they give me so much trouble for wanting to cancel my package. Because even if they only get 15%, they already earn $ by doing nothing. Family suspected company is in financial trouble.
3. Ladies, When you feel overweight and not confident, please don’t go into sliming company especially this one. SUPER BAD ATTITUDE. They will sure pressure you and make you feel bad to make you sign up and give them money. This is what happens to me. I am just overweight by abit and people fat shaming me already.
Just lose weight by exercising more and eating lesser carbo (LIMIT rice, noodle bread, biscuits).
4. This happens last month at October 2018 and my money is just back into my credit card account about two weeks ago (early Nov 2018). I am happy to report that by eating less rice and exercising, I have shed off my 1kg weight within this past 1/12 month. So mainly I eat rice/bread once or twice daily and at dinner I eat only some meat and vegetables. Works wonders.
5. If people trying to overcharge you, please do not stay quiet and do report to police, and CASE.
I feel really stupid and was even blaming myself when I went to report, but actually I was told it is good to report, even if I do not take legal action this time. because then there is a record and if they already have a lot bad reports, the law will do something about it.
But just to give reminder to other ladies that havent sign up, and are even considering. DONT SIGN UP! useless and VERY BAD ATTITUDE. #nudge to Carmen Z, fellow forumer who posted at 2009. Thanks for sharing the story and they are really very bad , I agree with you too.
I am new victim to this so called "trying to help you slim down" Body Perfect. I read some post by some other ladies in the thread and decided to share it as I have been burned, and to prevent future victims.
I came down to the store because they claimed they have partnered with Scoot and are giving me some complimentary massage as a recent scoot customer. Usually I don’t entertain such calls, but I don’t know why this time I really came down because I heard Scoot’s name. bad decision, I know.
When I came to the Sengkang store, the people in store is friendly, then come the time manager come and talk to me in a room. Manager of store Joyce use pressure and shaming tactics saying Im fat, got bulging tummy and REALLY NEED HELP if I want to be pretty (she asked me what would I want to achieve If I did lose the 5kg weight that I am over).
Let me get this straight that I am not obese, just very slightly overweight. I am super healthy and always exercise.
So in weakness of the moment, I believed her and sign up for smallest package, and considering the letters got said if want to cancel only have to pay for surcharge. Paid 3.7k for 10x package. Even though she keep saying buy the unlimited one lah, 6.5k only ~~~> frankly I am not prepared to spend so much on anything. Even this purchase is stretching it. She did one tummy rub on me using some sort of ampoule which she claimed is very expensive (300$ if buy separatrly) but was given FOC to me because I sign package.
Night time 10pm I came back and then rethink again… bad decision, because I actually have always exercised regularly but just late 3 months never again and have to entertain a lot of relatives coming n bring them eat good dinner after work, I gain the last 2kg. Last time I was only 3 kg overweight.
But I suddenly feel why pay 3.7k for 10 times tummy rub package? Exercise and less carbo can already lah. Btw this tummy rub make my tummy very pain and its VERY UNCOMFORTABLE as they rub and press the machine on your tummy VERY HARD. Later on I asked my parents, they said also not to do this kind of thing like tummy massage, as they have a lot of knowledge of chinese medication they scared might damage the other organs at tummy/blood vessels around the area if done incorrectly.
Then I googled the review, read some bad one, and also found this forum.
OMG, see so many complaints. Then I decided I really don’t want it anymore go back to the store next day 11am to ask for cancellation. I am mentally prepared to pay for the 15% surcharges. The staff told me have to wait for manager that is at Plaza Sing Branch. Have to wait she come at 7pm and ask me come back later.
When I come back at 7pm the manager Joyce come out her true nature. She callously tell me CANNOT REFUND. U WANT TO REFUND U MUST PROVE U GET CANCER AND SHOW DOCTOR LETTER TO ME then can refund. What kind of shit attitude is that???!
So angry and keep pointing to the letter that it is written there customer can get cancellation for first 30 days, bearing the cost of 15% surcharge, but now she said no cancellation. There is another clause about refunds which they DIDN’T GIVE A COPY to me, but stealthily ask me to sign. OTHER GALS BEWARE this tactic!
I remember that clauses is the one page together with health declaration (no diabetes, no heart problem , etc) and underneath the non-related to the earlier clause saying about no refund to bank surcharges and GST
She gave me a very smug face also, knowing that my money is in her hands
Bank also refused to help cancel the package and said it has to be the store that cancel it themselves, as it is a retail dispute.
SO I went back and tell my family. My Bro in law came again to the shop with me and argue back the points stated on the letter.
End up store manager said she will hv to wait until mo day to discuss with her BOSSES again,
but likely will charge around 2kfor surcharges + GST+ first instalment + bank charges + ampoule + tummy rub + .

Go for healthy detox. No need slimming centre. Affordable , you become healthy n it doesn’t bounce back . So many successfully testimony . The cost is very reasonable too. I spent a boom in going to slimming centre. Package haven’t finish always ask to sign new ones. Enough for me.
