However, the exact proportion of subcutaneous to total fat varies with gender, age, (2) By Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis, (BIA) this method is easy to administer, non-invasive and a safe method.

One such scale is a BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) body fat analyzer. This device measures the time it takes for an electrical current to pass through the body, assuming that water conducts electricity better than fat.
