One Way to Get a DEXA Scan in Katy
The clinic listed further down this page runs that scan for Katy, covering 1 ZIP code across the area. A DEXA scan measures your body fat percentage, how much lean muscle you carry in each limb, the visceral fat around your organs, and your bone mineral density. It takes about 10 minutes and you get the numbers in writing.
Katy grew from a rice-farming railroad stop into one of the fastest-growing corners of the Houston metro, spreading across the point where Harris, Fort Bend, and Waller counties meet. It is a place organized around family sport: Katy ISD's football culture fills 12,000-seat Legacy Stadium on fall Fridays, and master-planned communities like Cinco Ranch stack their calendars with swim teams, select soccer, and 5Ks. Katy has one published DEXA location of its own, each listed on this page with its address and contact details. Between marathon training groups on suburban trail systems and Energy Corridor professionals commuting east each morning, Katy has no shortage of people who want their body composition measured properly, and the listings on this page show where to do it.
Weighing it against an InBody reading or a smart scale? See how the three measure up . Deciding between the two scan types? See our guides to the body composition scan and the bone density test.

Who Books a DEXA Scan in Katy?
Katy ISD Athletes & Sports Parents
In a district whose football teams play at Legacy Stadium, training starts early. DEXA gives Katy's student athletes and their coaches an objective read on lean muscle gained through offseason strength work, far beyond what a team weigh-in shows.
Energy Corridor Professionals
Thousands of Katy residents commute to the Energy Corridor's office towers along I-10. A DEXA scan fits before work or at lunch and quantifies body fat, muscle balance, and visceral fat.
Adults Tracking Bone Health
Katy-area adults referred for osteoporosis screening, often through physicians affiliated with Memorial Hermann Katy or Houston Methodist West, use DEXA T-scores as the clinical baseline for bone mineral density and the benchmark for every scan after.

Frequently Asked Questions - Katy DEXA Scans
Where can I get a DEXA scan in Katy, TX?
Marvelous Laser and Medspa, at 6630 FM 1463 Road, Suite A-500 in Katy, TX, runs DEXA scans for the Katy area. Call (346) 707-8978 to schedule your appointment.
How much does a DEXA scan cost in Katy?
Each Katy clinic sets its own price, and cash-pay scans typically run $99–$250 depending on whether you book body composition, bone density, or both. The listings on this page carry the clinic's contact details so you can confirm the exact figure before you schedule. HSA and FSA payments are accepted at most locations.
Do I need a referral for a DEXA scan in Katy?
Usually not for a self-pay body composition scan in Katy, though a hospital imaging department may ask for a physician's order for any scan, so check when you book. A bone density scan billed to insurance usually needs one.
Does insurance cover DEXA scans in Katy, Texas?
Often, yes, but only for bone density. If a physician orders the scan as medically necessary, say after a referral from a doctor at a health system in Harris County like Memorial Hermann Katy & Houston Methodist West, insurance usually covers it. Body composition scans booked for fitness reasons are self-pay. HSA and FSA cards work for both.
Which communities near Katy do you serve?
Besides Katy, we book scans for people in Houston, Sugar Land, The Woodlands and Fort Worth, and across the rest of Harris County (281 / 832 / 713 area).
Is a DEXA scan safe in Katy?
Yes. A DEXA scan at Marvelous Laser and Medspa delivers roughly a tenth the radiation of a chest X-ray, less than you absorb from natural background sources in a normal day. Nothing touches you and nothing is injected. You lie still for 10-15 minutes.
What does a full body DEXA scan measure in Katy?
Total and regional body fat percentage, how lean muscle is distributed across your arms, legs, and trunk, visceral fat around the organs, and bone mineral density. All of it from one 10-minute whole-body scan in Katy, wherever a clinic offers body composition as well as bone density.
How long does a DEXA scan appointment take in Katy?
Budget about 30 minutes including check-in at Marvelous Laser and Medspa. The scan itself runs 10-15 minutes. Most clinics send the results report within a day or two.
What is the difference between a DXA scan and a DEXA scan?
Nothing. Both stand for dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. DXA is what clinicians write, DEXA is what most people say, and Marvelous Laser and Medspa runs the same test under either name. Same test, same machine.
