This refers to a "draineur minceur", small tablets to take as a slimming aid. I'm not sure how to translate "draineur" and avoid the term draining which is not very attractive. What about "Slimming Detox" or is detox not quite the same thing?

I believe your own answer is correct! At least, this is how I've translated in it the past.

Just to clarify: 'slimming detox' is correct. The 'draineur' effect will be in addition to the 'minceur' effect'. 'Slimming treatment' does not cover this aspect. 'Draineur' products are aimed at 'elimination' etc. (whatever that means...).

: it is about fat loss rather than eliminating toxins and as your quotes show terms like drain are carefully avoided. You can flush out toxins but not fat! So maybe 'slimming boost' might work if tablets

Some Notes on PhytoPharma's
"Effortless Weight Loss" Plan
Stephen Barrett, M.D.
......The plan includes two bottles: a "Purgative Elixir" and a "Drainer Elixir." The booklet that comes with the products suggests that the number of drops should vary according to the amount of weight loss desired. The herbal ingredients listed are:
Purgative: Aqueous extracts of artichoke, black radish, camu cane, cardamon, celery, Chrysantellum indicum, and muscade.
Drainer: Aqueous extracts of anis seeds, bardane root, birch leaves, black currant leaves, black radish, cherry stems, commen, dandelion roots and leaves, fennel seeds, fumitory, Green tea, heather, mint, nettle, parsley, sage, and watercress.

: Not good marketing lingo in English, in my opinion. Also: that link from jlsjr is full of calques and bad English. There are 700 hits for "skin drainer" and the top set are for a device, not a supplement.

drainage
think this is used too - not sure if it'll fit your context
The result is a slimming cocktail for dual olfactory and skin performance which, combined with a lipo-reducing Plant Extract complex, acts in three steps: 1. Triggers slimming with its olfactory properties: activates the process of releasing stored fats. 2. Reinforces slimming effects by application: intensifies action to combat orange-peel skin and stimulates drainage to filter stubborn fatty deposits. 3. Helps keep you slim: prevents further fat build-up.
