SCIENCE-BACKED WEIGHT LOSS THAT WORKS

General age guidelines are 18+ for medical weight loss. These guidelines provide general eligibility information; individual treatment recommendations are based on a comprehensive medical evaluation and may vary depending on your medical history, current health status, and the clinical judgment of our licensed providers. Exceptions may be made when medically appropriate.

Medical weight loss is a provider-guided approach that uses prescription medications, such as semaglutide or tirzepatide, to help regulate appetite and support metabolic health. These medications promote fullness and reduce hunger, making it easier to maintain sustainable, long-term weight loss when paired with healthy habits.

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 agonist that helps reduce appetite and slow gastric emptying. Tirzepatide works on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, which often leads to stronger appetite suppression, improved insulin sensitivity, and greater overall weight loss. Your provider will help determine which option is the best fit based on your goals, medical history, and response to treatment.

We recommend a minimum of three months to allow your body time to adjust to treatment. The total length of therapy depends on your starting point, goal weight, lifestyle habits, and exercise routine. Progress is reviewed monthly and dosing is adjusted as needed.

Titrated dosing means we start at a low dose to let your body adjust and minimize side effects, then gradually increase the dose over time until we reach the most effective level for you. This personalized approach ensures safety and comfort, with the goal of achieving appetite suppression and weight loss without unnecessary side effects. The appropriate dose is determined by individual response.

The most common side effects are gastrointestinal, such as nausea, constipation, or diarrhea. These are usually mild and temporary. Our titration schedule is designed to minimize these effects, and we can provide tips to manage them.

Yes. These medications are powerful tools, but they work best when combined with a healthy lifestyle. They make it much easier to stick to a calorie deficit by reducing hunger, but prioritizing protein and movement is key to maintaining muscle mass.

Obesity is a chronic condition. If you stop the medication without maintaining the lifestyle changes you've made, weight regain is possible. We can help you develop a maintenance plan or a tapering strategy to support long-term success.

Our pricing is tiered by dosage, making treatment more cost-effective over time. Because GLP-1 medications are titrated, patients advance only when needed, avoiding unnecessary increases in cost. Pricing also includes all provider appointments and ongoing medical oversight, which are often charged separately elsewhere — making our services transparent and extremely competitive on overall cost.

Results vary by individual. Many patients begin to notice changes in appetite and satiety within the first week, with visible weight loss typically starting within the first month. The speed of weight loss depends on individual goals, nutrition, lifestyle habits, and consistency with medication.
