Weight Loss Management

When you choose us, we work with you to help you lose the weight you want to lose and keep it off. We will provide a nutritional plan and exercise regimen that works with your preferences and lifestyle. We will also coach you along the way to a healthier you.

Our services include the options of drug regimens with one or a mix of the following:

  • Semaglutide (with or without L-Carnitine)
  • Tirzepatide (with or without L-Carnitine)
  • Phentermine
  • Phentermine/Topiramate
  • Bupropion/Naltrexone
  • Glycyrrhetinic Acid & Aminophylline transdermal cream

We also offer additional peptides or medications as applicable.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and when they are joined together in specific sequences, they form peptides.  They play important roles in biological processes and functions within our body.

We offer the following peptide options for performance enhancement, healing, wellness, weight loss and anti-aging benefits. Keep in mind most peptides offered are not FDA approved for the given indications and are prescribed off label.

  • Sermorelin or Sermorelin/L Carnitine utilized to stimulate the production and release of natural growth hormone from the pituitary gland. This can be used as a treatment for various conditions related to growth hormone deficiency, such as promoting muscle growth, increasing bone density, improving body composition, and potentially addressing some age-related health concerns. It’s often used as an alternative to direct growth hormone therapy.

 

  • LIPO B12 Injections (i.e., M.I.C- B12)  combines lipotropic agents  Methionine, Inositol ,Choline and vitamin B12. Lipotropic agents help metabolize fats and aid liver health. Vitamin B12 is vital for blood cells, nerves, and DNA. Lipo B12 is used for:
  1. Weight Loss: Boosts fat breakdown and removal for potential weight loss support.
  2. Liver Health: Assists liver in processing fats, aiding conditions like fatty liver.
  3. Energy: Provides an energy boost, particularly for B12-deficient individuals.
  4. Metabolism: Supports overall metabolism, impacting digestion and nutrients.
