What is medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss at Skin Med Spa uses customized meal plans, exercise programs, and weight loss medications or bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) to help you achieve and maintain your goal weight.
The practice offers Wegovy® weight loss injections to make you less hungry and enhance insulin production, making weight loss easier.
What are the advantages of a healthy body weight?
If you carry excess body weight, weight loss with the help of the Skin Med Spa specialists offers numerous benefits, including:
- Reduced appetite
- Easier weight loss
- More energy
- Self-confidence
- Medical supervision
- Lower risk of chronic diseases
- Improved disease management
- Better quality of life
Your weight loss provider also helps you maintain a desirable weight long-term. They offer additional anti-aging solutions to help you look and feel your best.
Which medical weight loss plan is best for me?
Your Skin Med Spa specialist tailors each weight loss plan to your specific needs. They weigh you, evaluate your body mass index (BMI), review your medical history, and discuss your diet and other lifestyle habits. They may recommend you undergo blood testing. Your provider also inquires about your target body weight before customizing a treatment plan.
What should I expect during a medical weight loss program?
During a medical weight loss program, you meet or speak with your medical specialist regularly. It’s important to follow your meal and exercise plans exactly as directed and take medication as prescribed. You can inject Wegovy yourself at home as instructed, but it’s important to follow all the instructions provided by your Skin Med Spa specialist.
In addition to adopting healthy habits and using weight loss medication or hormone therapy (if prescribed), it’s important to get plenty of sleep, avoid smoking and excess alcohol consumption, and minimize stress as much as possible. Seek treatment for a mental health condition that may interfere with healthy eating habits.
You might lose 1-2 pounds weekly or more, depending on your specific weight loss plan and how well you stick to the program. Don’t hesitate to call Skin Med Spa with any questions you may have throughout your weight loss journey.
