Weight Loss Program

What is medical weight loss management?

Medical weight loss management is a physician-guided, custom treatment regimen designed to help you shed pounds and keep them off.

If you’re overweight, you’re more likely to experience chronic health problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, and arthritis. You might also experience poor mental health, including low self-esteem or depression. Medical weight loss management can help improve your overall health.

Throughout treatment, you visit BeautyBossMD Medical Spa for routine checkups. The team monitors your progress and makes adjustments to the plan as necessary to ensure a positive and long-lasting outcome.

What does medical weight loss management involve?

At BeautyBossMD Medical Spa, medical weight loss management involves a combination of treatments, including:

GLP-1 medications

GLP-1 medications are antidiabetic injectable medications that the FDA approved as first-in-class medications for weight loss. Some of the most common medications the team prescribes include semaglutide or tirzepatide injections or sublinguals.

• Semaglutide is a weight loss injection that simplifies weight loss considerably by reducing appetite. This medicine has long been used to treat Type 2 diabetes but has shown to be highly effective for weight loss.
• The FDA approved semaglutide for obesity in 2021. BeautyBossMD Medical Spa gets it from one of the 4 pharmacies in the US that verify its quality and potency. Semaglutide is a single glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) that stimulates insulin production to control blood sugar. Semaglutide targets and activates GLP-1 receptors.
• Tirzepatide is an antidiabetic injectable medication that the FDA approved in 2023 as a first-in-class medication for weight loss. 
• It’s a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), acting as a dual agonist that targets GLP-1 and glucagon receptors to manage body weight and suppress appetite during weight loss. Tirzepatide also stimulates insulin production to regulate blood sugar. It’s highly effective for weight loss combined with a healthy diet and exercise.

B-12 injections

B-12 injections help speed up your metabolism and provide additional energy. They make it easier to stay physically active, allowing you to burn more calories.

IV Therapy

Intravenous therapy, or IV therapy, involves administering a combination of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream through an IV drip. This method ensures rapid absorption and bypasses your digestive tract, which limits the amount of each nutrient you absorb. The direct delivery allows for higher concentrations of nutrients, enhancing their effectiveness compared to traditional oral intake.

IV therapy offers many benefits, from boosting energy levels and improving hydration to enhancing skin health and promoting overall well-being. 

Infusing essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream contributes to a more radiant complexion, increased vitality, better mental focus, and improved immune function. That’s why it is popular for people seeking holistic wellness solutions.

Nutritional guidance

If you eat a diet that primarily consists of fatty or salty foods, you’re more likely to gain weight. Consuming a balanced diet that features fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can boost your metabolism, minimize weight gain, and even lower the risk of weight-related health problems like heart disease and diabetes.

Exercise recommendations

To successfully lose weight and keep it off, you need to incorporate exercise into your routine. After a physical and a discussion of your goals, the team recommends easy at-home exercises that align with your level of fitness while boosting your metabolism.

How long does medical weight loss management take?

The length of time you’ll need to participate in medical weight loss management depends on several factors, including your goals and medical history.

Following an in-office consultation, the team establishes a treatment plan with unique metrics that track your individual progress.
