What the program actually is

Run by clinicians, not by an app

We are not going to show you surgical before-and-afters on a weight-loss page — that would imply the medication did it. Here is what the program is instead.

History, exam and labs before anything is prescribed. Not everyone qualifies.
Body composition tracked, not just scale weight — losing muscle is why weight comes back.
Protein targets and training built in alongside the medication.
Dose titration managed here by a clinician, not by a chat window.
A maintenance phase from the start — the part most programs skip.

Is this the right time

This program fits you if

Diet and exercise alone have not produced a durable result.
You want medication managed by a clinician who tracks your labs.
You are willing to eat enough protein and train to protect muscle.
You are planning body contouring later and want to reach a stable weight first.
You want a maintenance plan, not just a prescription refill.

Crisalix 3D simulation

What “see it in 3D” actually means

At your free consult we photograph you on a 3D imaging system and your surgeon shapes the proposed result on the model, in front of you. You rotate it, you see the profile, you say no to anything you do not like. Nothing is scheduled that day.

Answered by our surgical team

Questions about weight loss

Do the injections hurt?

They are subcutaneous, with a very fine needle, once a week, and you give them to yourself. Most patients describe a pinch they barely feel. We teach you the technique at your first visit and you practise it there.

How much weight can I expect to lose?

It varies with your starting point, which medication is appropriate and how closely the nutrition plan is followed. Your clinician will give you a realistic range at the evaluation based on your own numbers. Anyone quoting a guaranteed figure before examining you is selling.

Do I qualify for a GLP-1 medication?

That is a clinical decision made after a history, exam and labs — commonly guided by BMI and related conditions. Some patients qualify, some do not, and some are better served by a different approach. You will be told which, and why.

Are there side effects?

Nausea, reflux and constipation are the common ones and usually settle as the dose is titrated. There are less common risks your clinician will review with you individually. Dose changes are managed here, not by a chatbot.

Will I lose muscle along with fat?

Some, if the program is run badly. That is exactly why we set protein targets, encourage resistance training and track body composition instead of scale weight alone. Losing muscle is what makes weight come back.

What happens when I stop the medication?

Weight returns for many people without a maintenance plan — this is a known effect, not a failure of willpower. The maintenance phase is built into the program from the start.

Should I lose weight before body contouring?

Yes, in almost every case. Surgeons want a weight that has been stable for three to six months so the result holds. Running both programs in one practice is precisely why this exists.
