Regular follow-up appointments allow us to monitor your progress, adjust medications as needed, and address any side effects or concerns. We coordinate care between our weight loss, skin care, and tattoo removal services to ensure treatments complement each other. Throughout your program, we provide ongoing medical supervision to ensure safe, effective weight loss while optimizing your overall health and appearance.

Insurance & Pricing

As a medical facility, many of our services may be covered by insurance when medically necessary for treating obesity-related conditions. We accept most major insurance plans and provide documentation for weight loss treatments that qualify for medical necessity. Our staff assists with insurance verification and pre-authorization when required.

For services not covered by insurance, we offer competitive self-pay rates and flexible payment plans. Package deals combining weight loss with skin care or tattoo removal provide savings for patients pursuing comprehensive transformation. We also accept Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) payments for qualified medical expenses.

First-Time Patient Tips

Success in our medically supervised program requires commitment to attending regular appointments and following prescribed treatment protocols. If you're prescribed weight loss medications, take them exactly as directed and report any side effects immediately. Maintain open communication with our medical team about your progress, challenges, and any changes in your health status.

Combine medical treatments with healthy lifestyle changes including proper nutrition and regular exercise as recommended by your physician. If you're receiving multiple services like skin care or tattoo removal alongside weight loss treatments, follow all aftercare instructions carefully. Remember that medically supervised weight loss is a process that requires patience and consistency, but the medical support significantly increases your chances of long-term success.
