Complementing our weight loss programs, we provide body contouring treatments including CoolSculpting, laser lipolysis, and radiofrequency skin tightening. Our medical spa services help address loose skin and stubborn fat deposits that often remain after significant weight loss. Additionally, we offer plastic surgery consultations for patients considering post-weight loss body reconstruction procedures such as tummy tucks, arm lifts, and breast augmentation or reduction.

What to Expect

Your journey begins with a comprehensive medical evaluation including metabolic testing, body composition analysis, and discussion of your weight loss history. Our medical team reviews your current health status, medications, and any underlying conditions that might affect your treatment options.

Based on this assessment, we develop a customized treatment plan that may include medical weight management, surgical intervention, or a combination of approaches. Throughout your program, you'll receive ongoing support through regular check-ins, nutritional counseling, and progress monitoring. As you reach your goals, we seamlessly transition into maintenance and aesthetic enhancement phases, ensuring your results are both sustainable and satisfying.

Insurance & Pricing

Many of our medical weight loss services are covered by major insurance plans, particularly when medically necessary for conditions like diabetes or hypertension. We work with most Pennsylvania insurance providers and will verify your coverage during your initial consultation.

For cosmetic procedures and medical spa services, we offer competitive pricing with flexible payment plans. Our financial team provides detailed cost estimates upfront, and we accept CareCredit and other medical financing options.

First-Time Patient Tips

Before beginning any weight loss program, we recommend maintaining a food diary for at least one week and gathering all current medical records. Come prepared to discuss your weight loss history honestly, including previous attempts and what worked or didn't work for you.

Post-treatment success depends heavily on following our dietary guidelines and maintaining regular follow-up appointments. We provide detailed post-care instructions and 24/7 access to our medical team for questions or concerns. Remember that sustainable weight loss is a journey, not a destination, and we're committed to supporting you every step of the way through maintenance and beyond.
