Once your plan begins, you’ll start with weekly GLP-1 injections, either Semaglutide or Tirzepatide, or BioTE Hormone Replacement Therapy. Each dosage is tailored to your comfort and response, with regular follow-up appointments to track your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
Throughout your program, our team provides ongoing nutritional and lifestyle support. You’ll learn practical strategies for meal planning, appetite control, and energy management. Some patients benefit from a low-calorie diet or specific supplements that enhance metabolic function and recovery. This is a partnership between you and your care team. Every step is monitored by medical professionals to ensure you’re losing weight safely, maintaining balance, and building habits that last for life.
Costs vary depending on your treatment plan, but transparency is always our priority. The total investment depends on factors such as the specific medication (brand or compounded), program length, number of follow-up visits, and lab testing. During your consultation, we’ll review all details, including what’s included in your plan. Many programs cover medication, clinical support, and ongoing monitoring. Our team will walk you through every cost and financing option available, helping you begin your program confidently and without surprises.
There’s no downtime with GLP-1 weight loss medications or BioTE HRT; you can go about your daily life while the medication works gradually to reset your metabolism.
Most patients notice changes in appetite and energy within the first two to four weeks. More visible weight loss results usually appear between 8 and 12 weeks, with continued improvement for several months. Common side effects include mild nausea, digestive changes, or fatigue, especially early on. These typically improve as your body adjusts. Regular check-ins help Dr. Sukkar monitor your health and adjust your plan if needed. Maintaining results is about consistency. Our team will help you create a balanced nutrition and lifestyle plan so your success lasts long after medication use is complete.
