What is medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss is a personalized, medically supervised approach to weight management that may include prescription medications, lifestyle recommendations, and ongoing medical support. Unlike one-size-fits-all diets, a medical weight loss program is tailored to your health history, goals, and progress, helping you build sustainable habits while working toward long-term weight management.
What are GLP-1s?
GLP-1s (glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists) are a class of medications that help regulate blood sugar and support weight loss by mimicking a natural hormone in the body. GLP-1 medications are commonly prescribed as part of a medical weight loss program to help regulate appetite and support weight management when appropriate.
Some medications work by increasing feelings of fullness, reducing appetite, and slowing stomach emptying, making it easier to control food intake. Others combine GLP-1 and GIP (gastric inhibitory peptide) mechanisms, which may support metabolic function and weight management.
Why choose The Derm Project?
At The Derm Project, we offer a comprehensive medical weight loss program that combines GLP-1–based treatments (when appropriate) with lifestyle guidance and lifestyle modifications to support your weight loss goals and improve your overall health. Through medical supervision and personalized care, we ensure you receive the guidance and support you need to succeed. Plus, our GLP-1 medications are conveniently shipped directly to your home, so you can stay on track with ease. Our medical weight loss program combines physician-guided care, GLP-1–based treatments when appropriate, lifestyle guidance, and ongoing support to help you work toward sustainable weight management.
Am I a candidate?
Our medical weight loss program may be appropriate for adults who have struggled with weight management, have not achieved their desired results through diet and exercise alone, or are looking for a structured, medically supervised approach. Every patient begins with a consultation to determine whether the program is appropriate based on their health history and goals.
If you’re committed to making lasting changes and want medically-supervised care with the added benefit of GLP-1 treatments, this program could be a great fit for you.
Client Reviews
Dr. Gallegos was so great to work with. We did a virtual consultation for Semi-Glutide. I talked with her about my concerns as far as the side effects and the differences between the types.
It’s been 4 weeks and I’ve lost 6 pounds. She helped me prioritize eating healthy and not just eating empty calories. We talked and for the second month I am going to stay on the low dose because I feel completely in control of my food thoughts. I really think everyone should be on it!
