WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
Our mission is to help you feel and look your best, inside and out. Total Skin’s medical weight loss program offers a variety of options to create a weight loss plan designed specifically for you. Our programs start with an initial consultation with our medical provider who will design a plan based off your specific goals, lifestyle, and medical history.
​
Total Skin can assist you with your weight loss goals in the following ways:
​
-
Vitamin injections
​
-
Prescription medications
​
-
Lipolysis injections
​
-
Body contouring
​
Vitamin Injections
Vitamin injections can help to supplement and boost the body’s metabolic power while increasing your energy levels.
When injected, vitamin B12 and Lipo-B are easily absorbed by the body and then utilized in the formation of red blood cells as well as helping to maintain a healthy nervous and cardiovascular system.
Lipo-B and B12 injections can be administered weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. Used alone or in combination, these nonsurgical medical weight loss management strategies can help you reach your weight loss goals and live healthier.

Prescription Medications
Medical supervision is necessary to detect and treat weight-related medical conditions, as well as to improve the patient’s overall health and well-being.
Total Skin offers a comprehensive and effective approach to maximizing overall health and reversing weight related disease by using prescription medications. We offer various medical-grade medications that are not available over the counter but only available under the care of a medical provider.
We require a consultation and labs prior to starting this medical weight loss program to assess your health and create the weight management program that best fits your personality and goals.
​
Semaglutide + Levocarnitine
Semaglutide is an FDA-approved injectable glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist that is administered once weekly to help with long-term weight management. GLP-1 is an incretin hormone that plays a role in your appetite and digestion. Incretins – hormones released by your small intestine – are sent out by your body after you’ve eaten a meal to help lower your blood sugar by triggering insulin and blocking other sources of sugar. It also slows down how quickly food leaves your stomach. The results of these actions cause you to feel full – lowering your appetite and causing you to lose weight.
​
Phentermine
Phentermine can help weight loss by decreasing your hunger or making you feel full longer. Phentermine belongs to a class of drugs called “anorectics,” also known as appetite suppressants. Taking phentermine helps suppress your appetite, thereby limiting how many calories you eat. Over time, this can lead to weight loss. At Total Skin, phentermine can be used as a part of a medical weight loss program along with diet and exercise. This medication is indicated as a short-term adjunct – for not more than a few weeks – in a weight loss regimen.
Lipolysis Injections
Fat dissolving injections, such as Kybella™ and PCDC, can help you to achieve a slimmer, more contoured body shape, with long-lasting results.
This treatment involves a series of small injections directly into unwanted fat pockets. Once injected, the active ingredients cause fat cells to rupture. Once eliminated, they are then naturally broken down through your metabolism. You will notice a reduction of fat over time as the body continues to process the unwanted fat cells.
Ideal candidates typically have small fatty pockets that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is particularly appealing treatment to those clients who do not want to have surgery. Our team of highly qualified medical professionals will consult with you prior to treatment to ensure you achieve the best results.
Body Contouring
​
CoolSculpting® Elite
CoolSculpting® Elite is a non-surgical, FDA-cleared fat-freezing procedure. This fat-reduction method utilizes controlled cooling to eliminate stubborn fat that resists all efforts of diet and exercise. CoolSculpting® Elite is an excellent alternative to liposuction as it safely delivers precisely controlled cooling to freeze fat cells underneath the skin gently and effectively. Over a short period of time, your body will naturally process the fat and eliminate these dead fat cells for good. It is specially designed for those who have noticeable fat bulges underneath the chin, in the thighs, in the abdomen, and flank, as well as those who have bra fat, back fat, and fat underneath the butt. CoolSculpting® Elite results are proven, noticeable, and lasting. Refer to our ‘Body Contouring’ section for more information or call to schedule a complimentary consultation for more details.
