Medical weight management with GLP-1

About the treatment

Medical weight management at Olivo Med Spa starts with a consultation and lab work.

GLP-1 medications have changed the conversation about weight. They work by acting on appetite and how the body handles blood sugar. They are prescription medicines with real effects and real considerations, which is why the clinic offers them only inside a physician-supervised program.

The program starts with a consultation and lab work. Dr. Olivo reviews your history, current medications, and goals, and decides whether a GLP-1 medication is appropriate. If it is, you begin at a starting dose with scheduled follow-ups to adjust the plan and monitor how you feel.

Medication is one part of the program. Nutrition, movement, and, for some people, Emsculpt Neo for tone as weight changes, round it out. Candidacy and expectations are set at your consultation. No specific result is promised.
