Obesity is a disease. It is frequently the forerunner to the development of other medical diseases such as heart disease and diabetes. A healthy BMI range from 18 to 25.  You are deemed “overweight or obese” if your BMI is greater than 25.

​

You may be wondering, “Am I a good candidate for medically assisted weight loss?”  An excellent candidate is an otherwise healthy person with a BMI greater than 30 or greater than 27 with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol. If you meet these criteria and believe you’ve “tried it all” when trying to lose weight, then adding medication to aid the process may be advised. If you are unclear if you meet the requirements, simply book a consultation to learn more about the program and determine whether you are a good candidate for medically assisted weight loss.  This approach is not first-line therapy for type 2 diabetes.

​

This program consists of a series of weekly subcutaneous injections (that you give yourself) to help make you feel fuller, faster, and longer. The medication will be shipped right to your door! The medication prescribed is the “generic” version of the brand name medication such as Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro.  Forever Ageless prescribes this medication from high-quality 503A compounding pharmacy here in the USA that is FDA registered! Using compounding pharmacies help bring the cost of the medication down.

​

Semaglutide (Ozempic) and Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) demonstrated appetite suppression, improved control of eating, less food cravings, and improved glycemic control. Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) has also been shown to reduce inflammation within the body. 

​

Our formulations can be combined with B12 which may increase energy, reduced nausea with injections and increase metabolism. 

​

A series of office appointments will be required. The initial appointment consists of a full physical health assessment, with vitals and if required a lab draw or orders to obtain (CBC, CMP, TSH, T3 free, T4 free, Lipid Panel, HgA1c). This lab draw is an additional fee.  If you recently had blood work completed (within the last 6 months) with your Primary Care Provider and can bring that to your initial appointment, you can skip this lab draw. You will learn how to do your self-injections at this appointment. You will then receive your medication in via mail within 2 weeks and will then be able to request refills directly from the pharmacy. 

​

If you are not overweight, according to your BMI but still would like help to shed that extra 5 – 10 lb, you can come in 1-2 times a week for a Lipo-(MICC) injections or due them at home.

​

Forever Ageless does not accept insurance, getting these medications through insurance is not only difficult but can cost upwards of $1100-$1700.
