Weight Loss Program & Medications
Our Comprehensive Approach
Berman Skin Institute takes a comprehensive approach to weight loss and tailors options for a unique program. We combine medical supervision with medications and exercise to support a positive weight loss experience.
Medical Supervision
Our providers will partner with you to aid your weight loss journey. We will also monitor your progress with the GLP-1 medications included in our weight loss program. Your provider will personalize your treatment plan and may include one of the following medications depending on your needs and goals:
- Semaglutide: Semaglutide is a weight loss medication that enhances the body’s insulin response to high blood sugar levels, stabilizing blood sugar fluctuations and supporting weight management.
- Tirzepatide: Tirzepatide is an injectable medication that mimics the GLP-1 and GIP hormones to help you feel fuller with less food and slow the passage of food through the digestive tract.
Exercise Guidance
In short, weight loss can naturally happen when your energy output (exercise) is greater than your energy input (eating). Our providers will guide you through an exercise regimen using this input vs. output principle. We will keep your favorite forms of exercise in mind to create a plan you feel excited and motivated to complete regularly.

What Our Clients Have to Say
I went here for a 1-off skin concern a year ago. The front desk scheduled a follow-up appointment without my knowledge for a year later. I missed their reminder call the day before the appointment (they called at 8 am and it went to voicemail). By the time I listened to their voicemails 2 days later I found out I would be charged $150 for missing the appointment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Below is a list of our most common questions regarding our weight loss program. If you have additional questions, contact us today.
Our medical weight loss program combines medical supervision and exercise to help you reach your goals. Our providers will work one-on-one with you to create a personalized treatment plan.
GLP-1 stands for glucose-like peptide-1, a naturally occurring hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. GLP-1 medications stimulate insulin production, reduce glucagon, slow digestion and decrease feelings of hunger — all of which contribute to weight loss.
Commercial diet programs usually take a one-size-fits-all approach. At Berman Skin Institute, we understand everyone’s weight loss journey looks different, so we will personalize your treatment accordingly.
