Physician-led GLP-1 weight loss in Montreal

GLP-1 is a hormone your own gut releases when you eat. It tells your brain you have eaten, slows how quickly your stomach empties, and helps your pancreas release insulin at the right time. Your own version is broken down within minutes. The treatment is a version built to last far longer, so the fullness after a meal holds for hours instead.

A complete medical assessment with our physician and their recommendations for your health, including the decision about whether this treatment is appropriate for you. It is credited toward whichever package you choose afterwards, so Package 2 is $250 more, Package 3 is $749 more and Package 4 is $1,250 more.

The physician reviews them with you against your own history before prescribing anything. That conversation is the point of the assessment. Afterwards the nurse is your contact, and most effects are easier to manage when they are reported early.

Because weight coming off changes the shape of the body as well as its number, and skin and muscle do not keep pace with it on their own. Every support package includes body sculpting sessions for muscle stimulation, skin tightening, cellulite and fat reduction. Which technology is used depends on the clinic you choose.
