Start with a free consultation, in person or online. Our medical team reviews your health history and goals to confirm a GLP-1 medication is safe and appropriate for you. Certain conditions, including a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN2 or pancreatitis, mean these medications aren't suitable.

Our contouring treatments are non-invasive, non-surgical and require no anesthesia. Most feel like a cool sensation, light tugging or a relaxing massage. They're safe for all skin types. We'll review any conditions, like a pacemaker, metal implants or pregnancy, that would make a treatment unsuitable.

We keep pricing low on purpose. Your first Lipo Melt session is $79, Z-Wave starts at $100, Vanquish ME at $500, and our Fire & Ice packages save thousands versus paying per treatment. Medication pricing is confirmed at your consultation. There's no cost to find out if you qualify.

It depends on the treatment. Lipo Melt shows changes quickly, Lipo Freeze results appear around 2 weeks and peak by 12 weeks, and EMShape results build for several weeks after your final session. Your provider sets realistic expectations up front and tracks progress with Fit3D scans.

No. Nearly all of our treatments require zero recovery time, many take just 20–30 minutes, so you can fit them into a lunch break and head straight back to your day.

We have nine clinics across Southern California, Poway, Temecula, La Mesa, Escondido, Oceanside, Ramona, Norco and Eastlake (Chula Vista), plus Tucson, Arizona. Not every device is at every location, so we'll match you to the right clinic.
