These combined measures are clinically proven and can help you lose weight, control your appetite, curb hunger, and help release stored fat.

What happens throughout the process?

‍We will invite you back to clinic every 4 weeks to check your progress and discuss the next steps and if appropriate to continue to prescribe the treatments.
