What Is Medical Weight Loss?

Medical weight loss is a doctor-guided program that goes beyond typical dieting by focusing on your unique physiology and health needs. At Cohen Centers, we begin with a detailed health assessment that may include lab work and a review of medical history to uncover any underlying factors contributing to weight gain. Our program combines targeted treatments, such as Tirzepatide, with lifestyle adjustments to support sustainable, long-term weight management.

Whether you’ve struggled with weight loss in the past or need additional tools to maintain progress, our medical weight loss program ensures you receive ongoing medical support every step of the way. By tailoring the approach to your specific needs, we provide a path that focuses on your overall well-being, not just the number on the scale.

How Tirzepatide Supports Weight Loss

A cornerstone of our program is Tirzepatide, a revolutionary medication belonging to the class of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Originally developed for type 2 diabetes, Tirzepatide has shown significant promise in weight management due to its unique ability to regulate hunger and metabolism. It mimics the natural hormone GLP-1, which plays a critical role in appetite control and glucose regulation.

Tirzepatide works by slowing down the digestive process, giving you a greater feeling of fullness with less food. This helps reduce overall calorie intake while improving insulin sensitivity, leading to better blood sugar control. With consistent use and medical supervision, Tirzepatide can produce substantial weight loss results while supporting metabolic health.

The Benefits of Medical Weight Loss with Cohen Centers

Participating in our medical weight loss program offers numerous advantages over traditional weight loss methods. Unlike fad diets that often result in short-term success followed by rebound weight gain, our physician-led approach focuses on sustainable results. With tools like Tirzepatide, we address underlying metabolic issues that contribute to weight gain, providing a scientifically backed solution to help you maintain your progress long-term.

Because weight loss is never a one-size-fits-all journey, our medical team continuously monitors your progress and makes adjustments to ensure you stay on track. Whether through regular follow-up appointments or ongoing communication, we offer the support you need to navigate any challenges that may arise during your weight loss journey.

What to Expect from Your Medical Weight Loss Journey

Your weight loss journey at Cohen Centers starts with a comprehensive consultation. During this visit, we assess your health through lab work, body composition analysis, and a detailed discussion of your medical history. This evaluation allows us to identify any factors that may affect your ability to lose weight and craft a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Tirzepatide is introduced as part of this plan for eligible candidates, offering a powerful tool to enhance weight loss efforts. Our physician will guide you through the medication process, explaining how to incorporate Tirzepatide into your lifestyle effectively. Because this medication requires precise dosing and monitoring, we ensure you receive all the necessary instructions for safe and effective use.

Throughout the program, we provide continuous medical supervision. Monthly follow-up visits allow us to track your progress, address any concerns, and adjust your treatment plan as needed. In addition to the medication, our experts offer personalized lifestyle recommendations, including nutritional advice and physical activity guidance, to maximize your weight loss results.

Ongoing Support for Lasting Success

Weight management is a journey that requires dedication, patience, and the right support system. At Cohen Centers, we are committed to providing long-term solutions that go beyond short-term weight loss. With ongoing access to our medical team, you can receive continuous support, whether through virtual consultations or in-person follow-ups.

As your body adjusts to weight loss and new habits, we’ll work with you to maintain momentum and prevent setbacks. Our focus on sustainable results ensures that the weight you lose stays off, helping you enjoy the benefits of improved health and vitality for years to come.
