Medical Weight Loss
Has it become harder to maintain your same level of fitness,
no matter how hard you try?
you are not alone.
At Ascend Aesthetics & Wellness, we understand that losing weight can be challenging. Studies have shown that those who have support and encouragement are most successful in weight loss and weight maintenance. Our medically supervised weight loss treatments are designed to assist those struggling to lose weight, gain self-confidence, improve their appearance and overall health and wellness.
The team at Ascend will assist you in your weight loss journey with our comprehensive weight loss coaching. To support sustainable results, medication may be prescribed to help suppress appetite and/or make you feel full quicker. During regular follow-up visits, our team will review your goals, track weight loss, vital signs, BMI, nutrition, and exercise. We will make recommendations or adjustments needed to support you in reaching your goals.
For many, weight gain can be related to not only nutritional imbalance but hormonal imbalances or genetic factors as well. Ascend Aesthetics & Wellness offers comprehensive lab testing that measures specific readings of current hormone levels, vitamin deficiencies, and more. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (bHRT) and getting hormone levels balanced can support weight loss goals* and treat a variety of other symptoms our patients may be experiencing due to hormonal imbalance.
Under medical supervision, our weight loss program is designed to offer a safe and easy way to lose weight. We are committed to your success and helping you lead a healthier and more fulfilled life. Find out which weight loss treatments are best for you and take control of your life today.*

Should I consider medical weight loss with Semaglutide or Tirzepatide?
When you visit us for your consultation, a provider will get to know you, your goals, and your lifestyle so that we can work with you to create a customized treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs.
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are the perfect treatment for patients without serious medical problems who want to lose between 10 – 60 pounds. Our more active patients love that they can reach their goals without hunger or cravings while continuing to enjoy all their favorite foods. You’re likely a great candidate for Semaglutide or Tirzepatide if you are:
- Interested in losing 10-60 pounds
- No history of significant medical problems
- No family history of pancreas or thyroid disease
- No history of medullary thyroid cancer, or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MENS 2)
How does Semaglutide/Tirzepatide Work?
These once weekly injections make you feel fuller earlier – leading you to naturally eat less at each sitting, resulting in weight loss. If you are comfortable, you may give your injection in the comfort of your own home. If you prefer, the staff at Ascend will administer the weekly injection. You will meet with the provider once monthly for a check-in. Occasional nausea and constipation are typically the extent of most people’s side effects, and they can be easily controlled with the help of your provider. You will continue to exercise and eat the foods you like – the weekly injection will ensure you don’t eat too much!
Weight Loss Pharmacotherapy
Prescription weight loss medications can serve as a powerful tool in helping clients reach their goals. A few effective medications that we routinely prescribe to those who qualify include:
- Semaglutide
- Tirzepatide
- Phentermine (Adipex-P)
- Contrave
Medical weight loss treatment plans are individually designed to best meet the needs of each client. This treatment plan is based on health history, medical needs, and lifestyle. We can design a plan together that leads to your success.
How do Oral Weight Loss Agents help you lose weight?
When combined with a reduced-calorie diet and exercise, oral appetite suppressants help reduce appetite, maintain your eating habits, and boost energy. This medication makes it easier for people to make better food choices, eat smaller portions, and transition into a healthier lifestyle.
