Medical Weight Loss
Single-Action Metabolic Support (GLP-1)
This GLP-1 injection is designed to support safe, effective weight loss. It works by calming appetite, reducing cravings, and helping your body use insulin more efficiently. Most clients notice feeling full sooner and having fewer food “urges,” which makes it easier to make healthier choices without feeling deprived. Doses are increased gradually for comfort and safety, and the treatment works best when paired with balanced nutrition, hydration, and movement. Many people experience steady, sustainable weight loss and improved overall wellness with this medication.
Dual-Action Metabolic Support (GLP-1 + GIP)
This weekly injection supports powerful, sustained weight loss. It works on two natural pathways (GLP-1 and GIP) to curb appetite, reduce cravings, and improve how your body processes sugar and fat. Clients often feel full faster, have fewer food urges, and experience more consistent energy. Doses are increased gradually for comfort and safety, and the best results come when paired with balanced nutrition, hydration, and healthy movement. Many people see even greater weight-loss results with this medication compared to other options.
MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS INSTRUCTIONS
Your ILUMA guide to getting the most out of your treatment!
1. Month 1 = a gentle start.
The first month is DISAPPOINTING because we begin at a low dose to ease your body in to reduce side effects. Results build with each month as your dose increases, more appetite control, more fat loss.
2. Stick to the plan.
Watch the intro videos + follow your food list. Keep sugar and carbs low to avoid hunger crashes. Add 5,000 IU Vitamin D daily for overall support.
3. Store your syringes in the fridge.
Inject 1x a week (or split into 2 smaller doses). Anywhere with fat—belly, back of arms, or thighs. Morning or night—your choice.
4. Slow fat loss = long term success
Ideal weight loss is 5–7 lbs of fat per month. Aim for around 1,000 calories a day to stay on track without losing muscle.
5. Constipated?
Try Sugar-free fiber gummies (Amazon or local pharmacy) and drink plenty of water
6. Nausea?
Try ginger tea, peppermint, Vitamin B6, or Sea-Bands before requesting a prescription. Eat small, bland meals and stay hydrated. If needed, we can send in an Rx for $40, or you can ask your provider.
7. Ice packs at pickup?
If they melt before you get home, don’t worry—medication is stable at room temp.
8. Time to reorder?

9. Dose = price may change.
If your dose increases, so will the price:
GLP-1: +$25 per increase
GLP-1 + GIP: +$50 per increase
10. No jumping ahead.
Everyone starts at Month 1 unless you show proof of prior dosing. Safety is our priority.
