Every individual has different needs and goals.  If you aren’t sure if the shots are right for you, please call our office at (314) 293-8123 to schedule a free consultation to discuss these injections.  Also, because each person is different with their own unique issues and needs, a consultation will allow us to customize your shots to ensure the best results.


How often do you need Lipotropic injections?

For maximum results, we recommend weekly injections.  This injection combined with a multivitamin ensures you get all the vitamins, minerals, and amino acids that you may not be getting in sufficient amounts from your foods while you are losing weight.

How effective are lipotropic injections for weight loss?

Lipotropic injections are a great aid in boosting your energy, increasing your metabolism, and suppressing your appetite.  Alone they can help you lose weight, but you will see the best results when you combine these injections with a healthy diet and exercise program.


Are they safe?  Do they hurt?

Lipotropic injections are an incredibly safe and effective way to boost weight loss or maintain a healthy weight.  Not only will they contribute to the success of your weight loss plan, they’ll also give you a boost in energy. Like any injection, there may be some discomfort during the injection itself, but it is minimal.


Are Lipotropic injections the same as HCG?

NO!  While both can be used to aid in weight loss, they are definitely not the same.  Lipotropic injections include a combination of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids while HCG (or human chorionic gonadotropin) is the hormone women make when they are pregnant.
