Weight Loss Treatments
Losing weight isn’t always as simple as eating less and moving more. Hormones, metabolism, age, stress, and medical history all play a role. At Injectables by Dr. V, we take a medical approach to weight loss with treatments that are designed to support real, lasting change.
No matter if you’ve struggled with stubborn weight gain, hormonal imbalances, or slow progress despite a healthy lifestyle, we offer personalized options to help you feel better, look leaner, and stay motivated. Every weight loss plan is developed and overseen by Dr. Vincent Nacouzi, a physician with advanced training in wellness, hormone optimization, and aesthetic medicine.
What Our Weight Loss Program Includes
At Injectables by Dr. V, our weight loss services include:
Tirzepatide
These treatments are never offered as one-size-fits-all solutions. Dr. V will evaluate your goals, health history, and lab work to create a safe, medically supervised plan that fits your body.
Semaglutide and B12
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that helps regulate appetite, improve insulin sensitivity, and support gradual fat loss. Originally developed for diabetes management, it has since been FDA-approved for chronic weight management under medical supervision.
At Injectables by Dr. V, we combine compounded Semaglutide with vitamin B12 to support energy levels and metabolic health during treatment. This combination:
Helps reduce hunger and increase satiety
Slows gastric emptying, keeping you fuller longer
Supports stable blood sugar and insulin function
Aids steady weight loss without intense calorie restriction
Helps maintain energy and focus through B12 supplementation
This compound is often administered weekly and monitored closely by Dr. V to adjust dosing and track progress over time.
Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide is a newer dual-acting medication that targets both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, making it one of the most advanced medical options for weight loss available today.
Tirzepatide:
Has shown significant weight loss results in clinical studies
Helps reduce food intake by lowering hunger signals
Supports improved insulin sensitivity and metabolic function
May offer faster or more robust weight loss than semaglutide for some patients
Dr. V will help determine if Tirzepatide or Semaglutide is more appropriate based on your health profile, weight loss goals, and how your body responds to treatment.
Hormone Therapy for Weight Loss
For many people, hormone imbalances are a hidden barrier to losing weight. When hormones like testosterone, estrogen, thyroid hormones, or cortisol are out of balance, it can make fat loss harder and increase fatigue, cravings, and mood instability.
Dr. V offers comprehensive hormone therapy for weight loss options including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and more to identify and correct these imbalances. Hormone optimization can:
Improve metabolism and fat burning
Reduce stress-related weight gain
Enhance motivation and energy
Support muscle preservation while losing fat
Balancing hormones is often the missing piece for those who have tried everything but still struggle with slow or stalled results.
PDO Thread Lifts to Refine Your Results
If you’re experiencing skin laxity, loss of contour, or mild sagging in areas like the abdomen, arms, or thighs, PDO thread lifts can help improve the appearance of firmness and tone in your body.
Thread lifts use absorbable sutures to lift and tighten skin in targeted areas. The procedure is minimally invasive and stimulates collagen production for longer-term improvement. Common areas treated include:
Abdomen
Inner thighs
Upper arms
Buttocks
Thread lifts can be a great addition to a medical weight loss plan, helping you look as good as you feel by enhancing your natural shape.
What to Expect at Our Weight Loss Clinic
Your weight loss plan at Injectables by Dr. V begins with a private consultation and medical assessment. Dr. V will review your health history, symptoms, lifestyle, and lab work to determine the best treatment approach for your goals.

Weekly or biweekly injections
