At Lentz Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa in Ormond Beach, FL, we offer medical weight loss programs that combine physician expertise with proven tools like GLP-1 and GLP-2 injections. Each treatment plan is carefully built to help you lose weight safely, maintain it long-term, and feel better throughout the process.
What Is Medical Weight Loss?
Medical weight loss treatment combines several key tools: medical weight loss supplements, prescription medications, injections, and personalized lifestyle changes. Each helps you shed weight safely and keep it off.
Supplements boost metabolism, correct nutrient deficiencies, or support energy levels. Meanwhile, medications might include appetite suppressants or drugs that address hormonal or metabolic issues.
Injections like GLP-1 or GLP-2 therapies help manage hunger and support healthy digestion. Lifestyle changes, such as improving your eating habits and activity level, help build routines that support long-term results.
How Medical Weight Loss Works
Medical weight loss blends clinical insight with personalized strategies. Your program may involve prescription weight loss medication, GLP-based injections, and optional medical weight loss supplements. Combined with nutrition and lifestyle coaching, it gives you a clear and manageable plan.
We focus on identifying what’s really affecting your weight—whether hormone imbalances, slow metabolism, or underlying conditions—and matching you with medical weight loss solutions that work.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Medical Weight Loss?
You may benefit from medical weight loss if you:
- Have a BMI of 27 or higher
- Live with insulin resistance, PCOS, or metabolic syndrome
- Have not had success with diet and exercise alone
- Need support while using GLP-1 or GLP-2 weight loss medication
We’ll begin with a consultation to review your history and discuss your goals. This helps us decide if GLP-1 for weight loss or GLP-2 weight loss options are the right fit for your plan.
What to Expect During Your Program
After an initial health screening, we develop your plan. This might include:
- Weekly or biweekly weight loss injections
- Nutritional planning and behavior coaching
- Check-ins to adjust dosage or guidance
- Supplements to support your goals
We track your progress, monitor your treatment response, and adjust along the way.
Results, Recovery, and Long-Term Success
Most patients start noticing reduced appetite and better energy within a few weeks. As you continue, you may see:
- Lower blood pressure or blood sugar
- Steady, healthy weight loss
- Visible body changes
- Improved mood and motivation
Temporary side effects such as nausea or appetite changes can occur, especially when starting GLP-1 or GLP-2 injections. These are usually short-lived and monitored by our team.
GLP-1/GLP-2 Injections: A Modern Approach to Weight Loss
GLP-1 and GLP-2 injections offer targeted, medical ways to help with weight loss, especially when lifestyle changes alone aren’t cutting it. These therapies support how your body regulates hunger, digestion, and nutrient use.
GLP-1 Injections
GLP-1 medications like semaglutide mimic a natural hormone that helps slow digestion, reduce appetite, and improve blood sugar levels. This means you feel fuller faster and longer, making it easier to eat less without constantly feeling hungry.
GLP-2 Injections
GLP-2 therapies focus on your gut. They help protect and strengthen the digestive lining, which improves how your body absorbs nutrients and supports a healthier metabolism overall. While GLP-2 for weight loss is still newer, it shows promising results, especially for people needing extra digestive support.

FAQs About Medical Weight Loss
What’s the difference between GLP-1 and GLP-2 medications?
GLP-1 regulates appetite and blood sugar. GLP-2 supports nutrient absorption and digestive health. They work together but target different functions.
Are weight loss injections painful?
Not really. These are small, under-the-skin injections—quick and tolerable for most patients.
How soon will I see results?
You might notice changes in appetite or energy within 2–4 weeks. Visible results often appear after the first month.
Is this program safe if I have a pre-existing condition?
Yes. That’s precisely why it’s supervised. We review your health history to create a safe, effective plan.
