What to Expect from Your First Appointment for Weight Loss Injections
Your Journey Starts Here
If you've been struggling with weight loss despite your best efforts, you’re not alone. At Beauty Energy Exchange Aesthetics and Wellness, we take a personalized approach to helping you achieve sustainable weight loss. One of the most effective treatments we offer is GLP-1 injections, a medication designed to reduce cravings, improve metabolism, and promote long-term weight management.
If you’re considering weight loss Injections in San Diego but aren’t sure what to expect from your first appointment, let’s walk you through the entire process so you feel confident and prepared.
Step 1: Booking Your Consultation
The first step is scheduling a one-on-one consultation with me, Nyree Van Maarseveen, WHNP, CNM. During this appointment, we’ll discuss your weight loss history, challenges, and goals to determine if GLP-1 injections are the right choice for you.
What You’ll Need to Bring:
We suggest having the following lab results (CBC, CMP, Amylase, Lipase, Liver Panel, A1C, TSH) from the last 3 months, so that we have a baseline.
A list of any current medications and medical history.
Any questions or concerns you may have about the treatment.
Step 2: In-Depth Medical Evaluation
Your health and safety are our top priorities. We’ll conduct a comprehensive evaluation to ensure GLP-1 injections are a safe and effective option for you. This includes:
✅ A full-body assessment to understand your metabolic health.
✅ A discussion about your lifestyle, eating habits, and previous weight loss efforts.
✅ Reviewing any potential contraindications or interactions with your current medications.
If you’re a good candidate, we’ll move forward with the next step.
Step 3: Creating Your Personalized Weight Loss Plan
At Beauty Energy Exchange, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Your weight loss journey is unique, and we tailor the treatment plan to fit your needs.
Your Customized Plan Includes:
📌 Dosing recommendations based on your metabolic response and goals.
📌 Nutrition & lifestyle tips to maximize your results.
📌 Supportive treatments to enhance your transformation (such as B12 for energy support or MIC-B12 for fat burning and energy support).
Step 4: Your First GLP-1 Injection
Once we finalize your plan, you’ll receive your first GLP-1 injection in-office. This allows us to monitor your body’s reaction and ensure you feel comfortable with the process.
What to Expect After Your First Injection:
Some clients notice a reduction in appetite within the first few days.
Mild side effects like nausea or fatigue can occur but usually subside quickly.
You’ll start feeling more in control of your cravings, leading to better portion control and gradual weight loss.
Step 5: Learning to Self-Administer at Home
At your first in-office dose, we’ll guide you through safe self-administration so you can confidently continue treatment at home. You’ll receive detailed instructions on:
✅ How to properly draw up and inject your GLP-1 medication.
✅ The best injection sites to minimize discomfort.
✅ How to store and handle the medication for optimal effectiveness.
🔹 At your first appointment, we’ll order your medication and have it shipped directly to your home.
Step 6: Ongoing Support & Progress Monitoring
At Beauty Energy Exchange, your journey doesn’t end with the first appointment—we’re here to support you every step of the way.
Follow-Up Appointments:
🔹 Your first self-injection follow-up is scheduled one week after your initial appointment to ensure proper technique and check in on how you’re feeling.
🔹 Check in every 4 weeks to track progress, adjust dosing, and address any questions.
🔹 We’ll fine-tune your plan as needed to maximize weight loss results.
