What GLP-1 weight loss in Falls Church includes
GLP-1 weight loss in Falls Church at Skin Lab is a physician-supervised program, not a one-time prescription. After a consult and lab review, you start once-weekly semaglutide or tirzepatide, with the dose raised only as you tolerate it. Monthly visits cover side effects, protein intake, and whether the plan is still the right one.
Semaglutide starts at $375 a month. Tirzepatide starts at $275 a month. Call 703-488-7546 to ask if you are a candidate. Contour without a scale change is EmSculpt NEO. Eligibility questions can also start on patient info.
Program pricing
Monthly pricing includes the medication plan and physician monitoring. It starts at the dose we open with.
Tirzepatide
Published trials average about 20–25% body-weight loss. Often considered when a dual agonist is the better fit.

Medication plus a monthly check
We pick the drug after the history, not before
Semaglutide mimics GLP-1, which slows emptying and turns hunger down. Tirzepatide also acts on GIP. Published trials report higher average loss with tirzepatide. Your result depends on the dose you can tolerate, what you eat, and how long you stay on the plan.
You inject once a week at home after we teach you. Nausea is common while the dose climbs. We would rather hold a dose than push through a week you cannot eat. This is not a substitute for care of diabetes or heart disease you already have with another physician. Tell us who else is treating you.

What the program covers
A real consult
History, medications, and labs before the first dose. Some people are not started, and we say why.
Slow titration
The dose goes up only when the last dose was tolerable. Nausea is a reason to pause, not a badge.
Monthly monitoring
Weight, side effects, and whether protein and strength work are keeping up with the appetite change.
Two medications
Semaglutide or tirzepatide, chosen for your history. You are not locked into the first one if it is the wrong fit.
Home injections
Once a week, after we show you. You do not come in for every shot.
Clear pricing
Semaglutide from $375 a month. Tirzepatide from $275 a month. No surprise add-on for the follow-up itself.
What to expect
Consult and labs
We review history and decide whether a GLP-1 is appropriate, and which one.
First doses
You learn the weekly injection. The dose stays low until side effects are manageable.
Monthly check-ins
We adjust dose, food, and training. The program is built to be stayed on, not finished in a sprint.
Weight loss questions
What is GLP-1 weight loss in Falls Church?
A physician-supervised plan using once-weekly semaglutide or tirzepatide. We review history and labs first, then set a dose and see you monthly. It is not a vial handed over without a follow-up.
What is the difference between semaglutide and tirzepatide?
Semaglutide acts on the GLP-1 receptor. Tirzepatide acts on GLP-1 and GIP. In published trials, average loss is often higher with tirzepatide. Which one you use depends on your history, side effects, and the plan we write, not a preference quiz.
How much does the program cost?
Semaglutide starts at $375 per month. Tirzepatide starts at $275 per month. The monthly visit covers the medication plan and monitoring. Dose changes can change the price, and we say so before that happens.
Who is a candidate?
Typically a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related condition, after a physician review. Some medications, a history of certain thyroid tumors, and pregnancy are reasons we do not start.
What are the common side effects?
Nausea, fullness, and changes in bowel habits are the ones people report most, especially while the dose is increasing. We titrate slowly and adjust if you cannot eat normally. Call us before you skip a dose on your own.
Do I have to change how I eat?
The medication reduces appetite. Protein, strength work, and a plan for when the dose is stable are what keep the loss from being only muscle and water. Coaching is part of the monthly visit.
