    I enjoyed a relaxing hydrofacial from Kristina and I look forward to going back for more. The office was welcoming and Kristina and the staff (Nicole and Katie) were so nice and professional.

    When I inquired about medications for weight loss I was warmly welcomed by the staff and immediately assisted. There was no pressure of using their services, instead every question I had was answered. The decision was made and I decided to try the terzipitide. I easily needed to lose 25 lbs. I started off at the lowest dose for a month, then with the help you get from the amazing staff (which is invaluable), I’ve slowly gone up in strength of the medication, my last dose was 7.5mg. I’m on my 15th week and honestly I have never seen 27lbs just fall off so effortlessly. It works that’s all I can say, it really works.

    I highly recommend Lifestyle Health Services… I’m on my 3 month there and it’s working like a charm. I feel great and so many of my friends can really see a difference. Annie is awesome she always helps me with scheduling , even when I need to change my appointment last minute Annie is always on top of it. Nicole is amazing too, she really asks me questions about my needs how I’m feeling and always has great suggestions that help me get to the results I want. This is the place if you want results and professional, quality service.

    When I first started doing research about weight loss shots and medical spas, there was so many sites not willing to be upfront about the cost. Lifestyle health services was the first to layout all out and I appreciated the straightforwardness. I originally told myself that I would go in once a month, ask for my shots in advance to be done at home, but as I got to know the staff I love going in for my weekly appointment. Nurse Nicole is wonderful, very personable and is always ready to answer any questions I might have. The receptionist Annie is the best! She has been most generous with her time and understanding if I've had to change an appointment last minute or even come later in the day. I consider them my ladies! The office is very accommodating and I would and have recommended this office and service to anyone asking how I have lost so much weight this past year.

    What is Semaglutide and how does it work?

    Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist medication that works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone in your body. This process boosts insulin production, lowers glucagon levels, and slows stomach emptying.

    By lowering blood sugar levels after eating and helping to control your appetite, it plays a key role in facilitating weight loss and supporting long-term weight management.

    How does Semaglutide differ from Ozempic and Wegovy?

    Both Wegovy and Ozempic contain Semaglutide as their active ingredient, but in different doses.

    These medications are approved for different purposes, each serving a specific medical need.

    Ozempic – Approved for type II diabetes, lower dose than Wegovy.

    Wegovy – Approved for weight management, a higher dose than Ozempic.

    Semaglutide Clinical Trial Weight Loss Results

    Is Semaglutide FDA approved?

    YES, the FDA gave approval to Wegovy in 2021 after reviewing data from four 68-week trials involving 4,500 participants.

    The trials consistently revealed that those using Wegovy had significant weight loss.

    Potential Side Effects of Semaglutide

    Semaglutide’s side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and constipation. While severe allergic reactions are possible, they are extremely rare. Typically, side effects are mild and lessen over time.

    Dr. Michael Rankin will assess your pre-existing conditions and talk through possible side effects during your first consultation, ensuring you’re fully informed.

    Know Your Medical History Before Starting Semaglutide

    At Lifestyle Med Spa, we ensure your Semaglutide treatment is both safe and effective by reviewing your medical history thoroughly. We screen for thyroid cancer, blood vessel disease, multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, and kidney disease. This allows us to understand how your health profile affects the treatment and helps us design a sustainable weight management program that fits your needs.

    Lifestyle Med Spa - Our Story

    Dr. Kim Barrus, chief of operations, took Semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) and lost 22 pounds over the course of four months. He felt more energetic, confident, and healthier as a result.

    Further research validated his personal experience, showing these medications’ effectiveness in both improving appearance and enhancing health.

    Encouraged by these positive outcomes, Dr. Barrus opened the medical spa to offer these treatments to clients across Ventura and Los Angeles counties, as well as throughout Southern California.

    As the spa has grown, we’ve added other services to better serve your health and wellness needs.

    Lifestyle Changes Accelerate Weight Loss

    As a client in Sherman Oaks, you’ll receive Semaglutide injections, and we’ll review your diet and exercise habits together to identify effective ways to accelerate your weight loss through easy lifestyle adjustments.

    Additionally, we provide an Evolt 360 Body Composition Scan, which measures over 40 aspects of your body. This scan helps ensure healthy weight loss by analyzing body mass and vital health indexes, while also preserving lean muscle.
