Many men and women exercise regularly and eat healthy, but still struggle to reach their target weight. However, there’s good news. Getting to your ideal weight just got easier with Artemedica’s Skinny Shot.
How the Skinny Shot Works
The most basic explanation of weight loss is to burn more calories than you consume. But for many, eating less can feel miserable. And that’s where our Skinny Shot comes in. It works by tricking your body into eating less and feeling full longer. That way, you can eat a modified diet, while maintaining steady exercise, and finally see results. Other benefits include:
Skinny Shot
Artemedica’s Skinny Shot mimics your body’s appetite hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which causes reduced appetite. As a result, these injections helps individuals see significant results in lowering and managing their weight, specifically for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or overweight.
Skinny Shot PLUS
Artemedica’s Skinny Shot Plus works in the same way as our original Skinny Shot: it mimics the appetite hormone to fool your body into feeling satisfied with less food. But our Skinny Shot Plus also targets another appetite hormone, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), for greater effectiveness.
Skinny Shot MAX
Our Skinny Shot MAX is a gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon receptor agonist that also targets the appetite hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). By targeting 3 hormones instead of 1, our Skinny Shot Max works 3x as hard as our original Skinny Shot. As a result, initial studies saw patients lose up to 24.2% of their initial body weight after 48 weeks.
Skinny Shots at Artemedica
Promising weight loss with a one-and-done injection probably sounds too good to be true, right? Absolutely. Which is why Artemedica’s Skinny Shot isn’t a one-time treatment. Instead, our Skinny Shot is a weight loss program that combines 1x weekly injections with proper diet and exercise.
During your initial consultation, your provider will conduct a physical exam to determine whether the program is right for you. They’ll measure your height, weight, BMI (body mass index) and order blood tests.
They’ll then create a customized treatment plan tailored specifically for your body and weight loss goals. They will also take the time to discuss the pros and cons of Skinny Shots as a treatment option, what results you can expect, and next steps so you can make a confident, well-informed decision.
If you are approved for the program, you’ll be enrolled promptly and will need to visit the Artemedica clinic weekly for injections and progress check-ins.

Cost of Skinny Shot Injections
Skinny Shots are priced per month, so costs vary by patient. Your cosmetic goals will determine how many months you will need to be enrolled in the weight loss injection program. During your initial consultation, you and your injector will discuss how long you will need to be enrolled.
Alternative and Complementary Procedures at Artemedica
Artemedica’s Skinny Shot is an excellent weight loss solution for individuals with obesity or overweight. However, it isn’t appropriate for individuals looking to lose just a couple of pounds or for those who want to target specific, stubborn fat pockets. But there are alternatives.
CoolSculpting
Coolsculpting is a revolutionary body contouring and fat reduction treatment that uses cryolipolysis, otherwise known as fat freezing, to freeze the fat cells in the treated area. And Artemedica was the first practice in the North Bay to offer this innovative solution.
CoolTone
CoolTone is an innovative body contouring and muscle enhancing treatment that uses Active Magnetic Pulse stimulation to trigger muscle growth. This magnetic muscle stimulation induces powerful muscle contractions that the body could not otherwise do on its own.
EMSCULPT
EMSCULPT uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy to create powerful induced muscle contractions not achievable through exercise. This results in stronger, thicker muscles and a more sculpted physique.
Kybella
Kybella uses deoxycholic acid, a naturally occurring molecule, to breakdown and absorb fat. When injected into the fat beneath the chin, Kybella destroys these fat cells, resulting in reduced fullness under the chin.
