Treatment goals

What we aim to achieve

Results vary by patient. Dr. Mónica Restrepo Moreno will assess you during the consultation.

Weight loss under medical supervision

Specialized, personalized follow-up.

Improvement in Comorbidities

Aims to reduce blood glucose, blood pressure, and metabolic markers.

No Surgery or Anesthesia

An outpatient alternative that is reversible and adaptable to your lifestyle.

How it works

1

Assessment with Body Composition Analysis

I review your complete medical history and perform bioimpedance analysis (InBody 380) to measure fat, muscle mass, and visceral fat. With this objective data, we define the appropriate path for you.
2

Personalized Plan

We define the treatment plan based on your history, background, and associated conditions. No weight management medication should be started without medical supervision.
3

Interdisciplinary Team

Nutrition, sports medicine, and psychology support the process to consolidate habits that can be maintained.
4

Regular Check-ups

Medical follow-up to adjust treatment and verify with body composition analysis that what you lose is fat and not muscle.

“Mi experiencia con la Dra. Mónica Restrepo ha sido excelente. Desde mucho antes de mi cirugía recibí un acompañamiento muy completo; todo me fue explicado con claridad y siempre sentí que estaba en muy buenas manos. El día de la cirugía todo fue muy organizado y diligente. Llegué a la hora acordada y de inmediato comenzaron a prepararme para el procedimiento. Durante mi estancia en la clínica estuvieron muy pendientes de mí y me hicieron sentir cuidada y acompañada en todo momento. La Dra. Mónica es una excelente profesional y se nota la experiencia y el amor con el que realiza su trabajo. Pero, además de ella, quiero destacar a todo su equipo, porque el acompañamiento de cada una de las personas que estuvo conmigo fue maravilloso. Hoy, a tan poquito tiempo de mi cirugía, poder ver los cambios que ya estoy experimentando me hace sentir que tomar esta decisión valió completamente la pena. Estoy muy satisfecha y agradecida con todo el proceso. ❤️ Recomendaría a ojos cerrados a la Dra. Mónica Restrepo y a todo su equipo. Gracias por acompañarme en una decisión tan importante y hacer que todo este proceso fuera mucho más tranquilo y bonito.🙏🏼❤️”

Frequently asked questions

How long does pharmacological treatment for obesity last?

Pharmacological treatment is an individualized process. The duration may vary considerably depending on your response, health goals, and the specific medication. My goal is to support you in a sustainable process.

What are the costs associated with pharmacological management?

Pharmacological treatment has a value starting from $4,000,000. The costs include medical consultations, medications (whose value varies depending on the laboratory and type), and follow-up with my multidisciplinary team. We will provide you with all detailed information during the initial assessment.

What side effects might I experience with the medication?

As with any medication, side effects may occur. The most common ones are usually nausea or digestive discomfort. During the consultation, I will explain in detail the possible effects of each option and how to manage them for your comfort.

What should I expect from the first consultation?

In our first consultation, we will conduct a complete assessment of your medical history, habits, and goals. It is a space to address your questions and determine if pharmacological management is the right option for you, always with a compassionate approach.

Are there contraindications for the pharmacological management of obesity?

Yes, some medical conditions or the use of certain medications can be contraindications. Therefore, a thorough medical evaluation is essential to help ensure your safety and choose the most suitable option for your health.

If pharmacological management is not for me, what other options are available?

If this option is not the most suitable, we can explore alternatives such as the intragastric balloon or bariatric surgery, always within a comprehensive and personalized approach. My team is here to support you at every stage.
