Finding it difficult to lose weight, even though you eat right and exercise regularly? You’re not alone. At Renaissance Plastic Surgery, we understand how challenging weight loss can be. We offer medically supervised weight loss solutions, including weight loss injections, so you can achieve and maintain your ideal weight.
What Are Weight Loss Injections?
Weight loss injections are prescription medications designed to assist individuals in losing weight when combined with lifestyle modifications. They represent a significant advancement in medical weight management, offering a non-surgical option for those struggling to achieve meaningful results through diet and exercise alone.
At Renaissance Plastic Surgery, we offer the following weight loss injection options:
- GLP-1 – This FDA-approved prescription injection for weight loss mimics a natural hormone (GLP-1) to regulate appetite and reduce overall calorie intake. It has been clinically proven to promote weight loss when combined with a healthy lifestyle.
- GLP-2 – A dual-action, FDA-approved injectable weight loss medication, GLP-2 targets two key pathways (GIP and GLP-1) to support weight loss and enhance blood sugar control. It’s a particularly strong option for individuals managing obesity, especially those with related health conditions.
- Retatrutide – Retatrutide is a prescription weight loss injection designed to accelerate fat reduction by targeting three distinct receptors involved in metabolic function and appetite control.
Benefits of Weight Loss Injections

Patient Testimonials
This was the best decision I have ever made. I met with Dr. Stefani and hired him & received a full mommy makeover. I had met with several doctors as well, as this was a big decision to make. Dr. Stefani made me feel the most comfortable and he has a great bedside manner. Also, to be completely honest after surgery …He exceeded my expectations. I almost cried after I saw what I looked like after surgery. I had 3 c sections prior and nothing was ever the same after that. I feel better than I did before kids and I wish I did this sooner. If you are even slightly hesitant …don’t be! Dr. Stefani is AMAZING.
Dr. Williams is one of the most caring and talented doctors I have ever met! I was diagnosed with breast CA 2 years ago and was referred to him for reconstruction after choosing to do a bilateral mastectomy. Boy was I scared !! He put me at ease right away with great information on what to expect along and seemed to generally care about me even though we had just met! I knew I was in the best hands! Now after 2 years, not to sound weird, I get compliments on my "new" breasts all the time, even my family Dr gave them a big WOW! Cherry on top, he did a Tummy tuck on me to even out new look, and also get compliments all the time!
Dr. Miguel is the absolute best!! I've had rhinoplasty in the past with another surgeon, and I came in for a consultation with Dr. Miguel for an alar base reduction (narrowing of nostrils). He was so honest with his answer, and he told me it was not needed. He said the procedure was unnecessary, and to leave my nose just the way it is. He told me all the things that could go wrong if I were to go forward with this procedure. I am so grateful for his honesty, and I appreciate his conservative approach. If you are looking for a rhinoplasty surgeon and want honest feedback with natural results, please consult with Dr. Miguel.
