Medical Weight Loss
Our comprehensive medical weight loss programs combine prescription medications, dietary supplements, and personalized lifestyle coaching. We address hormonal imbalances and metabolic resistance through evidence-based approaches led by experienced physicians. Patients receive ongoing support through regular progress monitoring and tailored treatment adjustments, ensuring sustainable results while maintaining financial accessibility through flexible package options that prioritize both wellness outcomes and budget considerations.
Botox Injections
Botox injections utilize purified neurotoxin to temporarily reduce facial wrinkles by relaxing targeted muscles. This FDA-approved treatment effectively addresses frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead creases while offering therapeutic benefits for conditions like migraines. Skilled practitioners ensure natural-looking results with minimal discomfort during quick 10-20 minute sessions that require no downtime, maintaining consistent quality across all treatment areas and patient profiles.
Skin Tightening
Advanced skin tightening procedures employ fractional CO2 laser technology to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture. Treatments effectively address wrinkles, scars, sun damage, and facial laxity through customizable protocols that adapt to individual skin conditions. The non-invasive approach with minimal downtime makes it ideal for patients seeking facial rejuvenation without surgical intervention, supported by experienced technicians and comprehensive post-treatment care guidance.
Vitamin Injections
Our vitamin injection programs deliver essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream for maximum absorption and immediate effects. The comprehensive range includes B12 for energy, glutathione for detoxification, and specialized blends like Lipotonix for metabolic support. Each formulation addresses specific wellness goals from immune enhancement to skin health improvement, administered by trained professionals who ensure proper dosage and injection technique for optimal therapeutic outcomes.
Laser Hair Removal
This advanced laser hair removal system uses targeted light energy to permanently reduce unwanted hair growth across multiple skin tones. The treatment effectively addresses facial and body hair concerns through precise follicle targeting that minimizes discomfort and skin damage. Multiple sessions typically required for lasting results, with personalized treatment plans accommodating various hair and skin types while maintaining consistent procedural standards across all patient demographics.

Today I had my first visit and I'd definitely recommend it. Staff was kind & helpful, doctor made me feel comfortable and I was in and out fast! Plenty of free parking, easy to navigate and the office is clean and quiet. I'm visiting for a medical weight loss plan (phentermine) and I'm excited to keep coming back regularly to reach my goals at this office. They also offer a wide range of cosmetic products and procedures that I might look into to reward myself as I succeed on my weight loss plan :) Thank you, Doctor Michael & staff!

UPDATE. I just want to take a moment to thank the great folks at Viva Wellness for maintaining such great customer service and medical care during the COVID-19 pandemic! My overall health actually improved during the pandemic. The glutathione and vitamin injections along with a healthy lifestyle have helped me maintain optimal health despite COVID-19 and all the associated stressors. In addition, the staff at Viva Wellness continues to be super friendly and helpful every time I visit. Keep up the good work! Thanks again! Gary Youssef Jr

Had some concerns regarding a filler that I had done by Dr M. It was a filler that I have been doing at another plastic surgeons office for years. The questions were regarding the placement of the filler, and why the injection sites were completely asymmetrical. I had lumps and swelling in locations that I should not have had, even though the injection was done with a cannula, (which I am also familiar with).
I sent a detailed email and text, and a week later, still no response. Please don't go to this place if you expect any follow up concerns addressed. Ridiculous, and I am sure the office would blame it all on Covid. Also, the location is located right next to an area with a large population of homeless, they are everywhere around and in front of the building.
