The Six Tools We Use for Weight Loss
One clinic, six clinically-backed tools. The quiz above maps you to the ONE most likely to work for your body. Often we combine two.
Nutrition Reset
Custom eating plan + monthly accountability with our nutritionist. The right starting point if you’ve never had a real plan or just need someone to keep you on track.
GLP Probiotic
A targeted probiotic that supports your own gut’s natural GLP-1 production. Cuts cravings and improves satiety in 2-3 weeks. Drug-free.
Lipo B Booster Plus
Weekly B12 + lipotropic injection (MIC + amino acids) for liver fat metabolism and energy. The push for people who feel too tired to even start.
GLP-1
The most powerful clinical tool we offer. 15-22% body-weight loss over 6-12 months. Medically prescribed and monitored.
Perfect Amino
Near 100% absorption essential amino acids. Protects muscle during weight loss, supports recovery, and powers metabolism. Often paired with GLP-1.
Hormone Optimization (HRT)
When the real issue is perimenopause, menopause, low T, or thyroid — weight follows hormones. Lab-based protocol with BHRT, pellets, or thyroid support.
Six tools under one roof. One conversation to find yours.
Most weight loss clinics sell ONE thing — whatever they make money on. We don’t. We have all six tools in-house, and the first 15-minute phone consult is about which one (or two) actually fits you.
- Free 15-minute phone consult — no commitment, no upsell
- Medical team on staff — GLP-1, HRT, and Lipo B require a prescriber, and we have one
- Real lab work, not guessing — if hormones are part of your story, we test before we prescribe
- Combined protocols — e.g. GLP-1 + Perfect Amino to protect muscle
- Monthly check-ins — weight loss without check-ins is how you stall
Medical Weight Loss in North Charleston, SC
Charleston Pain Relief Center offers a six-tool medical weight loss program for patients across North Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Summerville, Goose Creek, Hanahan, Ladson, and the greater Lowcountry. We are not a quick-fix shake clinic and we are not a single-drug prescription mill. Our goal is durable results: get the weight off, keep your muscle, fix the underlying chemistry, and don’t need us forever.
Who medical weight loss is for
- Patients with 10+ lbs to lose who’ve tried diet and exercise without lasting success
- Perimenopause and menopause weight gain that resists every approach
- Low testosterone in men causing belly fat, fatigue, and loss of muscle
- Patients on GLP-1 medications who want to protect muscle and avoid the “GLP-1 face” gaunt look
- Anyone whose primary care provider hasn’t offered options beyond “eat less, exercise more”
Common questions about medical weight loss
Do I need a prescription for GLP-1 medications?
Yes. GLP-1 medications are prescription medications. We have a medical provider on staff who can evaluate, prescribe, and monitor your protocol. The free 15-minute phone consult tells us whether you’re a good candidate.
Is GLP Probiotic the same as GLP-1?
No. GLP Probiotic is a probiotic supplement that supports your body’s natural GLP-1 production via the gut microbiome. It’s drug-free, available without prescription, and works on a different mechanism. It’s often a great first step before considering GLP-1 medications.
Will insurance cover this?
Coverage varies. Some labs may be covered. GLP-1 medications, HRT, and most supplements are typically out-of-pocket but very reasonable. We accept HSA/FSA and offer payment plans. We verify your situation during the phone consult so there are no surprises.
How fast will I see results?
Depends on the tool. Lipo B and GLP Probiotic: 1-3 weeks for energy and craving changes. GLP-1: 4-8 weeks for visible weight loss. HRT: 6-12 weeks for full hormonal benefits. Nutrition: ongoing — it’s the foundation that makes everything else last.
Do you work with patients already on a GLP-1 medication?
Yes. Many of our patients come to us already on a GLP-1 from another provider and want to add Perfect Amino (to protect muscle), Lipo B (for energy), or HRT (because the underlying hormone issue still isn’t fixed). We can integrate with your existing protocol or take over prescribing.

The 5-component CPRC weight loss program
1. GLP-1 therapy
Once-weekly injection that quiets hunger, slows gastric emptying, and stabilizes blood sugar. The backbone of the plan for most patients.
2. GLP-1 Probiotics
Targeted gut formula that supports natural GLP-1 production and reduces nausea or constipation while you’re on injectable GLP-1.
3. LIPO B Booster Plus
The "Skinny Shot." Methionine, inositol, choline, B12, and lipotropic factors that boost metabolism and energy.
4. Perfect Amino
Complete essential aminos. Preserves lean muscle while you lose fat, curbs hunger, prevents the muscle loss that drives regain.
5. HRT hormone therapy
Locks long-term results in. Most patients who regain weight do so because their hormones were never addressed.
Frequently asked questions
Does the program use medication and injections?
Yes. The CPRC medical weight loss program uses doctor-supervised GLP-1 medication (a once-weekly injection), LIPO B Booster Plus injections, and other clinical support. Earlier site copy described a "no-medication" approach — our current program is different and significantly more effective.
How much weight will I lose?
Most patients lose 20–60 pounds total, with the majority losing 1–2 pounds per week once dosing is dialed in.
How long is the program?
The active loss phase is typically 90 days, followed by a maintenance phase. Most patients stay in maintenance with their provider for 6–12 months to keep results.
Is the clinical team available between visits?
Yes — in-person visits, weekly online check-ins, and phone support. You’re not handed a kit and left alone.
Where can I get the program?
Local-only inside roughly 7 miles of our North Charleston clinic: North Charleston, Hanahan, Daniel Island, Park Circle, Goose Creek (south), Ladson, Charleston (north), and West Ashley (east).

Sometimes the issue isn’t the diet — it’s the hormones.
If you’ve been doing the work and the scale isn’t budging, hormones are often the hidden brake. We see this every week with patients who do everything right and still can’t lose belly fat, sleep, or feel like themselves — especially in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond.
Common signs hormones are part of your weight story:
- Stubborn belly fat that won’t move no matter what
- Tired all the time, even after good sleep
- Lost muscle, less strength in the gym
- Low libido, mood dips, or feeling “flat”
- For women: hot flashes, night sweats, irregular cycles, perimenopause / menopause symptoms
- For men: low drive, soft erections, brain fog, loss of motivation
Many of our patients pair medical weight loss with hormone optimization therapy — and that’s when things finally move. Balanced hormones make GLP-1 medications and lifestyle changes actually work the way they’re supposed to.
