Lipo shots (lipotropic injections)

Lipo shots, or lipotropic injections, combine amino acids and vitamin B12 to support your metabolism and energy while you work toward your weight loss goals. At Cosmetica Med Spa in Boca Raton, they're a quick add-on to our medical weight loss program, starting at $499.

What's in a lipo shot

• Methionine: an amino acid involved in processing fats
• Inositol: a compound that plays a role in how the body uses fats and insulin
• Choline: a nutrient that helps the liver process fat
• Vitamin B12: supports energy and red blood cell health

What lipo shots can and can't do

Lipo shots are a support tool, not a weight loss treatment on their own. They're designed to complement a plan that includes nutrition, activity and, for many clients, a prescription like tirzepatide. Research on lipotropic injections is limited, so we set honest expectations.

Who they're for

• Clients in our medical weight loss program
• People who want extra B12 support while dieting

What to expect

The injection takes a few minutes, with no downtime. Most clients get them weekly or every other week.

How often do people get them?

Many people get them weekly or every other week alongside their weight loss program.

Can I get lipo shots with tirzepatide?
