MEDICATION OPTIONS
Mantra Aesthetic Studio offers a variety of medication options for its weight loss program, tailored to meet each individual's needs and goals. These include Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, both GLP-1 receptor agonists that help regulate appetite, promote a feeling of fullness, and support healthy weight loss by enhancing fat metabolism and improving blood sugar control.These medications, combined with personalized diet and exercise plans, create a comprehensive and effective weight loss solution for Mantra’s clients.
Let's compare all aspects of these medications, including how they work in the body, their effectiveness, side effects, and cost considerations.
Semaglutide
Function
- Acts as a GLP-1 receptor "booster"
- Reduces hunger and slows food passage from the stomach to the small intestine, promoting a feeling of fullness.
- Lowers blood sugar by decreasing sugar production in the liver and increasing insulin production.
Administration
- Administered subcutaneously once a week.
- Available in various strengths, tailored by compounding pharmacies.
How Does Compounded Semaglutide Work?
Mechanism
- Mimics naturally occurring GLP-1 hormone
- Regulates hunger, leading to reduced food intake.
- Slows the passage of food through the intestines, keeping food in the stomach longer, which prolongs the feeling of fullness.

Tirzepatide
Function
- Acts as a GIP and GLP-1 receptor "booster"
- Reduces hunger and slows food passage from the stomach to the small intestine, promoting a feeling of fullness.
- Lowers blood sugar by decreasing sugar production in the liver and increasing insulin production.
​
Administration
- Administered subcutaneously once a week.
- Available in various strengths, tailored by compounding pharmacies.
How Does Compounded Tirzepatide Work?
Mechanism
- Mimics naturally occurring GLP-1 hormone to regulate hunger, causing reduced food intake.
- Imitates GIP hormone, which raises blood glucose levels and induces feelings of fullness.
- Slows the passage of food through the intestines, keeping food in the stomach longer, which prolongs the feeling of fullness.
- Superior to semaglutide due to action on two hormone receptors vs

Kybella or PCDC injections
Do you have "fat pockets" that you wish to eliminate but prefer a non-invasive approach? Non-surgical alternatives exist to target and eradicate fat cells without resorting to liposuction or enduring prolonged treatments. Kybella® and/or PCDC injections, often referred to as “liquid lipo,” possess the capability to pinpoint and eliminate fat cells in specific areas. At Mantra Aesthetic Studio, we provide liquid lipo treatments tailored to slim targeted body areas at our Virginia Beach clinic.​
​
​
FDA-approved for addressing submental fat (double chin), Kybella injections leverage deoxycholic acid, a digestive acid that naturally breaks down fat in the intestines. The synthetic form of this acid in Kybella precisely targets and dissolves fat cells in the designated treatment zone. Kybella injections are effective for permanently eliminating fat cells from beneath the chin or other chosen regions.
​
NON-SURGICAL LIPOSUCTION
Liquid lipo injections, utilized off-label for fat dissolving, can effectively remove fat from specific areas. This treatment involves administering multiple injections into the targeted zone through a series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart. Following the injection of deoxycholic acid, fat cells begin to dissolve, and the body absorbs the released fat. Over subsequent weeks, the treated area undergoes a reduction in size, resulting in a permanent change in the body's shape. Popular areas for non-surgical lipo injections include:
-
Double chin
-
Flanks
-
Abdomen
-
Back or bra fat
-
Knees
Sculptra, Radiesse, or PRF
There are numerous options for buttock lifts, catering to diverse preferences. Some individuals seek a fuller, more rounded profile to enhance their curves, while others desire a subtle boost that squats alone may not achieve. With an increasing number of our diverse patients from Hampton Roads expressing interest in buttock enhancement, we find it valuable to explore the latest trends and the cutting-edge procedures we currently offer.

​How Liquid BBL Works:
Comprised of biocompatible, biodegradable poly-L-lactic acid (Sculptra) or calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) (Radiesse) gradually absorbs into the body, encouraging collagen production in the treated area. Injected into the deep dermis, it improves skin texture, reducing dimpling and cellulite.
Procedure Overview:
​​​​​​Before the injection, a thorough consultation and pre-procedure photos are taken. The desired product placement is outlined, and local anesthetic is applied. The injection process, similar to filler procedures elsewhere, takes longer due to the larger volume used. Post-procedure, the buttocks may experience soreness, swelling, bruising, and mild lumpiness. Proper massaging is recommended to ensure even distribution and desired outcomes.
Results Timeline:
Initial swelling and bruising subside over a few weeks, with massaging aiding product integration. Improvement in skin appearance and contouring becomes noticeable over the time frame specified by your provider. Additional treatments can be considered for those seeking more volume. Most patients achieve their desired results with 1-3 treatments.
​
In Summary:
This non-surgical option caters to individuals averse to surgery or those too slender for a conventional BBL. These developments present an exciting opportunity to enhance buttock contouring safely and effectively. The approach allows for an incremental increase in buttock volume, accommodating high variability based on individual preferences and desired outcomes.​
Alternatives to Liquid BBL
In the past, butt implants made of solid silicone were the go-to for adding volume to the buttocks. These were originally placed over the gluteal muscles but eventually moved into the muscle to look more natural. However, implants have some downsides—they can shift over time due to muscle movement, causing them to loosen, and in some cases, even flip, which isn’t ideal. The procedure also requires a large incision, making it less popular today as people turn to the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL).
​
The BBL, which uses your own fat, has become a top choice. Fat is taken from other areas through liposuction, then purified and injected into the butt. While it’s a safer, natural option, results depend on how much fat you have, so if you're low on body fat, the effect may be subtle. With improvements, the technique is now much safer.
​
For those who don’t have enough fat or want a non-surgical option, fillers like Sculptra and Radiesse are a great alternative for a "liquid BBL." These fillers last over two years and offer a safer way to add volume without the risks of unregulated injections with unsafe substances.
