Understanding Weight Changes

Weight fluctuations are a natural part of life, influenced by hormones, metabolism, stress, and lifestyle. But when those systems fall out of sync, the body can struggle to regulate energy and composition effectively.

At Auri Aesthetics in Gilbert, we don’t see weight as a number to chase; we see it as a reflection of how the body is functioning. Our medical weight management programs are grounded in science, personalization, and long-term sustainability. Whether you’re seeking healthy fat loss, addressing metabolic resistance, or rebuilding muscle after unintentional weight loss, our team creates a plan that helps your body and confidence find equilibrium.

This is not about restriction. It’s about renewal.

Why Weight Management Is About More Than Calories

Traditional diets often focus on short-term results and external control, ignoring the body’s hormonal and metabolic reality. At Auri, we address the root causes of weight fluctuation, not just its symptoms.

Common contributors to weight imbalance include:

  • Hormonal changes (perimenopause, menopause, testosterone decline)
  • Thyroid or adrenal dysfunction
  • Insulin resistance or blood sugar irregularity
  • Gut inflammation and nutrient deficiency
  • Chronic stress or poor sleep
  • Slowed metabolism from restrictive dieting

By identifying and addressing these internal factors, we help patients achieve results that feel natural and sustainable.

Our Approach to Weight Management

Every patient begins with a comprehensive medical evaluation, including lab testing, consultation, and health history, to uncover the biological factors influencing their weight. From there, we build a customized plan integrating medical therapy, nutrition, and metabolic support.

Our process includes:

  • Metabolic and hormonal testing to understand how your body stores and burns energy
  • Customized treatment protocols combining prescription therapy, peptide support, and nutrition guidance
  • Ongoing provider check-ins to adjust treatment and track progress
  • Education and accountability to empower lasting change

Your plan is designed for your physiology, not for mass trends or generic programs.

Medical Therapies for Weight Optimization

Semaglutide and GLP-1 Therapies

One of the most effective tools in modern weight management, Semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) helps regulate appetite, blood sugar, and energy balance.

Benefits:

  • Reduces hunger and cravings naturally
  • Improves insulin sensitivity
  • Supports steady, sustainable fat loss
  • Encourages mindful eating and portion control

Our providers use precise dosing and close monitoring to ensure optimal outcomes and minimal side effects.

Peptide Therapy and Pharmaceuticals

For patients whose challenges stem from hormonal or metabolic dysfunction, peptides and adjunctive medications can improve fat metabolism, muscle recovery, and energy production.

Examples include:

  • CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin: Supports growth hormone and metabolism
  • AOD 9604: Promotes fat breakdown and energy use
  • L-carnitine injections: Enhances fat oxidation and endurance
  • NAD+ therapy: Rejuvenates cellular energy and performance

Hormone Optimization

Weight resistance often signals hormonal imbalance. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) helps restore equilibrium, particularly in women during perimenopause or men experiencing testosterone decline.

Benefits:

  • Increases energy and motivation
  • Improves lean muscle composition
  • Reduces fat accumulation in the abdomen and thighs
  • Balances mood and sleep quality

At Auri, hormonal and metabolic health are treated as interconnected systems—optimized together for better results.

Nutritional and Lifestyle Integration

No prescription replaces proper nourishment and movement. Our wellness programs include nutrition education and lifestyle strategies that complement your medical care.

Core principles:

  • Focus on whole, nutrient-rich foods
  • Balance macronutrients to support stable energy
  • Hydrate and replenish electrolytes
  • Prioritize sleep and stress recovery
  • Support gut health through testing and targeted supplements

We also partner with medical-grade supplement brands such as Orthomolecular, Pure Encapsulations, and Nutrafol to provide pharmaceutical-grade support for metabolism and cellular repair.

Weight Gain Support

Not all patients struggle with weight loss; some experience unexplained or unintentional weight loss that signals underlying imbalance. This may stem from thyroid dysfunction, nutritional deficiency, or hormonal disruption.

Our team designs targeted protocols to restore lean mass and vitality, integrating nutrient IV therapy, peptide therapy, and metabolic testing to identify the cause and rebuild strength safely.

Goals include:

  • Improving nutrient absorption
  • Increasing muscle tone and endurance
  • Restoring healthy body composition
  • Supporting hormonal and digestive balance

Will I need to follow a strict diet?

No extreme restrictions are required. Your provider will recommend realistic nutrition strategies that support your metabolism and lifestyle.
