HCG Diet

Surface Medical Spas’ approach to the HCG diet is different and proven to be more successful than any version before. Our blend of physician care, exercise and diet are the perfect combination of care for our patients to reach their goals.

“The success I have seen with the HCG diet at Surface Medical Spa has been like nothing I have ever experienced before. I have tried every diet out there; from Body for Life to the Hollywood juice diet and was never able to lose the weight I desired or keep any of it off. More often than not, as soon as I finished these types of trendy diets I would gain it all back and more. I lost 30 pounds in 35 days on the HCG diet and have kept it off for over a year! I am thrilled and starting my second round of HCG; 25 more pounds to go until I reach my pre baby weight and I know I can get there with HCG!” -Lexie J.

Using the HCG hormone, a naturally occurring hormone during pregnancy (human chorionic gonadotropin) is injected into the body and seems to be able to reset the body’s metabolism.

Absolutely, there have been 100’s of thousands if not millions of men on this diet and it has proven to be safe. We know of no reported cases of adverse effects from the diet. Men will usually see an increase in testosterone production during the diet because HCG stimulates its production.

Yes! Not all patient lose this amount but many do and some lose even more! There is no other diet out there that offers weight loss this quickly and most patients are able to keep it off long term if they follow recommended guidelines.

The HCG diet does require that you give yourself a shot once daily of HCG. The needle used is very small and extremely easy to do on your own. We also have tricks to make the shot painless. Really!

While the diet is restrictive our patients find that food preparation is far easier on the HCG diet than it normally is. Meals are simple. Food is light and clean.

Our patients usually don’t complain about hunger during the course of their HCG diet due to the use of the HCG hormone. If hunger is an issue, it is usually a psycological reaction to stopping life-long eating habit such as; television eating, boredom eating, social eating and other triggers that tell a person they should be eating. Some patients will have to modify some behaviors if they have these problems. Most people don’t really experience hunger and some have to be reminded to eat.
