Medical Weight Loss
Struggling to lose weight despite your best efforts? At James Hardy Plastic Surgery, we offer medically supervised weight loss programs using prescription weight loss injections to help patients in Jacksonville, Orange Park, and St. Johns County achieve sustainable results without surgery or stimulants.
What Are Prescription Weight Loss Injections?
Prescription weight loss injections are part of a newer class of GLP-1-based medications that help regulate appetite and support metabolic function. These doctor-prescribed injectable weight loss medications work with your body’s natural signals, making it easier to eat less, feel full faster, and manage blood sugar levels.
They’re designed for adults who’ve had limited success with diet and exercise alone. Under medical guidance, these injections offer a modern solution to long-term weight control, especially for those facing weight-related health issues.
How Prescription Weight Loss Injections Work
These treatments are typically administered once a week through a quick, subcutaneous injection. The active medication mimics hormones that tell your brain you’re full, slow down digestion, and reduce cravings. Over time, this can lead to reduced portion sizes, more consistent energy, and improved fat loss.
Dr. Hardy carefully personalizes each dose. Patients begin with a low dose to minimize side effects, and it’s gradually adjusted based on your progress. Regular check-ins at our Jacksonville clinic allow us to track your results and make safe, effective modifications along the way.
Who Is a Good Candidate for This Program?
This doctor-supervised weight loss program is a good fit for adults who:
- Are 18 or older
- Have a BMI of 27 or above
- Struggle with traditional diet and exercise programs
- Have weight-related health concerns such as high blood pressure, insulin resistance, or sleep apnea
- Want a non-surgical option backed by medical oversight
During your consultation, Dr. Hardy will review your health history, lifestyle, and goals to determine if GLP-1-based injectable weight loss treatment is appropriate.

Benefits of Injectable Weight Loss Treatments
Many patients choose prescription weight loss injections because they offer:
- Reduced appetite and fewer cravings
- Better portion control
- Targeted fat loss with clinical supervision
- Improved blood sugar regulation
- Boosted energy and motivation
- Sustainable results with long-term follow-up
Unlike stimulant-based diets, this medical weight loss solution supports your metabolism and mindset, helping you build lasting momentum.
Recovery Timeline and Results
There’s no downtime required after your injections, so you can resume your daily routine right away. Most patients come in for weekly or biweekly check-ins, where progress is evaluated and dosage adjustments are made if needed.
Some people start noticing changes in their appetite and energy within four to six weeks. More visible fat loss typically becomes noticeable after about three months. The most consistent and long-lasting results are seen in patients who stick with their appointments and commit to healthier habits like regular physical activity and mindful eating. Long-term success depends on both the treatment and your willingness to maintain a balanced, supportive lifestyle.
