Medical Weight Management in Vancouver
A medically supervised service at our Fairview Skin Lab, built around an assessment with a licensed provider. No template, no quick fix.
Book a ConsultationMost people who ask about medical weight management in Vancouver have tried a few things already. They're not looking for another program to follow alone. They want a proper assessment, a plan that fits their life, and someone paying attention alongside them.
That's how the service is built at FaceCrime. It starts with a conversation, not a plan. A licensed provider looks at your history and your goals, and the two of you decide together whether the service is a sensible fit. If it isn't, we'll say so.
We're in Fairview, a block from Kitsilano.

Weight Loss That Starts With a Comprehensive Plan
A plan that fits your life is one you can actually keep up, and that tends to matter more than a dramatic start. We pace it in a way that suits you, and we're honest about what the service can and cannot offer.
It's the reason the assessment comes first, and the reason nothing is decided in advance. You should leave the first appointment understanding the plan, not dazzled by a pitch.
About Medical Weight Management in Vancouver
Medical weight management is a service where a licensed provider works with you under clinical supervision. It begins with an assessment that looks at your history, your goals, and the wider context, then moves into an individualized plan. That plan can bring together lifestyle and nutrition support, monitoring, and follow-up.
Medication is one part of the wider conversation, not the whole of it. GLP-1 medications are one class of options that may be discussed with a licensed provider when it's clinically appropriate after assessment. Whether any medication forms part of a plan, and which one, is a clinical decision made with you. For many people, the plan involves no medication at all.
Change takes time, and it varies from person to person. A provider will talk you through what's realistic for your situation, and that honesty is part of the point.

The Process
Assessment
We start with a proper conversation. Your history, your goals, and what you've tried before. If the service isn't a sensible fit, we say so.
The Plan
If it is a fit, we build a plan together. Lifestyle, nutrition, monitoring, and where relevant, a discussion of any options. Nothing is decided in advance.
Getting Started
You begin the plan with the detail understood and agreed. You have full say, and there's no pressure to commit on the day.
Follow-Up
Regular check-ins let a provider see how things are going and adjust, and coordinate with your other providers where that helps.

Medical Weight Management FAQs
What is medical weight management?
It's a medically supervised service. A licensed provider carries out an assessment, talks through your history and goals, and works with you on an individualized plan. It's not a one-size-fits-all program, and any plan is decided together.
Do you offer GLP-1 medications in Vancouver?
GLP-1 medications are one class of options that may be discussed with a licensed provider when clinically appropriate after assessment. Whether any medication is part of a plan, and which one, is a clinical decision made with you, not a given.
Do I have to take medication?
No. Medication is one part of a wider conversation, not a requirement. For many people the plan involves no medication at all. Whether anything is part of your plan is a clinical decision made after assessment.
Does this work alongside my family doctor?
Conventional and clinic-based care answer different questions, and both have value. We're glad to work alongside the providers you already trust and to coordinate where that helps.
