Weight Loss

At Nishitan Clinic, we offer a range of medically supervised weight-loss treatments tailored to your individual goals, including GLP-1 therapy to support long-term weight management and a Korean herbal medicine program that promotes a comprehensive approach to weight loss.

GLP-1 Hormone Injection

Available Clinics: Ginza Clinic; Shinjuku Clinic

GLP-1 and GIP are hormones that have attracted attention for their potential role in supporting weight management and overall wellness. These hormones help regulate blood sugar levels after meals. When their activity is increased, appetite may be reduced and fat metabolism may be enhanced, making it easier to manage body weight. Conversely, lower levels of these hormones may result in reduced appetite control and increased food intake, which can contribute to weight gain.
Nishitan Clinic's GLP-1 therapy program allows these hormones to be administered through self-injection or oral medication, helping support appetite control and sustainable weight management.

Fat-Dissolving Injection: BNLS Ultimate

Available Clinics: Ginza Clinic; Shinjuku Clinic

Fat-Dissolving Injections are a non-surgical treatment designed to reduce localized fat deposits and help contour specific areas of the body. Because the treatment targets fat cells directly, results may be longer lasting with appropriate weight management. While some improvement may be noticeable after a single session, a series of treatments is generally recommended for more optimal results. To support the body's natural elimination of the treated fat, we recommend combining this treatment with GLP-1 therapy (injection or oral medication), Korean Herbal Diet Medicine, or Met-Slim.

* To perform the treatment safely we may use a blunt-tipped needle. (Cannula fee JPY 2,200, tax included)

Met-Slim (Metformin)

Available Clinics: Ginza Clinic; Shinjuku Clinic

The Met-Slim is designed to support weight management through physician-prescribed medication.
A sharp rise in blood sugar from meals is what creates a body that gains weight easily.
Blood sugar spikes -> insulin is over-secreted -> glucose is produced -> leftover glucose turns into fat and is stored in the liver, muscles and fat cells ->
fat accumulates steadily, insulin works less well and blood sugar becomes harder to bring down -> you take in more carbohydrate (another spike), and you fall into a vicious circle.
Met-Slim works to lower blood sugar, helping improve blood sugar control and support healthy metabolic function.
