VITAMIN B12 AND LIPOTROPIC INJECTIONS
Skinny shots are a combination of vitamins, amino acids, and lipotropic agents. They are designed to jumpstart the body’s metabolism to promote weight loss. These shots improve the liver’s ability to absorb and remove fat from the body. They also boost energy, suppress appetite, increase metabolism, burn fat and promote hormone balance. They are a once weekly intramuscular injection that can be done in office by the provider or can be self-administered.
**Must not have allergy to sulfa drugs. If you have an allergy to sulfa- must notify provider and a different formulation will be provided for you that is sulfa-free.**
Lipo – B Fat Burning Formula / MIC
The Lipo-B (MIC) injection is a product that contains a combination of compounds that have been shown to exhibit lipotropic effects. The lipotropic effects facilitate the burning of adipose tissue within the human body which may, consequently, result in some degree of weight loss. Lipo-B injections are typically used as fat loss supplements, in combination with diet and exercise, in weight loss plans. The combination of products that make up the Lipo-B (MIC) injection are methionine, choline, and cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12).
Lipo – C Fat Burning and Energy / MICC
LIPO-C is a favorite for patients looking to boost energy, burn fat, and protect lean muscle. This specially compounded blend includes Methionine, Choline Chloride, L-Carnitine, and Vitamin B5 (Dexpanthenol). It is a lipotropic injection, which means it encourages fat burn to help patients work toward fat loss goals. When combined with a healthy diet and exercise, lipotropic injections like LIPO-C have assisted patients in achieving healthier body composition.
LIPO-C is particularly effective at encouraging the body to burn fat from hard-to-lose areas like the tummy, inner thighs and buttocks, neck and hips.
AminoMultiplex
Arginine HCL – L-arginine is an amino acid that helps the body build protein. Because L-Arginine acts as a vasodilator, opening (dilating) blood vessels, many people take L-Arginine to treat heart conditions and erectile dysfunction. It has been researched for: Angina, hypertension, e.d, peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
Glutamine – Glutamine is an important amino acid with many functions in the body. It is a building block of protein and critical part of the immune system. Glutamine has a special role in intestinal health.
Lysine HCL – Lysine is a building block for protein. It’s an essential amino acid because your body cannot make it, so you need to obtain it from food. It is important for normal growth and muscle turnover and is used to form carnitine, a substance found in most cells of your body. It may protect against cold sores. It may reduce anxiety by blocking stress response receptors. It may promote wound healing by helping create collagen.
Proline – Proline is an amino acid that is non-essential, meaning that our bodies can make adequate amounts during most phases of our lives. However, during times of stress, healing, or growth, this amino acid becomes essential as our requirements exceed the amount that our bodies can make. Proline is needed for the production of collagen and cartilage. It keeps muscles and joints flexible and helps reduce sagging and wrinkling that accompany UV exposure and normal aging of the skin. It also helps the body break down proteins for use in creating healthy cells in the body.

Vitamin B12
B12 shots have been shown to boost mood, increase energy, and provide an improved sense of well-being. They can also help treat B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 is a key vitamin for mood, energy, nervous system function, and more. Our bodies don’t create vitamin B12, so we receive it through diet and supplementation.
Often, a deficiency happens because your body is unable to absorb vitamin B12 from food. Vegetarians and vegans may also experience B12 deficiency, because animal products are the most common source of dietary B12. People on heavily restricted diets may also experience vitamin B12 deficiency.
