Losing weight is a gradual and demanding process that goes far beyond counting the calories you eat or the intensity of your workouts. Most people who are overweight have already been on restrictive diets and find it difficult to lose fat because they don’t work on the root of the problem. At Skin Boutique, weight loss treatment is based on a holistic view of health – physical, emotional, social and cultural – and is a medical approach that allows for a safe and lasting weight loss process. To achieve this, our team of Endocrinology and General Medicine doctors work in close collaboration with each patient to create a 100% personalized medical treatment that facilitates the adoption of a healthy, natural and sustained routine. Below, we explain how weight loss consultations work in Lisbon, Porto and Cascais and share four stories of patients who have achieved inspiring transformations.
Skin Boutique weight loss consultation: How does it work?
Understanding each patient’s reality, creating new habits and maintaining regular follow-up are the foundations of weight loss consultations in Porto, Lisbon and Cascais. Find out more about each stage:
Detailed medical diagnosis
The weight loss consultation assesses factors such as:
- Lifestyle;
- Eating habits;
- Emotional state (such as anxiety, binge eating)
- Hormonal changes (such as menopause, thyroid problems)
- Medication.
Only after this diagnosis can a safe and healthy weight loss plan with lasting results be drawn up.
100% personalized plan
Skin Boutique’s weight loss treatment lasts several months and includes a nutritional coaching plan under medical supervision and therapy, when indicated. During this period, gradual changes in the patient’s eating habits and physical activity are suggested, leading to the adoption of a new lifestyle in a natural and sustained way. It is also possible to complement the process with minimally invasive body treatments (to combat flaccidity, cellulite or localized fat), which reinforce the results and improve the body’s aesthetics.

Regular medical check-ups
The pace of weight loss differs from person to person and the results depend very much on the profile and dedication of each individual, as well as the body’s response to changes and therapy. As such, the number of appointments varies according to each patient’s needs. Consultations take place on a scheduled basis to analyze results, adjust the plan whenever necessary and ensure that the patient remains motivated throughout the journey.
