What is the Skinny Shot?

You may be wondering, what is the Skinny Shot? Simply put, this injection works by regulating how your body responds to hunger cues. By re-training your brain to understand feelings of fullness, the Skinny Shot reduces calorie intake effortlessly.

At MyBodyMD, we use semaglutide and tirzepatide, which are medications originally designed for managing type 2 diabetes.

The Skinny Shot is known to provide the following benefits:

  • Control hunger and unwanted cravings
  • Boost metabolic function
  • Improve energy levels
  • Reduce fat storage
  • Enhance weight loss results

So, whether you have stubborn lower back fat or want to lose those love handles, the Skinny Shot may be able to help.

How long will it take to reach my goals?

It's important to have smart weight loss goals when it comes to using the Skinny Shot in Houston, TX. First, patients should understand that their treatment time will vary based on weight, diet, exercise routine, and overall health. That said, Dr. Bidros estimates that most people see results within six weeks of starting the Skinny Shot treatment. However, the Skinny Shot is not a magic solution and should be used in conjunction with healthy lifestyle choices for the best results possible.

  • You have stubborn lower back fat or fat pockets in the abdomen, thighs, or arms

Dr. Bidros and his staff are truly wonderful. After three bouts with cancer, he brought me through in the most beautiful way. Happier than I’ve been in many years, and I will recommend him every chance I get. He has a wonderful team with him, and they deserve every bit of my thankful respect. I am lucky to have a team of doctors I love, but their staff, not so much. Not so here. It is a joy every step of the beautiful way with his staff, his work, and his practice. I feel blessed my doctors put him at the top of my list. He is helping me feel pretty again!

I had my breast reduction with Dr Bidros after doing 6 other consultations. I choose Dr Bidros because of his honesty when answering my questions, addressing ALL of my concerns and even his nurses and office staff are respectful which is HARD to find unfortunately. Fast forward to the day of my surgery, Dr Bidros came in, got me ready, and even reminded that I’m in great hands. After surgery Dr Bidros spoke with my family and kept them in the loop about my care. During my healing process I had an issue, called the office and was able to speak with Dr Bidros which is different from leaving a message and getting a call back within 24 BUSINESS hours especially after having surgery. His bedside manner is also HARD to find!! If you’re searching for a surgeon who’s a perfectionist with amazing office staff give them a try. I searched for months until I found Dr Bidros and I hope this review can help someone who searched long and hard like I did.
