About Refine Anti-Aging Medicine and Aesthetics

What is Refine Anti-Aging Medicine and Aesthetics?

Refine Anti-Aging Medicine and Aesthetics is a med spa in Oakland, California, at 3645 Grand Ave, Ste 301. The practice is led by Dr. Reshma Vasanwala, who is board-certified in Internal Medicine and board-certified in Anti-aging, Metabolic, and Functional Medicine, and who is the prescriber named for its medical services. While most of its menu is aesthetic work, such as Botox, Dysport, dermal fillers, Sculptra, Radiesse, DiamondGlow facials, chemical peels, Potenza RF microneedling, BBL Hero, and IV vitamin or NAD+ drips, it also runs a medical weight loss program using Wegovy (semaglutide) and Zepbound (tirzepatide), bioidentical hormone therapy for women, testosterone replacement therapy for men, and hormone pellet therapy. Peptide therapy is listed among Dr. Vasanwala's areas of focus as well. Both initial consultations and follow-up visits can be done virtually or in person, serving the San Francisco and Bay Area.

What does it cost?

The initial medical evaluation for the weight loss program costs $300 and includes a consultation with a provider, baseline lab testing, and a treatment plan. After that, there is a monthly membership of $100, which covers follow-up visits every three to four months, prescription refills, and dose adjustments. The GLP-1 medication itself is billed separately, at $229 to $449 a month depending on dose, with a note elsewhere that a 4-vial pack of Wegovy or Zepbound runs $499. The program is self-pay only; it does not accept insurance for weight loss care, though payment plans are offered through Cherry, a third-party lender. For bioidentical hormone therapy, no set price is published. The hormone therapy page says cost depends on the individual and is discussed after a private consultation, so ask directly what a visit, labs, and your specific regimen will run before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether Dr. Vasanwala is the provider who will see you for your particular service, since a med spa this size may use other staff for some treatments. For weight loss, confirm what the $300 evaluation and $100 monthly membership cover versus what you will pay out of pocket for medication each month, and ask how dosing affects where you land in that $229 to $449 range. For hormone therapy, ask for an estimate of total monthly cost once compounding, pellets, or labs are added in, since none of that is listed with a number. It is also worth asking about the cancellation terms for the membership, since none are published, and whether lab work beyond the initial baseline panel carries its own charge.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a single Oakland practice that can handle GLP-1 weight loss, hormone therapy, and a long list of injectable or aesthetic treatments under one physician's direction, with telehealth as an option. It is less of a fit if you are looking for insurance-based care or need firm pricing on hormone therapy before you ever walk in the door, since that part of the practice is quoted only after a private consultation.
