About Desert Derma MedSpa - Linda Beymer, MSN-RN

What is Desert Derma MedSpa?

Desert Derma MedSpa is a medical spa in Peoria, Arizona, at 24650 N Lake Pleasant Pkwy, inside the Sola Salon Suites, with GLP-1 weight loss listed as one line among a long menu of injectables, facial rejuvenation and laser treatments. It is run by Linda Beymer, MSN, RN, who is also the practice's only listed prescriber. The core business here is clearly aesthetics: Botox, Dysport, Jeuveau, Sculptra, dermal fillers, microneedling, chemical peels, radiofrequency skin tightening and laser hair restoration all get detailed pages, while the weight loss program does not.

The weight loss page itself says the semaglutide once offered through a compounding pharmacy called Strive Pharmacy is no longer available, and asks interested patients to "contact us for the New GLP-1, & GLP-2 Weight-loss Program." No replacement medication is named anywhere. It also serves Glendale, Arizona patients, though the only address given is the Peoria location.

What does it cost?

Desert Derma does not publish prices for the GLP-1 or GLP-2 program, so there is no monthly fee, consultation fee or per-dose cost to compare here. What is published is pricing for the aesthetic membership: $99 a year plus $9.99 a month, which brings discounted per-unit pricing on Botox ($9.50), Jeuveau ($8.50) and Dysport ($3.20), along with 10 percent or more off fillers and other treatments. That membership can be canceled at any time, in its own words: "You may cancel at any time." None of this membership pricing is stated to apply to the weight loss program, so ask directly whether it does.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which GLP-1 or GLP-2 medication is actually being offered now, since semaglutide through Strive Pharmacy has been discontinued and nothing has replaced it publicly. Ask whether Linda Beymer, MSN, RN, is the one who will evaluate you and write the prescription, and if not, who does. Ask for the full cost of the weight loss program, including whether medication is included in any monthly fee or billed separately, what a consultation costs, and whether the aesthetic membership discounts apply to weight loss services. Ask whether the medication would be brand-name or compounded, where it is dispensed from, and what the cancellation terms are for the weight loss program specifically, since the published cancellation policy is tied to the aesthetic membership.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you already know you want injectables or skin treatments from a nurse-run med spa and are curious whether its newer weight loss program might fit alongside that, as long as you are ready to call and ask what medication and pricing actually apply before you commit to anything.
