About Functional Beauty

What is Functional Beauty?

Functional Beauty is a medical aesthetics practice with offices in Ventura and Moorpark, California. It was founded in 2021, and Josie Arrigoni is listed as its lead aesthetic provider and founder. Most of what it offers is cosmetic: wrinkle relaxers, dermal fillers, PRF Gel, Sculptra, Skinvive, microneedling, Morpheus8, IPL, chemical peels and laser hair removal. Weight management is one service among these.

That weight management program is built around GLP-1 receptor agonist medication. Its own description calls the program personalized and says it covers nutrition, exercise and medication. The clinic also sells a weight management booster injection, which lists methionine, inositol, choline, vitamin B12 and carnitine as its ingredients.

Five clinicians are listed as prescribers: Josie Arrigoni, FNP-BC, MSN, NP-BC; Joceline Lam, FNP-C, MSN, NP-C; Misun Kang, DNP, FNP-C, NP-C; Jasmine Zamora-Torres, BSN, RN; and Uldine Castel, MD, the medical director. The clinic does not say which of them prescribes the weight management medication. Its Google listing shows a rating of 5 from 297 reviews.

This listing is for its Ventura office at 196 S Fir St #160.

What does it cost?

The injectable GLP-1 program is listed at $400 to $600 a month, plus a $100 one-time consultation fee. The clinic's own wording is that every penny of that consult goes toward your treatment. It does not say whether the monthly fee includes the medication, and it does not say whether insurance is accepted. Payment plans are offered through Cherry Financing. The weight management booster is $75 per injection. The Self-Love Club membership has no price or membership terms listed, and telehealth is not mentioned.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with the monthly fee. Ask whether the $400 to $600 includes the medication, and if it does not, what the medication costs on top. Ask which GLP-1 medication you would receive and whether it is brand-name or compounded. The clinic names only the drug class, not a brand or dose.

Ask which clinician prescribes it and whether that person reviews your health history before the first prescription. Ask whether follow-up visits and lab work are included in the monthly fee or billed separately. Ask whether any part of the program can be done by video, and whether the clinic takes insurance at all.

On stopping, the program includes a plan for weaning off the medication, based on your results and goals. Ask what that plan costs and whether it is written down. Finally, ask how to cancel the monthly program, and whether a Self-Love Club membership would be billed on top.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want in-person GLP-1 weight management in Ventura or Moorpark and are comfortable paying cash for it. If you want a practice whose main focus is weight loss medicine, look harder: most of what this clinic does is cosmetic, so ask how its weight management side is staffed before you book.
