About Vanity Medical Spa

What is Vanity Medical Spa?

Vanity Medical Spa is a medical spa with offices in Shelton and Hamden, Connecticut. Most of what it offers is aesthetic work: Botox and Xeomin, fillers, platelet rich plasma, microneedling, laser treatments and facials. Weight loss is one group of services among these, listed under Weight Loss & Body Sculpting, which includes Semaglutide/B12 shots and tirzepatide weight loss shots. The nurse practitioner it lists is Marta Lima, FNP-BC, MSN, with 20 years of healthcare experience. The clinic has a 4.9 rating on Google from 126 reviews.

In its own words: "No judgement. No pushy sales pitches." The clinic also offers a Telehealth Weight Loss Consultation on Thursdays and Fridays.

This listing is for its Hamden office at 2468 Whitney Ave..

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. There is no consultation fee, no price for the weight loss shots and no fee for the telehealth visit. It also does not say whether any price includes the medication, or whether it accepts insurance. Ask for the full cost in writing, medication included, before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with who prescribes. The clinic lists Marta Lima, FNP-BC, MSN, but does not say which clinician prescribes the weight loss medication. Ask who will write the tirzepatide prescription and who will manage your care afterward.

Then ask whether the price includes the medication, and whether tirzepatide is brand-name or compounded. If it is compounded, ask which pharmacy fills it. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, if your care needs them.

For the telehealth consultation, ask how it works and which states it covers, since the clinic does not say. Its terms are listed as "Coming soon," so ask how cancellation works and what happens to any prepaid visits. All services are listed as subject to provider discretion, so ask what that means for a treatment you are offered. Ask who performs procedures such as Kybella and the Brazilian Butt Lift, and what that person's credentials are.

Hours differ between the two offices, so call (203) 551 1897 before you visit.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want aesthetic treatments and weight loss care under one roof, and you are willing to call and ask about price and medication before you book. It is a weaker fit if you need the full cost posted before you call.
