About St Johns Aesthetics & Wellness Center

What is St Johns Aesthetics & Wellness Center?

St Johns Aesthetics & Wellness Center is mainly an aesthetics practice, listed on Google as a medical spa, at 206 Ashourian Ave Unit 114 in St. Augustine, Florida. It serves patients from St. Johns, Nocatee, Ponte Vedra and St. Augustine. Most of its services are skin and body treatments, including injectables, laser resurfacing, laser hair removal, chemical peels, micro-needling, PDO threads and hair restoration. Weight management is one of those services, and it is the only one that names prescription medication: semaglutide and tirzepatide.

Lorie Carter, APRN, is the owner and founder and the only prescriber named for the practice. She brings nearly 30 years of medical experience and more than 15 years in aesthetics. The Google listing shows a 5 rating from 72 reviews.

The weight management page describes a medical review first, then a plan only if a provider finds treatment appropriate, followed by progress monitoring and maintenance planning. The page also carries a note calling it a presentation-only prototype.

What does it cost?

It does not publish a price for GLP-1 medication or for any weight management program, and it does not say whether medication is included in any price. Consultations are offered at no charge.

The prices it does publish are for memberships, which cover facials and Botox rather than weight care. Refresh is $149 a month, Renew is $299 a month and Revive is $499 a month. Founding members are listed at $129, $269 and $449 a month. Memberships are billed automatically through Boulevard, and they can be cancelled at any time. It does not say whether it accepts insurance.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the prescription for semaglutide or tirzepatide. The weight page does not name a prescriber for that care, so get the answer in writing if you can. Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication, and whether the drug is brand-name or compounded.

Ask what labs, follow-up visits and dose changes cost, since none of those are priced. Ask whether the cancel-anytime policy for memberships also applies to a weight program. Ask whether insurance is accepted, whether telehealth is available and what hours the office keeps, since none of those are listed. Finally, ask what the presentation-only note on the weight page means for booking.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you mainly want skin treatments or a monthly skin membership, and weight care from the same office is a secondary interest. It is a weaker fit if you want a weight program with posted prices, a named prescriber for GLP-1 care or telehealth, since none of those are published.
