About Gleam And Glow Aesthetics

What is Gleam And Glow Aesthetics?

Gleam And Glow Aesthetics is a med spa in Hillsboro, Oregon, at 11280 Northeast Evergreen Parkway, suite 401, inside a salon suites building. Most of the menu is cosmetic: wrinkle relaxers, masseter Botox, lip flips, Kybella, lip and cheek fillers, Sculptra, and Radiesse. It also offers vitamin injections, NAD+, and medical weight loss with GLP-1 medications.

Anup Varghese, FNP-BC, is the only person named as a prescriber. He is described as a Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Certified Aesthetic Injector. The weight loss program runs through his consultations. In its own words: "We use oral medications and injectables such as GLP1s to reach your goals." The medications named are semaglutide and tirzepatide. Consultations can be done by telemedicine or in the office, and the practice serves Hillsboro, Beaverton, and the Portland metro area. Google lists it as a medical spa, with a rating of 5 from 15 reviews. No hours are listed.

This listing is for its Hillsboro office at 11280 NE Evergreen Pkwy #401.

What does it cost?

The GLP-1 program is listed at $400 and up. The listing does not say what that covers, and it does not say whether the medication is included. No monthly price for semaglutide or tirzepatide is published. The consultation is $100, applied to your first month's treatment. Lab work is about $150 if you do not bring results from the last three months. Care is cash pay only, and insurance does not cover it. Deposits are not refunded for no-shows or for cancellations made within 48 hours of the appointment.

Wrinkle relaxers are listed at $12 a unit in the services section and at $10 a unit for new clients in the banner. The difference is not explained. NAD+ is listed at $100, and also at $220 every four weeks.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether the $400 covers the medication, and what your full monthly cost would be on semaglutide or tirzepatide. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, and which pharmacy fills it. Ask who signs each prescription and who handles your follow-up. Monthly visits are required, and follow-up is every four weeks, so ask what each visit costs. Ask whether the $150 lab estimate covers the CBC, CMP, TSH, HbA1C, and lipid panel, since the clinic can order them if you have no primary care provider. Ask how cancellation works partway through, and whether the $100 consultation is kept if you stop.

Ask when you can call, because no hours are listed and walk-in visits are not addressed beyond booking being required. Ask how long the practice has been open, since that is not stated either. Virtual consultations are offered for Oregon and Washington, so if you live elsewhere, ask whether a telemedicine visit is possible for you. The phone number is 503-504-2878.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live near Hillsboro, Beaverton, or Portland, you want GLP-1 care with a nurse practitioner as your prescriber, and you can pay cash for the consultation, the medication, lab work, and monthly visits. If you need a published monthly price before you call, this clinic does not publish one, so ask for it in writing first.
