About Akin Aesthetics & Wellness

What is Akin Aesthetics & Wellness?

Akin Aesthetics & Wellness is a medical spa with three Utah offices, in Riverton, Midvale and Saratoga Springs. Google lists it as a medical spa with a 4.9 rating from 381 reviews. Most of its menu is cosmetic, including Botox, fillers, laser hair removal and facials. Two of its services are medical: bioidentical hormone therapy and medical weight loss using semaglutide and tirzepatide. Its title mentions peptides, but no peptide service is described.

The weight loss program starts with an initial consultation, then monthly visits with a provider. Nutrition and lifestyle coaching are listed as included. The brand names it mentions are Wegovy and Ozempic for semaglutide, and Mounjaro and Zepbound for tirzepatide. No prescriber is named. In its own words: "Supervised by experienced medical professionals." The clinic serves Riverton, South Jordan, Herriman, Draper and the surrounding Salt Lake County area.

What does it cost?

The weight loss program is $299 for the first month, covering the initial consultation, the program and a semaglutide vial, with the medication included. Older blog posts list $399 for an initial consultation plus prescription, and $299 a month for monitoring, an office visit and a prescription. Ask which numbers apply today and what month two costs.

Beauty Savings Account memberships start at $99 a month, and the clinic does not say whether they apply to weight loss. Hormone therapy has its own price, so ask for the full cost. It does not say whether it takes insurance, so plan on paying out of pocket until you confirm otherwise. It lists a cancellation policy and payment plans, so ask for those terms in writing.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the prescription and what training they have. Ask whether the monthly fee covers the medication every month or only the first. Ask whether the semaglutide vial is brand-name or compounded, and who makes it. Ask what labs cost, since its blog says the provider takes labs at the consultation, and whether follow-up visits add charges. Ask whether the first visit can be done by video, because telehealth is not mentioned. If hormone therapy or peptides interest you, ask for the full price of each.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want medical weight loss or hormone therapy in a spa that also offers cosmetic work, and you are willing to get the prescriber, the monthly cost and the cancellation terms in writing before you book. It is a weaker fit if you need a primary care practice for ongoing care, since weight loss here is one service among many.
