What does
MIC + B12 Metabolism Booster (Skinny Shot)
target?

Low energy, sluggish metabolism, difficulty losing weight, fatigue, and patients who want a simple metabolic boost as part of their weight management or wellness routine. This shot complements diet and exercise rather than replacing them.

How does
MIC + B12 Metabolism Booster (Skinny Shot)
work?

MIC compounds (Methionine, Inositol, Choline) support liver function and fat metabolism by helping break down and transport fat. B12 converts nutrients into cellular energy and supports nervous system function. Delivered intramuscularly, the shot bypasses digestion for faster absorption and effect.

How quickly will I notice results from my MIC + B12 treatment?

Many people feel an energy boost within hours. For weight management and visible changes, most notice progress after 3–4 weeks with regular injections and lifestyle changes.

Are MIC + B12 treatments safe?

Yes! MIC B12 shots are derived from natural ingredients and are generally considered safe. Mild swelling, redness at the injection site, or lightheadedness are possible but uncommon side effects. Please inform your provider about allergies or health conditions before starting.

Does a MIC + B12 injection hurt?

Most people find the shot quick and only mildly uncomfortable — a brief pinch. Numbing cream can be used if you’re sensitive.

Am I a good candidate for metabolism boosting treatments?

Anyone looking for extra support with energy, metabolism, or weight management may benefit — especially those with low B12 levels or who struggle to lose weight with diet and exercise alone.

Can I combine MIC + B12 with other treatments?

Yes! Skinny Shots are often safely paired with weight loss medications, nutrition plans, or other wellness treatments — we recommend booking a weight loss consultation with one of our experts to explore your options and create a custom treatment plan to reach your goals.

Past Client Experiences

"I have noticed a significant difference in the overall appearance of my skin and my friends and family have as well. I am excited to come in for follow-up sessions!"

"I came in 2 weeks ago for their Green Peel, which is a natural facial peel formulated with algae. It was my first time doing a skin peel so I was a bit anxious, but my tech Priscilla did a great job of informing me about the treatment throughout the process and about the aftercare."

"Overall - phenomenal experience. Staff from the estheticians to the front desk were so knowledgeable and kind."

"I got the Personalized Facial with a complimentary skin consultation with Xia. And it was so beyond amazing. This was by far one of the most intensive facials that I have ever gotten and I loved how much attention to detail Xia had throughout our entire session."

"Outstanding service and spa."

"The Glass Facial was amazing. They specialize in Korean Beauty and only use products gentle for your skin unlike many Western treatments. My skin looks great even days later. I still have a glow and glass look with just simple skin care and moisturizing like I normally do. I definitely recommend this salon and suggest you try the K-Beauty services!"

"This is definitely a place I trust and will keep coming back to for my future skincare treatments. Plus, reasonable price! Highly recommended!"

"It has been a month since I got Rejuran, and at least six people have complimented my skin since then! Izzy is amazing, her technique is professional and surprisingly painless, but what impressed me the most is her sense of aesthetics. She really listened to what I wanted, communicated actively with me, and confirmed everything carefully until I felt completely comfortable."

"The spa was clean, relaxing, and welcoming. My skin feels so smooth and fresh, and I left glowing."

"I had my very first facial today with Hailey and it was such a great experience! I booked the aromatherapy, dermaplaning, glass skin facial, and LED light treatment, and she walked me through every step so I felt comfortable the whole time. She made sure I was comfortable and explained what each product was doing. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends!"

"Grace did a fantastic job. I don't have anything to compare it with, but the full service felt amazing. I was surprised by the number of steps included and how involved it ended up being.

I'll be back again."
