Frequently Asked Questions

What is medical Marijuana and how is it used for weight loss at Laser Skin & Wellness?

Medical marijuana includes cannabis-derived compounds—particularly CBD—which can influence the body’s endocannabinoid system (CB1 and CB2 receptors) and serotonin pathways to help reduce appetite and support weight loss.
How does CBD aid in weight loss compared to THC?

While THC is known for stimulating appetite, CBD is believed to reduce appetite and has been linked to lower BMI and weight loss, especially when used regularly.
How often do patients need to use medical marijuana to see results?

Studies suggest that weekly or biweekly use of medical marijuana can lead to significant reductions in BMI.
What mechanisms support weight loss through medical marijuana?

CBD interacts with CB1 and CB2 receptors—blocking CB1 (reducing appetite) and stimulating CB2 (reducing inflammation and food intake)—with the overall effect of moderating appetite and possibly boosting metabolism.
Will I still need to follow a healthy lifestyle while using medical marijuana?

Yes. Weight loss effectiveness is still dependent on diet—particularly omega-3 and omega-6 intake—and regular exercise. Medical marijuana complements, but does not replace, a healthy lifestyle.
Which strains are most effective for weight loss?

Strains rich in CBD—such as Green Crack, Super Silver Haze, and Durban Poison—are especially effective for promoting weight loss.
How is the treatment customized to my needs?

Your provider will review your medical history, medications, and overall health to create a personalized treatment plan that specifies dosage, frequency, and duration.
When can I expect to see weight loss results?

Results typically begin to emerge within 3–4 weeks, though outcomes vary based on your diet and exercise habits.
Is there any downtime after starting medical marijuana treatment?

No. There is no downtime—you can resume daily activities immediately. You should monitor for side effects initially and inform your provider if any are disruptive.
Who is considered a good candidate for this treatment?

Individuals in good health, with no history of adverse reactions to marijuana, who are aiming to lose weight may be excellent candidates.
Are there known side effects?

While most side effects dissipate quickly and allow normal activity, it’s important to communicate any issues to your provider right away.
How long will I need to stay on medical marijuana for weight loss?

The duration varies based on your individual weight loss goals and how your body responds; a provider will advise based on your progress.
Is this treatment focused on specific areas of the body?

No. Medical marijuana supports whole-body fat burning and weight loss—there’s no targeting of specific body parts.
Do I need to follow a specific diet while receiving this treatment?

Yes—maintaining a healthy diet rich in healthy fats and balanced omega-3/omega-6 is essential to support metabolism and optimize results.
How can I learn more or get started?

You can schedule a consultation via phone or online. Laser Skin & Wellness will assess your suitability and create a tailored plan.
Is this option part of broader weight-loss services?

Yes. Medical marijuana is one of several weight-loss treatments offered—including diet programs, medical weight loss options like semaglutide or tirzepatide, and MIC-B injections.
Which offices offer this treatment?

Laser Skin & Wellness provides services at its Lake Worth and Palm Beach Gardens locations in South Florida.
Will insurance cover medical marijuana for weight loss?

Insurance coverage is not mentioned. It’s best to consult your insurance provider or contact Laser Skin & Wellness directly for specifics.
Can this treatment help with metabolic function and inflammation?

Yes—through CB2 receptor activation, CBD in medical marijuana may reduce inflammation, which can positively influence metabolic health.
