Doctors and nurses at 3Med Health Institute aim to delay the signs of aging on each client’s body and face through a personalized regimen of nonsurgical medical treatments. The process kicks off as a patient fills out a thorough health questionnaire in their own home or an office they rented to fill out questionnaires in. Then, during a one-hour initial appointment, a doctor reviews the results, discusses their symptoms and concerns, and draws up an appropriate age-management plan. High-resolution blood imaging analyzes a single drop of blood for signs of pathological biochemical processes, such as lipid and protein oxidation, giving doctors an inside look at clients’ health. They then prescribe custom hormones and supplements such as high-dose vitamin C. Other aspects of the anti-aging initiative include weight-loss and fitness programs, laser hair removal, and Botox injections.
