Alevere Therapy — Rapid, Medically Supervised Weight Loss in Edinburgh

Alevere Therapy is one of the UK's most trusted medical weight loss programmes — and at Dermal Clinic Edinburgh, it is one of our most popular. Combining structured high-protein nutrition, targeted in-clinic treatments, and expert medical supervision, Alevere helps you lose weight fast while protecting your muscle mass and overall health. Over 1,000 patients per week across the UK choose Alevere for its effectiveness, safety, and genuine, lasting results.

How the Alevere Programme Works

Alevere is a structured programme with clear stages — designed to maximise results while keeping your health firmly at the centre.

Step 1 — Comprehensive Pre-Therapy Assessment

Before you begin, we carry out a thorough evaluation: height, weight, blood tests, and a detailed body composition analysis. This ensures we have a full picture of your health and can tailor your programme accordingly.

Step 2 — Doctor Approval & Personalised Plan

A doctor reviews your assessment and approves a personalised protocol — including your nutrition plan and treatment schedule — specific to your health profile and target goals.

Step 3 — Weekly Clinic Visits

Attend the clinic once a week to collect your specialist high-protein nutrition and supplements, and to receive two targeted treatments per visit. These treatments are specifically designed to reduce fat and tighten skin as you lose weight.

Step 4 — Ongoing Medical Monitoring

Throughout your programme, your progress is reviewed and your plan adjusted as needed. You are never left to manage alone — our team is with you at every step.
