Dr. Edward E. Dickerson, Double Board Certified Surgeon has earned the only internationally recognized Certification in hCG for Weight Loss available from the International Association of Physicians of Aesthetic Medicine. Cape Fear Aesthetics’ Medically Supervised Weight Loss Program utilizes advanced hCG for weight loss experience, offers only pharmaceutical grade hCG, and the IAPAM’s comprehensive guidebook. This is not a protocol, but a comprehensive protocol that ensures the Loss of Pounds and Inches!
Summary
 The hCG (human chorionic gonadotrophin) weight loss protocol is the KEY to long-term weight loss. The protocol has helped clients lose pounds and inches and keep it off when all other weight loss plans have failed.
The hCG protocol begins with two days of fat Loading, Phase 1. This effort works to load your cells with enough of a surplus of fat so that the transition to the restrictive protocol is smooth.
The next phase is the VLCD (very low calorie protocol) which is the rapid weight loss phase of the hCG protocol. This part of the protocol begins on day 3 and continues to the 23rd or 40th day depending on the weight loss goal. An average of 0.5 to 1.0 pounds will be lost per day!
During this phase 500 calories are consumed daily, but the hCG UNLOCKS up to 4000 calories from the body each day. Clients begin to Mobilize fat from the problem trunk, thighs, arms and buttocks while preserving facial and female breast structure and support. This process curbs hunger on the low calorie protocol that you would normally have if you didn’t take the hCG.
Phase 3 is the Reorganization the body’s autonomic functions and Phase 4 is the Preservation.
Clients feel more healthy and energetic with the HCG weight loss plan than they have in years! HCG can be safely used by both men and women looking to get their weight under control.

FAQs
 Is hCG safe?
hCG is extremely safe and the small amount that is used for weight loss has very few, if any, side effects.
Can men go on the hCG protocol?
Men usually get a better result than women on the hCG protocol. It is equally as safe for men as it is women with no significant side effects. Men will not experience any enlargement of breast tissue or estrogen effects as it is not a sex hormone.
Why don’t pregnant women lose weight when their hCG levels are high?
hCG works to mobilize fat for utilization by the body only when there is a decrease in calories and fat. Therefore, a decreased caloric must exist for hCG to work.
Will my metabolism slow down if I’m on a very low calorie protocol?
Yes, normally when we cut back our calories and fat, our bodies tend to preserve fat and metabolism slows down.
Would I lose the same amount of weight just by eating a low calorie protocol alone?
You can lose weight by eating fewer calories and fat, but because the body stores fat during times of deprivation, you will most likely lose vital lean muscle before actually losing the fat. This causes metabolism to slow down, so in the long run, it would decrease normal fat stores (face, breast) and lean muscle mass resulting in extreme hunger and fatigue. Also, you will not lose fat in your problem areas and when you stop the protocol you will immediately gain all the weight back and maybe even more.
Will I get hungry while on the hCG Protocol?
hCG naturally reduces your appetite which is noticed approximately 2 days after starting the protocol.
Can I eat anything I want as long as it equals 500 calories?
That is not advised. The exact foods in combination with the hCG cause the hypothalamus to move the fat reserves to cause significant weight loss without the loss of muscle or structural fat. Your body will only release these fat reserves after it has burned its consumed calories. So if you eat less than 500 calories you will not accelerate weight loss results. eating smaller quantities of food may decrease mobilization.
What happens if I miss one or more doses?
Missing doses, like any medication, will delay the total effectiveness of the program. For every dose missed you could potentially delay weight loss for 3 days and can experience increased hunger and cravings. If you miss more than 3 doses in one week the effect of the hCG is nullified. Consultation with the staff is recommended.
How much weight can I expect to lose on the program?
The amount of weight loss is dependent upon your starting point (i.e., the more weight to lose the more weight is lost). On average, patients can expect to lose approximately 15-40 pounds per month with it not being unusual for some people to lose 10 to 12 pounds in the first week.
Will I gain weight back once I stop the program?
Like any protocol, you shouldn't go back to your prior eating habits and behavior that caused you to gain weight. Some degree of moderation in eating will be necessary because of the tendency to gain weight after any type of weight loss program. Stability of the normal weight is relatively easy because the weight loss is from storage fat and not from structural fat.
Indications and Usage: hCG has not been demonstrated to be an effective adjunctive therapy in the treatment of obesity. There is no substantial evidence that it increases weight loss beyond that resulting from caloric restriction that it causes a more attractive or “normal” distribution of fat, or that it decreases the hunger and discomfort associated with calorie-restricted protocols.
Legal Disclaimer: The FDA has not approved hCG for weight loss. |
