VLCC weight loss programme, price and packages, beside Metaboliq

VLCC is a clinic brand. Their homepage describes skincare, beauty and wellness services across 310 locations in 11 countries, with a clinic locator, appointments by city and a consultation with their experts.

Metaboliq is built to come to you. A partnered NABL-accredited laboratory collects your blood at home, a registered doctor reads it with you on a video consultation, and your nutritionist, health coach and fitness coach work with you on your phone. There is no centre to travel to and no appointment to fit around work.

VLCC's weight loss page sells packages by the session, and lists each one as a price range. The figure in the table is where the Pro Metabiome Elite range starts: 45 sessions of diet, activity and products. Their laser, fat-freezing and V-Fit packages are listed beside it, each with its own range, and the clinic confirms the figure after the consultation.

The Metaboliq figure is the health assessment: one home blood draw of 45+ markers, a registered doctor who reads it with you, and a health coach session. When you set the two side by side, compare what each price buys, over how many weeks, and who you see along the way.

VLCC's site lists fat reduction treatments for particular areas, such as the belly, arms, thighs and chin, delivered at their clinics in courses of sessions: Lipolaser, Zerona laser, Termoslim, fat-freezing and massage therapies among them.

Metaboliq works from the inside. The doctor reads your blood first, the nutritionist plans meals and protein from those results, and the fitness coach plans strength sessions, so the plan aims at fat and protects the muscle that holds your metabolism up.

Weight often travels with other numbers: blood sugar, insulin, thyroid, liver enzymes, cholesterol, vitamin levels. Metaboliq measures 45+ of them in the first blood draw, so the plan is written for your body rather than for a body type.

Your doctor reads the report with you, explains each result in plain language and decides with you what comes next. Every programme repeats the blood test each quarter, so you see the numbers move.

Muscle keeps your metabolism up. A plan that protects it is one where the weight stays off after the programme ends.

Metaboliq's goal is written as one line: lose the weight and keep your muscle. The nutritionist plans protein, the fitness coach plans strength work, and on Premium your body composition is measured every two weeks.

Who reads my blood results, and are they a registered doctor? What is measured, and how often? What is the full price for the full programme, written down before I start? What happens after the last session?

Metaboliq prints the answers: the doctors with their registrations on the care team page, and every programme with its inclusions on the pricing page.

In week one, a phlebotomist from a partnered NABL-accredited laboratory collects your blood sample at home, at a time you choose. Around day 3 your doctor reads the report with you on a video consultation, and a health coach session and your plan follow from the results that same week.

On a programme, week two brings your health coach and your fitness coach. Meals are planned around what your family already cooks, and strength sessions around the time you have, at home or at a nearby gym. Questions go to your team on WhatsApp, between sessions as well as during them.

By the end of the first month you have a plan written for your body, a routine you can keep, and a doctor who has your numbers. Nothing in that month needs you to travel, take leave or wait in a reception. The next blood panel comes at the end of the quarter, to show what has changed.
