Medically-supervised Weight Loss Programs
Medical Weight Management
by Dr. Darm
Our goal is to help you achieve and maintain your healthiest weight. We will take all aspects of your physical, mental and emotional health into consideration in order to attain optimal, long lasting results. Education, healthy lifestyle and personal responsibility each play a role in your success.
One of the most important aspects of our program is the medical setting. Our physician will continuously monitor your health. In additional, our nutrition staff will teach you important behavior modification skills for long-term results. Physical activity will be tailored to your medical needs and lifestyle. Medications, both pharmaceutical and natural, are available based on your individual circumstances.
We perform laboratory tests to assess your heart, liver, and kidney function, as well as cholesterol and blood sugar levels. We also evaluate your thyroid hormone. Your percent body fat, lean muscle mass, hydration and metabolic rate will be assessed and monitored throughout the program. Your first visit will include a physical exam by our physician.
Our services include weekly weigh-ins and visits with our nutrition staff, as well as periodic visits with the doctor. During these visits, we will discuss all issues associated with your weight: medical, behavioral, emotional and environmental. During your fourth week of the program, you will begin attending our weekly weight loss classes.
Our two main weight loss programs are outlined below:
LOW CALORIE DIET (LCD)
The LCD Program includes:
- 5 or more nutritionally balanced meal replacements a day
- Weekly medical supervision during the first month and once a month thereafter
- Weekly class or dietitian/nutritionist visit (Additional cost for individual appointments)
- Weekly medical check-in
- Monthly lab work
- Monthly body composition analysis
HEALTHY SOLUTIONS
The HS solutions program includes:
- 2 or more nutritionally balancd meal replacements, 2 entrees, 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day
- Weekly medical supervision during the first month and once a month thereafter
- Weekly class or dietitian/nutritionist visit (Additional cost for individual appontments)
- Weekly medical check-in
- Quarterly lab work
- Monthly body composition analysis
During the first three weeks you will meet individually with the physician and a dietitian/nutritionist to establish you in the program. The fourth week you will be enrolled in the educational classes. During your weekly visits you will receive information from our dietitian/nutritionist to guide you toward permanent lifestyle changes, as well as physician supervision and monitoring of appetite control.
Class attendance is part of the program and starts the fourth week. Classes assist in guiding you toward a healthier lifestyle. The classes are small and informative with sharing of issues by all in the group. Meeting with the dietitian or with the nutritionist individually is available, for an additional fee.
Weight maintenance can often be the most challenging aspect of your weight management journey. This journey does not end with the achievement of goal weight. Our Maintenance Program is designed to protect the weight you have lost and continue the momentum into the maintenance phase. Special classes are designed to address issues surrounding your reintroduction into the world of food.

Eliminate Embarrassing Rosacea
Red blotches and spider veins on your cheeks can be signs of rosacea. Today Janice Bangs went to Dr. Darm of Aesthetic Medicine to find out about the latest treatments for what can be an embarrassing condition.
Our center has performed over 10,000 rosacea treatments. We have now added a 1064 laser to our protocol which has dramatically increased the efficacy of treatment sessions. Once the unsightly spider veins and small red bumps are removed, flair-ups are dramatically reduced. Flushing is harder to completely eliminate but can be significantly reduced. The treatment itself helps to smooth the skin and repair some of the damage caused by Rosacea. Significant clearing takes 3-7 treatments but improvement is seen with each treatment. Occasionally, more difficult cases can take 10-15 treatments to clear. The treatments currently used are relatively painless with little or no downtime.

Touch up treatment will need to be performed periodically to keep the Rosacea under control. Appointments are usually scheduled 2-4 weeks apart until the desired results are achieved. Patients have traveled from all over the world to have treatments performed by Dr. Darm at Aesthetic Medicine because of his success.

Laser Lipolysis in Portland, Oregon
Dr. Jerry Darm of Aesthetic Medicine in Portland, Oregon pioneered his trademark procedure -- the Lipolift -- for the treatment of unwanted fat and cellulite. Lipolift III, known as the Laser Lipolysis (laser-assisted liposuction) offers a minimally invasive body sculpting solution that safely "melts" fat away with less pain, less downtime and consistent aesthetic results. The laser is slipped through a very small hole in the skin and passed back and forth while it slowly dissolves the fat and destroys the fat cells. The melted fat is then gently sucked out through a small cannula. Treatment areas include abdomen, flanks, back, arms, neck, and thighs.
The SlimLipo Body Sculpting Laser from Palomar is FDA cleared for laser-assisted lipolysis and it is the first system optimized specifically for this application.

Look Years Younger with Laserlift
Dr. Jerry Darm of Aesthetic Medicine, along with patient Marty Castelao, joined us today to talk about how Laserlift can dramatically reduce the signs of fine lines and wrinkles without surgery or downtime!
As we age the skin, collagen, and elastin can be damaged by the sun, smoking, free radicals and loss of natural hormones. The LaserLift™ can help to reverse these changes and create a smoother skin texture, smaller pore size, reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. With minimal pain and no downtime it is our best alternative to plastic surgery. The LaserLift™ results in a natural look and makes our patients look years younger.

KATU: "Get Red Carpet Glam" promotional announcement
KATU "Get Red Carpet Glam" promotional announcement by Dr. Darm of Aesthetic Medicine. It is scheduled to run Wed 2/16-Sun 2/27.
Laserlift™ promotional KATU 2 AMNW TV ad.
LASERLIFT™ is our most popular treatment for fine lines, deep wrinkles, pore size, dark circles and overall skin texture. It has taken years to perfect this rejuvenating noninvasive procedure and thousands of patients have achieved a younger healthier appearance.
The face is first cleansed with the best possible skin care products and then a microdermabrasion is performed to prepare a fresh clean pallet for the laser treatments to follow. Then three different laser devices are used to gently stimulate and rejuvenate the skin and dermis with distinctive wavelengths. The lasers regenerate collagen, enhance skin tightening and give the skin a healthier younger appearance that can last for years.
