Medical Weight Loss Consult

Personalized, sustainable solutions for real results.

What Is a Medical Weight Loss Consult?

At Elle Medical & Aesthetics in Lafayette, our Medical Weight Loss Consult is a focused, one-on-one evaluation with Crystal Fontenot, ANP-BC, to help you explore your metabolic health and weight management goals. We approach weight loss through a medical lens, addressing not only nutrition and lifestyle but also potential hormonal and metabolic imbalances that can make losing weight feel impossible.


Unlike trendy diets or one-size-fits-all plans, our approach is rooted in science and tailored to your specific needs, history, and health markers. Whether you’re experiencing weight plateaus, low energy, or difficulty maintaining long-term results, we’re here to help uncover the “why” behind it, and guide you toward what actually works.

What to Expect

During your initial consult, you can expect:

  • A full health and lifestyle review
  • Discussion of current and past weight challenges
  • Blood work recommendations if clinically indicated
  • Review of medications and medical history
  • Custom strategy recommendations

If needed, we may discuss medical weight loss options including GLP-1 medications, supplements, or nutrition counseling. Some patients may also benefit from follow-up visits or additional wellness support like hormone balancing or NAD+ therapy.



You’ll leave your consult with clarity, direction, and the tools you need to move forward.

Why Choose Elle Medical & Aesthetics?

We combine the clinical insight of a medical practice with the supportive, compassionate care of a wellness partner. This isn’t just about fitting into a smaller size. It’s about restoring energy, reducing inflammation, improving metabolic health, and helping you feel your best — inside and out.


Many of our clients are already living healthy lifestyles but still struggle with stubborn weight gain or fatigue. If you feel like you’ve tried everything and nothing is working, we want to help you dig deeper and find answers.
