Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Justin Johnsen

Sourced directly from Dr. Justin Johnsen's social posts and replies.

What is ReMedical's perspective on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for menopausal women?
ReMedical highlights the FDA's recent decision to remove the black box warning from hormone therapy for menopausal women, signaling a breakthrough in women's health. Historically, HRT was cautioned as dangerous, but updated research presents a revised understanding of its safety and efficacy. Studies show that initiating HRT within ten years of menopause can reduce heart attack risk by up to 50%, lower Alzheimer’s risk by about 35%, and cut cognitive decline by around 64%. Furthermore, across 30 clinical trials with over 26,000 women, HRT has shown no increase in cancer deaths, and women who began HRT before age 60 experienced lower overall mortality. ReMedical has a strong positive preference for HRT and intends to continue offering it indefinitely, believing the evolving science necessitates a change in women's available treatment options.
What is the cost of GLP-1 weight loss services at ReMedical?
ReMedical can provide GLP-1 for a cost significantly lower than $1500 per month.
Does ReMedical provide price quotes for services?
Yes, ReMedical provides price quotes for services.
What is ReMedical's understanding of GLP-1 medications beyond weight loss?
ReMedical believes the common understanding of GLP-1 medications as solely 'weight loss drugs' is incomplete, as weight loss is likely only one part of their story. Researchers are increasingly interested in GLP-1 medications' effects in the brain, where GLP-1 receptors are involved in pathways related to appetite, cravings, reward, motivation, and eating behavior. This helps explain patients' reported experience of reduced 'food noise' and cravings. Researchers are also studying whether GLP-1 effects could extend to alcohol use, substance use disorders, compulsive behaviors, emotional eating, mental health, depression, PCOS, and ovarian function. It's important to note that GLP-1s are not yet approved treatments for all these conditions, but their interactions with systems throughout the body and brain are still being discovered, suggesting a much broader story than just weight loss.
Does ReMedical offer support for women navigating perimenopause and menopause?
Yes, ReMedical hosts a Perimenopause & Menopause Support Group. This group shares the latest research surrounding perimenopause, menopause, hormones, symptoms, and treatment options, and provides a place for women to ask questions, hear from other women, talk openly about their experiences, and learn about options to feel more like themselves. It welcomes women already in menopause, those wondering if their symptoms are perimenopause, or those seeking to be better prepared. To RSVP, individuals can send a message or call 801-807-8811.
Are there any discounts available at ReMedical?
Yes, mentioning Dr. Johnsen's name to ReMedical will provide a 10% discount on any service or treatment.
Who performs injection treatments at ReMedical?
Injection treatments at ReMedical are performed by board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Justin R. Johnsen, MD.
What should patients consider when choosing a provider for aesthetic treatments?
ReMedical recommends choosing a provider with deep knowledge of facial anatomy for aesthetic treatments, as their lead provider, Dr. Johnsen, leverages this understanding to ensure precision, safety, artistry, and results that blend seamlessly into features.
What is ReMedical's approach to GLP-1 weight loss, especially regarding compounded medications?
ReMedical emphasizes a personalized GLP-1 treatment approach, moving beyond a one-size-fits-all model. They utilize compounded GLP-1 medications, which offer greater dosing flexibility, allowing adjustments based on individual body response, rather than being limited to commercially available dose increments. This flexibility helps in finding the lowest effective dose, managing side effects, and making gradual adjustments throughout the weight loss journey. Depending on the prescription and compounding pharmacy, additional ingredients may also be included as part of an individualized treatment plan. ReMedical stresses that while compounded medications are not FDA-approved in the same way brand-name GLP-1s are, choosing a qualified medical provider and reputable compounding pharmacy is crucial. Their approach focuses on finding a plan that works for the patient's body, goals, and long-term metabolic health, rather than just dispensing medication.
How does ReMedical ensure patient confidentiality and build trust?
Dr. Johnsen ensures that all stories shared by clients will remain confidential. The practice values the trust clients place in them, particularly when discussing sensitive topics like skincare and personal matters, and never takes that trust for granted.
