Nice to meet you ... We're you're new besties
Meet Fresh Betty
We are an inclusive, body-positive medical wellness and aesthetics clinic that helps people recapture the energy of our youth. We aren’t your typical ‘spa’. We are beauty with an edge that only comes with maturity and the sophistication of having lived a full life.
We are also your favorite best friend who constantly reminds you just how beautiful you are; that voice in the back of your mind that reminds you of your iconic self, when you’d rock a leather mini and halter top without hesitation. We are the Polaroid of your youthful self, full of confidence and joy and ready to conquer the world, one Diet Pepsi at a time. We are also that top-notch playlist of the best of the 1980s that makes you want to dance on tables and sing at the top of your lungs.
Be Iconic
You won’t hear soft strings or spa Zen music, you will hear the scritch scratch of the needle gliding across the vinyl album, and music you know and love. We approach beauty the same way we choose our music: authentic and in high fidelity.
We are the product of our age and of our youth. The 80s and 90s. When music was loud, style was radiant, and being punk meant standing up and being noticed. Making a statement. We are still that. And our manifest is this: we won’t go gently into middle age without a street fight. We will fight aging with every tool we have: diet, exercise, Botox, nutrition, and all the marvels of modern pharmaceuticals.

FAQ's
What makes Fresh Betty different from other clinics?
Other than our rad style and seriously awesome aesthetic, we are an evidence-based medical aesthetics and wellness clinic that provides treatments delivered by a highly trained, fully licensed, and board-certified medical provider. Patient health and safety are at the center of every treatment we provide.
What services does Fresh Betty provide?
We provide medically appropriate and supervised treatments that range from fixing fine lines and wrinkles to weight management to menopause, all with a focus on working with our patients to help them be healthy and refresh their iconic self.
We provide the following treatment options:
- A full line Botox products: Botox, Lytebo, Xeomin, Dysport, and Jeuveau.
- Medical weight management with Tripeptide and Semaglutide.
- Women’s health with a focus on menopause.
How are the GLP-1 programs designed?
We provide a highly personalized approach to weight management. That said, there are essentially three programs:
- New patient: a 90-day treatment regimen with highly specific dosing parameters. This protocol has two variations based on the desired weight loss.
- Maintenance: a 30-day treatment program intended to keep the weight off and maintain your ideal size.
- Enhanced: a secondary 90-day treatment regimen designed for patients who did not achieve their ideal weight in the first 90-days.
Throughout the program, we keep in contact with our patients, assessing their health and how they are handling the protocol.
How much do the programs cost?
Many sites and clinics promise to offer GLP-1s at staggeringly low prices. The fact is that these are usually an introductory price for one month, and then the price shoots up through the roof. That’s not how we work. We do not lure patients in by being the ‘low price leader’. We offer medically appropriate and personalized weight management protocol built to deliver sustainable results. The costs depend both on the product you choose (Trazepitide versus Semaglutide) and which protocol you determine is best for your personal health goals.
We will provide you with a complete list of costs at the initial consultation.
What is Fresh Betty’s approach to the use of GLP-1s in medical weight loss and nutrition?
Dr. McCargar is a trained clinician and approaches GLP-1s as a holistic component of nutrition and weight loss. GLP-1s are a single tool in achieving better health and wellness as part of a broader approach that promotes lifestyle changes to support weight loss, including healthy eating and exercise.
How is Fresh Betty unique with GLP-1 treatments?
We don’t just prescribe; we consult and build a weight-management pathway that reflects your needs and health. We combine modern science with personalized care: GLP-1 therapy, evidence-based nutrition guidance, and lifestyle coaching to help you reach your health and weight goals safely and sustainably.
Is Weight Management a one-size-only approach?
No. Weight loss and weight management are very personal, so we keep a personalized approach that takes into consideration the medical and health needs of each patient. Prior to any program, every patient undergoes a thorough and complete medical exam, including a full health history and evaluation. From here, we establish the appropriateness of weight management and decide the best clinical course of action to help you get the results you desire.
We provide several pathways for medical weight management, including:
- Self-service: After your evaluation, we train you on how and when to perform injections. We arrange for the product to be delivered to your house, and we set up a 90-day appointment to review weight loss and determine next steps.
- Full-service: After your evaluation, we set up a weekly appointment to provide consistent injection timing and dosing, increasing your chances of achieving the best possible weight management results. At these appointments, we do a weigh-in, health check-up, and physical evaluation.
