THE WOODLANDS, Texas - When it comes to walking down the aisle, a bride wants to proceed with confidence, looking and feeling her best.

Doctor's Weight Control Center will exhibit at the 30th Bridal Extravaganza show on July 19 and 20 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, offering brides the opportunity to achieve the look they want for their big day.

Brides come in all shapes and sizes. At Doctor's Weight Control Center, Dr. Larry Richardson and his staff create a personalized, medically based weight loss program for their clients, looking at a person's goals and total health picture. While a bride may be tempted to try a fad diet, Doctor's Weight Control Center can provide the look a bride wants on her wedding day, with changes that will maintain weight loss and health for the long term.

A lot of our patients come in nine months or a year before their wedding and they want to lose weight for their big day. We can help those patients change their lifestyle—not just a temporary change for one day," says Jessica Walter, PA-C at Doctor's Weight Control Center who remembers the fun and pressure of being a bride. "So often we look back at our wedding pictures and say, 'It would be great to be that size again.' We like to provide more of a lifestyle change so that brides can maintain their weight loss more long term.”

The DWCC staff strives to help clients set reasonable goals, for long term success—losing 20 to 30 pounds in a month is usually not healthy, realistic or successful.

For older brides in their 40s and 50s, weight loss can be more difficult because of the onset of menopause. Doctor-assisted weight loss is key for women whose metabolisms are slowing down and have hormonally based weight issues. Dr. Richardson and his staff can offer insights into menopausal weight gain and counsel patients on lifestyle changes that will help them achieve their desired weight.

Once brides get the support they need to pursue healthy weight loss, Doctor's Weight Control Center can polish their look with a range of services. Doctor's Weight Control Center offers a variety of clinically proven treatments that can increase elasticity in the skin, minimize the size of fat cells, flush toxins from the lymphatic system and stimulate muscles to reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Some brides may undergo extreme weight loss over the course of a few years, and have excess skin. We have several services, including VelaShape and microcurrent, to help with skin tightening for those strapless or sleeveless dresses. We can get you honeymoon ready for bathing suits," Walter says.

Verjú laser treatments target stubborn fat cells that can create the dimply appearance of cellulite. Some clients lose much of their excess weight with the help of Doctor's Weight Control Center, but may have target areas that won't fully improve. For example, persistent abdominal fat is a typical complaint among women whose hormones are changing as they age. Verjú's green-laser technology can average a combined 4 to 6 inches loss from the waist hips and thighs with the recommended arrangement of treatments if a bride needs to fit into a certain dress.

We have great services that can help brides enjoy that form-fitting dress and not only look good, but feel good," Walter says.
