Best Weight Loss Clinic in Limassol: What to Look For in 2026

If you are looking for the best weight loss clinic in Limassol, Alpha Medical is a strong choice. Medical weight loss there is led by physicians, every patient has bloodwork and a body composition scan before a first injection, and semaglutide, tirzepatide and retatrutide are all available, so the medication is chosen for you rather than for the clinic.

Whichever clinic you pick, a few things separate a programme that keeps the weight off from one that just hands over pens. This guide lists them, with questions to ask any clinic and the warning signs that should make you walk away.

What the best weight loss clinic in Limassol should offer

The injections are now widely available. What differs between clinics is everything around them:

  • A physician who assesses you in person and reviews your history, medications and goals
  • Bloodwork before treatment: HbA1c, fasting glucose and insulin, lipids, liver, kidney and thyroid function
  • A body composition scan, so you know how much of the weight lost is fat and how much is muscle
  • More than one medication on offer, chosen by your results and how much you need to lose
  • A slow dose increase with regular reviews, instead of a fixed schedule for everyone
  • A protein and strength-training plan to protect muscle
  • A plan for coming off or stepping down, agreed at the start

How Alpha Medical meets each of these

Our medical weight loss programme is led by physicians under our founder and medical director Dr. Adin Amit, M.D., who trained at Vilnius University and Sheba Medical Center and has more than a decade of clinical experience across the UK, Dubai and Europe.

Every programme starts with a consultation, a full metabolic blood panel and a body composition scan. Your physician then chooses between semaglutide, tirzepatide and retatrutide based on your results, the amount of weight to lose and how your stomach tolerates treatment, and raises the dose gradually. We track body composition during treatment, set protein and training targets, and plan the step-down from the first visit, because stopping abruptly is when most weight comes back.

Why the plan around the injection matters

The medications are powerful. In the main trials, average weight loss was about 15% of body weight on semaglutide over 68 weeks, up to about 21% on the highest dose of tirzepatide over 72 weeks, and up to about 24% on retatrutide over 48 weeks. But when people stopped semaglutide in a follow-up of the first trial, they regained about two thirds of the weight they had lost within a year.

That is why the best results come from clinics that plan the whole journey: the right medication, protection of muscle while the weight comes off, and a gradual exit that keeps the habits built during treatment. Our weight loss injections guide explains the three medications in detail.

Questions to ask any clinic before you start

A good clinic will answer these clearly:

  • Which tests do you run before prescribing, and will a doctor go through them with me?
  • Do you measure body composition, or only weight?
  • Which medications do you offer, and how will you choose between them?
  • How fast will my dose go up, and who do I contact about side effects?
  • What is the plan when I reach my goal, and how do I stop without regaining?
  • How do you help me keep muscle while I lose weight?

Warning signs to walk away from

Be wary of a prescription after a short online form with no bloodwork, one medication and one dose schedule for everyone, no body composition check, pressure to commit on the first visit, and no plan for what happens when you stop. Before-and-after photos with no named clinician are another red flag.
