About Better MedSpa
Better MedSpa publishes no pricing online and does not specify formulation, so cost and details have to be confirmed with the clinic. The physician-led Lincoln Park practice in Chicago sells medical weight loss and body contouring, with telehealth across Illinois. It prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide in oral and injectable form plus liraglutide as a daily injection, delivered to patients' doors statewide. Medical director is Dr. Brett Brechner, DO, and the practice blends in-person care with Illinois-wide telehealth.

Better MedSpa
What we like
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Better MedSpa
Watch-outs
- You only see a price after finishing the medical intake, so you cannot compare costs before sharing health information
- Not included in the monthly price: medication
- Serves only 1 states, so check that yours is one of them
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
Henry Meds
What we like
- The monthly price includes the medication, clinician visits and shipping
- We found no FDA warning letters issued to Henry Meds
Watch-outs
- Semaglutide costs $249 a month, 35% above the $185 median for compounded semaglutide across the sellers we compare
- You only see a price after finishing the medical intake, so you cannot compare costs before sharing health information
- Confirm it serves your state before you start the intake
- Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription before you pay, so you can check its license
- Its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
Our Verdict
Henry Meds wins this one, 5.5 to 3.9, above all for an oral route if you will not self-inject. Better MedSpa fits better if a published list of the one state it serves, when most sellers publish none is your priority.
