Pros & Cons

HealFast

What we like

  • Every plan price is listed on the treatment pages before you answer any questions
  • The price is the same at every dose, and supplies, clinician messaging and 2-day shipping are included
  • Your card is only held at checkout and is charged only if a clinician prescribes treatment
  • Names its medical group, Arora Health & Aesthetics, and discloses which founding physicians hold shares
  • Prepaid 6 and 12-month plans bring semaglutide down to $135 or $99 a month
  • Publishes a phone number you can call or text, plus email support

Watch-outs

  • The $99 and $149 prices are first-month offers; semaglutide then renews at $199 a month and tirzepatide at $299
  • The lowest monthly rates need 6 or 12 months paid upfront, and the annual plan is a 12-month commitment
  • The compounding pharmacy that fills prescriptions is not named anywhere on the site
  • The full health questionnaire comes after checkout, so you enter a card before a clinician sees your history
  • The About page still shows placeholder text asking for the company history to be confirmed
  • The LegitScript seal on the site could not be matched to a LegitScript record, and there is no Trustpilot profile
  • Medication is non-refundable once dispensed, and a missing package must be reported within 24 hours of delivery

NewSelf

What we like

  • Semaglutide+ from $99.97/mo — among the lowest prices in the dataset
  • All dosages at the same price — no price escalation as dose increases
  • LegitScript certified with 503A licensed pharmacies
  • Third-party potency, sterility, and endotoxicity testing
  • 48 states + Puerto Rico coverage
  • B12/B6 + Glycine enhanced formulations
  • No membership fees

Watch-outs

  • Not available in Mississippi and Louisiana
  • Compounded only — no brand-name options
  • Site also promotes AI health optimization and longevity (broader platform)
