Our medical weight management program at Maison De Zen is designed for patients seeking physician-guided support for weight loss and long-term metabolic health. Located in Brooklyn, NY, our approach is grounded in clinical evaluation, evidence-based care, and individualized treatment planning rather than generalized or trend-based solutions. We begin every patient journey with a detailed consultation to review your medical history, current medications, risk factors, BMI, and personal objectives. This allows our medical team to identify contributing factors, such as metabolism, hormonal influences, lifestyle habits, and underlying medical conditions, that may affect weight. Treatment appropriateness is determined during consultation, and not all patients are candidates for every component of the program.
Following this assessment, an individualized care plan is developed to align with your clinical profile and long-term objectives. When clinically appropriate, your plan may include metabolic assessment, nutrition guidance, lifestyle modification, support for appetite regulation, body composition monitoring, and medication-based therapy. Recommendations are based on clinical appropriateness and safety, ensuring that treatment decisions are individualized rather than standardized. Maison De Zen functions as a structured medical practice, not an injection-only clinic, and patients receive support across the full scope of medically supervised weight management.
Ongoing physician monitoring is a central component of the program. Sustainable progress requires a flexible, long-term approach, with periodic evaluations to ensure your plan evolves as your health, weight, and goals change. During regular follow-up visits, our providers review progress, assess clinical markers, and refine your treatment plan as needed. This structured approach helps address plateaus, supports adherence, and ensures that care remains aligned with your goals over time. Maintenance planning is incorporated as patients progress, since weight management requires long-term lifestyle support rather than a defined endpoint.
For patients evaluated for semaglutide, tirzepatide, or other injectable weight management therapies, treatment recommendations are based on medical history, current medications, risk factors, BMI, and overall clinical appropriateness. Not all patients are candidates for injectable weight management therapies. When prescribed, these medications are integrated into a broader medical plan that includes nutrition, lifestyle, and ongoing physician monitoring.
At Maison De Zen, the focus is on evidence-based, sustainable progress. We prioritize realistic expectations, consistent monitoring, and ongoing physician oversight to support both weight reduction and metabolic health. The program is designed to support gradual weight loss and improvements in markers of overall health, such as blood sugar control, lipid levels, and cardiovascular risk factors. Results vary based on individual factors, adherence, and clinical response.
Schedule a consultation to discuss your goals and determine whether our medical weight management program is appropriate for you.

Medical weight management is a physician-supervised, evidence-based approach that evaluates metabolic, hormonal, and health factors beyond basic diet and exercise. Plans are individualized and adjusted over time based on clinical review, with the program addressing nutrition, lifestyle, appetite regulation, and body composition rather than a single intervention.
Treatment appropriateness is determined during consultation. The program may be suitable for individuals who have difficulty losing weight or have weight-related health concerns, though not all patients are candidates. A medical evaluation determines whether the approach aligns with your medical profile and goals.
Medication is not required for all patients and is only considered when clinically appropriate. For injectable weight management therapies such as semaglutide or tirzepatide, recommendations are based on medical history, current medications, risk factors, BMI, and overall clinical appropriateness. If prescribed, medications are carefully monitored and adjusted based on your response.
Follow-up visits are typically scheduled regularly, especially in the early stages of treatment. These visits support ongoing physician monitoring, track progress, review clinical markers, and allow for adjustments to your care plan.
The program duration varies based on individual goals and progress. Weight management requires long-term lifestyle support, and maintenance planning is incorporated as patients progress. Some patients participate in a short-term program, while others continue with structured maintenance and physician monitoring.
Results vary based on individual factors, adherence, and clinical response. The program focuses on gradual weight loss, improvements in metabolic health markers, and sustainable long-term outcomes rather than rapid or guaranteed results.

Hi, I’m Arlene Mortley, a licensed aesthetician and founder of Arlene Antoinette Skincare located in Brooklyn, NY. I offer high-quality, result-oriented custom skincare treatments and the Arlene Antoinette signature line of medical-grade skincare products.
Skincare has been a lifelong passion of mine. My love of skincare began as a young girl, watching my mom each night as she sat on a stool at her dressing table to put her special cream on her face. I couldn’t wait until I was grown up and could do the same. Born and raised in St. Andrew, a part of the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, in the heart of coffee country, the women in my family have always emphasized the importance of healthy skin.
Today, I hold a diploma in Aesthetics from The Christine Valmy International School and am a licensed aesthetician, as well as a certified medical aesthetician. My expertise includes advanced training in skin biology, chemical peels, lasers, microneedling, and various anti-aging modalities and technologies. While I treat all skin types and tones, my early training revealed a significant gap in addressing the needs of skin of color, especially when it involves chemical peels and other types of skin resurfacing treatments. This realization inspired me to actively seek specialized knowledge to better cater to this demographic. Skincare treatments for skin of color are more complex, requiring tailored approaches. I am passionate about educating and serving this often-overlooked segment of the skincare industry, as I believe in the importance of personalized solutions for optimal results.
Another passion of mine is providing safe, personalized spa treatments to individuals with or recovering from cancer. I am Oncology Trained, a certification earned through Oncology Esthetics™ facilitated by Touch for Cancer. It gives me pure joy to bring a smile to their faces.
I enjoy educating my clients on effective skincare practices and continuously strive to stay updated on the latest insights and techniques for addressing common issues associated with skin of color, which include hyperpigmentation & discoloration, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), acne & skin sensitivity. To ensure that I remain at the forefront of advancements in this field, I diligently attend multiple medical conferences, industry trade shows, and continuing education courses each year, enabling me to adapt to emerging techniques and technologies. Today, my clientele is as diverse as the population of New York City. I’m proud to offer affordable, medical-grade skincare treatments in a relaxed, spa-like atmosphere.
