The verdict

Higher Editors' Rating: CoreAge Rx

CoreAge Rx edges out eMI Aesthetics on the Editors' Rating, 94 to 33 (A vs C). Mothers who want to know the real monthly cost before the free trial talks them into it — one flat price on semaglutide or tirzepatide, everywhere in the country, with no lock-in.

eMI Aesthetics is still a genuine option — an AI simulator will show you your future body before you have spoken to anyone. Prices are now listed too, though only as "starting at" figures with no billing period: semaglutide from $119, tirzepatide from $202, oral semaglutide from $179, and brand-name Ozempic from $1,299 and Zepbound from $1,399. Its FAQ says "as low as $179/month", which does not match the $119 on the same page. The homepage still promises "FDA-approved medications" above a program list that is all compounded. Weigh the six factors below against your own priorities.

CoreAge Rx

Editors' Rating 94/100 · Grade A

What we like

  • Flat all-in price that doesn't step up after month one — the number you sign for is the number at the full dose
  • Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on a single account, so a molecule switch never resets the budget
  • Licensed in all 50 states — care survives a move, a deployment, or a summer at the grandparents'

The caveats

  • Not the rock-bottom sticker price — a bare teaser tier elsewhere can look cheaper for exactly one month
  • Compounded only; no FDA-approved brand Wegovy or Zepbound if that is what you and your clinician want
  • A general metabolic program, not a dedicated women's or maternal-health clinic

eMI Aesthetics

Editors' Rating 33/100 · Grade C

What we like

  • Lists a starting price for every product, including brand-name Ozempic and Zepbound
  • Publishes program lengths clearly at four, twelve, twenty-four and fifty-two weeks
  • Offers a lower-dose path alongside the standard one and labels which is which

The caveats

  • No price says what period it covers, and the FAQ's "as low as $179/month" does not match the $119 semaglutide price on the same page
  • "FDA-approved medications from trusted pharmacies" sits above a program list that is entirely compounded; only the separately listed Ozempic and Zepbound are FDA-approved
  • The intake runs on a third-party telehealth platform, so the company you buy from is not the one that treats you
