Beyond weight loss.
Full-spectrum longevity.
The Longevity Programme combines GLP-1 therapy, personalised peptide protocols, expert dietitian support, and continuous body composition tracking — built for patients who want to optimise how they age, not just how they weigh.
What Is It?
Medicine that looks further than the scale.
Most weight loss programmes measure success in kilograms. The Longevity Programme measures it differently: in muscle retained, biological age, cellular energy, hormonal function, and the gap between how old you are and how old your body acts.
It's built for two kinds of patient. Those who've completed Elevate and want to continue optimising — now that the weight is moving, they want to build the rest of the picture. And those entering Rho specifically because they want to age well, not just weigh less.
The result is Rho's most sophisticated protocol: every clinical tool we have, working together around one patient and one goal.
Weight loss, medically optimised
GLP-1 therapy, dietitian support, and InBody tracking — a comprehensive weight loss programme with full clinical oversight.
Everything in Elevate, plus your peptide protocol
Adds a fully personalised peptide protocol — designed around your biology, your biomarkers, and your specific longevity goals. The complete picture.
Four pillars. One integrated plan.
Every element of the Longevity Programme works together — each pillar informs the others, and your doctors adjust the whole picture as your results evolve.
Pillar One
GLP-1 Therapy
Your GLP-1 protocol is individualised from the first appointment and refined continuously. In the Longevity Programme, GLP-1 therapy does double duty — driving weight and fat loss while also supporting metabolic health markers including insulin sensitivity, blood pressure, and cardiovascular risk.
Pillar Two
Personalised Peptide Protocol
Your peptide protocol is designed specifically for you — based on your health goals, bloodwork, body composition data, and how you're responding to treatment. We select from our formulary (BPC-157, Ipamorelin/CJC-1295, GHK-Cu, TB-500, NAD+) and build a combination that addresses your specific gaps.
Pillar Three
Clinical Nutrition Support
Your Nutrition House dietitian works alongside your physician — not separately. They interpret your InBody data, design your nutrition approach around how GLP-1 medication changes your appetite and digestion, and adjust your plan as your body composition shifts throughout the programme.
Pillar Four
Body Composition Tracking
Weight is a blunt instrument. InBody scans give us the full picture every quarter — skeletal muscle mass, fat mass, visceral fat level, total body water, and phase angle, which is a direct indicator of cellular health. We use this data to calibrate every other element of your protocol.
Full Inclusions
Everything in the R7,000 monthly fee
Your Longevity membership covers the full clinical infrastructure of your care. Medication costs — GLP-1 and peptides — are sourced separately through a compounding pharmacy, as they vary by protocol and dose.
Everything below is included in your monthly fee, without add-ons or surprises.
Monthly doctor check-in
Virtual or in-person with Dr Adè or Dr Pauli — progress review, protocol adjustment, prescription renewal
Personalised peptide protocol design
Your combination and dosing are built by your doctor and reviewed regularly as biomarkers and body composition evolve
GLP-1 prescription and management
Ongoing titration, side effect management, and prescription renewals for your GLP-1 therapy
Nutrition House dietitian sessions Optional add-on
Longevity patients access Minette and Rosey at preferential Rho rates — available to add to your programme at any time. Not included in the base monthly fee.
Quarterly InBody body composition scan
In-person at Sandton Gate — muscle mass, fat mass, visceral fat, phase angle, and longitudinal tracking
WhatsApp doctor access
Direct clinical messaging between appointments — for questions, side effect concerns, and protocol guidance
Side effect management
Rapid-response support if side effects arise — no waiting until your next scheduled check-in
Straightforward pricing, no surprises
Bloodwork
Baseline and ongoing bloodwork is not included. Your doctor will advise on which tests to run and when — typically through your GP or a private pathology lab.
Payment
Monthly fees are billed at the start of each month via EFT or card. The programme begins once your initial consultation is complete and your protocol is designed.
