BURN Gut
Because "my stomach is just like that" was never true.

What is BURN by The Face Loft?
BURN is The Face Loft’s wellness program for the things you can’t see in the mirror but feel every single day.
Every BURN journey starts with one appointment: a sit-down with a provider who listens to your symptoms, tests what needs testing, and maps out exactly what your personalized BURN should include, whether that’s medical weight loss, hormone support, gut health, or a combination. Labs and body composition testing are added when appropriate. This customized approach creates a unique protocol for you, your goals and your body.
What is BURN Gut?
BURN Gut is a provider-guided approach to digestive health built on one principle: test, don’t guess.
Your gut is home to an entire ecosystem of microorganisms called the microbiome, and it influences far more than digestion. It helps regulate nutrient absorption, hormone production, immune function, mood, skin health, and even how your body holds onto weight. When your gut is off, everything feels off.
The goal isn’t managing symptoms forever. It’s identifying the root cause and treating it, so your gut starts working with you again.
BURN Gut is part of the full BURN ecosystem.
If your results point to a hormone imbalance or your goals include weight loss, your provider can fold in other modalities to support your overall wellness.
When your gut is off, everything feels off.
BURN Gut helps find out why:
- An in-depth conversation first. You sit down with a provider and walk through your symptoms: the bloat, the gas, the reflux, the irregularity, the food reactions, the fatigue that follows meals.
- Advanced stool testing, collected at home. We use the GI Effects Comprehensive Stool Profile, an advanced test that evaluates the three pillars of gut health: how well you digest and absorb your food, markers of inflammation and immune function (including calprotectin and secretory IgA), and the balance of your microbiome, from beneficial bacteria to yeast, parasites, and potentially harmful organisms. Collection is simple and private, completed at home and shipped to the lab with prepaid materials.
- Targeted add-ons when your symptoms call for them, such as H. pylori testing, markers of gut barrier function, and IgG food antibody testing that screens your immune response to 87 foods with a simple finger stick.
- A personalized protocol, built from your results. Because your microbiome is as unique as your fingerprint, your provider reviews your report with you and creates a plan that may include targeted nutrition changes, supplementation, treatment of specific organisms, and follow-up testing to confirm your gut is healing.
- The full BURN ecosystem. Gut issues rarely travel alone. If your results point to a hormone imbalance or your goals include weight loss, your provider folds BURN Hormones or BURN Body into the same roadmap.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
BURN Gut may be right for you if you struggle with:
- Bloating, gas, or abdominal discomfort after meals
- Indigestion, reflux, or cramping
- Constipation, diarrhea, or unpredictable digestion
- Suspected food sensitivities you’ve never had tested
- IBS or ongoing GI symptoms you’ve been managing on your own
- Skin concerns like acne, rosacea, or eczema that may trace back to gut health
- Fatigue, brain fog, or mood changes that seem connected to how you eat
- Weight that won’t respond, even with real effort
Research continues to link gut health to conditions well beyond the digestive tract, which is why testing can be revealing even when your symptoms don’t feel like “gut problems.” A consultation will tell you whether BURN Gut is the right starting point.
Why Choose The Face Loft?
Test, don’t guess. Your protocol is built from a comprehensive stool analysis reviewed by your provider, so treatment targets what your results show.

Convenient, private collection. Your sample is collected at home on your schedule. Your follow-up happens face to face.
Whole-body thinking. Gut, hormones, weight, energy, and skin are one connected system, and at The Face Loft all of it is treated under one roof in one coordinated plan.
Two convenient locations. Cranberry Township, minutes north of Pittsburgh, and McMurray in the South Hills.

START HERE: YOUR BURN STARTS TODAY
Starting is one appointment. Book the BURN Starter: sit down with a provider, describe what you’ve been living with, and leave with a plan, including whether comprehensive gut testing is your right first step. Your collection kit can be sent home with you, and your results review is scheduled before you walk out the door.
Why now? Because you’ve already spent months (years?) googling symptoms and rotating foods out of your life. One test replaces all of that guessing with a detailed map of what’s happening in your gut. Patients who start today are often eating comfortably and feeling like themselves again within a season, and every one of them says the same thing: I should have done this sooner.
Don’t be the person still bloated next year. Be the one who started today.
Good skin. Good Vibes.
