Over 10-12 months, individuals on a weekly Semaglutide regimen may experience an average weight loss of 12-20% from their initial body weight, making it a promising solution for those committed to a lifelong program.

Who is a Candidate for Semaglutide?

Semaglutide usage is approved for weight loss in individuals aged 12 and older. It is suitable for those with a BMI >/ 30 or a BMI of 25-29 with comorbidities and cardiovascular risks commonly associated with conditions like Hypertension and type 2 Diabetes.

Semaglutide is not intended for weight loss solely for cosmetic reasons. Before initiating the medication, it is important to have a thorough physical examination, including medical and family history.

Guided Weight Loss from Medical Experts

Regular medical evaluations are part of our weight loss program to ensure that individuals are monitored closely by healthcare professionals.

How Semaglutide Works

Semaglutide is a mimic of the GLP-1 hormone. It impacts appetite regulation, food intake, and cravings, providing a non-surgical gastric bypass effect by delaying gastric emptying.

Semaglutide Administration

There are painless weekly subcutaneous injections of Semaglutide, typically administered in the abdominal wall using an insulin needle.

Are there Side Effects?

There are common side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, and headache, in over 5% of patients. However, these effects are manageable.

Who is Not a Candidate

Individuals with a personal or family history of Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 (MEN 2). A comprehensive history and examination should be taken before beginning weight loss injections.
