How Semaglutide Helps You Succeed on Your Weight Loss Journey
When paired with healthy lifestyle changes, Semaglutide can help you achieve and maintain effective, lasting weight loss.
This medication works by emulating GLP-1, a hormone that influences the brain’s regulation of appetite and eating. This hormone, GLP-1, is naturally produced in the gut to let the brain know when you’re full.
Apart from signaling appetite reduction, the hormone also slows digestion, leading to longer-lasting fullness.
When your brain thinks your stomach is satisfied, you feel less inclined to eat soon, resulting in a lower daily food intake. You’ll be less tempted to snack, avoiding empty calories that can hold back your weight loss progress.
Semaglutide injections, taken once a week, are part of an overall weight loss program that, with diet and exercise, supports healthy weight achievement.
You can lose more weight with Semaglutide due to its longer duration in the body than the GLP-1 hormone that occurs naturally. As a result, you will have a prolonged sense of fullness and experience fewer cravings.
Is Semaglutide Treatment Right For You?
To experience the best results with Semaglutide, patients must first confirm that they meet the eligibility requirements for this advanced medical weight management program.
To lose excess weight with Semaglutide, your body weight, health conditions, and lifestyle choices can all be contributing factors. The following are vital factors that can have an effect on your personalized approach to reducing calories and reaching your weight loss goals at your chosen pace.
Body Mass Index
The FDA has outlined guidelines to endorse the use of Semaglutide for weight loss management. A patient’s Body Mass Index (BMI) must meet one of the following criteria for it to be an effective choice:
A patient whose BMI is 30 kg/m² or greater can be classified as a suitable candidate for this weight loss drug.
Individuals with a BMI of 27 kg/m² or above who also have symptoms of weight-related health concerns, including high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or Type 2 diabetes.
Overall Health Factors
Other than the patient’s BMI and any weight-related health conditions, age, medical history, and lifestyle habits can also greatly influence how effective Semaglutide is as a weight management solution for reaching weight goals.
Individuals with certain health issues, like gallbladder disease or a history of pancreatitis, may be unable to take Semaglutide for weight loss. Diet and exercise are key components of any Semaglutide weight loss program. Physical activity and selecting low-fat dietary options while avoiding sodium and artificial ingredients are important steps.
A Semaglutide program lacking a diet and exercise component will lead to much slower progress for patients aiming for specific results.
How Fast does Semaglutide Work?
Because each patient is different, there is no set timeframe for individuals using Semaglutide for weight loss. On average, some patients may start to notice results in about four weeks. This is based on a variety of specific factors unique to the patient in question, not on all individuals who take Semaglutide for weight loss.
This is why Semaglutide starts with low doses; the body requires time to adjust to the medication and any mild side effects, like nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. A lower dosage can help lessen the chances of experiencing these symptoms.
As the body becomes completely acclimated to the medication, dosages may be increased over time, allowing the brain's receptors to effectively manage appetite and reduce food intake.
As the treatment advances, you may notice differences in your weight that can motivate you on your weight loss journey. Regular exercise and a healthy diet are crucial for success. Semaglutide injections are tailored to meet your needs and pace. Our staff will support you throughout the process to ensure a safe, healthy, and effective path toward your weight loss goals.
Reaching your weight loss goals is a gradual process that may take time. At Total Skin and Wellness, we offer a carefully designed weight loss program that is personalized for your individual needs. The Semaglutide weight loss program is tailored to each person, ensuring that all patients receive the specialized care they require when using this groundbreaking medication.
