Request an AppointmentWhat Is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analog that was approved in 2020 as a treatment for improving glycemic control in patients with Type 2 diabetes. It has since shown great promise for patients struggling with weight loss. Studies have demonstrated that Semaglutide reduces appetite, improves control of eating, and reduces food cravings, in addition to improving glycemic control.
How Semaglutide Works
GLP-1 is a hormone produced in the small intestine that stimulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion, helping lower blood sugar while also signaling fullness to the brain — which is what helps reduce appetite and cravings for many patients.
Is Medical Weight Loss Right for You?
Weight-loss results vary based on your treatment plan, starting weight, medical history, nutrition, activity level, and response to treatment. A consultation is required to determine whether medical weight-loss treatment is appropriate for you. Our team may also recommend complementary services like Spectracell testing or hormone therapy if underlying imbalances are contributing to weight challenges, and can pair your program with guidance on movement and activity to support your results.
