KICK THE DIETS THAT DON’T WORK

Weight Loss Treatments We Offer

Semaglutide

Our latest program for medical weight loss involves the use of compounded semaglutide injections. Semaglutide is designed for adults who are either obese with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or overweight with a BMI of 27 or higher and experiencing weight-related health issues. It aims to assist individuals in losing weight and maintaining their weight loss. To achieve optimal results, semaglutide should be combined with a reduced-calorie meal plan and increased physical activity. Learn more here

Who is a candidate for semaglutide?

Overweight

Obesity

Excessive Food Cravings and hunger

Semaglutide operates by imitating a hormone in the body called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which specifically targets regions in the brain responsible for controlling appetite. By interacting with these areas, semaglutide aids in hormone regulation, particularly insulin, leading to a significant decrease in blood sugar levels. Consequently, it suppresses appetite and reduces cravings for food.

According to a study, individuals with obesity who were administered a weekly dose of 2.4 mg semaglutide over a period of 68 weeks experienced a weight loss of approximately 15%. However, participants who incorporated "healthy" lifestyle modifications in addition to taking semaglutide managed to lose 20% or more of their body weight.

Why choose semaglutide?

  • Suppresses appetite

  • Smaller food portions satisfy hunger

  • Feel full longer

  • Lowers blood sugar and stimulates insulin

Semaglutide vs The Other Brands


Semaglutide and the other brands are essentially the same medications, sharing identical active ingredients and working in the same way to produce equally impressive results.

However, the key difference lies in the significantly higher cost of the Other Brands, which amounts to 4-5 times the price. This variation can be attributed to the fact that branded drugs encompass the expenses of research, development, marketing, with the actual cost of the medication being a relatively small fraction of the total price.

Furthermore, the majority of insurance plans do not cover weight loss medications, leaving individuals with limited options: either paying a direct cost of $1000-$1500 USD per month or going through a cumbersome insurance appeal process.

We strongly advocate for weight loss assistance to be affordable and easily accessible.
