Create A Better You With Weight-Loss Solutions From The Semaglutide Clinic in Miami, FL

For most adults, being overweight is a physical issue that can greatly affect their way of life. Aside from their appearance, many who suffer from rapid weight gain also discover that the build-up of excess fats can cause more serious complications with their cardiovascular system, mobility, and bone density. In addition, the pressure of that excess weight can strain their joints and eventually lead to inflammation, making it uncomfortable and painful to even engage in regular activity.

Although engaging in regular exercise and eating a well-balanced nutritional diet can help adults lose weight, there are times when adhering to such a regimen is not always enough to help achieve their desired goals. In some cases, adults still have a great deal of difficulty with their weight management despite their efforts to exercise and eat healthier. Of course, this has prompted many in the medical field to question whether or not other underlying issues within our bodies can cause obesity. After years of research, physicians have now discovered that regulating certain hormones can have a considerable part to play in how we experience chronic weight gain.

The best way to regulate your hormones and achieve your weight loss goals is to use weight-loss injections created with hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Attending a nearby weight loss clinic can help provide you with various HRT options to manage your weight as you can continue to exercise and adhere to your daily diet. 

At the Slim Weight Loss Clinic in Miami, FL, we utilize several types of hormone injections to help you lose weight. Our medical professionals will study your physiology and create a comprehensive wellness plan incorporating a customized exercise and diet program that you can easily manage as you progress through our medicated weight-loss treatment. By using medicated weight-loss injections, patients can finally reduce their body fat and build lean muscle mass to reach their desired weight and improve their overall health.

What Medications Are Used for Weight Loss at Semaglutide Clinic in Miami, FL?

If you are an overweight adult, then there’s a good chance that you have tried the typical OTC weight-loss drug. However, the problem with most weight loss pills is that they are rarely designed to regulate the specific hormones that are necessary to stimulate fat loss. And to make things worse, weight-loss supplements usually contain additives that can cause unhealthy side effects and ultimately hinder your progress. The safest way to effectively achieve healthily, medicated fat loss is to introduce specific hormones into the body to regulate your appetite and control how food calories are processed during digestion. Out of all of the injectable medications used for weight loss, physicians have found the glucagon-like peptide (GLP) Semaglutide to be the most effective in helping patients suppress their appetite, burn fat and lose weight.

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that can mimic the GLP-1 hormone, which helps the pancreas release the proper amount of insulin to maintain healthy glucose (blood sugar) levels. As that occurs, the insulin produced also helps transfer glucose to other body tissues and convert it into energy, making it easier to exercise and burn through excess fats produced by overeating. In addition, by affecting GLP-1 receptors in the brain and controlling appetite, Semaglutide can also slow down gastrointestinal motility, which is responsible for digestion, thus making you feel full after eating small portions and effectively suppressing your appetite.

Depending on your physiology and weight loss goals, hormone specialists may prescribe two types of Semaglutide for weight loss: Wegovy and Ozempic. Typically, Ozempic is designed to help patients with Type 2 diabetes manage their insulin and blood sugar levels so they can treat and improve their condition. However, since Ozempic can lower high blood sugar levels, it can also make it easier to burn fat and lose weight. In contrast, Wegovy is a generic version of Ozempic, specifically designed to help overweight and obese patients improve their weight management, so losing weight is more manageable with exercise and dieting. 

However, even though they serve different purposes, both medications promote weight loss and can be used as an effective fat-burning weight-loss treatment when administered as a weekly weight-loss shot.

How Semaglutide Injections Work

By using Semaglutide injections as a part of weight loss treatment, patients can slow down the movement of food through the stomach and decrease their appetite, which can help them eat less and lose weight. Semaglutide injections are typically produced as a liquid solution and come in pre-filled dosing pens that are injected once a week subcutaneously (under the skin) in the fatty areas of the body such as the thigh, upper arm, or lower abdomen. To obtain the best results, patients should administer Semaglutide injections on the same day every week for consistency. Patients will also need to rotate injections regularly to avoid irritation and swelling at the injection site. Based on your initial evaluation, your physician will determine the best dosage level for your medical weight loss injections and how long you will need to remain on treatment to achieve an effective rate of injectable weight loss. 

How Much Weight Can I Lose?

Since every patient’s physiology is inherently different, weight loss results can vary depending on the individual case. However, in clinical studies, over 50% of patients who used Semaglutide as an injectable medication for weight loss have typically been shown to lose 5% to 10% of their body fat, compared to patients who only lost 5% of their weight after using prescription weight loss pills. 

Patients using Wegovy with a body weight of 200+ pounds or a body mass index (BMI) of 38 saw a 12.4% decrease in body fat, losing 33 pounds after combining Wegovy with their diet and exercise regimen for 15 months.   

Are Weight Loss Injections Safe?

When properly administered, weight-loss injections are typically safe for weight loss treatment. However, as with most medications, Semaglutide injections can cause rare side effects in some instances. For example, patients using diabetes medication may need to avoid administering high doses of Semaglutide as the combination of the medicines can cause dangerously low blood sugar levels and lead to hypoglycemia.  

Patients with a history of thyroid cancer should also avoid taking certain types of Semaglutide like Ozempic, as the medication can increase the risk for thyroid cell tumors. Other patients allergic to Semaglutide and other active ingredients in Ozempic will also need to avoid using Semaglutide medication as part of weight loss treatment. Adults with a medical history of pancreatitis and chronic kidney issues should also avoid taking Wegovy, as using the medication can also increase the risk for those complications. 

You should discuss your medical history and any medications you take for other health issues with your doctor to determine the potential risks of using Semaglutide as a long-term weight loss treatment.

    FAQ

    When will I see the results?

    Every patient’s physiology is inherently different, so the timeframe for results may vary. However, patients using Semaglutide injections for weight loss typically begin seeing results after the first four weeks of treatment.

    How long do results last?

    As long as you continue to use Semaglutide, you will continue to see results. However, patients who have stopped their weight-loss therapy have been shown to regain much of the initial weight they lost during treatment.

    Are there side effects?

    Since Semaglutide affects digestion, several gastrointestinal side effects may occur from long-term use. The most common side effects that patients have reported include fatigue, bloating, stomach pain, constipation, and indigestion.

    Can medical weight loss injections be combined with other treatments?

    Yes, however, it is highly recommended that you exercise caution. Although medical weight loss injections such as Semaglutide can be used in conjunction with other treatments, they can interact differently with certain medications. Therefore, you will need to inform your doctor of any medications that you take for pre-existing conditions so they can determine the safest Semaglutide dosage for you to use with other prescription drugs.
