How Does Semaglutide Work for Weight Loss?
Semaglutide mimics the hormone that is released in your gut in response to eating called the GLP-1 hormone. This hormone prompts the human body to produce more insulin to help reduce blood sugar. It’s been used for years to treat Type 2 diabetes. In higher doses, the hormone interacts with your brain to suppress your appetite. It causes weight loss in conjunction with diet and exercise.
Semaglutide Injections for Weight Loss
Semaglutide is injected weekly for weight loss. We work with you to determine whether you are the right candidate for the slimming shots. Most of our patients have seen positive results with a reduction in appetite, improved mood, better sleep, and increased confidence levels. Semaglutide medication is not given in large doses for weight loss because we want to lower the frequency of side effects.
How Fast Does Semiglutide Work for Weight Loss?
Like any weight loss treatment, results may vary between patients. Semaglutide typically helps patients lose about 15% of their body weight over a period of 68 weeks. If you have a higher BMI, you may lose a larger percentage of your body weight. It takes about two weeks in most patients for the injections to start working. Most patients see results in eight to 12 weeks. It’s essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle for Semaglutide to show optimal results.
