Semaglutide Q&A

Healthy eating and exercise are critical parts of losing weight and keeping it off. But what if they haven’t been quite enough? Many people struggle with losing weight and frustration can set in when you feel like you’ve tried your best to make it happen but still haven’t seen optimal results. If this is the case for you, you may want to consider using Semaglutide treatments. By targeting the brain’s appetite control center, Semaglutide can help reduce hunger and cravings, reducing calorie intake and increasing weight loss.

Have you struggled to lose weight and keep it off? We all know diet and exercise are the key to weight loss but in some individuals, these efforts are not enough. Here at Pure Bliss Med Spa in Atlanta GA, we offer Semaglutide treatments as an option for weight loss. Semaglutide is a pharmaceutical product that has been made available as a daily or weekly injection made initially to treat type 2 diabetes but is now commonly used as a weight loss medication. Its key function is to aid the body in reducing blood glucose levels when diet and exercise haven’t worked. Studies have shown that Semiglutide injections have also assisted clients in losing weight due to the injection suppressing one’s appetite. Semaglutide has been licensed for weight loss/management and can be prescribed by a licensed practitioner if they believe that it is the right product for you.

How Semaglutide Injections Work?

Semaglutide injections can be used by adults who have struggled to lose weight with diet and exercise alone. The FDA-approved weight loss drug works by mimicking the hormone GLP-1, which helps to regulate appetite and food intake. By affecting these hormones, Semaglutide helps slow down the emptying of your stomach and reduce your blood sugar levels, effectively helping you feel full for a longer period. Studies have shown that Semaglutide has resulted in significant weight loss, and it is generally well-tolerated. It is typically used as part of an extensive weight loss program to help individuals improve their overall health.

Who Semaglutide Injections Are For?

Semaglutide is available to treat adults, both men and women, who are obese or overweight. It has also been FDA approved for weight loss in adolescents (ages 12 to 17) struggling to adopt healthy eating habits and physical activity due to various conditions. If you are an individual who struggles with the following, then you are a candidate for Semaglutide injections:

  • Adults who are obese - A BMI of 30 or more
  • Adults who are overweight - A BMI of 27-29
  • Adults who have at least one weight-related comorbid condition such as hypertension, diabetes type 2, or hyperlipidemia
  • Adolescents 12 years and older with a BMI in the 95th percentile or greater

Benefits of Semaglutide

With Semaglutide gaining much popularity it is important to know if you are a good candidate and the benefits of this injection. A key benefit is to help lose weight and keep the weight off in clients who struggle with being obese or overweight. In a clinical study for Semaglutide done over the course of 56 weeks, individuals with an average body weight of 198lb lost an average of 10lb with a monthly injection of Semaglutide. All patients taking Semaglutide injections lost more or less 5% of their initial starting weight within these 56 weeks. This means that if you started treatment weighing 200 lbs, you should lose around 30 lbs within weeks.

Semaglutide will not only help you achieve a comfortable weight that may not have felt attainable before but also a restored or new self-confidence that everyone deserves. Trying Semaglutide injections will help your inner self just as much as your outer appearance, and that is the true benefit for all. The weight loss and improved health caused by Semiglutide aids in physical and mental health, Improves self-esteem, reduces anxiety and depression, and improves cognitive function. Clients benefit from a reduction in body weight, a lower body fat percentage, an improved energy level, and an increase in exercise tolerance. Weight loss lowers your chances for chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension and improves the prognosis of individuals living with these comorbidities.
