medical weight management

Weight gain can be caused by insulin resistance, genetics, hormone changes, lack of physical activity, and overeating. The medication semaglutide imitates a hormone that promotes the production of insulin, decreasing blood sugar levels and slowing digestion.

This process decreases hunger and cravings, preventing overeating and allowing the body to reset and return to a healthy state by losing excess weight. Semaglutide is injected with a small needle into the subcutaneous tissue (a deep layer of the skin that contains fat cells). Semaglutide can aid in weight loss with proper diet and physical activity.
