Aesthetic Solutions, Inc. is launching a new service: Compounded Semaglutide Weight Loss Injections.
For those who struggle with weight loss, finding the right solution to lose excess pounds, and keep them off, can be quite the challenge. Not to mention, diets can be frustrating and hard to stick to, causing many people to fail at losing weight altogether. Fortunately, the FDA has recently approved Semaglutide, which is proven to show results, and Aesthetic Solutions, Inc. of Lafayette is excited to now offer this new weight loss therapy.
What Is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a new, FDA approved treatment for managing obesity. Semaglutide belongs to a class of drugs known as GLP-1 Receptor Agonists and Incretin Mimetics. GLP-1s differ from other weight loss medications (like phentermine), as they target key metabolic pathways, resulting in sustainable weight loss. GLP-1s are non-habit forming, stimulant free, and are clinically proven to be the most effective medications for long-term results. Throughout a series of clinical trials, researchers discovered that, unlike the so-called quick fix medications, Semaglutide is an effective approach to weight loss and management.
How does Semaglutide work?
By delaying gastric emptying through glucagon secretion reduction, Semaglutide mirrors the effect of satiety, which improves the control of eating. This delay reduces cravings and appetite, decreasing caloric intake, resulting in weight loss.
Who Can Take Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is recommended for overweight adults and those who suffer from weight related health issues.
Does Semaglutide work well?
A low-dose of Semaglutide (1.0mg), given once-weekly for 12 weeks showed an average of 11 pounds in weight loss. According to the New England Journal of Medicine, more than half of trial participants lost 15% of their body weight, and between 33 and 40 percent lost 20% body weight.
Is Semaglutide safe?
Semaglutide has been proven a safe and effective for treating overweight adults with chronic weight management.
What are Semaglutide’s side effects?
The most common side effects of Semaglutide are gastrointestinal. While 95% of patients find Semaglutide well tolerated, some patients complain of mild nausea, vomiting, and constipation.
Side effects associated with Semaglutide are, generally, easy to manage. Some correspond with the effect of “feeling full” and most can be controlled through proper dosing. Clients of Aesthetic Solutions, Inc. will be medically monitored by Kylie McBribe, NP throughout their Semaglutide weight loss therapy.
Biology’s Weight Loss Weapon
The naturally occurring GLP-1 hormone found in humans helps improve metabolic function and regulate digestion. Semaglutide targets the same receptors as this powerful hormone, help reduce inflammation, and the risks of cardiovascular disease, helping you live a longer, healthier life.
