Medical Weight Loss

At UBEST Medical Aesthetics in Akron, we offer innovative treatments utilizing compounded peptides such as Semaglutide for weight management. The FDA-approved injectable medication is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1). Semaglutide for weight loss mimics the action of the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1, which is responsible for regulating appetite and increasing insulin production. Doing so helps reduce hunger, control blood sugar levels, and promote weight loss. This treatment option is suitable for individuals with a BMI body of 30 or higher or patients with a BMI of 27 or higher accompanied by at least one weight-related medical condition, such as Type 2 diabetes or hypertension. Results from this treatment are typically noticeable within a few weeks to a few months, depending on individual factors such as metabolism and adherence to the treatment plan. The effects of this compounded medication can be long-lasting when combined with lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise.

FAQS:

Semaglutide is a prescription medication originally developed to manage type 2 diabetes. It works by mimicking a hormone called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) that regulates appetite and food intake. By enhancing feelings of fullness and reducing hunger, Semaglutide helps facilitate weight loss.
Semaglutide is suitable for adults who are struggling with obesity or are overweight with related health conditions. It is typically recommended for individuals who have not achieved sufficient weight loss through diet and exercise alone. A medical evaluation is necessary to determine if Semaglutide is appropriate for your specific health needs.
Semaglutide is administered as a subcutaneous injection, usually once a week. The injections are typically done at home after receiving training from a healthcare provider. The dosage and treatment plan will be customized based on individual needs and progress.
Most individuals can expect to lose a significant amount of weight over time with Semaglutide. Clinical studies have shown that participants can lose 10-15% of their body weight or more. Results vary based on individual factors such as adherence to the treatment plan and lifestyle changes.
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation. These side effects often lessen over time as the body adjusts to the medication. Rare but serious side effects may include pancreatitis or thyroid tumors. It is important to discuss potential risks and benefits with your healthcare provider.
The duration of Semaglutide treatment can vary based on individual weight loss goals and health conditions. Some may use it long-term as part of a comprehensive weight management program, while others may use it temporarily to achieve their weight loss targets. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider will help determine the appropriate length of treatment.
