Medically Supervised Weight Loss

A Cutting-Edge Approach to Success

If weight gain has taken a toll on your body image and you’re finding that rigorous diet and exercise routines aren’t yielding successful results, you’re not alone. Losing weight can be challenging for anyone, but reaching your health goals and maintaining them for the long term is possible. At Epic Esthetics, we offer medically supervised weight loss with semaglutide, a prescription weight management medication that helps curb hunger, reduce overeating and enhance fullness with a series of injections. Under our medically supervised program, we will carefully calibrate your semaglutide treatment regimen to optimize your results while prioritizing your overall health and wellness.

Medically supervised weight loss with semaglutide can help:

  • Aid in weight loss and weight management

  • Reduce food cravings

  • Enhance fullness after eating

  • Regulate blood sugar levels

About Your Experience

When you arrive for your consultation, we will first determine whether you’re a suitable candidate for our semaglutide weight loss program. You must meet certain body mass index (BMI) and health requirements to be prescribed this medication. If you do qualify for our program, our team will be with you along the way to keep track of your progress and adjust your treatment regimen as needed.

Getting Your Best Results

To be successful with semaglutide for weight loss, it’s crucial to stay committed and consistent with your injections. Semaglutide injections need to be self-administered once a week on the same day of each week. Another way to see your best results is to pair your semaglutide treatments with a healthy lifestyle of frequent exercise, a well-balanced diet, stress management and high-quality sleep.

FAQ: Medically Supervised Weight Loss

in Greensboro, NC

FAKE

Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA). As an injectable medication, it is used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes as well as long-term weight management for certain adults with a BMI considered above the healthy range.

Semaglutide works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone that is naturally released in the gastrointestinal tract in response to eating. The GLP-1 hormone prompts the pancreas to produce more insulin, which lowers blood sugar levels, while inhibiting the production of glucagon, which raises blood sugar levels. When prescribed for weight management, semaglutide can help reduce caloric intake by curbing appetite and increasing feelings of fullness for longer periods of time.

Those who are taking any blood sugar-lowering medications, are pregnant or nursing, have a family history of thyroid cancer, have a personal history of pancreatitis or liver disease, or do not meet the BMI requirements, should not take semaglutide. To determine whether semaglutide is the right weight loss treatment for you, we will assess your blood work, medical history, BMI and other factors during your personal consultation.
