Medical Weight Loss

 We offer medically supervised treatment with semaglutide and tirzepatide.

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics the GLP-1 hormone. It helps

regulate appetite, increase feelings of fullness, slow digestion, and support blood-sugar regulation.

Tirzepatide works through the GLP-1 and the GIP pathway. 

When activated, the GIP

pathway helps support the body's insulin response to meals and plays a role in

regulating glucose and nutrient metabolism. 

Together, the GLP-1 and GIP pathways

can influence appetite, fullness, blood-sugar regulation, and how the body processes

energy.

The most common side effects of semaglutide and tirzepatide are gastrointestinal and

may include:

 Nausea

 Vomiting

 Diarrhea

 Constipation

 Abdominal discomfort

 Bloating or fullness

 Indigestion or reflux

 Decreased appetite

 Fatigue

We can't control our genetics, but we can take charge of our lifestyle to help maintain a healthy weight.

Both medications may help support weight loss as part of a comprehensive program

that includes appropriate nutrition, physical activity, and medical supervision.

Your provider will evaluate your health history, medications, goals, and individual needs

to determine which treatment is best for you

• Stay Hydrated - Drinking plenty of water and eating foods with a high water content helps keep the body's connective tissue supple and strong. 
• A Healthy Diet - A well-balanced diet, rich low-fat foods such fruits, vegetables and fiber help maintain a healthy weight and supports healthy bodily functions.  Avoid too much sugar and salt. Sugar gets stored in fat cells causing them to expand, and sodium causes fluid retention - both worsen the appearance of cellulite. 
• Exercise -  regular activity can  improve your weight loss outcome. Exercise firms and tones muscles, boosts circulation, tightens the skin and assist in  fat burn. 
• Quit Smoking  - Smoking causes a myriad of health issues, but it also weakens connective tissues by slowing blood flow and disrupting collagen production, allowing underlying fat to show more prominently.

Medical weight management is not a guarantee of weight loss or specific results.

Individual results may vary. Medication decisions are made based on medical

evaluation and individual circumstances.

These medications are not appropriate for everyone. 

Semaglutide and tirzepatide

should not be used by individuals with a personal or family history of medullary

thyroid carcinoma (MTC), Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2)

or known severe hypersensitivity to GLP 1s. 

Your provider will review

contraindications, precautions, potential benefits, and risks before treatment.

Prescription weight-management medications should only be used under

appropriate medical supervision and according to your individualized treatment

plan.
