SEMAGLUTIDE
ABOUT
Semaglutide is an injectable medication designed to regulate and control appetite, especially for weight management purposes. Semaglutide achieves this by activating receptors for glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), a hormone naturally present in the body. Its mechanism involves reducing the release of glucagon and boosting insulin secretion in response to elevated blood glucose levels.
When incorporated into a balanced diet and regular exercise regimen, Semaglutide has demonstrated efficacy in supporting weight loss and fostering a healthier lifestyle for both men and women. It facilitates weight reduction by enhancing the sensation of fullness, promoting a faster and prolonged feeling that ultimately contributes to weight loss.
Embarking on a weight loss journey can be both challenging and intimidating. Medications like Semaglutide can play a valuable role in your weight management plan when overseen by a certified medical professional committed to helping you achieve your overall health and aesthetic goals. Successful weight loss interventions typically involve a combination of medication and lifestyle adjustments, including increased physical activity and dietary modifications.
Administered through weekly subcutaneous injections into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm, Semaglutide for weight management offers a convenient and practical approach to supporting your weight loss efforts.
We offer both compounded semaglutide and branded Ozempic at Benicia Medical Aesthetics.
