Our 12 week weight loss program at Aphrodite Laser Skincare consists of the following:
Semaglutide is a once weekly injectable medication – FDA approved that is used, in conjunction with diet and exercise, to assist with weight loss and blood glucose regulation.
During your consultation our medical doctor will review your medical history and health goals. Often times lab work is required and we will send it over to your preferred lab.
You will come in for a quick injection with one of our medical providers on a weekly basis.
To keep weight off, we recommend taking the following steps:
Semaglutide works by mimicking the hormone GLP-1, which regulates appetite and targets the brain’s appetite control center. It suppresses appetite and increases insulin production, while inhibiting the production of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar levels. This leads to lower blood glucose levels and reduced appetite. As a result, Semaglutide is a powerful tool for weight loss when combined with a healthy diet and exercise.
Semaglutide is not recommended with the following conditions:
• diabetic retinopathy, a type of damage to the eye from diabetes
• low blood sugar
• disease of the gallbladder
• acute inflammation of the pancreas
• decreased kidney function
• medullary thyroid cancer
• multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2
• family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma
• kidney disease with likely reduction in kidney function
The most common side effects of Semaglutide are nausea and vomiting. These side effects are usually mild and go away after a few days or weeks of treatment. Other possible side effects include diarrhea, constipation, headache, dizziness, fatigue, and low blood sugar levels.
