Benefits of Semaglutide in Sugar Land

Dr. Shel Wellness & Aesthetic Center in Sugar Land offers semaglutide injections for weight loss. It’s an FDA-approved medication branded as a miracle weight loss drug, backed by science and years of research.

The following are the benefits of using semaglutide for weight loss:

Efficacious in all types of patients

There is evidence that semaglutide significantly impacts weight loss in overweight and obese patients with or without type 2 diabetes.

Reduces appetite and feelings of hunger

The action of semaglutide is to increase satiety, resulting in a reduction in food cravings and feelings of hunger. That means adhering to your meal plan (reduced calorie intake) is easier.

Boosts metabolism

Combining semaglutide and lifestyle changes facilitate weight loss by promoting a faster metabolism and burning more fat.

Long-term results

Studies have shown that patients taking semaglutide continued to lose weight when they reduced calorie intake and increased physical activity.

Convenient use

Taking semaglutide once a week is all you need to do! It comes in a single-use injection pen, so the dosage is already calculated for you!

Improves overall health

By losing and maintaining weight, you reduce your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. You can live a healthier life with semaglutide!

How Does Semaglutide in Sugar Land Work?

As part of our comprehensive weight loss and management program, Dr. Shel in Sugar Land, TX, offers semaglutide injections that will help you lose weight regardless of your eating habits, how you feel about food, or if you are unable to lose weight.

This FDA-approved weight loss drug is a game-changer! Researchers found that semaglutide caused weight loss of 15% in adult patients. That’s a staggering 35 pounds on average!

Although semaglutide was originally designed to control blood sugar in diabetic patients, it has also been shown to reduce body fat in healthy individuals!

As a weight loss drug, semaglutide works through several mechanisms:

  • Suppresses the appetite
  • Increases satiety
  • Reduces food cravings and feelings of hunger
  • Delays gastric emptying (the rate at which the stomach empties)
  • Stimulates insulin secretion to regulate blood sugar

Semaglutide is best combined with proper meals and regular exercise to achieve maximum weight loss results. Studies have shown that patients (with and without diabetes) can lose between 9.6% and 17.6% of their body weight!

You can improve your health with semaglutide! It reduces the risk of obesity-related health conditions, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, kidney damage, and heart disease.

Semaglutide is scientifically proven to help reduce appetite and slow gastric emptying, making it easier for you to control your weight when combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle changes. Take your first step toward a healthier you with semaglutide injections today!

What to Expect After Semaglutide in Sugar Land?

In contrast to “one-size-fits-all” approaches, we provide all patients with a custom plan tailored to their individual needs.

At our Sugar Land clinic, we will give you a thorough consultation about your concerns and needs. We will also carefully review your medical history to determine if semaglutide for weight loss is right for you.

Dr. Shel and her team might order laboratory testing to better understand your health. She will also determine the dosages and frequencies that are most suitable for each individual.

Semaglutide is administered once weekly under the skin under the upper arm, stomach, or thigh via convenient injectable pens.

Using semaglutide may vary from person to person, but it works best when combined with reduced calories and regular exercise. Our holistic approach to weight loss has helped many patients lose weight.

Common Questions About Semaglutide

An FDA-approved once-weekly injection, semaglutide helps obese and overweight individuals lose weight safely and effectively when used with proper diet and regular exercise.

Our goal is to help you lose weight gradually and steadily (about three to five pounds per week), so you can keep it off. Studies have shown that semaglutide can help you lose 15% and 20% of your body weight.

Different mechanisms make semaglutide effective at losing weight. It mimics a hormone in the brain that controls appetite and food intake. As a result, it reduces cravings, suppresses appetite, and induces satiety.

This weight loss medication is administered in an injection pen once a week by subcutaneous injection. The dose is adjusted as your weight loss program progresses.

Depending on the individual, your weight loss results may vary depending on how your body responds to semaglutide.

In general, semaglutide is a safe, FDA-approved medication for weight loss. However, as with all medications, potential side effects can occur. The most common side effects include nausea, heartburn, vomiting, constipation, headaches, tiredness, and dizziness.
