How Does Medical Weight Loss Work?
At Pretty Special Medspa, the eight-week medical weight loss program begins with an initial consultation where medical professionals will conduct a thorough medical assessment and physical examination, discussing your current health status, medical history, and specific weight loss goals. This information helps them design a personalized weight loss plan that typically includes a tailored nutrition and exercise regimen, along with weight loss injections. Throughout the program, follow-up appointments ensure that any necessary adjustments are made to align with your weight loss goals. At the end of the program, the team at Pretty Special Medspa will provide support and guidance to help you maintain your new, healthier weight. Weight loss injections may include:
- Semaglutide: The program may incorporate semaglutide injections, originally developed to help manage blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Semaglutide works by triggering the brain's response to feeling full, thereby reducing hunger and food cravings. These injections are administered once a week under the skin, usually in the stomach, thighs, or upper arms, and are often part of a treatment plan lasting 5 – 6 months.
- Tirzepatide: Another injectable option is tirzepatide, also initially used to control blood sugar levels. This peptide aids weight loss by signaling the brain to feel full, reducing food intake, and slowing digestion to prolong the feeling of fullness.
