FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is semaglutide and how does it work?
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist originally developed for type 2 diabetes. It works by mimicking the gut hormone GLP-1, reducing appetite, slowing digestion, and improving insulin response to support significant weight loss.
How much weight can I expect to lose?
Clinical data shows an average loss of 15–20% of body weight, though individual results vary. Weight loss is gradual and progressive over 6–12 months with proper adherence to the program.
Are there side effects with semaglutide?
Common side effects include nausea, constipation, and mild fatigue — especially early in treatment. These typically resolve as the body adjusts. Our medical team monitors and adjusts your protocol to minimize discomfort.
How is semaglutide administered?
Semaglutide is given as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection. We teach you to self-administer comfortably at home and adjust the dosage gradually to optimize tolerability and results.
