New weight loss treatments are introduced to the medical world every day – but few have been as successful as semaglutide. This scientifically-backed injectable has changed the lives of countless patients who have struggled with obesity and weight management, and has proven to be safe and effective for many.
Semaglutide was designed to mimic the action of the GLP-1 hormone, which plays a key role in regulating fullness and insulin release.* In most cases, it is self-administered in weekly injections. Patients who couple semaglutide with a healthy diet and active lifestyle are often able to enjoy advantages such as:
- Significant weight loss (often around 15% of initial body weight)
- Regulation of appetite
- Improved glucose levels
- Long-lasting results
Our Sacramento plastic surgeon has seen firsthand how semaglutide can improve a patient’s quality of life. It has been an incredible adjunct to our body contouring procedures, such liposuction and abdominoplasty. That said, Dr. Perry urges patients to understand that the treatment isn’t for everyone. Speaking with a qualified medical professional can provide deeper insights into how semaglutide can be tailored to your specific health profile and weight loss goals.
