About This Treatment

What is semaglutide and how does it cause weight loss?

Semaglutide (brand names Ozempic® and Wegovy®) is an FDA-approved GLP-1 receptor agonist that directly reduces appetite, slows gastric emptying, and improves insulin sensitivity.

Unlike older weight loss medications that worked through stimulants or willpower, semaglutide works at the neurological level, activating GLP-1 receptors in the brain that regulate hunger and satiety. Patients consistently report significant reduction in appetite, reduced food "noise," and feeling full faster. In the STEP clinical trial, patients lost an average of 15% of body weight over 68 weeks. At Florida Aesthetics, all semaglutide programs are physician-supervised with regular check-ins to monitor progress and adjust dosing.

  • Overweight (BMI ≥27 with weight-related condition)
  • Obesity (BMI ≥30)
  • Insulin resistance and pre-diabetes
  • Metabolic syndrome
  • Weight regain after previous weight loss

Common Questions

Semaglutide Weight Loss, Frequently Asked Questions
