How Semaglutide Works

The semaglutide weight loss treatment is an option for adults seeking to manage their weight. Semaglutide injections work by mimicking the effects of the hormone GLP-1. This plays a crucial role in regulating food intake and appetite.

The initial semaglutide dosage for new patients is relatively low. We’ll slowly increase it over 16-20 weeks to help you get to your desired weight. Typically, patients lose about 15% of their body weight. But unlike surgical treatments, semaglutide isn’t a magic solution for weight loss. Our patients commit to a minimum of three months to see significant changes.

North Shore Medical Wellness patients will be instructed on how to safely administer semaglutide and have regular 3D body scans to track their weight loss progress.

Side Effects of Semaglutide Injections

Semaglutide FAQs

DOES SEMAGLUTIDE WORK FOR GETTING RID OF BELLY FAT?

When paired with a healthy diet and an active lifestyle, semaglutide can help reduce belly fat. Results may differ per person and may depend on factors like age, genetics, sex, and daily habits.

IS MOUNJARO THE SAME AS SEMAGLUTIDE?

Ozempic and Wegovy are brand names for semaglutide. Mounjaro works similarly to these but isn’t the same. Unlike Ozempic, Mounjaro acts on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors. Both are suitable for Type-2 diabetes patients.

IS SEMAGLUTIDE BETTER THAN MOUNJARO FOR WEIGHT LOSS?

Researchers recently compared a lower 1mg dose of semaglutide to the highest dose of Mounjaro. Some experts say this comparison isn’t fair because if the full 2.4mg dose of semaglutide had been used, the results might have been more similar.
This study was also focused on diabetes treatment, not weight loss. The maximum approved dose for semaglutide for diabetes treatment was 1mg at the time of the study. Since then, it’s gone up to 2mg per week (Ozempic)—similar to the 2.4mg dose (Wegovy) [2].
Consult with North Shore Medical Wellness to determine the best course of action for your weight loss goals.
