How
Semaglutide Works

Semaglutide mimics a natural hormone in the body to help regulate appetite and blood sugar levels. It works by activating areas in the brain responsible for hunger and satiety (feelings of fullness), helping you feel full with smaller portions and reducing overeating.

This treatment involves a once-weekly injection that can be administered at home or in the clinic, depending on your preference. With consistent use, Semaglutide potentially helps promote gradual, sustainable weight loss, paired with guidance to support your overall health goals

What To Expect During
Your Appointment

At Brisk Wellness, your first appointment begins with a comprehensive evaluation. Your board-certified physician will discuss your weight management goals, review your medical history, and determine if Semaglutide is the best option for you.

If Semaglutide is recommended, we will explain how to administer the injections at home and create a personalized plan tailored to your needs. You also have the option of receiving injections in person at our clinic. 

Regular follow-up visits will track your progress and adjust the treatment as needed. These appointments also include ongoing support for diet and exercise changes to help you get the most from your treatment.

Potential
Side Effects

Semaglutide is generally well-tolerated, but some individuals might experience:

  • Mild nausea or upset stomach, especially at the start of treatment
  • Temporary fatigue or dizziness
  • Changes in bowel habits, such as constipation

We will address any side effects and make adjustments to help keep you comfortable throughout
the process.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Is Semaglutide safe for weight loss?
Yes, Semaglutide is FDA-approved for weight loss and has been proven safe and effective when prescribed and monitored by a healthcare professional.
Available by prescription only, Semaglutide must be prescribed by a licensed medical weight loss practitioner and our team at Brisk Wellness makes your safety our number one priority by first determining that you are a qualified candidate for this revolutionary weight-loss medication. Based on your particular weight loss struggles and goals, we then develop a personalized treatment regimen to ensure your weight loss journey is completely safe and effective.
The FDA has recommended Semaglutide for adults 18 years and up with a body mass index (BMI) of 27 kg/m² or greater and diagnosed with one or more weight-related medical conditions such as high blood pressure, Type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. Adults with a body mass index of 30 kg/m² or higher may benefit from Semaglutide for weight loss without any accompanying medical conditions.
Patients with a recent diagnosis or medical history of conditions including gallbladder disease, multiple endocrine neoplasia Type-2 syndrome, or thyroid cancer are not good candidates for Semaglutide.
Each patient receives a personalized Semaglutide treatment regimen designed specifically for his or her weight loss goals. We will develop the right treatment plan for you by incorporating your lifestyle habits, including food intake and physical activity, your overall health, and your particular weight loss objectives. We monitor your progress and adjust the plan as needed to ensure you achieve your ideal results.
Many individuals notice changes within the first few weeks, with steady weight loss typically occurring over several months. But every patient has different goals and setbacks preventing him or her from reaching those goals, so the results of one individual may be very different from yours.
A variety of factors contribute to how a patient reacts to Semaglutide treatment. These can include age, weight, lifestyle habits, and the overall health of the individual and while many of our patients have enjoyed weight loss and reduced A1C levels in just a few weeks, your results may vary.
Semaglutide injections are given once a week. We will show you how to administer them at home or provide the injections in the clinic. We typically administer the first at the clinic while you can self-administer further injections at home and it’s important to ensure that you are completely comfortable with the self-injection method. You have your choice of injection sites to help make you more confident with weekly dosing, these include your thigh, your upper arm, and the abdomen.
If you miss a dose, contact us for instructions on how to proceed. Consistency with the injections is key to achieving optimal results.
Semaglutide works best when combined with healthy eating and regular physical activity. We will offer guidance to help you make lifestyle adjustments that complement the treatment. Eating right and maintaining a robust exercise regimen are both crucial for reaching your weight loss objectives and maintaining your ideal weight for the long term going forward.
Side effects from Semaglutide include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, heartburn, constipation, and mild abdominal discomfort. Although these are considered common, most patients find they are able to avoid these symptoms by faithfully following their personalized treatment regimen.
You will start your treatment plan with a low dose of the medication at 0.25 mg which allows your body to fully acclimate to the drug and reduce the likelihood of experiencing these side effects. As your weight loss journey continues and the medication is having the desired results, your dosage levels may increase from 0.25 mg to 2.4mg, based on your progress, in order to gain the full benefits of your Semaglutide treatment.
Since each patient is different, the timeframe for treatment may vary. Your treatment regimen is developed based on your weight loss objectives, barriers to success, and other contributing factors.. But as we monitor your progress to examine how your body is reacting to the medication, that timeframe may change and adjustments made to the dosing levels prescribed. Some patients may reach their weight loss goals in a shorter period of time while others may need to continue with the treatments for longer.
When you come into the clinic for your consultation, we will review your weight loss goals and expectations, provide an estimated timeframe for your Semaglutide treatment regimen, and reassess the duration of treatment based on your results.
