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

Semaglutide FAQs - Brisk Wellness in Chester
Is Semaglutide safe for weight loss?
Yes, Semaglutide has received FDA approval for weight loss and is a trusted treatment option when used under the care of a licensed healthcare provider.
Only available by prescription, Semaglutide can be prescribed by a skilled weight loss professional. At Brisk Wellness, we focus on your safety and well-being by carefully assessing if this treatment is right for you. Our team will work closely with you to develop a customized plan that suits your specific weight loss needs, ensuring a safe and effective experience.
Am I a good candidate for Semaglutide in Chester?
The FDA has recommended Semaglutide for adults in Chester who are 18 years and older with a BMI of 27 kg/m² or above, especially if they are dealing with weight-related health conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or Type 2 diabetes. Additionally, individuals in Chester with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or more can use Semaglutide for weight loss, even without any other health conditions.
That said, if you reside in Chester and have a history of gallbladder disease, multiple endocrine neoplasia Type-2 syndrome, or thyroid cancer, Semaglutide might not be suitable for you. It’s important to speak with a healthcare provider to see if this treatment aligns with your overall health and weight loss aspirations.

Throughout the treatment, we keep track of your progress and adjust your plan as needed to ensure Chester residents achieve safe and effective results on their weight loss journey.
How soon will I see results with Semaglutide injections?
For many individuals, early signs of progress are noticeable within the first few weeks, with long-term weight loss typically becoming more evident over several months. However, personal goals, lifestyle factors, and medical conditions can all play a role in shaping your unique journey.
Your body’s response to Semaglutide will vary based on several factors, including your age, metabolism, daily habits, and overall health. While many patients see significant improvements in both weight and A1C levels relatively quickly, your results will depend on your individual circumstances and your commitment to the process.
How are the injections administered?
What should I do if I miss a dose?
Do I need to follow a specific diet with Semaglutide?
Are there any side effects with Semaglutide?
When starting Semaglutide, some individuals may experience mild side effects like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, heartburn, constipation, or mild stomach discomfort. These symptoms are typically temporary and can be managed by following your personalized treatment plan and allowing your body time to adjust.
To make the transition smoother, treatment begins with a low dose of 0.25 mg. This gradual introduction helps your body get used to the medication, reducing the chance of discomfort. As you progress, your dose may be gradually increased, with a maximum of 2.4 mg if needed, to ensure the best results with minimal side effects.
How long should I take Semaglutide?
Weight loss is a personal journey, and the length of Semaglutide treatment is personalized to meet your specific needs. Your treatment plan will be tailored to your goals, lifestyle habits, and any weight-related challenges you might face. As your body adjusts to the medication, we’ll closely monitor your progress and adjust the plan as needed to ensure the best results. Some patients reach their target weight sooner, while others may need a bit more time to see lasting changes.
During your consultation, we’ll talk through your weight loss expectations, estimate a treatment timeline, and adjust your plan to keep you moving forward every step of the way.
