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 FAQs - Brisk Wellness in Springfield
Is Semaglutide safe for weight loss?
Yes, Semaglutide is an FDA-approved medication for weight loss and is recognized for its safety and effectiveness when used under the supervision of a licensed healthcare provider.
Since Semaglutide is prescription-only, it must be prescribed by a qualified medical professional who specializes in weight loss. At Brisk Wellness, we ensure that each patient undergoes a comprehensive evaluation to determine whether Semaglutide is the best option for them. We then provide a customized plan tailored to your weight loss goals to ensure the treatment is as effective as possible.
Am I a good candidate for Semaglutide in Springfield?
The FDA has approved Semaglutide for adults in Springfield who are 18 years old or older, with a body mass index (BMI) of 27 kg/m² or greater, particularly for those managing weight-related health conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or Type 2 diabetes. For those with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, Semaglutide can be used for weight loss even if there are no other health conditions present.
However, if you live in Springfield and have a medical history of gallbladder disease, multiple endocrine neoplasia Type-2 syndrome, or thyroid cancer, Semaglutide may not be an option. A healthcare provider will be able to help you assess whether this treatment fits your weight loss and overall health goals.
How is my treatment regimen for Semaglutide created?
Patients in Springfield benefit from personalized Semaglutide treatment plans, carefully crafted to support their individual weight loss goals. We assess factors such as your nutritional habits, physical activity, and overall health to design a treatment approach that meets your needs.
We continuously track your progress, making any necessary refinements to ensure that Springfield residents achieve effective and safe weight loss outcomes.
How soon will I see results with Semaglutide injections?
Many individuals experience early signs of progress within the first few weeks, with long-term weight loss generally taking several months. However, factors such as personal weight loss goals, lifestyle challenges, and medical conditions can influence the course of your weight loss journey.
The way your body responds to Semaglutide depends on various factors, including age, metabolism, daily habits, and overall health. While many patients see noticeable improvements in weight and A1C levels within weeks, your results will be influenced by your individual circumstances and 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?
Some individuals may experience mild side effects at the start of Semaglutide treatment, including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, heartburn, constipation, or mild stomach discomfort. However, these symptoms can generally be minimized by adhering to your personalized treatment plan and allowing your body the necessary time to adjust.
Treatment begins with a low dose of 0.25 mg to help ease the transition. This gradual introduction allows your body to acclimate, reducing the risk of discomfort. As your progress is monitored, your dose may be increased, potentially reaching up to 2.4 mg, to ensure the most effective results with minimal side effects.
How long should I take Semaglutide?
Weight loss is a personal process, and the length of Semaglutide treatment is customized to fit your individual needs. Your treatment plan is designed to align with your goals, lifestyle habits, and any challenges related to weight loss you may face. As your body adjusts to the medication, we will monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal results. While some patients reach their target weight more quickly, others may require additional time to achieve lasting changes.
At your consultation, we will outline your weight loss expectations, estimate a treatment timeline, and adjust your plan as needed to ensure you stay on track to reach your goals.
