What are weight loss injections?

Weight loss injections are prescription medications that help you lose weight by mimicking the action of GLP-1, a hormone that suppresses hunger and helps you feel full longer. These injections target the brain's hunger control centers, making it easier for you to eat less and stay on track with your weight loss goals.

Am I a candidate for weight loss injections?

Your eligibility for weight loss injections is determined during your initial consultation at Prestige Weight Loss Clinic. Typically, these injections are prescribed for adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher or a BMI of 27 or higher if accompanied by weight-related health issues such as diabetes or high blood pressure. Adolescents aged 12 to 17 with obesity may also be considered for FDA-approved weight loss injections. A reduced-calorie diet and regular exercise are essential components of your treatment plan.

How do I take weight loss injections?

The administration of weight loss injections varies based on your prescription. Some injections are taken daily, while others are taken weekly. At Prestige Weight Loss Clinic, we provide you with an injectable pen and teach you how to self-administer the medication. Whether using a multi-dose or single-dose pen, we ensure you're comfortable with the process and monitor your progress closely. You'll start with a low dose, gradually increasing it as needed under the guidance of our medical professionals. Weight loss injections can be a long-term treatment, and you may continue using them as long as necessary. If weight loss injections aren't effective or cause side effects, our team will work with you to explore other options, such as weight loss medications or appetite suppressants.
