Medically-guided weight management that works with your body, not against it.
Struggling with stubborn weight that resists diet and exercise can affect your confidence and well-being.
When traditional weight loss methods fail despite your best efforts, it can be frustrating and disheartening. At REAL Wellness & Aesthetics in Arlington, we offer physician-supervised Semaglutide therapy as part of a comprehensive approach to weight management. This FDA-approved medication works with your body's natural processes to help you achieve sustainable results.
What is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is an FDA-approved medication that belongs to a class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists. It works by mimicking a hormone that targets areas in the brain that regulate appetite and food intake. When administered as a weekly injection under medical supervision, Semaglutide helps reduce hunger, increase feelings of fullness, and support weight management goals.
Who Can Benefit from This Treatment
Semaglutide therapy may be appropriate for adults with weight management challenges who meet certain medical criteria. Our team conducts comprehensive assessments including detailed health history and laboratory testing to determine if this treatment is right for you.
Adults with a BMI of 30 or higher, or adults with a BMI of 27 or higher who have weight-related health conditions.
Individuals who have struggled to achieve or maintain weight loss through diet and exercise alone.
Those seeking a medically supervised approach to weight management with ongoing professional support.
How Semaglutide Injections Works
Semaglutide therapy works by activating receptors for a hormone called GLP-1, which plays a key role in regulating hunger and satiety. This helps reduce appetite, slow stomach emptying, and support more mindful eating habits, all under careful medical supervision.
