Struggling to lose weight?
You’re not alone.
According to a recent survey, 68% of men and 60% of women in the UK struggle with obesity being overweight , despite their best efforts to shift the extra pounds and get back in shape.
If the fad diets and crazy exercise routines haven’t helped, we’ve got the solution you’ve been looking for:
Weight loss injections.
When used in conjunction with a healthy, calorie-controlled diet and exercise regimen, weight loss injections have helped thousands of people achieve their weight loss goals and live much happier, healthier lives.
Today, our expert weight loss consultants will walk you through the different weight loss injection types, and which would be best for you!
Ozempic
Ozempic is the brand name for Semaglutide, which originally was developed to help people struggling with type-2 diabetes manage their condition.
With one weekly injection, Ozempic weight loss injections mimic the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1 (Glucogen-like peptide-1) which is what makes us feel full after eating – helping suppress your appetite and control cravings for effective weight loss.
Ozempic also slows down the process of food leaving the stomach, meaning you’ll stay fuller for longer and be able to reduce the amount of calories you consume.
We no longer provide Ozempic, however an alternative to Ozempic that we offer is the Wegovy injections.
Saxenda
Saxenda weight loss injections work similarly to Ozempic and mimic the glucogen-like peptide hormone to regulate your hunger, but rather than a weekly injection, these weight loss injection pens need to be used daily.
This is because it doesn’t last as long as Semaglutide (Ozempic) does, which is why it needs to be taken more often.
Saxenda is one of the brand names for Liraglutide, which is also used as a medicine to help patients manage type-2 diabetes.
Wegovy
Wegovy is another weekly weight loss injection pen that works to suppress your appetite and control your cravings to help you shift excess weight.
This medical weight loss treatment is much more personable, as there are a few different dosages to choose from (0.25mg, 0.5mg, 1mg, 1.7mg and 2.4mg) so you can select the one that will best help you meet your weight loss goals – adjusting this as and when you need to.
66% of patients have been able to lose 10% of their starting weight or more by using Wegovy injections in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise routine that matches your lifestyle and fitness goals. .
