SEMAGLUTIDE (GLP-1) IN ENCINITAS, CA
Weight Loss Program
Achieve your weight loss goals with our semaglutide (GLP-1) program
Are you finding it difficult to lose weight despite your best efforts with diet and exercise?
Our weight loss program features compounded semaglutide, a medication that helps you reduce cravings and consume fewer calories. Semaglutide mimics a hormone that our body’s naturally make known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 targets areas of the brain involved in regulating appetite and food intake to help you feel full longer. Our program is personalized to your unique needs and includes lifestyle, supplement, and exercise recommendations in addition to weekly semaglutide injections at our Encinitas office. This holistic approach offers a more sustainable path to long-term weight loss.

Why Choose Semaglutide
Semaglutide is a powerful medication that was first developed to help manage blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. You might recognize it by the brand names Ozempic and Wegovy—both of which use semaglutide but for different purposes. Ozempic is primarily used for treating diabetes, while Wegovy is approved specifically for weight loss. Even though they are prescribed for different reasons, the active ingredient in both—semaglutide—works the same way to help people lose weight.
Research has shown that semaglutide is highly effective for weight loss. In a major study, people using Wegovy (semaglutide) lost an average of 15% of their body weight over 68 weeks compared to those who didn't use the medication. This makes semaglutide one of the most effective treatments available for weight loss today.
But it’s not just about the weight loss. Semaglutide also delivers important health benefits.
People taking semaglutide experienced improved blood sugar control, better blood pressure, and even a lower risk of heart problems. Beyond the numbers, they reported feeling healthier and more energized, with greater ability to do the things they love. These positive effects have been seen in adults and even in some studies with teens, showing how semaglutide can help people not only lose weight but also improve their overall health and well-being.
