What Is Medical Weight Loss?
Medical weight loss is a science-backed approach that integrates dietary changes, supplements, medications, and treatment options to help men and women safely and quickly reach their ideal weight. When we design weight management treatment plans for our patients, we work with their regular healthcare providers throughout the process. We aim to promote adjunct wellness treatments with our health-promoting programs and non-conventional testing. Unlike unrealistic diets or quick-fix solutions, medical weight loss offers a sustainable and scientifically backed pathway to improved overall health. Our approach looks at the underlying reasons for weight gain, such as insulin resistance or hormonal imbalances to help you lose weight and keep it off.
Advanced Therapies
Compounded GLP-1s and GLP-1/GIPs
Compounded GLP-1s and GLP-1/GIPs are prescription weight-loss medications that have taken the weight-loss world by storm. Compounded GLP-1s mimic a natural hormone in the body (glucagon-like peptide-1) to control appetite, blood sugar and gastric emptying, while compounded GLP-1/GIPs have a dual-action effect on glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptors, leading to more substantial weight loss in some patients.
Both medications work similarly, but compounded GLP-1/GIPs stimulate two satiety hormones simultaneously, while compounded GLP-1s stimulate only one. These medications are game changers because they focus on helping you develop healthier eating habits. Many clients who take these medications report a healthier relationship with food without having the constant nag of cravings.
At Southeast Aesthetic + Wellness, we offer compounded versions of these medications. You will be informed during your initial consultation if this medication is a safe option for you. We see that most of our clients either do not have medical coverage for weight loss therapies or do not meet the criteria for coverage. This is where a safe alternative decision is made during your consultation. Please understand that these medications are to be taken very seriously, and we do not offer any therapies to anyone under the age of 18 or to individuals who aren’t overweight.
Peptide Therapy
At around age 30, the body’s natural human growth hormone (HGH) production starts declining for both men and women. Peptide therapy intends to replace this loss or decline of HGH by using compounds called peptides to stimulate HGH production. While results may vary from patient to patient, clinical studies have shown that peptide treatment can lead to a range of physical and mental benefits, such as:
- Increased lean body mass
- Enhanced fat reduction
- Increased energy
- Improved strength and endurance
- Increased vitality
- Accelerated wound healing
- Improved cardiovascular and immune function
- Better sleep quality
- Improved bone density
- Improved skin quality and higher collagen density
You may see some of the quicker results mentioned above within a few weeks of time, but to see real results with the therapy, you need to continue it for at least three to six months.
