An anti-obesity medication used for long-term weight management. It is a peptide similar to the hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). It can be administered by subcutaneous injection or taken orally.
Semaglutide works by activating GLP-1 receptors in the brain, which in turn helps to reduce hunger and increase feelings of fullness. This can lead to lower caloric intake, making it easier to adhere to a healthier diet. Additionally, semaglutide slows the rate at which food leaves your stomach. This not only helps you feel full for longer but also contributes to improved blood sugar control. At TONE Medical Aesthetics, our team will provide personalized guidance for a successful journey with semaglutide.

Once the desired benefits are achieved, the goal is to gradually taper off semaglutide. The ultimate aim is to empower individuals to take control of their health and well-being, fostering independence from weight loss medications in the long run.
Semaglutide is suitable for adults with obesity or overweight conditions, particularly those who have struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise alone. A consultation with our medical team will help determine if it’s the right choice for you.
Semaglutide is typically used as a temporary intervention to help you reach your weight loss goals. Treatment duration varies based on individual progress, but many patients use it for several months to achieve optimal results.
Clinical studies show that patients can achieve significant weight loss—often 15% or more of their body weight—when combining semaglutide with healthy lifestyle changes. Results may vary based on individual factors.
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation. Most side effects are mild and tend to diminish over time. Part of your treatment plan will include avoidance and management of any potential side effects.
We encourage you to adopt a healthy diet and exercise regimen to maximize the effectiveness of semaglutide and ensure long-term success. For some, this may include changes to their current diet and exercise schedule, however if you already have these established you may continue with what you’re doing!
