    What is Semaglutide? 

    At Clevens Face and Body Specialists, we are thrilled to introduce our patients to the groundbreaking treatment known as Semaglutide. This revolutionary medication is designed to assist with weight management by regulating appetite and reducing food intake. Semaglutide works by mimicking the effects of a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels and digestion. We are excited to share this innovative treatment with our patients as part of our commitment to providing comprehensive care that addresses both aesthetic and wellness needs.

    Is Semaglutide Right for Me? 

    Book Your Appointment

    It's normal to wonder if any single treatment will meet your needs. Typically, we've found that the procedure is right for those:

    • Struggling with obesity or excess weight
    • Seeking a comprehensive approach to weight management
    • Looking for a medication that can complement their existing healthy lifestyle
    • Interested in a treatment with proven efficacy and safety

    How It Works 

    Semaglutide works by mimicking the action of GLP-1, a naturally occurring hormone in the body that helps to regulate blood sugar. By activating GLP-1 receptors, semaglutide helps to lower blood sugar levels, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce appetite by activating receptors in the brain that regulate appetite and food intake. 

    Patients typically administer the medication via a once-weekly injection, and our team will provide comprehensive guidance on proper administration and monitoring. We are dedicated to ensuring that each patient is fully informed and comfortable with their treatment plan, and we will be with you every step of the way.

    Semaglutide Recovery 

    Following the administration of Semaglutide, patients may experience mild side effects such as nausea or vomiting. Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions and support to help manage any potential discomfort and ensure a smooth recovery process. We are committed to providing personalized care that extends beyond the procedure itself, and our team will be available to address any concerns or questions that may arise during the recovery period.
