Weight Loss Clinics | Weight Loss Injections

How do our Weight Loss Services work?

Our weight loss services begin with a thorough GP consultation, where we assess your goals, medical history, and lifestyle factors. Our doctors conduct a detailed review of your diet, exercise routine, and other elements that might influence your weight loss journey. Based on this evaluation, a personalised weight loss program is recommended.

If appropriate, your doctor will discuss the risks and benefits of various protocols, which may include weight loss injections, tailored to your specific needs and preferences. We prioritise your safety and well-being throughout the process, ensuring a comprehensive and effective approach to your weight loss goals.

How does Wegovy work?

Wegovy works by replicating a natural hormone that regulates appetite. By curbing your appetite, it encourages reduced food intake, facilitating weight loss. For optimal results, Wegovy is best complemented with a controlled diet and regular exercise routine.

How is Wegovy taken?

Wegovy is available in five different doses. You start with 0.25 mg once a week for the initial 4 weeks to allow your body to adjust. From Week 5, the dose increases to 0.5 mg weekly, then to 1.0 mg, and if necessary, to 1.7 mg and eventually 2.4 mg. Once you reach 2.4 mg, you maintain this dosage for the rest of your treatment:

Weeks 1-4: 0.25 mg weekly

Weeks 5-8: 0.5 mg weekly

Weeks 9-12: 1.0 mg weekly

Weeks 13-16 (or later): 1.7 mg weekly

Weeks 17 onwards (or later): 2.4 mg weekly

Wegovy vs other weight loss injections

Wegovy and Saxenda are distinct weight loss injections, differing in their active components: Wegovy contains semaglutide, while Saxenda contains liraglutide. Despite this, both medications regulate appetite to aid weight loss. While limited studies compare them, one research indicates Wegovy may offer superior long-term weight loss compared to Saxenda.

Ozempic is another brand name for semaglutide, which can be used for treating type 2 diabetes. Current guidance is clear that Ozempic should only be prescribed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes to protect supply for diabetes patients. It should not be prescribed solely for weight loss.
