Semaglutide Injections in Phoenix, AZ

Struggling with weight loss takes a toll on your physical and mental health — especially if you have a body mass index (BMI) outside the healthy range. Semaglutide injections are FDA-approved for chronic weight loss management. By mimicking the effects of a hormone that controls how the brain processes appetite and insulin production, semaglutide injections decrease your appetite, making you feel fuller for longer and regulating blood sugar levels. This results in weight loss.

Originally used for patients with diabetes, semaglutide was found to have dramatic weight loss properties. It also reduces patients’ risk for cardiovascular issues.

Dr. Jennifer Boll is a highly skilled, board-certified plastic surgeon in Phoenix, Arizona, who will provide comprehensive assessment on your eligibility for this weight-loss drug.

How Are Semaglutide Injections Administered?

Your Semaglutide Injection Consultation

Your consultation with Dr. Boll determines your eligibility for semaglutide injections. Dr. Boll will order blood work before reviewing all current medications, medical history, and personal weight loss goals. Once your blood work is reviewed and Dr. Boll determines your eligibility for semaglutide injections, she will order your injections.

The Semaglutide Injection Process

Semaglutide injections are administered weekly into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. You will be taught how to administer your injections at home, or if you are uncomfortable doing so, a member of Dr. Boll’s staff can inject you once weekly for a small fee. If you choose to inject at home, you must contact the office once monthly so that Dr. Boll can monitor your dosage and progress.

What to Expect After Semaglutide Injections

Recovery

There is no downtime associated with semaglutide injections, although some possible side effects include nausea, vomiting, constipation, and stomach pain.

Dr. Boll will begin your treatment with a small dosage before slowly increasing it to avoid many side effects. You should also practice eating small meals and drinking plenty of water to reduce these risks and increase comfort.

Improved Habits

In addition to your semaglutide injections, you must eat a fibrous diet, such as fruits and vegetables, and small, high-protein meals to aid in easier digestion. Additionally, you should avoid alcohol and high-fat foods.

As you start to feel more energized, it will be easier to engage in exercise, helping your weight loss results.

Results

Combined with healthy lifestyle changes, patients can see an average of 14.9% body weight loss. Additionally, you may experience a reduced risk of inflammation, lower blood pressure, regulated blood sugar levels, and increased energy.

Can semaglutide help me keep the weight off?

You can keep the weight off by maintaining the healthy habits and exercise program that you developed while you were taking the medication. Patients with obesity typically have difficulty with mobility and energy levels, which can contribute to their struggle to lose weight. As semaglutide increases energy, reduces weight, and increases mobility, you will be able to work out with less difficulty. Take this opportunity to change your lifestyle and make exercise part of your daily routine. Once you stop taking semaglutide, you should be able to maintain your results through healthy choices.
